Back On Track

Hey!!! So things are much better now. And I should be writing again because of it. I was having a hard time, and did not really feel like I could blog without getting too into things. But I am doing great now. I am genuinely happy again. Let's see, I guess there are a few things that I should update you on. I got my hair cut and dyed this past week and a half. It looks hot and sexy!!! I love it!!! :) I have also decided that I am going to go back to school in January. I will be moving back to Winton and living with my Grandma Friesen more than likely. She will not charge me rent so that will take a load off. Also, my mom said that she will continue to pay my cell phone bill and my car insurance if I am still in school, so that will also help a lot. I have an appointment to meet with a counselor at Merced College on the 21st to talk about everything and figure out what needs to be done to get to where I want to be. I really really really want to go to APU. I do not know how realistic that is though for me. It depends on the financial aid and everything that I can get. If not, I want to go to a UC. UCSD, UCLA, UC Riverside, UCSB, or maybe even UC Merced if I decide I want to stay close to home. They would be more financially an option for me because I would not have to pay tuition or any fees(Because my step mom qualifies as a disabled veteran). So, obviously, I am looking into the UCs also. My real wish is for APU though, because of the people and the environment. I miss being around a group of people that have the same morals and beliefs as me. It is kind of emotionally draining. And I don't want to put myself into another environment where I don't have a good support system. I realize that in the real word I am going to have to be around people that I don't like or agree with, but wouldn't it be a much more enjoyable and almost easier college experience if I am around people who have the same #1 priority as me, who have mostly the same beliefs and morals. I also remember staying at the APU campus when my youth group was on our way down to Mexico. It was just a really awesome place with a great atmosphere. Anyways, I am heading down to the farm this evening with Grandpa. We are going to stop and get dinner at Red Robin on our way so that will be yummy. The girls and I are going to have a web cam date with Drewbie either tonight or tomorrow or Tuesday....just sometime while I am still down there. Tomorrow afternoon I am going to lunch at my Grandma Diane's and Grandpa Ernie's house. They are going to grill something and my Grandma is promising some sort of potato dish. Should be fantastic!! She also wants to show me some videos of my Uncle Brian and my dad when they were little. that will be interesting! I also want to talk to Aunt Rhonda some about school and see what she thinks since she is really good at that stuff. She will probably have some good suggestions about what I will need to do. Hmm I broke 1000 hours at school last week, I was pretty excited about that. Less than 600 hours to go!!!! Woo, I should be done the beginning-middle of November. I am more than thrilled about that. It cannot come any sooner, haha. So so so so ready to be done! Alright, that's it for now. :)

So life...

....appears to hate me right now. All this stress with school, life, money, and my future. Then my whole situation with him that I don't understand at all right now. And now.....my mom might have cancer. I don't know what I am going to do. All I want to do is talk to him about it... :(

To keep things short.....

Life is lame sometimes. :(

Sorry For My Absence!!

Let's just ignore the fact that I have not posted in over a month. :) So life has been CRAZYYYY since last time. Josh and I broke up in the beginning of July. It was for the best, no need to elaborate at this time. Some time since then I have been talking to Trevor. I have a good feeling about it, so we will see where it goes. He is in the Coast Gaurd and is currently out on patrol and out of contact for a few weeks. I miss him!!! :( Anyways, I went up to Redding to see my mom this past weekend. She cooked for me, took me shopping, went to the movies (The Ugly Truth), and we just hung out. It was a lot of fun. I have missed her! I am back in Sac now, preparing for the week. 13 hour days at school are in order. Woohoo! My goal is to graduate by Halloween. And it is definitely doable...I think. Hehe, I think that's all for now. Peace!

3 in 1 Day

Sooooo today 3 celebs died!!! Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, and Ed McMahon. They were playing tons of MJ on the radio all afternoon. Hmm on another note, school is boring, but what do you really expect with school. I need to make up tons of hours, so I will be staying late a lot. Woo... My step dad called me yesterday and I guess he is trying to get me a job with Verizon. He emailed his sort of nephew, Jermey. Hopefully that works out. Would be nice! :) What else? What else? Ummm I am soooo so so so close to level 3! All I need is a press n curl, razor cut, ethnic makeup, 3 color swatch sheets(which are half way done), and that is it!!! Ohhhh...I forgot about my real people weaves. I need 4 of those. They will take forever...Great. So I found out that the person who rear ended me a couple months ago is insured with Geico. So I have been talking to Geico, and they have been trying to get in contact with their insured, but have not been able to. Just trying to get all of that sorted out. My computer has also been acting up again recently. A lot of blue screen errors, a blank black screen that will not go away, my web cam does not always work, and my optical drive is not always recognized. Dell is still refusing to give me a replacement. Even though one of their employees told me I would if I continued to have problems. So, I will be calling customer care sometime to talk to them about it. I was not in the mood today......spent the night on the phone with them the past couple of days, just needed a break. I am supposed to be going to Vegas with Michelle and her mom for 4th of July weekend, but I am kind of worried since I do not really have any money.... =/ Ughh.

