Last week of School

Ok, so tomorrow is Monday Febuary 7, 2011. What that means is, Is its the first day of my last week of school before Graduation. Tomorrow the hours of opperation are from 9:15 to 1:30pm. school starts at 8am though.

We will do an hour of class, in my case its an hour of stateboard review. I have an appointment tomorrow at 9 though.. Jodi Heavner. who is a good friend and the author of Ameatica.. the world of noodles.. check her out. you'll love her Noodle world.. Plus she has the cutest little baby girl.. I am kinda a little nervous about being done with school. its a new path in my life.. next is stateboards then find a job doing hair, makeup and more.

I love my new path, I know that I can go far because its always been my passion ..
I will miss so many people there but, I can come back to visit..

yours always Sioux

a week and a half

Well it is a week and a half till i graduate.. wow.. does that not blow my mind.. I took my mock state boards last tuesday.. I did ok. not great.. but I know some of the things i did wrong so .. I hope that I can correct that.. That of course was the practical part.. The theory part .. well lets say, was not as good as I expected.. However,. I was told that the test given in mock boards is harder then the actual test.. so i was encouraged.. I think I will do fine..

Its been one heck of a year.. I have learned so much.. I was sitting here tonight looking at my nails.. they are pretty good. i did them of course.. the ones i did they day i started were horrible. I was horrible at nails.. Now.. I think I am good enough to charge.. YAY! thats a plus..

I love what I am doing.. I volintered to do the makeup at a runway show for St Judes hosipital. got some great pics.. I think I did really good.. Chaz the Salon owner liked my work.. I liked him also .. I think he is a very talented Stylist and we will be hearing about him in the world of beauty in the near future.

I am kinda disappointed in myself though.. I had big plans to blog this last year so much my devolopment and everything.. It just didnt happen.. I was not in a state of mind that I could be in the place I needed to be to do that.. Now I can the cause of my problem is gone.. Life has been so much better in the last month.. I am now off and running. look out world Sioux is here and I am here to stay!

yours forever Sioux

Mock statboards

I have Mock state boards at school today. if you dont know what that means.. its a practice run for state boards to get my cosmetology license.. its probally an all day thing .. I am packed and ready.. I think I'm ready for this.. I graduate in 2 wks.. which means.. If i am not ready .. I have to get ready... Atleast I have one less stress to deal with .. that is the end of my 7 yr relationship.. it was a hard desision to make but in the end was the right one. It just wasnt a good place for me to be in ..

Of course a major stress was the passing of my dad in December. Also my mom getting sicker..
The Kids are grown now.. So basically its time for me to be where I want to be.. In life physically and mentally..

I really want to move to Nashville.. I know that I can make a better living there.. I would be leaving all my friends and atleast part of my family.. I just think it would be in my best interest to do so.. I know that I will start as a assitant or something like that if I do go to Nashville but, hey everyone has to start somewhere

coming to an end..

I have tried to keep postive through this last year.. its been a long hard year.. with school.. and my father passing away 2 wks ago.. I ended a 7 yr reletionship.. that should have ended 6 yrs ago.. or 7 yrs ago .. But now.. I have a about a month of school left .. 1 month to graduate from Arnolds Beauty School.. I am so excited that its this close.. and so sad at the same time.. I love school.. My instructors are the best.. I love them all .. I am also doing my first wedding as a makeup artist, very excited about that forsure

so whats next in my life.. This I know. I will take state boards.. find a job.. live. love, laugh.. take care of my son.. and my daughter.. as much as I can since she lives 2hrs away with her husband..

Where will I live.. This I dont know.. My mother is sick. very sick.. and there is no way that I am leaving her as long as she needs me to be here. So what will happen how will it happen .. I have no idea.. but life will go on.

CityVille on Facebook

This has been one heck of a year.. Now my dad died.. last sunday.. to bizare.. really hasnt sunk in yet.. on the plus side i have one month of school left when i go back.. pretty much took me a year to finish.. I started Jan 26, 2010 and hopefully will graduate feb, 3, 2011 thats about a week after my 1 yr anniversary there.

Great Month

Its been a great month for me.. I made it to 1000 hours at school.. I went to the Premire Brimingham Hair show weekend of Oct 17,18 2010. this weekend Oct 23, 2010 I did my first runway show.. I did the makeup for so many girls.. regular makeup and airbrushed with the Dinair makeup airbrush. I was told by both the salon owner and the woman that works at the shop that I was the prefered Makup artist. there was only two of us though. I had so much fun.. I cant even tell you how many girls I did.. I was so tired by the end of the day.. It was a good tired though. One like you know you worked all day.. I made a good impression.. thats the best thing. I so hope to work with them again. I love this work.. I live it every day..
