Hello, I am very excited that you’re reading this today!
No particular reason, just that I finally feel like writing something that isn’t too heavy. I figure we would do something light like a little life update.
I have not been working. Mostly just sulking in my bedroom and swelling in some seasonal and Covid depression. :). I would like to be working… It would be ideal. BECAUSE… I just accepted an offer to Niagara College! Woo! Although being extremely low energy, this does have me very excited. I am moving confidently in the direction that I want to take my life in. So I am going to start with a Pre-Health program because we all know I struggled to attend class. I need to do a reset and a refresh which will feel very nice. I learned recently that the age at which you experience a trauma your brain can and will actually slow the process of taking in information. For a long time I have always said that I feel like my education or my intellectual level was lower than a lot of people around me and I really just related that to me not really applying myself in school. As well as that factor a lot of low level trauma I experienced was around high-school age, and some after as well. Although not really surprising I did find that shocking to some degree. It is so crazy because around November or December time I had mentioned to someone that I really felt like my brain was opening back up and I was even remembering information that I confidently knew, but was also having an easier time retaining different things. So slowly, as I’ve begun to process and heal from things in my past, I have felt myself open up more intellectually and that makes me really optimistic and hopeful as well. My goal will be to complete this program and eventually go into nursing. After that hopefully injectables and one day I will open my very own salon with the intent of having multiple! I’ve always had a desire to have more of an education since really struggling with feeling like I just was not intelligent. To actually brush back on that topic, the way it felt in my brain was kind of like a plateau. You know, it would incline to a certain amount of information that was in there, and then it would just flatline. Another example is if I was thinking really hard or felt like I was pushing myself to find information my brain would just sort of shut off or flatline, and that’s how I would describe that plateau feeling of my intellectual abilities. Now it doesn’t really feel that way, I still occasionally have an irritation in there but I am getting somewhere. I do not even know if what I am saying will translate to you guys. Here’s to hoping. Anyhow; bring on the student debt baby!
Another brief update as well… I restocked on my lash supplies, bought a table and redecorated so that I now have a little workspace and as soon as I can legally, will be taking lash clients! I will have my booking up through my website here so be sure to follow this Instagram account, that way you don’t miss out on any updates! So yeah, official announcement, I have started my boss babe journey.
I’ve been back to see more doctors for some more testing as well, so although I still have indigestion flare ups, breathing issues, extreme fatigue, weight fluctuation, and weird bleeding from some places, I am pushing forward, and trying to make the most out of whatever the hell the Government and WHO has got us going through. :).
Logging off for now my loves. Xx.