All Clear (I Think)

So, this is why I never want to live alone. I totally just freaked myself out thinking that someone had broken in!!! I heard a door downstairs and I thought it was a robber. So I am freaked out peaking under my door. Elvis was peeking with me. We were totally ninja! Although, Elvis found it more fun to stick his paws under the door. He needs to learn to be stealth. Anyways yeah, peeking under the door for like minutes at a time. Since like 11:30. No sign of anyone/thing. I am now assuming that the door was Betty going to bed or to the bathroom. She does stay up late ya know. :D

Another Elvis Update

From Day 2 (6/10/09):

And so it begins!!

Soooo I arrived here from Turlock on Monday, June 8th. Elvis' toilet traiing kit had arrived. So yesterday, June 9th, was his first day with it. I think he was mad because he peed on my bag and pooped on the ground. On a brighter note, he did pee in the seat at least once yesterday. Annnnnnnd I think that he has given up being mad because I woke up in the middle of the night as he was trying to drag the toilet into the seat to cover up the poop. So I jumped out of bed, cleaned it up, and gave him a treat for using the seat, as opposed to the earlier mentioned floor. When I woke up this morning I saw that he had pooped again!!!! Yay! It seems to be working thus far.

A few pictures.....

Elvis Toilet Update Day 1:



Elvis Toilet Update Day 2:
Trying to pull the toilet into the seat to cover his business!!

Oh My...

Wow, it has been foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. I am so horrible about updating this thing. I am in Turlock this weekend. I got to see my brother and grandparents at Red Robin! Hmmm what is new that I have to share?? Hmm Linda is pregnant, and she might be leaving school because of all the fumes. Oooo and Kendra got a boob job, haha. Umm yeah I do not know what to say really. This coming weekend is my brother's birthday party. Should be fun to see family. Okay, I think that is it for now.

Hola

Hi Everyone!! I am here to do my bi yearly update...lol. It at leasst seems like it takes me forever to update this. I had my first REAL(non family) client on April 29th. His name was Ryan and I gave him a haircut. I was kinda nervous, hehe. I also worked at a race that weekend. So I am looking forward to having a little bit of money. I am working another one in a couple of weeks, woo!! :)This past week I had two clients. I did a color correction on Ryah(May 6th), which turned out great, and I gave Katie a pedicure(May 8th). Saturday, Josh and I had dinner with my dad, stepmom, and Katherine. We had Thai food!!! It was very very good. I went in to turn in my passport application this morning, but I had to make an appointment for tomorrow. This coming weekend my family and I are going to a beach house. It should be a lot of fun! Ooooo Ooooo andddd I ordered my business cards this week. They should be here within 3 weeks. Alright, I think that is about it for now....Peace.

P.S. Happy 18th Birthday Becca!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A Glimpse

Gahhhhh, I am so so so bad at updating my blog. I always forget to do so, even when exciting things come along. Hmm, I have my lip pierced(monroe) now. I got it done on April 14th. I love love love it!!! I am happy that I got it done. What else??? I spent Easter at my dad's house. There was of course an Easter egg hunt extravaganza!! Peacocks included. I colored and highlighted my mom's hair on Friday the 17th, and cut Josh's hair the next day. Both of which turned out great(in my opinion)! Josh and his mom had interviews with two different animation schools here in Sacramento on Friday(the 24th). After the interviews we met for food at On the Border. Yummy Yummy! Today was full of perms and makeup applications. Quite the combo I would say. I am working at a race this Saturday in Fairfield/Vacaville. I am having dinner at my dad's Friday night so I will just stay the night there since the race is right by his house. Woot! Money! :P

