The rumors are true! Thank you all so much for the prayers not only for my state board test but also for me while I was in school. I feel completely grateful knowing that so many people were praying! As a result, I am now a California licensed Cosmetologist for hair skin and nails. But lets be honest, you really only want me working on your hair. I avoided waxing appointments like the plague while in school and artificial nails is just one aesthetic I will never understand. If you're supposed to wear gloves when working with the chemical then who decided it was a good idea to mix em together and fixate them to your fingers? It's just weird to me ok? Sorry again if thats your thing. My thing is having clean fingernails I guess. The point is, I'm done and that feels really, really refreshing. About 11 months ago on October 20th I showed up for the first day of school and now almost a year later, Im walking away with a license for cosmetology. Good game. But glad that season is over for me. Except that I would do it all again even if it meant failing state board and never getting a license (dont tell my parents though, they funded the whole operation). I would though because it was during my time in cosmetology school that God chose to cure me of my narcissism. Or at least some of it. #godofirony
And so for all of the complaining I did, for all of the "free time" I didnt have (which I now realize was actually being used more or less as wasted time before) and for all of the weird, gross, cranky and creepy people I dealt with, I can see where God's hand was in all of it, drawing me to a better understanding of him and what kinds of things he can use to teach his children. And how my comfort is far less important than my need for humility and to learn over and over again that this movie is not about me. And so for that I would do all eleven months again. True Story.
But I dont have to because I passed state board so lets just rejoice in that!
