Doubts

I told a few of my colleagues about my plan in shaving my head next Sunday. Many of them were very supportive. However, a handful of them were strongly against the idea and they tried to talk me out of it. I'm not one with a weak mind but I did have my doubts. I felt scared.

I suppose, it's like whenever I go to the http://www.hsa.gov.sg/html/consumer/donorcare.html for a blood donation, I get nervously scared no matter how many times I've done it. The fear is always there. What happens if the needle breaks? What happens if they can't find my vein? What happens if I bruise? What happens if I catch a disease from a non-sterile needle?

So I started to wonder if I should go ahead with the depilation. I called my boyfriend and spoke to him. He was very supportive. He promised that he wouldn't leave me if I went bald. Even if the hair didn't grow back, he would still love and stay with me. Aww... that's mushy but sweet, isn't it?

Call me a chicken but I guess it's ordinary to have such feelings when one is about to go skin-head, especially for a woman. For a guy, it's normal. It even looks good on some guys. I love the actor Billy Zane bald. He looks so much more handsome when he's bald compared to with hair.

ps/ If it's so difficult for me to shave my head willingly, I wonder just how tough it is for a cancer patient who has hers done unwillingly. I don't think I would ever understand...
