It's still long and we you could pump it and curl it up...it would be really chic and sleek if you blew it out. Plus it's long enough that it wouldn't be an insane change. Would depend on where your layers fall currently though.
LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK!

I don't think I ever figured out how to study, work, and maintain sanity, of course undergrad i worked at a bar so that was good for sanity I suppose and grad school I didn't work just lived off student loans, which is hard on me now, but great at the time.
As far as books finding us at the right times in our lives, I couldn't agree more, always seems like something pops up that is perfect at the time, kinda happens with movies from time to time as well, but mainly books.

Awww congrats on being a new puppy mom!

I am pretty psyched for you. Here is an article I found during research for my own puppy selection moment:
Temperament Test
Knowing how to evaluate a pups temperament can help you pick the best pup in a litter, since research has shown that by six to ten weeks of age the basic temperament a dog will have as an adult is already well formed. These tests can be done on pups from six to eight weeks of age onward. To compute the pups rating, simply put down the score for each test and add them up. A very high score means a strong-willed and outgoing pup; a low score means a shy, fearful pup. A mid to high score is probably the best, since such dogs would be outgoing, but at the same time, cautious and not foolhardy.
These three basic grades correspond to Pavlovs three basic dog temperaments or nervous typologies (the strong, weak, and balanced types respectively).
1. When called, does the pup solicit your attention (10 points), approach you slowly and quietly greet you (5 points), or shy away (2 points)?
2. If the pup is with litter mates, does it push its way out first over other pups to contact you (10 points), come up with one or two others to investigate you (5 points), or stay back and ignore you (2 points)?
3. When petted or picked up, does the pup get over excited (10 points), remain quiet and relaxed (5 points), or freeze fearfully, tremble, or try to escape (2 points)?
4. When you quietly back away, does the pup follow you immediately and solicit attention (10 points), pause and then follow you (5 points), or go off and ignore you (2 points)?
5. Call the pup to you. When it is beside you, clap your hands twice and loudly over its head. Does it ignore the noise and continue to solicit your attention (10 points), cower and become passive and recover quickly (5 points), or freeze and refuse to approach even when you coax it (2 points)?
6. How does the pup respond to toys? Use a yard of stringwith a four-inch piece of towel or paper tied to the end. Drag it past the pup as though it were a mouse hopping by. Score 10 points for an immediate response, 5 points if the pup paws tentatively or crouches and stalks first, or 2 points for no response other than looking at the prey or simply ignoring it.
7. How does the pup respond in unfamiliar places, say outside its kennel or home, in a park, or in a quiet yard? Does it explore actively but with some caution (10 points), does it freeze, cower, or attempt to hide somewhere (2 points), or does it run around wildly exploring things and not calming down quickly (5 points).
Research has also shown a relationship between heart rate and temperament. As mentioned earlier, pups with the highest resting heart rate in a litter tend to be the most assertive and outgoing, while those with the lowest heart rates are the most timid.
