Feelin' Good...

So I've been getting crazy into makeup lately, probably because that's all I watch on youtube these days. It amazes me the way you can completely change someone's face and entire appearance just with a little powder or creme. I've decided that I still want to do hair, but I want to do makeup now on top of that. I want to totally change the way someone looks, enhance what beauty they already have, through their hair & makeup and make them feel better than they ever have before. Seeing someone walk out with confidence after giving them a great cut/style/highlight/color/etc is an incredible feeling, I can't imagine how much better it'd feel to see them smiling and their eyes lighting up because I made them feel beautiful. I don't want to just make people feel better about their outward appearance, I want to reflect on the outside how they look on the inside...incredibly cheesy, I know. I've been going to kandeethemakeupartist.blogspot.com like it's my job, she's seriously inspired me to get into it. I know this sounds totally meaningless to most people, but it's something I've grown increasingly more passionate about the more I've learned and observed. I can't wait to get a job and be out there doing what I love...and making money so that I can buy some nice makeup. Hah!

Today, Darcy told me to do something that I have somehow never thought about doing. She told me I should get a bulletin board and put up pictures of goals I want to accomplish, whether long or short term. I had mentioned how I wanted to start buying really nice makeup and hair products, but it wasn't something I could afford right now, so she told me to put up pictures of those things I want so that I have a visual to keep me motivated. I'm not sure why I've never thought of this, but it seems brilliant. If I hang it up in my spare room, I'll see it every time I get on the computer (way too often) and want to work that much harder to acheive whatever goals I've posted.

I need to say something to you, Megan...I'm so thankful for you everyday, seriously. You've been my best friend for so long now, and we've been through an incredible amount together. I don't know where I'd be without your love and support. I realized that today when you talked to me about everything going on, I appreciate it more than you know. I absolutely hate that you live so far away, but it's alright, I have a feeling we'll live much closer to each other some day, and it makes me happy to know that you're enjoying yourself down there. Thanks for everything girl, I love you & I can't wait to see you in a couple weeks! :]
