I need a new look??

lately I've been pretty bored with my life and I suffer from depression. I have decided that life is too short to wallow around and not do all the things I once loved. I'm so bored with my life and even though I know a superficial fix isn't going to make it better but I feel like I need a change!! Think of it as a liberation thing. Well my style is really alternative so I don't want to go for anything preppy. I'm thinking a new hairstyle would be nice. Right now I have longish light brown/blondish hair and its just straight with no layers or anything. What kinds of things should I try you know...for a change. What do people do to spice up their life?? Haha.
