Celebrations

Friday morning I drove Joel to work and then headed out to Helensvale for my trial day at Another Dyemension. One of the staff brought her mom in for me to use as a model instead of the owner. I foiled, cut, and upstyled her hair. I felt really happy with my work and the owner, Joanne, was very impressed and said she was happy with my work. I felt very confident and relaxed going into this trial, unlike my trial at Heaven. The staff were all super friendly and helped me out whenever I needed.

Joel has got his tools all unpacked and lovingly organized. All the other mechanics are pretty impressed by his supplies! He stayed late on Friday to set up and the foreman was impressed by how organized he is.

On Saturday I was lucky enough to Skype onto the wedding of my very good friends Jill and James. I really wish I could have been there to celebrate in the flesh, but glad I could still be a part of it from afar! Thanks to Lisa for bringing her iPad and being my camera lady! I had a freak out that I wouldn't be able to see it, as five minutes before the ceremony my internet time ran out! I grabbed my credit card, recharged for another hour on rip off rate jimojo, and made it just in time! All though the sound was a little bumpy on my end, I got to see it all and it was a beautiful wedding. I skyped into the reception later and got to toast the new Mr and Mrs Genyn. All the best, you two are awesome!



I was really missing my friends after that and feeling kind of down, so I headed upstairs to the roof to read. My phone rang and it was Joanne, the owner of the salon I trialed at - I got the job!!! The staff voted and out of all the girls who trialed they all picked me! Jo was so happy with my work and said I was her secret pick from the first interview. That made my day! I go in on Friday for a color class (they have just brought in a new organic color line from Europe) and we'll figure out my schedule from there! I feel like this salon will be a good fit for me as it's run in a similar way to Applauz.

Sunday morning I woke up to breakfast made by Joel. It was a gorgeous morning so we sat outside on our balcony to enjoy the sunshine.


We spent the day running errands and grocery shopping. Still trying to figure out which store has the best prices. We did some comparisons but it's a tough call. Around 5:30 we headed to the beach for a walk. I love the colors of the sand and water at this time. There's a slightly pinkish tone due to the setting sun.


Not much planned for today. I picked up some magazines to read and will be at the library for a few hours catching up on all my internet time. I can't wait till our Virgin tops up again on the 23rd!
