Life Update


So its been like a year since ive been on here. I know thats horrible. But i wanted to do a life update and im hopeing to start writing on here more. So I am at a new salon yay!! I love it...Alot of unpleasant things happened at the other place and the move was a great choice...I work with women that have been doing this for years and are just mature and dont have drama. I am also looking for a second job.. I just really want to pay off some bills and quickly.. I would like to find a waitressing job because ive already got the experience and it would work best with my schedule..Im also currently taking a class online at the jr college.. its intro to sociology. Its been tough for me to stay focussed though and ive decided that this next semester i want to take classes on campus. I think it just helps me to stay focused... so thats my basic life update lol...im keeping my fngers crossed that i can keep up with writing on here :-)

I Finished My Room!!!!

Yay!! I have pretty much finished my room...there are still a few things that need to be done but overall its finished...it took a lot of work but I am in love with it and I feel so relaxed in here now.. In the first picture is an a ball that I got after Christmas on clearance at Target....I paid $.83 cents...

my parents made this shelf when I was little and it was just plain wood...i love it put wanted to give it a different look so I painted it the same brown as my trim and painted the pegs and braces with silver paint to make them look metal...then I taped craft paper to the backs of the hearts










this hutch holds my TV and laptop....



I found this chair at an antique store for fifteen dollars...The material has pinapples on it...its very differnt but i like it...i got the curtin at Ross for six dollars and behind it is shelves that hold my clothes since I don't have a closet






This is my wall of closets...I love how this turned out...i wanted to put paris stuff everywhere...Its my dream to go there someday....





The color on the walls is called timeless by the way...I hope you all like it...
I'm very happy with the way it turned out... XOXO Mandy
