Beardfest 2KX

Title pretty much says it all.

Ever since I can remember I wanted to grow a beard. And since my freshman year of college I've held annually an event that I like to call "Beardfest". During Beardfest I go as long as I possibly can without shaving to see if I've become enough of a man to grow a beard. Usually it takes 1-2 weeks to know for sure if my facial hair has what it takes to grow a full, beautiful beard.

Beardfest 2K7 was a miserable failure.

Beardfest 2K8 showed more promise but ultimately ended the same as the year before.

Beardfest 2K9 was cut short due to a series of unfortunate circumstances.

That brings us to Beardfest 2KX, which began on Sunday, March 21st. So far things are sparse, to say the least, but it has only been 3 days so far and it's way too early to tell. I'll keep y'all updated as to how things go.

I don't mean to be pessimistic but I don't have real high hopes for 2KX. Maybe it'll happen but probably not. I'm looking forward to 2K11 and 2K12 to be my years of real growth.

I'll leave you with some of my beard inspiration.

Unfortunately I can't find a single photo of Evan Kirkendall's beard but he's also a huge inspiration for me.

Seacrest out.