Inked Up

Hi all!!! So I did end up getting a tattoo on Tuesday (March 31, 2009). Woo!! It was a pretty cool experience. I was really happy with the shop I chose (Elite Piercing and Tattoo). It was really clean and welcoming. Everyone there was super nice, yet professional at the same time. The tattoo did not really hurt that bad. It was definitely bearable. It hurt at first, but almost seemed like the pain went away after awhile. I do not really know how to explain it. Let us just say that I will be getting more. =] Dano (the guy who did it) was awesome. I will definitely go back to him for my future tats and piercings. I was really nervous at first, but he put me at ease. He explained everything that he was going to do to me. He answered all of my questions. It only took about 45 minutes to finish. Apparently it took longer than expected (It was only expected to take about 15-20 minutes), because my skin is retarded and is very delicate. He had to be gentle and fine with it because the ink was wanting to spread a little bit in my little veins. He made it work though, which is another reason that I will continue to go to him. All in all, it was a very good experience.

Today I was working on my weaves. I got 3 of them done, so I only have 1 left. Then I will move on to perms, which I only have one left to do. After that will be relaxers. I am hoping to get started on the relaxers tomorrow sometime. I went to dinner with my dad and Cheryl tonight. We met at this Thai food place in Davis. It was really really good. They are moving to Germany in July. I am hoping that I will be able to go out there and see the area after I get out of school. Maybe I will get to spend the holidays there. This weekend I will be going down to Turlock. Going to a birthday lunch with Michelle, Josh, and possibly David on Sunday. Then we will be seeing a movie. Not sure which one yet. Next weekend is Easter Sunday. I am going to be spending the night that Saturday and then spending the day with my dad's family. It should be fun. Alright, I think that is it... :]]

Tattoo Pics!!!

Weekend/Monday :P

Heyyyy!! So I am now officially and adult. I am not really sure if I feel like one yet, though. It is kind of weird. Sunday was my family party thing. Went to John's Incredible Pizza Place, lol. It was fun, got to play games and stuff. Got some presents from the fam. Watched tons of movies with the boy all weekend (as always, lol). We saw this super cheesy effects movie, it all looked so fake. We had some good laughs with that one. Jamba Juice called me yesterday morning to schedule an interview for this morning. They called me on my birthday...a sign maybe? Hehe. So I went to the interview this morning. I feel pretty good about it. It is a two step interview process, so she will call me tomorrow evening to hopefully schedule a second interview. After the interview, Josh and I drove down to Turlock. I edited/uploaded some pictures from yesterday. Then we headed to MJC for Josh's classes. I am sitting in the student lounge on the school's free wifi. And there are these 2 gay guys like making out on the other side of the room. Weeeeeeird. So tomorrow I am going to be hopefully getting a tattoo!!!! Yay!! I was going to get a monroe piercing, but I may wait on it. I have not decided for sure yet. Alright, I will update tomorrow after the whole tattoo/piercing endeavor.

Pictures from the weekend:

Wow I am Lazy!

So maybe I was wrong, and that the procrastination was/is not over. It has probably been entirely too long since I have written. So today I said to myself, "I should should really write something...anything today." So here I am. Last weekend my dad, step mom, brother, Josh, and I went out to dinner for my birthday. We had sushi from Mikuni!!! It was oh so yummy!!!!! My dad and Cheryl gave me some money and some Bath and Body Works lotions for my birthday. Woo! :) I watched Twilight at Michelle's house on Monday. She also gave me a birthday present early. I got Twilight, Bath and Body Works lotion and body wash, loofah, earrings, and a hair bow accessory thing from her. Love it all!! This Sunday is my family party at John's Incredible Pizza Place, so I will get to see a lot of my family. Josh is taking me to get his present for me on Monday. Hmm, so Sunday morning Tifany is cutting my hair. Finalllllllly. Oh!!!! And Tuesday I am either getting a tattoo or a monroe piercing. I am not entirely sure yet. Thoughts???

The Procrastination Has Come To An End

I would be lying if I said "I cannot believe it has been this long since I have written!!!!!" I have been telling myself for over a week now that I need to write in here. You can tell how that worked out. I kept putting it off, lol. Anyways, I will fill you in on the big things.

Wednesday, March 4th, I got in my first car accident. I was on Auburn Blvd. on my way home from work. I stopped at a yellow light because the intersection was getting filled up with cars. Out of nowhere someone slams into the back of my car. They push me into the intersection, and I end up hitting the car that is stopped in the middle of the intersection. The car in front of me, and I pull over. The car that hit me drove off without even stopping. I was and still am rather pissed off about it.

