Well hello there!
my name is helen,and i am a mature student....I am studying mature hairdressing NVQ2 for mature students...and today is my first day.........AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!
Things didn't go to well when i got out of bed at daft 'o'clock this morning....hubs was awake and had to wake little one out of bed for high school,got him ready and off he went....I made one single mistake....I DIDN'T LOOK IN THE MIRROR!!!...
so whilst i'm cultivating butterfly's in my stomach and everywhere else ....overnight,i've grown my first ever zit,my hair won't do as its told and i can't for the life of me rememeber where i left my braincell...i know i had it yesterday.....but its all been a blur today so far..
I baked this morning,buns and cookies for the older kids packing up,cleaned the kitchen and dining room and then brushed my alpaca fleece ,adjusted my college trousers,because they were huge...and basically got everything i needed to take this afternoon laid out on the bed.....BUT there's a problem,I ordered my hairdressers practise heads over 6 weeks ago and they still aren't here yet!So i called this morning and asked the company about their where abouts.....and basically i got a very rude woman o the other end of the phone who basically told me it was tough and i should get over it.......apparently they had been waiting for a big enough order to come through before they ordered any,which means there';s a possibility that NONE of us have got our hairdressing heads.......but i will find out when i get there tonight...
My hair dressing course starts at 5pm tonight,,I now finally have everything i could want for my course,i even managed to get myself a new car,okay so she's a bit beat up,she's a bit old,but for a 16 year old volkswagon golf she does alright...she's got 3/4 of a tank of petrol,a years MOT and 5 months Tax...so i don't have to worry about her thank goodness...
But what makes me more nervous is that i am going to be the oldest student they have ever had.......and i'm 42!!!!Its been along time since i was in a school room.....and thats what is making me so nervous....all the other mature students are 19 and 20...which makes me feel like a right granny...but they seem like a good bunch of girls and boys so i think i'll be fine...I am doing this college course for me.....and nobody else,i want to work,i want to have a purpose in life instead of a lady who sels her quilts and knitwear online and at local craft shows...i just want to do something that makes me happy...and thankfully kip (hubs) is encouraging me to go for it!!!
so wish me luck....HERE WE GO!!!
