After


After, originally uploaded by kegill.

It now only takes me a total of 15 minutes to dry and fix my hair. Before it took me 40. Very necessary improvement since I'm about to have to do this every morning for the next 10 months of my life.

Hallelujah!!

I have the best news ever. I get to go to cosmetology school in Harrison instead of Branson!!
I hadn't heard from the school since August, when I signed up, so I actually thought I might not even be on the list anymore. However, after talking to the instructor, she informed me she did away with the waiting list so I can go to Harrison! This is like a 6 minute drive vs. 45 min-1 hour (Branson traffic, etc) I can also now get a job in Harrison instead of worrying about that. Also, when I graduate, I will have a certificate for Arkansas instead of Missouri, so I'll be ready to start working. Otherwise I'd have to take a test to get a liscense for Arkansas. Hooray for good news! Oh yeah, it's also a little bit cheaper than the other school, by about $800 or so, cool... But it starts on Jan. 4th instead of the 11th like I thought, so the countdown has dropped to 4 days!! Ahh!
I'm going to a party tonight for New Years, and it's conveniently located in the apartment behind mine, so no worries about getting in a wreck! ☺
Happy New Year everyone!!
-by the way- I did not win the decorating contest, I didn't win anything! But the people who won live in the more expensive apartments located right by the manager's office, so maybe location was a problem. Or maybe I was simply defeated. Oh well, maybe next year.

Glass Day

Today I was with glass all day. Ed and I put up a big chandelier at UAMS. We had a fun time with all the rednecks who had obviously not seen much glass/art stuff in their life. One said after seeing a picture of what the chandelier would look like "That looks like a bad hair cut! HAH", while another said, "All I can say about that is, it's different" That's the only word he could think of? Wow.. Then we took a chandelier down and moved another one at the Rivermarket Artspace. After a loong day of working (starting at 6 am), we came back home. It's also Mom's birthday, soooo Happy Birthday Mom!

The day after...

The day after Christmas is not a very fun day. It's a day of taking decorations down, and that is no fun. I still don't know if I won anything for the decoration contest. If I didn't even get a place that will be sad :) I do get to play with all my new toys though, including a new video game that I've been playing since I woke up. Today is my day off though, so I can do what I want. I'm going to Little Rock tomorrow to help Ed put up a gigantic chandelier at the UAMS place there. It is also Mom's birthday.
16 Days until Cosmetology school starts.

Merry Christmas Day!

Merry Christmas! I think today is the latest I've slept on Christmas day before. I'm usually up at 8:00 waiting on everyone else to get up to open presents. I slept till 10:45 today! What's up with that. Anyway, I'm about to open stockings and presents with Caleb and Freddie. Last night we opened a few presents, and I got a "Chi" (very good hair straightener) and some Bath & Body Works stuff from Caleb. Hope everyone is having a wonderful Christmas!

Merry Christmas

Hello! It seems like I'm all about doing what my Brother does :) but that's alright, because I think everyone does this blog thing now. I am getting ready for Christmas, Caleb will not leave me alone about presents, every night "can we open just ONE present tonight??" This coming from someone who claims not to like Christmas.. Uh huh.. Anyway, I don't know much about blogs yet so please bear with me. I hope someone will read this : )
