I usually go out whenever I am free with the work. And that's something I have realized that going out kind of helps my life in general. I think it also helps the mental and physical health too. I have however noticed that going out with friends would be helpful as well.

Do you go out often...

When is the last time you changed your hair style?

I was thinking about this the other day because my husband doesn't change his hair style. He did once when he was 18 and his friends teased him but I think they were jealous because it looked really good! Then he went back to his old hair style...
