...OK, so I had a little help ;)
As some of you know, my awesome gifter trillian had Irish Fae send me her Remy extensions (http://forums.longhaircommunity.com/showthread.php?t=95207) for the summer gift swap. :joy:
They arrived on Friday, and here are some pics!
So without the extensions, I'm about .5" away from APL (when my hair isn't being so flippy):

Please forgive the dirty mirror!
Sadly, my little arms are too short to be able to get a proper length shot, and DF skipped town for the day :( Here's a shot of everything pulled over my shoulder:

(I promise I'm not really this pale!)
I wanted to put it all up, but I figured that it would be a terrible idea to use a fork with the tracks clipped in. So, I took out the lowest tracks and pulled it all into a ponytail:

(My arm looks really wide, but I'm just holding out the camera :))
After that, I used spin pins in an attempt to make a cinnabun, but it ended up as more of a (really bad) bee-butt:

It was so scary taking out those spin pins, they managed to get all tangled up and I had an extremely hard time twisting them out!
I love these extensions! They're so much fun and it's awesome to see what I'll look like when my hair finally grows that long! My goal actually used to be BSL, but after playing around with these and seeing how much fun the extra 5 inches is, I'm definitely going to carry on to waist! :cheese: I'm so lucky they match my color, and after a lifetime of hating my "mouse poo brown" hair and wishing it was lighter, I think I actually like the look of long "mouse poo brown" hair, and I'll be keeping my color alllllllllll the way through waist and beyond!
I feel so blessed to belong to LHC with such great gifters like trillian and Irish Fae! :applause