This past week was my first week on the floor. I was only there Tuesday though, because I got sick. I have a really bad sinus cold that does not want to go away. =[ Hopefully I will start to feel better tomorrow since I have school again Tuesday. I am kind of worried about being way behind everyone else since I missed so many days this week. I hope it all works out.

I Cannot Think of a Title =/

It has been too long. When I wait this long to update, I do not even know where to start. Hmmm, well on Friday I went to a party/sleepover at Linda's after school. It was me, Linda, Suzy, Tatianna, Stephanie (she left early), Kendra, Jessica, Jerry (Linda's fiance), and Amber (Linda and Jerry's roommate). We hung out, played some games, and just got to know each other a lot better. I picked up Josh in Natomas around 10:30am on Saturday. We met my mom, Sean, Brianna, Jordan, and Gma Wanda in Vacaville to head over to Palo Alto to See JD, Erika, Peyton, and Lucas. They were soooooo cute!!!! Josh and Sean were scared to hold them because they were so tiny, hehe. We all helped them out with some various household things. I even cut Erika's fringe. I was pretty nervous about that since I have not cut anyone else's hair before. We headed down to Turlock around 8:30am on Sunday. We had to stop at Auto Zone and get me a new gas cap since I drove off without it on Saturday. I got one with a key this time. That way the key will be in the cap, therefore I will have to put it back to be able to drive away, HAHA!! I drove home this morning and got home an hour before I had to be at school. We were learning about scalp treatments, scientific brushing, blow drying, and other styling techniques today. It was fun. =]

A Day of Relaxation

Hi all! Today was super fun and relaxing. We did facials on each other all day. Stephanie was my partner. We took turns doing them on each other. They felt so nice!!! And now my skin feels all fresh and clean. Tomorrow we are doing brow waxing and tinting. I hope we all end the day with both eyebrows still on our heads, lol!! This Friday we are having a slumber party at Linda's. It should be pretty fun! :) I hope I can go, but it depends on when everyone wants to go see Peyton and Lucas. I am also hoping that Tiffany can cut my hair tomorrow evening. It really needs to be cut. It also needs to be dyed, but I am too lazy to make an appointment.

A Day (Or 2) of Firsts

Soooo yesterday Erika had her twins (Peyton Joy & Lucas Benjamin)!!!! They are February babies, so I continue to be the only March birthday, hehe!! But yes, I am super excited to have newborn little cousins. I am hoping to go see them this weekend with my mom and whoever else. :) In school we learned how to do manicures and pedicures. Then we got to give each other manicures!!! It was like a slumber party, haha. After school I went to my dad's for dinner. They made enchiladas. They were gooood. I brought some home with me that I had for lunch today. It was nice to have a home cooked meal after a long day of school. My dad also informed me that I have free health insurance until I am 21 regardless of whether or not I am still in school. So that is pretty nice. Do not have to worry about finding new health insurance for awhile. On my way home I got pulled over for the first time. It was scary! Apparently the cop did not like me going 80 on the freeway. He did not give me a ticket though. So I was pretty happy about that. I really do not need my insurance going up any. Today, in main theory, Eddie did some pretty sweet make up on Eric as a demonstration. It turned out really cool! Eric took it off shortly after though because he was worried about breaking out. We learned how to do nail wraps, repairs, brush ons, and tips today. I thought it was pretty fun, even though I sucked so bad at it. The tips were the easiest, which is nice since that is what most people seem to get. So we were working on operations all day. I was the only person to get all of mine done. Woo! I will not have to worry about it out on the floor. I talked to Michelle this evening, which was nice since we have not talked in awhile. I also repainted my nails because they got messed up while messing with nail glue and acrylic today. I think that is about all that I have to share.

Update

So Josh and I are up in Cottonwood at my mom's house. We drove up Friday night, it was a long long long drive!!! This morning we woke up and got ready to head into Redding. We dropped Brianna off at her friend's house. Her formal banquet thingy is tonight and she wanted to get ready with her friends. So then Sean dropped Josh, my mom, and I off at Costco while he went to his doctor appointment. I got some Pirate's Booty, Rice Chips, and Edamame(sp). It was fun getting all the free samples, lol. Afterwards we went to Chipolte and I got some guacamole and chips. We went over to my grandparent's house and hung out for a little bit. We then went to meet Brianna at her banquet to take some pictures of her in her dress. Hmmm then this evening there was all this drama. Bleh. Okay, I am done.

