Growing out hair "awkward phase"

Hi everybody!
I'm currently letting my hair grow out, but I sort of am in a phase where I just feel like trimming everything off but I then keep telling myself that if I do that, that phase will eventually come back and I'll be screwed again... =(
I absolutely want my hair to be long but it just looks so awful now!
I want to let it grow past my shoulders, around breast height.. I know I still have a long way to go to reach that length...
I don't mind if I'll look like a girl with it, so give me some advice what hairstyles I should wear once I'll have it long, and also in between.
Here are some pics I took:

How would you call my hair by the way? It isn't straight, but not wavy either...

See, it looks really crappy... When I had it totally short, it looked good. Then, after a while, it started to look crappy again for nearly a month. After that, I had it long enough to just let it hang down and and it would look pretty cool.And now I'm again in that phase, but I can't let it like this for months again...
Sorry for babbling lol.
Thanks a lot ^^

 

You're a guy so it's easier for you! Just comb it all into a ponytail or wear a hat.Before you know it,you'll be out of the awkward stage
