Hair Care :)

Hey Guys,


just a short blog to give you all some insight into my hair care:)

My hair colour is natural blond not bright but kinda on the dirty blond side, my hair was always long ever since I was young.
I dyed my hair back in secondary school a dark brown and I still have it that colour now but its starting to brighten up on its own and it looks kinda nice so I'm gonna see what way it comes out for the summer and if I like it I might keep it that way.
My hair length was down to my hip which is pretty long I hated washing it so..... I got it cut :( It is now just below my shoulder.
I like it and I don't... I was so used to long hair but having it shorter is much easier to manage.
I always had straight hair even d'oh my hair has a natural wave to it, I didn't like it but now that it is shorter I love the wave I get when my hair is just washed and dried.

Some of the products I use are Aussie but I have just changed them ad ill show you the new ones that I am now using. I have a hair straightener but since I like my hair wavy/curly now I don't use it that much so I didn't add it in the photo.

What's In My Bag....

Hey Guys,


Sent off my last test should get the next part of my course in the next 10 days :) with my test results....

While I'm waiting I thought Id do a What's In My Bag... I was cleaning my bag out and thought maybe I should take a photo of everything that is in it and tell you guys about it!
I'm not mush of a bag person I don't go for the newest bag out or high street brands as I rarely even have my bag with me anyway, all I carry is my phone ( If I even remember that ), my house keys and my purse.

The bag that I have now cost me I think about €10 if even that in Penny's (Primark).





In my bag you have :

my purse
A USB stick
a pack of pens
my mobile phone
a Subway card
a Tesco Club Card reg form
change
Dentist Appointment Card
Pencil sharpener
Mint Sweet
Receipt
Make Up Bag
Fergie Perfume


As you can see I don't carry around that much with me;)

Kilroy's College


Hey Guys

So maybe I should have done this when I first got my starter pack from the college....but better late than never! So this is the Blue Folder you get in the post with all of your college papers and information stuff.





This is what comes in the pack
You get your Text Book, Test Paper, Paper and Pen, Information pack, Course Work to read.


This was the first part of the course and behind it is the plastic folder I keep it in .


These are some notes that I took, I keep all notes, ideas and photos in the same folder
( pictured behind )


This is what the test paper looks like
 already did this test and got 97% :)
the folder I keep it in


This is the hard back folder I keep my present course work in







I didn't want to have just plain boring black folders, I wanted something that was fun and colourful and that would brighten up my desk ( when I get it ) ha  when something is fun you don't mind doing it but when its boring you get " board" and don't like doing it so get some funky folders and have Fun Studying : )

How I Study....From Home

My Little Routine

I get up at half seven every morning, before I get my son up for his creche, I make his lunch, get his clothes ready plus an extra set as he is potty training ( doing great over two months and no accidents ). When everything is sorted I get  washed and dressed by half eight I get my little boy up, after he has his breakfast and a little play around we head off to the creche at about half nine : )
When I get back home I have my breakfast and at half ten  start my studying ... I set at my dinner table as I still haven't found the right desk that I want : ( I study until about two or 12  all depends on if I need anything from the library. I try to go over my notes about 2-3 times. I study nearly everyday I take Friday off to just relax and give myself a break. Ill do a post with some pictures of what you get in the pack when you start the course with Kilroy's College.

I'm Back....

Hey Guys,


So for the last few weeks now well nearly two months I haven't been able
to sign into my blog :(
But Yay.... here I am finally I got to sign in I have loads of updates for you all.
Anyways.... I finally got my exam results and I got....DRUM ROLL.....
97% YAY....  : )
I got the second part of my course it was about keeping your work space and tools clean, what kind of viruses there is, different lighting and how if can effect you make up, how to prepare your skin for make up, different types of make up for different types of skin.
So for my test it was all about how to clean a certain tool or explain what a certain item is used for.
It was pretty easy....well so I thought... when I had answered all the questions I thought
" that was easier than I thought it would be"... then I seen I had to do  facial on someone and take pictures as I was doing it.
Iv done everything now so I'm really hoping that I got at least a 70%, I nearly sure I did well on the question part but the facial part I'm not to sure about. While I was away I thought up loads of new blog posts to keep me going until I get the next part of my course.
I hope you like reading my blog and I promise that as soon as I get to practice my make up skills there will be loads and loads of pictures up and plenty of new blog posts  : )

Waiting........

So....
Its nearly two weeks..wait! no I thing its more like just over a week since
I sent back my exam paper, I still haven't heard anything back yet:(
I'm just hoping that its in the post and on its way.
I'm soooo ready to just get back into studying, I really just cant wait to
actually apply makeup :) i so want the next part of the course to be the application part:-)
Iv been getting very board lately iv been messing around with different types of styles with the make up i have.. which isn't that much but i have been starting to pick a few little things every week just to help build up a kit:)
Boredom is so doing my head in, its that bad that I have straightened my hair nearly every day
and that's huge for me as my hair is soooo thick and so long ( down to my hip ) it takes me ages to straighten it, like that's how board i am. So anyway because i have been playing round with my hair i have decided that its time to give it a good cut and colour my natural colour is blond but i have been auburn, brown, purple and orange but that one was a mistake ha and not very nice:)
I'm going to get it cut up to just under my shoulder so it better to manage and ill probably get it in like a light  brown with blond highlights and maybe a fringe? or side fringe? haven't made up my mind yet :)
I'm very attached to my hair i love the thoughts of getting it cut and coloured but when it comes to the crunch i do be like aawww maybe just a trim.
I was thinking that until i get my results back with my next module i will put up some little
blogs like a Whats In My Bag!, My Top 5 Must Haves!, stuff like that:)