Good Morning

Ahhh I woke up and my hair is all crazy!!! It will not stay down, random pieces are sticking up. Grrr, bad hair day. Well yesterday this extensions lady was our guest speaker. They looked reallly cool. I think I want to call her and find out how much she offers classes for. You can make pretty sweet money off of extensions. I did a weave on my doll yesterday too!!It was so fun! Tonight I am going to help Aunt Kathy with some work, so I will have a little extra money. Woo! Hehe, well I need to go finish getting ready.

Has it really been almost a week?!

Wow, I have not written since Monday! How weird. I guess the weekdays were not that interesting. On Tuesday, Tina, from Vidal Sassoon was here, and she demonstrated 2 haircuts for everyone. It was pretty cool. Her sectioning and everything was just amazing. The rest of the week was pretty normal and routine. Thursday I drove down to Turlock to surprise Josh since his birthday was Wednesday and Valentine's Day was Saturday. Friday we ran some errands and went to Josh's mom's house for a birthday party for him and his grandma.

My Day

So I had a major blonde moment this morning. I show up at school at 8:50ish and no one is there. I am freaking out because I think class is supposed to start, but the doors are locked. I finally remember that on Mondays I do not have class until 10:30. Yeah, I felt incredibly stupid. So, I went over to Target. Found a birthday card for the boy, a super cute sweater for $6, a book(Confessions of a Shopaholic), and some cat food. We started color today(as I thought we were). It was way fun. We did these swatches where you take little chunks of hair and bleach part of them. Yeah, it was pretty cool. It was really weird not having Kendra, Jessica, and Galina there. Kind of quiet I guess. I forgot to bring my laptop to class again. It would be so much easier to take notes with it!!! I hope I remember tomorrow. The Vidal Sassoon lady(Tina) is going to be at school giving a seminar tomorrow, so we will not be doing as much coloring. It sounds like it will be pretty cool though. After school I headed over to In-N-Out on Del Paso because Aunt Rhonda and Abbey brought Jordan up to Sacramento, and my grandpa drove down to get him. So we all met for dinner. It was pretty nice. And now I am at home, waiting till 8 because the Bachelor comes on.

Recap

Busy busy busy. Well, kind of to an extent. I have a lot of stuff to catch you all up on. Hmmm Friday we worked on our thio relaxers. I got all three of them signed off so I only have one more sodium hydroxide relaxer to do for level 1. Woo! Annnnnnnd we got our Vidal Sassoon books and DVDs!!! I was so so excited about that. I guess we are having a Vidal Sassoon seminar on Tuesday, so that should be fun. We have to attend in order to get our diplomas. I got In-N-Out for dinner then headed home. I left my house around 9:30 Saturday morning to make sure I had enough time to find Fleet Feet in Davis. Work went really well. It was annoying though because we had to move our cars every 2 hours because of 2 hour parking. Jeannine gave Annie and I a coupon to Chipolte for lunch. It was super super yummy!! She is also going to be sending me a list of all the races coming up, so I can sign up for some of them. Sarah picked me up on her way to Palo Alto. So I got to see my mom, brother, cousins, step dad, stepsister, and everyone else for a little bit. I stayed the night at JD and Erika's. Lots of Rockband 2 was involved. That game is loads of fun, even though I suck at it. This morning we walked to this little diner in downtown Palo Alto. It had pretty good food. Back at the house, we started what is called the endless set list on Rockband. It includes all of the songs on the game(that is 84 songs!), and you play the set with no breaks. Sarah and I left around song 20. Neither of us our so good with directions. We got on 580 E when we were supposed to be on 580 W. The stupid GPS did not tell us which one though!!! Lol, we eventually found our way back though. We start hair color this week and I am pretty thrilled about it. :))

A Quick One

So this blog is going to be a quick one. I am super tired and need sleep. Ooooo! I got 100% on my Skin D&D test! I am so happy! :) We worked on relaxers today. The practice on the dolls was pretty easy, but I am scared about when we will have to do it on real people. You can really fry people's scalps with the sodium hydroxide. Scary stuff!! Mmm, I went to Target and the 99 cent store after school. I got some kitty litter and kitty litter deoderizer. Hopefully that will help the stuffyness some. I think that is all for tonight.

