Well, after I got home from Texas I found out that the studio I worked for was closing... ok... it was CLOSED. No warning for me- yep you can bet I was not a happy camper. I still am not very happy even after a few weeks- basically at the fact that I don't have a job or income anymore. If I was given some notice I could have been searching for a new job before the new semester started but that was not the case. This past semester has been really hard on me at work- and I had contemplated quitting multiple times, but I was NOT ready for this. I'm not going to go into detail because my blog is not private... so... my life has consisted of finishing projects that are undone- ie. scrapbook, journaling, cleaning house, working on YW stuff, actually going to the gym, cooking, relaxing, watching the Hills, etc. I have been trying to look at it as a blessing of some sort- and it wasn't until this week that i realized it was. In my 2nd week of job searching i was still at a loss for finding anything so I started thinking about going back to school. As you know- I do not enjoy school. Unless it has something to do with arts, etc. I could not think of any degree I would want to finish where I could find myself happy with a job- except dance or music. But I realized that I already had a Full Time job at a studio (which is rare) and that wasn't stable. I do not think I would like teaching in a school. So that's out of the picture.
Ever since my 1st year of college I have been telling people that my biggest regret was not going to hair school first. So... I started looking up hair schools in the valley... and went the next day to meet with them. Basically I'm starting cosmetology school in February at Earls. (If everything works out how I want) I am actually really excited!! Minus the fact that we are going to be in major debt and have like zero income- but hey that is the newlywed life right? We feel right about it- its good timing for our family and since we want to think about having kids in the next few years, I want to be done with school and have a flexible job. I am going to be so busy this semester... school Tuesday thru Saturday all day, then hopefully teach dance at night, and still try to be in the Easter Pageant!! It's going to be a crazy year, but well worth it!!
