Thinking about going to a Beauty School?

The art of doing hair and makeup is quite an attractive idea for a lot of people. 
More and more people are now attending Cosmetology schools or Makeup schools.
But it's not so easy trying to figure out which school to go to. There are a lot of schools and available to everyone, but which would be best?!?!

I went to both Cosmetology and Makeup school...I've also researched a lot even after I finished both...
and I have learned a lot. From my mistakes and researching. 

If you are a fellow beauty lover and you're thinking of going for either Cosmetology/Makeup...
Here's the breakdown of my advice and tips for you!
Make sure to watch the video for the full details :)

1. Research schools near you.
2. Online research for reviews
3. Visit Campus
4. Talk to the Administrator
5. Talk to the students
6. Talk to the teachers
7. Go home and think about it
8. After deciding which one to go to
9. Don't miss days!!!
10. Study Study Study
11. Cosmetology School & the State Board Test
12. Make Up School
Last, but Not the least......
You just got to know YOU! Your talent and Your worth!

Woman's Intuition

From my experience and what I've seen.. A woman's intuition is definitely something you must learn to trust. Even when I questioned the feeling, it never failed to show me the truth. 
But first, you gotta learn how to Identify the feeling. Don't let paranoia, or not being able to trust be confused with the feeling of your intuition. And that's something we all gotta learn on our own. 

I use to be type of girl who will give people as many chances as I can bare...even if my heart already aches with all kinds of pain...Then I learned to trust and listen to my intuition... I learned to pick and choose who to trust, who to believe, who to leave, and so on.. 

Looking back at my life... I could have saved myself a lot of heartaches if I just listened to that little voice inside me.. telling me to walk away.. leave.. they're no good.. can't trust them.. they're lying...etc.. But I was always thinking a lot of what ifs.. what if they're telling the truth.. what if they'll change.. what if i'm just being paranoid?!?! haha.. But as I learned, my intuition was always right at the end.. 

You can't fool a woman's intuition.. which is why we all gotta learn to be more in-tuned with ourselves.. 
with that gut feeling inside that tells us.. there's danger around the corner.. don't cross just yet... don't drink that! haha.... But anyways, i'm sure you get my point. 

So ladies... when you get that feeling inside you.. that something is wrong.. and no matter what you do, it just won't go away... Most likely your intuition is right.. something isn't right. Don't freak out.. be calm and patient.. the truth will eventually come out.

Growing Up

It's fascinating how when I'm laying down trying to sleep all these thoughts passes through my mind.... but when I sit here and decide to write... i get a brain fart. lol  
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
As a kid, I couldn't say I was a perfect child.. I was far from it. I always push the limits and my mom's buttons. I was a good girl when my dad was around tho.. other than that.. I guess I've always been the rebellious type. I wasn't like a bad kid either.. I just like to stay out a little longer than I'm suppose to. Be at the neighbors when I was suppose to be home. Maybeeee not listen at times... and perhaps a bit of a picky  eater. hehe... 
Growing up the way I did.. I can't say I had a normal childhood.. or what not... But looking back at it now, although a lot of it was tough and hard to deal with.. I wouldn't change anything. 
I have come to learn a lot of life lessons.. one being that EVERYTHING DEFINITELY HAPPENS FOR A REASON. May it be good or bad, it happens because we have to go through it to learn a lesson with/about life. Not saying that everybody learns the lessons tho. It really depends on how you choose to take and see the situation/outcomes.
Looking back, there had been a lot of times where I felt like everything was just crashing down.. and i was at the bottom of the ground... and I'm just so glad and proud to be sitting here today writing this blog... because I have overcome all those obstacles, and I sit here today knowing that I'm a much stronger, and better person than ever. Still not perfect, but it's all good :)
I still have flaws, and imperfections... but now I know It doesn't matter what comes my way, I will be able to get through it! I'm also able to help other people go through their problems. I love how I have the ability to look at things in a different perspective. It doesn't matter if I am the one that's angry, It takes a little bit, but i can step back and just see things in somewhat a brighter light... if not in a brighter light.
I'm able to deal with situations I've dealt with since I was younger.. A LOT BETTER! I use to always just want to stand up for myself when i'm being pushed down.. But now I've learned when to do that and when to just step back and brush it off.  I'm a lot more understanding and sympathetic. 
Also, I have learned who to care for. I use to be the girl who just cares for whoever is around me. Someone that wanted to make everyone happy. A pushover as someone called me. 
Now, I'm definitely NOT going to waste my time on anyone who isn't genuine. I will not be a bitch. That's not my thing, but I just know deep inside that I don't have to care for that person. That they are not worth it. I wouldn't be going out of my way in the middle of the night if they called me, and needed a ride or something in the morning... or what not. I have learned to pick and choose who to be truly kind to. 
I will only treat you better than you treat me. Use me, and I will be just be invisible to you. 
Sounds fair right? Be true to me and i will be here when you need me. No matter what time of the day it is... I'll find a way to help you. 

Speaking of being there.. I use to be the girl that's there all the time may it be a dinner, party, etc, or just to talk. Now, i'm not that girl who will be there at every party or social event. I am the girl who will be there when you need someone the most. I am the girl who enjoys a more intimate time with friends.. Not in a party environment. I am someone that's a phone call/text away. To be honest, i know i probably suck at texting or calling... but I try.. I do promise tho, if those people who matters to me calls/text me and I know they need me... I will be there for them any way I can. 

Now, that I'm 24.. I'm not so much interested in a lot of things that I was very in to before. Right now, I just want to make $$ and get my own place, enjoy all the other things that life has to offer. Like travelling! I would love to travel the world. Sometimes I feel guilty that I'm not like how I was before. I'm not umm a socialite. haha... I feel a little bit more introverted.. 
Maybe it is true.. but I can't really say anything about it... I want to say i'm sorry.. but deep inside.. I'm not. I guess my desire in life just changed, which is totally acceptable right?? 

Although....sometimes I feel like I need to grow up more.... It's probably my little impatient personality acting up.. But at times I feel like I should be further along than where I am now. Maybeee if I didn't party.. haha just kidding.. Like I said I wouldn't change anything.  

Anyway, I guess that's enough jibber jabber for now.. till next time!