Mmmmm Stuff

Hmmm, what to type..... Well, turns out the skin d&d test is tomorrow and not today. So in main theory, we just reviewed the whole time. I hope that I do decent!! Then we basically just did perms all day. Okay, not even basically. We did perms all day. I got both the bricklayer and the piggyback signed off. The piggyback is definitely my favorite so far. I only have the spiral perm left to do. Ehh so I need a job. Why is no one hiring?! I am actually starting to worry about money, even though I am for sure good for the next 5 months. Ughhh I would just like a job so that I have money to buy my food and get gas and presents and such. Maybe I can do more stuff for A Change of Pace. I will have to talk to Jeannine about that. Betty and I discussed food payments today a little bit. She was asking for $5/ a day for food. I know it is not really that much, but I cannot really afford to commit to that every day. So I am just going to be figuring out my own food and meals. If I lose 20 lbs you will know why, lol. Sooo I absolutely love my hair! I am getting used to it. It still feels kind of weird like in the shower because there is not very much hair there anymore and feels so light. But yes, I love it very much. Tomorrow I think we will be learning relaxers. I am interested to learn about them. I am working at packet pick up for a race in Davis this weekend. So there is a little money to go towards everything. Woo! Alright, it is sleepy time soon.

LOL!

Sleepyness

Hi all! Mmm today was a pretty good day. I woke up super tired. I did not want to get up at all, but of course I did. In main theory, Eddie taught us a different take on long layers. He called it the X-Cut. It was pretty interesting. Then in the freshmen room we learned more about perms and such. I got my first two types signed off. They were the straightback and the candlestick. Tomorrow I will start the bricklayer. I actually really like perms. A few people kept saying "OMG! I am never going to do perms!!" And I just do not really understand why everyone hates them so much. Linda got sent home because her dress was too short. She looked hella hot, but yeah, it was on the short side. Hmm, so I just remembered that we have a test on skin diseases and disorders tomorrow. I am so going to fail this one. Soooooo many terms to know. I suppose I should go over them tonight or in the morning. Well, I took Betty grocery shopping tonight. I got a few things for myself. Some chips, Crystal Light pouches, and some frozen dinner thingys that I can bring to school. I am trying not to go out for lunch. I have been doing good this week. I have not gone out once yet!! Mmmm so I want to dye my hair sometime soon. I need to make an appointment for that. I am thinking that I want Brad to do it. I have been working on typing all my notes up for the past hour. My anal OCDness is getting to me. All the pages need to be organized the same. Thank you mom for that inherited trait, haha. That is all, I need sleep!!!

Ahaha, this makes me laugh!!

Oh Perms!!

Soooo this weekend we went to a superbowl party for Kevin's work. It was alright. I decided to drive home this morning, as opposed to last night, because I figured that there were probably a lot of drunk people on the road last night. So I woke up around 7am, left at 8am, and got home around 9:30am. On my way back I heard on the radio that a cable company in Arizona was hacked into during the superbowl and an adult film was played for about 8 minutes. It made me laugh when I heard that!! Soooo in class, today, we took tons and tons of notes on permanent waving. It was rediculous how much we had to write down. We practiced sectioning and wrapping a little bit. It takes a little bit to get the hang of it. Lots and lots of patience involved I suppose. I am not really sure what I think of it yet. Perms have the rep that you either really hate them or really love them, though. So, we will see how that goes. Betty and I watched The Bachelor. It is down to the final 4 girls already! It seems like it just started, and it is already close to the end. My favorite girl went home tonight, so I am kind of sad, lol. Alright, I believe that is it for now. Enjoy!

Random Tid-Bits

Hi All! How are you? I am doing pretty fantastical!! :D I cut hair all day long. Woo! And I finally got my CA cut signed off so I will be starting my AC tomorrow morning. I am excited that our last day of cutting is tomorrow. I mean, it is loads of fun and all, but I am ready to learn everything else, haha! I found out today that we are going to be learning about perms and relaxers next week. Should be fun! Omg!!! So this girl from my school who went on the London trip this year is apparently stuck in London! Someone stole her wallet and passport and stuff so she cannot get back to America! Is that not insane?! I would be freakin' terrified to be stuck in another country with no money... Anywaysssss, after class tomorrow, Tifany, one of the instructors, is going to cut my hair. I am rather excited about it. I told her that she can be creative and do whatever she wants. So this should be interesting(pictures to come!!!). I am trying to decide if I am going to drive down to Turlock tomorrow night. I want to go to the Superbowl party with Josh. I will see how I am feeling after I am done with everything tomorrow, I suppose. I went out to dinner with my dad and stepmom this evening. We went to On the Border in Natomas. It was sooooooo yummy. Definitely a favorite place to eat. It was a nice evening too, had some nice conversations with them. And afterwards I was in the bathroom and there was this lady talking to her little girl about how they were moving to Guam soon. So I talked to her for a little bit. Her husband is in the Air Force and they are moving there in 2 days. What a small world, lol. Alright, well my mind is drawing a blank so I think that I am done for today. Peace.

