Make Me Over

So my friend, Jenna & I have decided that we are going to work on our portfolios together. Shes going to do hair & Im going to do makeup. Charlie said he would do the photography for us. I already have one model, Airi. So now I need to buy an airbrush system or see if Julie will allow me to use hers.
I was offered a chance to work at Pistol Salon. Julie had me come in this past Thursday and shadow her. I did 2 shampoos and 3 waxes. I am scheduled for another shadow day next Saturday which is a prom day. Im also go in couple hours Tuesday and Thursday. It is a Paul Mitchell salon so Im learning things their way not how I was taught. So Ive been studying up on their products, etc.
I really need to be studying for boards too. I take them June 22nd. I am nervous bout my 90degree cut and my odorless nail. I need to study up on nail diseases and chemical texture services for the theory.

Sweet Dreams

This was my Love Horoscope...
"There is a light but definitely romantic touch in the air with today's astral configuration, one that you would have no problem in handling. If you are going out on a date with someone new, this is the perfect atmosphere in order to get to know them better. Conversation glides over a variety of subjects, and you will find that the time has gone all too quickly."
Which is funny also because I hate to get off my lap top so soon, since I was having a wonderful correspondence with my new friend. We have so much in common. But I have to get some sleep. Im excited to see what he left for me in my inbox in the morning.

What the future brings...has to be brighter, right?

"You are the kind person who just loves adventure. Today, it is just around the corner, Manda. You can even find it in unexpected places. Indeed, adventure might be at work place or in a store close to your house. Whatever you do, try to keep your sense of humor! You could also find a big surprise. It will probably influence your love life!"
Thats what my horoscope said. Interesting. Since things between B (my son's father)& I have sizzled out. Ive decided to try online dating again. Checked my inbox to find a message from a very interesting man. His profile is so impressive! Not gonna get too excited. Every male always seems perfect at first. Too good to be true. Right? I had a pretty good conversation with C (my daughter's father). I told him awhile back that there was no chance of us getting back together. Yet he is still trying. He wants the kids & I to move to Philly/Jersey with him. I told him its not a good idea. For one thing we cant be round each other & stay sober. He finally admitted to me that he hasnt been clean & sober. Anyway among good news... I got a job. Its not permanent yet. But its my dream job @Pistol Salon. My hair stylist Julie owns it. Its a Paul Mitchell Salon. I start Wednesday shadowing. Then I shadow on the 15th which is a prom day. Which scares the crap outta me! I can not do up-dos. Was never taught! I have to wear all black. Head to toe. Trendy & dressy. So shopping tomorrow.
