You are obviously doing very well. Your hair is definitely in the "awkward stage" as mine is beginning to become. Don't hesitate to use hair spray and oil to keep it under control.
When I used to "buzz" cut my hair, I had no parting at all. When it grew from very short to short, my left parting would return and seem to be the most natural way for me. It is still on the left at present. I might adopt a centre parting later. On the other hand, asymmetry is quite charming.
I know a (female) long-haired music teacher and she has a side parting (usual "girl's side" to the right). She makes a beautiful bun with her hands in just a few seconds and holds it all in place just by shoving a pencil through it at just the right place. She always winds it in the direction of the hair to the left of her right-side parting. That might be more limiting with a central parting.
You might be interested in "fancy" buns for certain occasions as an alternative to free hair of the ponytail. Perhaps...
When you and I get all our hair to ponytail length, we will be able to style our hair with a parting anywhere we want or pull it back from the forehead with no parting. You will need to see what is best for your hair, which is much more wavy than mine.
I have the impression that even when you get to ponytail length, you should not pull it back too tightly, because you have some lovely waves on the top of you head, where mine is simply straight.
You need to experiment with different styles as you hair grows, and I look forward to seeing more photos as time goes by.

: Hello out there,
: it has been nearly a month since I appeared and my hair is a bit longer now and I would appreciate to hear (...or rather read) your honest opinion about my ..uhm.. "decentralized centre part" ;)
: So here is the photo with the old one on the bottom left and some sort of a funny(bad)-hair-day on the bottom right.
