Update

Good morning my lovelies,

I hope you're all well :D

Wow have things been annoying this past couple of weeks, as you know I was progressing onto  my second year of hairdressing and somehow college had seriously messed up so I didn't  know what was happening, I won't go into too much detail because it just annoys me. Anyhow, I started college on Wednesday, we start at 9am and finish at 8pm so it's a long long long day which isn't great after being off of college for two months for the summer.

My hair,  I still have the Rose Red by Directions  and I actually seriously love it. It's a raspberry colour now and I am so in love with it. I do not like the one inch of root that I have  going on though.. I'm going to go have them bleached I think.

I finally joined the gym and I did my first ever Zumba class, which I absolutely loved. If I had the time I would go to every zumba class ever in the world haha. I also went to my first step class, I have to be honest here,  I was terrified of using the step just because I thought I would end up on my ass.

 

Salon  international, with college we are going this year. I seriously cannot wait, I'll be there on  the14th and 15th of October I think so if you are there then I'd love to meet you.

 

It does feel nice to be back at college and doing something again.

 

What have you beauties been up to?

 

Peace and Love

 

 

Funerals, moving on, moving out and college (an update)

Hello you lovelies,

Happy Easter, How are we all doing? I hope you are eating tons of chocolate :-). It's Been a while since I blogged, I'm a bad blogger.

I'll just get on with the post.

Recently my nan was taken into hospital, she was in there for two weeks and lost her fight Thursday 29th February. It's been a horrible couple of weeks and I did want to come and do a few blog posts but I was so drained and didn't really want to do anything but sleep. With everything that has been going on I've been a bit unwell myself. 

The funeral was really lovely, but, it's sad because it's the end of an era. Now my nan is dead I have no reason to return to Barnsley (my nan lived there and so did my dad's sides of the family) I grew up there splitting my time between Barnsley and Sheffield so it is sad.

So moving on, right now I live in a three bedroom house which I've lived in since 1993 and I'm finally ready to leave it. A three bed place when you live alone is just too much for one person, I love this house it has some good memories but I'm just not happy here anymore, I want to live closer to my friend. I'm also planning on going to Canada next July for a year, maybe longer if I can get a good place to stay or settle down with a  gorgeous Canadian man lol. I have moved on from my ex but I don't truly feel like I've moved on with my life because I am still in this house which has some real demons. It has lots of good memories but also lots of bad memories and I'm just not happy which isn't helping me. I have another week off of college so I am planning on having a really thorough spring clean because I am looking into getting a 1 bed flat or house. I've met a lovely guy, he's really nice and it's all going well, I don't want to jinx it but I really like him so I'll see how that goes.

College, I'm still enjoying hairdressing. I think by far doing this course is the best thing I have ever done,I wish I'd done it earlier in my life but better late than never, right? I'm good at it too, it's nice being able to make people feel gorgeous :-) hopefully next year if I do really well I will be moving on to a barbering course. I think that this is a great idea just because then I can work in a unisex salon and be an "uberdresser" as I like to call it lol. 

With all of the sadness that has surrounded me for the past year or two I am finally in place where I am 100% ready to leave everything behind and a brand new fresh start. When you are unhappy there is only person who can sort it out and that is you. I don't want to just exist anymore, I want to actually move on and be happy. I've got so much going for me in my life, I know I'm not getting any younger so now I'm ready to pick up my life and finally be selfish and do something for myself.

Also before I go, the boy downloaded me the new Zumba DVDs and they are awesome. I'm still loving Zumba and I am working on my friend to get her to come to some classes with me. As far as my weight goes I don't think I've lost any, just because I've been doing a lot of comfort eating recently. 

Anyhow, that's enough for now. I've been writing stuff to blog about so I'm slowly coming back, just bear with and thanks for sticking around girlies you are all awesome.

Peace and Love

Peek a boo

Hello my loves,

Firstly I'd like to say hello and welcome to my new followers, I was at 70 and then I suddenly had 75 that's really big to me and I am so thankful to you all. I hope you are all well and keeping warm in this freezing cold weather. It's been horrible this year because I had my massive weight loss (I've lost another stone) and I've not had as much meat on me to keep me warm lol.

Anyhow, I'm back. Where have you been Joy? The start of the year was good but I took a needed much break from blogging and tweeting, yep even twitter and we all know how much of a twitter junkie I am lol. I wanted to concentrate on college and everything else in my life, plus I didn't really have anything to blog about but I really want to start blogging again. I've been doing a lot of thinking about my life and in the coming months I've got some very exciting things lined up, I don't really want to jinx them too much so I won't mention it just yet.

