Wondering…
So I am wondering if I am going to ever really be able to keep up with a blog on a some what consistant basis. I think I would be happy with a post twice a month. I guess I will consider this my “fresh start” day. (insert a big smile and shoulder shrug here.) I spend so much time on myspace and gmail…but this somehow just slips my mind. I guess that sometimes I figure I’m just not that interesting. Anyway, I want to do this to teach myself some discipline. We shall see how I do this time around. Remember to check out my other blog as well. It is dedicated to my artsy creative side…and I really want to start developing it.
Let’s see…I am starting a new adventure in a few days…COSMETOLOGY SCHOOL!!! I am very excited. For various reasons, I have not been working or in school for the last year and a couple months. It was really nice in the beginning. I got a lot of projects done and trained to cute puppies to be less than horribly behaved. They are actually pretty good. The only thing I really have left to break them of is their exciteablitly…which should lessen some once they hit the two year mark. Meet Ginny…short for Ginerva…and Bellatrix. They are so sweet and a great source of entertainment. These pictures are fairly old…I figured I would show what we started with. Plus…they don’t sit so still these days and are not big fans of the camera.
This is them cudding…they were quite cute.

Here they are sharing a big natural bone. Totally grosses me out…but they love them and the bone keeps them occupied for the longest time. It even distracts them when people come calling…for the most part.
Anyway…on with the last year catch up so I can keep up on this blog. Along with the girls, I got in to photoshop. It is so much fun! Visit marcellabella.wordpress.com to see some of my creations.
I also started my own business as a consultant for Passion Parties Inc., which is great. I love the freedom that comes with running my own business, but have chosen to put it on the back burner to go back to school…which is the big news right now…as you know from the start of this entry.
I will be attending Paul Mitchell the School in Portland. When I am done I will be able to do everything related to body and beauty. Cuts, color, style, chemical treatment, make-up, waxing, body wraps, mud treatment, mani/pedicure, acrylic/silk nails, basic massage and more. Many people were suprised that I have decided to make such a drastic change in direction after gaining such extensive formal education, but most are excited and see Cosmetology as a perfect fit for me. I think…scratch that…know it is going to be fabulous. I have always been the creative kind, and fought against the constrictions of the so called “professional” career choices. I am extremely ready to jump in with both feet and create looks that meet peoples needs for personal expression. I will be in Portland five days a week, which will be hard, but well worth the outcome.
That’s all folks! At least for now. I am determined to be back.
