So on Monday I spent the whole day cleaning and doing laundry and pretty much running around like a chicken with her head cut off. I was crazy busy. And my dad gets home and says, "hey sweetie, looks like you got a flat tire." Sure enough I walk out to my car and it's a flat. I moved it into the driveway hoping it wouldn't be too serious and there's a big ugly rust nail in it. =[ I literally cried. I was like I have no money to fix this and tires are expensive. After my last flat tire two years ago my dad had bought me like some tire warranty where they replace it for free. I was so thankful. A part of me was really upset about the flat tire but another part of me was just thankful that it didn't happen this weekend when I am driving some of the kids at my church around for a photo scavenger hunt night. A flat tire would've ruined all that. Not to mention it would've taken me hours to change it where it took my dad the better part of 7 minutes. =] haha. At least the nail was in a place that was easily repairable.
This is Mochi. She is the sweetest little kitty I've ever known. But yesterday when she was exploring my sister's room she got spooked by something and sort of well - attacked my sister. There was a lot of blood. It wasn't pretty. But I got my sister all cleaned up and she wasn't upset at Mochi because she could tell it was because she got scared. The cut was pretty bad and we had to change band-aids multiple times throughout the day.
So now that school is done with I've been trying to get back into reading because I love to read! Love it! And I've been looking for suggestions for good books and one of the books suggested to me was Twilight. My sister handed me the book at eleven last night and I couldn't stop reading it. I finally finished it at four thirty this morning. I am so tired. Tonight I start book two and then move on the book three and four! I'm excited! =]
So being out of high school for two years and also not having worked at Chanel for two years has made me completely forget how chaotic of a month June is - what with Proms, Graduations, and Weddings around every corner. I have to admit my hiatus from the business of this month is coming to an end - and happily so. I've been getting phone calls like crazy to do prom makeup - and the scariest part is most of them are from girls that I don't even know which means my past work has been noticed and appreciated. So with this new turn of events, I thought I'd look up some of my old Prom Jobs and put some pictures up =]. Enjoy.
She was the first one to be finished. She had freckles but didn't really want them to stand out. She also never wears makeup so I had to take that into consideration; and we ended up with a natural refreshing look.
I ended up doing a total of five girls that day. It was pretty intense and needless to stay a very very long day. I think we started around eleven in the morning and based on whoever had what hair appointments we shifted girls in and out of my chair for six hours!
I was utterly exhausted in the end, but I know the girls were thankful and they all looked so beautiful.
The girl on the left had a black eye that I had to cover.
I cannot even begin to say how happy I am that I am done with finals. And more importantly, I passed the class i needed to pass and I can now return home to my lovely school California State University Long Beach. I had to go to community college for a semester to fulfill a math requirement. Boo =[ . Haha, I guess it's my own fault though for not taking math my senior year of high school.
I am very much looking forward to spending time with friends and family. During school I tend to not go out very much. I should also work though. I could use the money =]. Anyway, I haven't posted in a while and now that school is done with and summer is approaching, I'm sure I will have tons of things to blog about and some new pictures to boot.
So, just a little update. I have been without internet for about two weeks - hence the lack of blogging. I'm hoping to get that fixed today. But we'll see. I'm tired as ever. It feels like I've been working non stop. I got my schedule for this week and released all my shifts. I just hope somebody picks them up!
In other news, Jason is finally moving out of his dad's house. Thank goodness! I'm so happy for him and proud of him. He needs his own space so bad. We went mattress shopping the other day. Talk about stressful! I don't ever want to do that again! It is seriously like an all day thing - forget about anything else you thought you'd be doing that day. Well anywho, he found a really nice one that he likes and decided to trade in his twin size bed for a queen size. Quite and improvement I must say. He has to move in this weekend. I'm hoping someone will work for me on Saturday so I can help him.
More to come later - I'm off to class. Sociology test today =[
So Jason and I never really got a chance to celebrate Valentine's Day. I was working that night and we went on vacation right afterwords. So yesterday I took him his Valentine's Day Basket [or Bucket] however you want to look at it. Inside was a brand new pair of SPY sunglasses [because he can't seem to find his old ones] a really long letter[lol] the Fast and the Furious box set [that's his favorite movie] and the York mints we're both hooked on in a cute little Valentine's Day tin. Oh and of course pop corn for the movies. I also took him 8 Dark Chocolate covered Strawberries [his favorite]. It was a nice night! And I'm pretty sure he like everything!
This is the envelope of the card where I wrote him an essay [because I love him too much]
