Lonely
Well I am living the life of a single woman. Ok, so thats an exaggeration, but Katie planted the image on Sunday and I went with it. Kyle and Brent are both working for Dad in Vancouver from Monday to Thursday for the next few months. Its going to be hard. In fact, when the reality of it set in, my tender strawbury heart cried. I mean, thats living in complete solitude for four days. I've never lived all alone- all alone at night, in the morning, when I get home from work, cooking for one... Its not me. Some people like their alone time, well I do too, just not all the time, or so extremely. I need people to talk to, someone to watch tv with, even just the presence of someone else in my home. Its lonely, just plain lonely.
Tonight I get to play soccer. Im excited. Its been about nine months and im rearing and ready to go. I just hope no one lands hard on my foot (doug) because soccer is just too good and fun to give up due to the possibility of hurting my foot. I cant live life like that. I just cant.
Going to the doctor today to find out about my face fungus. Its actually not nearly as bad as it was, but its still there a little bit.
Across the street is starting to look like a real bus depot. The waiting seats were put up a few days ago, followed by the clear plexi-glass stuff. In fact an East Indian man enjoys sitting there just for fun. No buses come by yet, so why else would he sit there for hours on end, if it wasnt for his own personal enjoyment?

Sharing Time
I found out last week that my class is doing sharing time today. Needless to say, adding that task onto my busy schedule left me feeling quite thrilled. I decided to play a fishing game. I really liked the fishing games when I was in primary so why not?
What do I w rite about? Yesterday was a long day at work. I dont want to really go there though. Im excited to somewhat relax today and tomorrow. My face is itchy. Something's wrong with it. At first I thought I was getting acne, but there's no acne, just red blotchy itchiness. Amay convinced me that it was an allergic rash. I thought it could be from the new foundation I got from that hairshow in Vancouver. So I stopped using that about a week ago- and nothing. Still there, still itchy, still driving me crazy. Delanie made this special cream for me with her oils. It smells so good, and it sooths the itching, but it hasnt dissipated. (Im not sure if thats the correct usage of dissipate, but it feels right) I wouldnt mind scratching my face off right about now.
We're listening to church music from the internet. Its this zion internet radio and it plays tons of different church music. I quite like it.
Also, as I forgot that Jawnny reads my blog sometimes, so I have to go easy on the girly stuff. Sorry Jawn. I went for a run at the damn the other day, and thought I was going around it, but ended up on the parkway. So, I ran down the parkway for a while. It was interesting. It was the bit outside of Nanaimo, where it feels like you're in the middle of no where. It was a good run though. My first forty minute run. Weird how somedays, you feel as though you could go forever, and other times you want to stop after five minutes.
Well my sweetie's making me my favorite breakfast- a fried egg and cheese sandwhich, so I must be off!

Mudsy Moment
So, yesterday I made fresh salsa for the first time and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Today there was a little bit left which was mostly eaten with the leftover fajita stuff for lunch (we had it last night with the missionaries.) When I got home from work this evening I was quite hungry. As I was putting food away (that Kyle left out) I came across the salsa. There was only a little bit left, but I didnt want to throw it away, it was too good. There we also a few dorito crumbs left, but they were too small to indivually dip in the small amount of salsa. So, I came up with an incredibly smart idea, and dumped the little chips into the salsa and ate it with a spoon. Upon experiencing my gleeful combonation, it struck me that that was such a mom thing to do