The No Name Blog

So I have been sitting here for about 20 minutes(okay maybe I am exaggerating a little bit) trying to think of what to call this blog entry. And my mind is still completely blank on a title. Hence "The No Name Blog." Anyways, my day has been a good one. Despite my early morning, I took the time to eat some toast and have some Cranberry/Grape Juice. Juice is kind of my new thing. I am trying to drink it in the place of soda. I am actually trying to give up soda entirely. I am also considering my no sugar diet again. It worked wonders last time. Haha, we will see I guess. Hmm so we learned about skin disorders and diseases, learned a new cut, and then just cut our dolls hair the rest of the day. It was pretty sweet. But I was getting hella frustrated. I was doing a CA cut, which is layers with a line, and my layers on one side were longer than my layers on the other side. I rechecked all my sections like 50 million times and I could not find where I messed up. By the time I found it and fixed it, it was almost time to do sanitation. Jessica's dad came to pick her up today so I got to meet him. He is JD Chandler. Some of you may know of him. He is a nationwide radio host for K-Love. So that was kind of cool. Betty and I watched American Idol again. Tonight's was actually pretty entertaining and I saw some people that I was pretty impressed with. Oh!! So I have a test on Vidal Sassoon's ABC cutting system on Monday. Woo! And apparently, unlike all the other tests, it is open ended questions. So I really need to study and learn the material well. This week is our last week of hair cutting in the freshman room. It will be kind of nice to have a break from it. Especially since it has been pretty frustrating and stressful. Next week is Kendra, Jessica, and Galina's last week with us before they get to roll out on to the floor. How sad!!!! =[ But then we get to meet the new freshmen!! I hope there are boys in it, lol!! And I have decided that I need to get my haircut sometime soonish! Like preferably this week or next week. I think that I want like a dramatic triangle cut. Pretty short, but I want like long, kind of wispy pieces in the front. And I think I want it all platinum. And maybe some colored panels in there somewhere. I will ask around tomorrow maybe. :]]

Here, have a picture!!! My grandma made me demonstrate, lol.

Lazy Lazy Day

Sooo today was an incredibly lazy day in the life of Megan. My alarm went off at 7:30. I turned it off and rolled right back over to go back to sleep. I was not feeling the best either. My second alarm went off 10 minutes later, and it was then that I decided I was going to use one of my free days. I get 10 free days of school throughout the whole time that I am attending. You have to spread them out though because every month, if your attendance drops below 90%, you are put on probation and cannot participate in any extra curricular activities through the school. So I used my January free day. I had a nice breakfast of coffee, orange juice, toast, and cereal. I swear that I am becoming addicted to coffee. I have a cup every single morning. I need it though. I am not used to this whole 7:30am routine. But yes, I called into the school and let them know that I was not coming in today. I attempted to unpack the rest of my boxes. I find it funny that the first few days that I was here, I was all gung-ho for unpacking and then the excitement of it all just kind of slowly dwindled down. There are only 3 boxes left. I should really just get it over with. I went down to Jamba Juice at 5:30 and filled out an application. I did not get to talk to Chelsey though. She was at the bank while I was there. I hope that something works out though. I have my fingers crossed. Betty was pulling a lemon cake out of the oven as I was walking in the door and it smells delicious. We will probably have a piece when we sit down to watch American Idol. Speaking of which, I suppose it is about that time. Until tomorrow...(corny much).

P.S. I saw these amazing waffles. I want them!!!! :DDD

My Weekend....

So, my weekend was pretty awesome!! I went down to Turlock/Merced. Woo!! Friday I left kind of late(took Betty shopping first) so I did not get down there until around 9:30 or so. I headed into Merced Saturday afternoon and met up with Michelle. I helped her pick out and outfit for her date with David that night. Found some sweet [on sale] boots for myself as well!

And yes, I am new to blogger and instead of one of those normal "I think I will start this blogging thing..." posts, I just decided to dive right in. Yep. :]]
