Cut my hair..don't feel like ME anymore?

Okay, this is a picture of me two days ago:

Now I cut my hair:

When I look in the mirror, I see myself. I see myself..redone. Sort of hard to explain. I look like a happier person, I feel more free..I don't know.

But whenever I look at a picture of myself before I cut my hair..I honestly don't see myself. I freakin hate it. I feel like that is NOT me..when I look at that picture I feel like it is totally someone else. Some kid who I have pictures of. I feel like if I had a picture with me now with my arm around my "old self" it wouldn't look weird in my eyes because I feel so different.

I don't know what it is, but it's pissing me off. I don't care how the new hair looks (I did look better before but that has nothing to do with this). I just hate this damn freakin feeling..and it's so explainable. I know who I am. I'm not confused, but I don't feel like that other guy was me. I have the same attitude, same personality, same hobbies...but I feel so different looking at the picture.

Any idea why or how to forget about it?