singing singing all the day....
woke up at quarter to eight today to a gloomy dark room and an husband-less bed. Kyle was up at four to catch the 5:15 ferry with Dad. Sounds as though today would be one to match the gloomy weather- but Im determined to not let that happen to me. Yesterday I was grumpy- not necessarily with everyone but, it was like everything Kyle did bothered me. In fact, he was grumpy and that probably bothered me the most. Its because that special time of the month is approaching, I can feel it. Why not try and conquer those hormones this time?
Last night Chelsea Ziggler was my model at the Cutting Room. It was fun. Learned lots, and she really liked it which is always good. She even gave me a hug afterwards. She's a nice girl. She really wants to get married, which I find funny.
We took our car into bishop russell to be fixed because the clutch needs to be replaced. Thats a large expense. In the meantime we are driving a rental car which happens to be almost the exaclty the same as whinny, whith the exception that the rental is a little darker skinned (gold).
It feels weird to drive automatic again. My hand always reaches down to change gears, and when I start the car I go to put my foot down on an imaginary clutch. Also, this car feels a lot smaller in width-like I could fit anywhere with it- the sky's the limit. All in all its a hoot, other than the yucky new-car smell that makes one car sick.
Today, we're having the missionaries over for din din. It's Elder Perry's last night here and Kyle reserved it last month. Although I enjoy elder perry, this was not something I approved of, because Im so busy, I never know whats going to be happening. Well it turns out it happens to be on a night that I have my mental health class. As a result, Im going to be missing it. This disappoints me because I learn a lot at that class, and tonight both bethany and amay would be there. Normally I would have just re-scheduled but its elder perry's last night, so I cant just ditch out and leave them by themselves. At least thats what Kyle says.
Voted yesterday. Thats always something to be proud of. Everyone says that the youngfolk dont vote, which is true, but at least I dont fit into that category. And I AM a youngfolk. My theory on the matter is, young folk dont vote because they arent very educated in the different parties and what they mean. Im not educated either. I think if they were educated, they would have opinions and would care more. Just a theory. Maybe Im the only one who's not educated. Now I feel sheepish.

la la la la laaaaa
So today i had my first one on one class with Edwin. It was good. We did a pretty basic cut (although I myself had never done the layering part before) and then he tested my blow drying skills which he said were good. Apparently thats one of malaspina's downfalls, the students come out not being able to blow-dry very well. The thing about it is, it takes patience. And now my arm is sore. The price is paid for having pewny muscle-less arms. Now I need a model to do the same haircut on for next week. I dont know who I should get. The only people I really know now, or keep in contact with is family. Any suggestions? I need someone with shoulder length or longer hair, basically. Well gotta get ready for family home evening- its our turn to teach tonight.

Cheery Cheery Day
I dont know why, but I just feel cheery right now. Perhaps its because I just got off work, or that I no longer have a million things to do tonight. Only enough to keep the evening full. Right now there is a list of haircuts that are needed: Doug, Evan, Dave Russell, Angie Vanderleek (she wants colour)...hmm, is that everyone? Its hard because I spend most of my time at work, and no one wants to come in to get their hair done at the Cutting Room because its pricey and I also dont mind getting paid in full rather than what I would get at the cutting room, but at the same time I need time for me. According to Jordan Poosy comes first. Jordan came to the cutting room today to get his hair done. It was nice. He didnt even tell me he was going to make an appointment, I just went to work and he was in my column on the schedule. The column had been vacant up until then. I get to do an up-do for a girl on Saturday. Its parksville's prom. Good good.
Oh yeah and one more thing. As Laura is a blackeyed susan, and fwuffs are bean and pea, I felt left out and last week the twins went through a list of options for me and (one of which was cabbage) and they decided I was Strawbry. Yes a red strawberry with a tuft of hair ontop thats always changing... I like it.

Goodbye Weekends
Well with my new job, yes that's right-Im hired, I get Sunday off and then its back to work on Monday. Did I mention that I also work on Saturday? This means that i have gone from a year of three day weekends to one random day off during the week and sunday. It feels like Im so much busier. When they hired me I was told that I would start out at four days a week and once I got busier they would move me up to five. Well, first week and im working five days this week. Oh well, Im getting paid so I cant complain. I like it there and Im so excited and feel so lucky for getting hired. Woo hoo! I found a job! Now, if I had known that it would happen so fast, I might have given myself a break before looking. No, that wouldnt have worked though. I had to go to the cutting room while I was still fresh in their minds. They're in the process of making my own personal cards. I've never had a card before. Im so blessed.
Hmm lets see... other than that what's been going on? Well I got a parking ticket this morning. I guess I should say that Kyle got it because he's the one who parked there. Right now our whole half of the street has been ripped up and there were these cement barricades in lining the side walk and blocking our driveway to the parking lot. So we had to park on the road for the past few nights. Last night Kyle parked on the other side of the road but facing the wrong way. SO DUMB. Not Kyle, but dumb that we got a ticket for that. It was issued about 10 mins prior to me leaving for work too. Why didnt I leave earlier????! Anyway, how cheap and mean is that? What kind of a parking guy looks on a road that's being ripped up and people cant park where they pay a monthly fee to park? I feel I have been cheated my rights.
Well if you take a look at the last sentence of each above paragraphs, you will notice that I have contradicted myself. interesting isnt it?
