No-Shave-November (#78.)

It has always been a dream of mine to go an entire month without shaving. Ever since I started shaving my legs, I have wished that I didn't have to anymore (whis is funny, because before that I really wanted to). When I lived in Kansas, I would always get jealous in November when all of the boys wouldn't shave their faces for an entire month. It seemed that it wasn't fair that I was still expected to shave my legs. Where's the justice!? So I decided that just one time I wanted to make it all the way through no shave November (just my legs, mind you). I even convinced a very good friend to participate with me. (This is on my list because I wanted to do it, but I figured I never would after I get married.)
There isn't much to say about the act of not shaving, except that I accidentally started about a week and a half early. However, when all was said and done, my legs didn't look to bad. Most girls told me that my legs looked about as hairy as thiers do after about a week of not shaving. My friend (who shall remain unnamed so that she doesn't get too embarrassed) was not quite so lucky as to have fair/thin leg hair. However, she still made it the entire month too.
December 1st was a party. We made the necessary Wal-mart run to buy waxing strips (yes, I did wax my legs for the first time in my life). We also stocked up on beverages and chocolate. I was pleasantly surprised to find that waxing doesn't really hurt at all. We of course took before and after pictures.
About halfway through our waxing, our good friend Kevin stopped by. We took the liberty of wasting one wax strip on his leg. He was a good sport about it and is currently walking around with a hairless strip on his left leg.
All in all, this was a wonderful experience, and I'm glad I did it. I actually kind of miss the warmth of having a layer of hair on my legs.
