You may remember that around this time last year I went to Nail School to start my VTCT Nail Technology course; if not you can see the posts HERE and HERE...
...So what's happened since then I hear you ask?!
Well, I made a good start with it all, then I made the fatal error of deleting a whole heap of my pictures and files thinking they were backed up when they bl**dy weren't!!! I totally lost heart, felt incompetent and sort of just, gave up! As you may be aware from my Depression Awareness post, I've had other stuff to deal with and just wasn't capable of getting it back on track...

...But, now I have my motivation and passion back in spade-loads! :) I have taken a fresh look at my books, reorganised my tech kit and the nail room, and printed out all of my homework tasks so they are easier for me to read through, notate and digest. Even as a blogger I'm old skool and mostly prefer the ol' pen to paper method; also no worry of deleting it LOL!
I even pulled out my uniform for the first time in months, I'd almost forgotten what it looked like and really had forgotten about my cute lil badges!
Ideally I'm aiming to do my exams and assessment in January, completing all my other tasks and case studies in the meantime... Given the recent mountains I've had to climb, I'm not going to put too much pressure on myself but I think it's do-able :) Look out for future posts on my progress and a peek behind the scenes, I can't wait to share something a bit different with you guys!
I must thank Isis Beauty Academy for their continued support of my studies, for their feedback and for the help they have offered me in structuring my study and tasks going forward. Wonderful ladies!

Well done for keeping on going! Its hard work and I totally understand where you're coming from that sometimes other things in life just force us to put things on the back burner for awhile.
