Working Hard at School

This is me at school...jamming out to my music before a test. It's hard work there, I tell you. Sometimes I don't know what to do with myself it's so much work. :P Tomorrow I have two written tests to take, plus my 7-hour practical floor test, and we haven't really reviewed for anything at all. I sure hope I'm ready. I think if I do fail anything it's going to be the written test, which I can just retake on Tuesday if I have to, so it wouldn't be a big deal anyway. But if I pass, I will finally be able to actually be on the floor and have clients!! I must say I'm pretty sick of just working on my manikin. She is getting boring and her hair is starting to be in kind of bad shape, probably because I'm slightly careless with it and I don't really care much if I scorch her hair or rip it out. Or burn her face or scalp. (Note: I will not treat real people the same way, no worries. Unless their name is Annabell, in which case I may accidentally think they're my manikin and we would have problems.) Our guest artist today was a nail technician, and guess who the model was? Yup, you guessed it. My friend Anika. No...just messing, it was me. The thing with being a nail model is that usually they do really weird things on your nails, and they never do all ten fingers. So I went to the temple tonight with one bright purple glittery nail, one green, purple swirly glittery nail, and two french-manicured nails, the last three being witch-like long. Ugh. Luckily, they were nice at the temple and said my nails were fine, which is good because the only thing that can take them off is filing (no acetone for this kind...) and I think I would have used about 56 emery boards if I'd tried to do it that way.