Anyway, the start of the year as I mentioned has been good, I'm doing really well in college and I did my friends hair the other day which was so much fun. I'm loving it, you know people doubted me when I said I wanted to do hairdressing at college and begin a new career but I stuck to my guns and I actually am sad I didn't do this course when I was younger, oh well I can do it now and I'm happy about that. I'm not one of those people who can stand on my feet for long periods of time, so why become an hairdresser? well the long and short of it is I love it, when you are doing something you love you are less likely to moan about it and honestly being on my feet for 6 hours isn't so bad when you're happy. 

Aside from college I had no internet for ages and I've locked myself out of email because I don't know my password which isn't good.

I've been on a few dates with a few men which I'm not sure you're interested in but I thought I'd share that anyhoodles, lol. I've lost more weight, how I did this is totally beyond me but I went to New Look with my Christmas money and bought 2 dresses in a size 12 and they fit me. I'm not going to lie it felt good getting them home and them fitting perfectly.

This next week I am off of college and I am wanting to get back into blogging which will be good, I'm a bit rusty so bear with me :-).

So I'll leave it here for now, but if you would like me to write about anything let me know. I'm not going to blog everyday like I did last year because I think that is the reason I ended up falling out of love with blogging.

Peace and Love 

Back to school

Hello you gorgeous bunch of Lovelies :-)

I hope you're all ok. First of all I'd like to say welcome aboard to my new subbies, I'm really grateful and I am loving your bloggies too :-)

So yesterday was my "back to school" day, I'm not going to lie I was really nervous because I haven't been to college since 2005 or 2006, I don't even remember. It was very daunting because I get anxious about being around new people and the hairdressing is completely out of my comfort zone.

I enjoyed it, I went off to the loo and then when I went to room we were supposed to meet in I got lost which was seriously not good. There was a crap ton of paper work to fill in and we did some practical on the dolls heads. I've learnt how to do a proper blow dry which you get in salons, which was really quite hard to get used too. I honestly thought I'd done a bad job but the tutor came up to me and said "wow this is awesome, compared to how you were at the start you've done a great job, how do you feel about it?" I felt great about this, I know it's only hairdrying but there's a technique to it which is great to learn and it's fun. My feet hurt a lot, but that's because I'm used to being sat on my behind. There will be a trip coming up, where we will get to go to London for the day and visit a top salon, which just sounds amazing but I'm not sure if I am going be able to go, due to lack of funds.

The people are very friendly but it took a while for us to start talking, I think I am going to enjoy this course but I'm still nervous. I don't want to be the top of the class but I just to do the best I can and pass. I want so badly to be able to succeed in my new career path.

Thank you for listening, I was just wondering if you guys would like to see a haul post of my hairdressing kit?

Much love

Back to school wishlist.

Hello my loves.

I hope you're all ok.

As I've mentioned in previous posts I'm going back to college, This time next week I'll be there. I'm quite scared and anxious about it. I'm not going to go too much into because I've said it all before, but I am doing a hairdressing and an accounts. Anyhow, it's also coming up to Autumn which means I need new stuff to keep me warm, so I've stuck it all on a little wishlist for myself to remember stuff that I am going to need.

Here it is.

I know these things aren't just for college but I do need them, that's my excuse anyhoodles. 

1. Pink pocket jumper and skinny jeans - this year I am going to introduce lots of knitwear into my wardrobe, I think there is nothing better than have a huge jumper and a comfy blanket to snuggle into on a cold day, there's going to be lots of them coming. Also I haven't worn jeans in at least a decade, I do love to wear dresses but sometimes it's just so nice to wear something else.

2. Magenta double breasted coat - I love this coat, it's not just for the colour either. I've always wanted a proper grown up coat like this and I think I will be getting one.

3. Animal print scissors - I actually didn't realise you could get animal print scissors, but I spotted them on eBay one day while trying to find out how much a new pair of scissors would cost. I know some people might think they're unprofessional but pish posh, I like to introduce fun stuff into my day.

4. I'm a sucker for back to school stuff, I love getting brand new cute notepads and new pens it reminds me of actually going back to school. I'm going to say it, I miss it, I miss seeing all my school friends and swapping stories about our summers. I'd love to go back and relive it.

5. Pink train case - it doesn't have to be pink, ah ok that's a lie of course it does. I want a decent storage case, I'm going to need one for putting my kit into one place so I can get around easily.

6. Brown UGGS - I have a pair of black ones which I've had for a couple of years now and although the lining is still so cozy and warm I'd quite like another pair because they look battered. I personally love UGG boots, I think they look so good with everything from a skirt and leggings to skinny jeans and a cute top. I know they're so expensive but when you wear them as much as I do it's not so bad I guess. Lol.

So there we have it, is anyone going back to school or college?

Much Love
