Playing



This may sound crazy but one day this week I woke up and decided I wanted change. Not change in the future but change now. Not change for the world but change for me. This change I decided to take was giving myself a haircut.  I woke up and said, “Hey, I’m going to give myself a haircut,” so I did.  Sometimes you just have to do things in the spur of the moment.  Professor Housefield lectured about the importance of play. I use to play all the time when I was younger and I miss those days. I use to frequently play with Barbie Dolls and I use to pretend that I was a hair stylist and cut their hair and style them. I thought I was pretty good for an 8 year old and even considered it as a when I grow up I want to be a hairdresser. So when I woke up that glorious morning I thought about my Barbie Dolls and I missed those days and so inspired by Housefield’s lecture on play, I gave myself a haircut.  But the best part is that I used my hair to make art.  I felt like I needed to fulfill this radical movement for change with some posters. Forget Obama’s ideas for change we all should cut out hair and make posters. I am totally kidding but seriously I think in order to be successful work should feel like play because I believe in investments and we should invest in experiences through play.
