Fall break came around and I just didn't want to shave. So, naturally a little facial hair appeared on my face. It didn't go away and eventually it was fairly thick. I thought I'd trim and and see how it looked. I thought it didn't look too bad so I left it. At school I was pleasantly surprised with all the good reports I was getting. In fact the dean of the clinic came up to me and proceeded to tell me he thought it looked pretty nice and how his beard never looked good. Somehow, he then told me about his mustache he had in dental school that was thin and looked "awful." So, he colored it red to better match his hair and it actually stained his lip red for a couple of days. Anyway, it always surprises me the attention I get when I do things that are a little more extreme. It was fun, but now it's done. The scratchiness won out in the end. Maybe at Christmas I'll give it a try again.

Mark tried it and looked Amish. The upside to a beard is that if people have never seen you without it, they never know what you really look like!
Brandon gives in to the itchness too. And just in case you wanted my opinion, you look so much better without a beard!!
