Free Blog #17

For my free blog I chose to do sports. As of right now I'm playing bowling and getting better for my surprise. During the summer I want to play soccer again and I hope that Sofia will play with me. I hope to spend more time with her since I'm in school and working during the night I do not get to see her. I want to spend more time with her and I will try to so that by incorporating soccer in our lives. I hope that she likes it and would be glad as well as if she does not like it.

Connections #17

This week all that I did was art, and that is my connection because art and hair goes hand in hand. They are related because you can create a piece of art in hair as long as you can and can handle hair. I love hair but is difficult for me to do my own hair, I like to work on others people hair as long as they let me. In art you need plan out what would next step as well as in hair. You need to know if what you are doing satisfy the customer because you can not go back and fix it. I remember when I did my first cut by my self and was nervous but my sponsor was not there for me, so I trusted my own knowledge. I was scared of messing with the hair, but I accomplish my goal as to what I wanted to get done. My boyfriend said to me not to worry and that it was only hair and that it would grow back. He was please to see me live my dream to learn and became a hairstylist. At lease I get a change to try it out. In conclusion, art and cosmetology goes hand in hand.

Field Trip # 18

- (I did it similar but smaller the idea was the same)



















On Wednesday, I went there and got a ride so I got to be there at 10:00 am. during the time I was waiting for her, Lucy was there and she was excited to see me. She ask about school and if I have apply for college or trade school. She also told me that if she was mean to me, she was sorry but that was the way she was. I told her not to worry that I was there so everyone can judge my work and if I'm doing something wrong to tell me so I can improve. She keep jocking with me all day long an I really enjoy her company. She also gave tips about working and the things
she said to me was that If I become a
"hairstylist" to work in a one place and start a book there and build my way up. People will start knowing an dhow I work and probably make some friends but the most important would be clients. Now a days new hairstylist change from place to place and their clients would not look for them, because they did not get time to spend with them. She was glad that I choose this career and told me that I will enjoy it every day. New people come in and talk to you sometimes even make your life better. I saw highlights getting done and I flat iron a mannequins and well as did a hair do that was a heart shape and then on the sides was braided.

On Tuesday, I went to my sponsor as usual. I was there at 1100 am., since is early I get to spend more time with my sponsor becasue the rush hour is mostly in the after noon. She was waiting for me and she was excited when I told her that I will be there for the whole day or you could say most of the morning. She told me that today I was not going to be with her instead I was handed to Barbara( a co-worker). That Barb was going to show me how to tease hair and use roller sets. She also told me that I was going to try it and see how dose it feels. I watch closely as Barb was teasing and older women's hair. She was working with two women and in one of those women she was also doing a perm. I got to see how does a perm start and finish. The solution that she put in the hair was strong and I felt dizzy since. It also upset my stomach and did not wanted to eat all day. After about two hours Marti ask me about how I felt and now a days, most people do not tease their hair and if they do they use heating curlers instead of rollers sets. I did learn so much this day and did not wanted to leave but I need to go get my daughter and go home.

Free Blog #16

In my free blog, I chose to have some free time for my self.
I needed to be alone and to forget all the things that are going on in my life. So on Friday, I went bowling at night with my boyfriend since my daughter was sleeping we left her with my sister and law. I had fun and my boyfriend and I had some time a lone to spend. He show me some tricks but I could not do them and we enjoy it a lot. I liked this weekend. All the stress that we had disappear for the moment and we enjoy our free time. We hope to do it again in the future,but this time take my daughter with us.

During this week I got to try something new. I tried eyebrow waxing. I tried on my mom's eye browns and she said that it did not hurt at all. That she did not notice which eye brown I did. I was please that Marti got to show me something new and she also explain to me the procedures as to waxing and the consequences if you wax the same spot twice. I did like to wax and look forward to do it again.

This week I had to think hard about having connections but I mange to think something. While I was writing my blogs I hit space and It came in some other language. I did not understand why an could not fix it. It happen in school and at my house but I hit EDIT HTML and kind of fix it. I had to have patience while writing my blogs, and that made think of hair, because I have to have patience to deal with people and the complains that they might give me while treating their hair. Or in the other hand while they keep talking and never be quiet and that might get annoying.

Connection #15

The movie that we saw while the rest of our class was away was "Departures". The film had different emotions and it show how the living eat the dead. Make up is a important part in the movie. They show how the dead need to be prepare for the after life. Two scenes that touch my heart was when the main actor sees the burning part is closing a door to this life and right after that birds fly off and they are together like in a pack. The same way we are, we stick together and we take off for the next life. Since I want to study cosmetology and that involves make up as well. I loved this movie and I learned so much too. About a father that did not forgot about his son even though that he was not with him, he still loved him until the very last day of his life.

Well, this Tuesday I went really early and was wating for Marti. She was late again and I observed the second part of a perm. She came in until 11:30 a.m. and was in a hurry because she had people waiting for her. She did not ahve any time for me but I still got to learned something new. I feel that everytime that I go she does not have time for me any more. She was close to me before but now she leaves me to fly solo. She will show me once and then I have to do it. She tells me that I learn fast and I also do it correctly. She bought me my clippers and two combs. one is for highlights and the other one I still do not know. Marti also gave me clipper cleaner and a brush to clean my clippers went I use it.

Tuesday April 6, 2010, I went to see my sponsor as always and she was there (hurray!!!!!)

I was excited for to today, I wanted to be surprise and at the end I was.

Marti, came in en minutes late, and told one of the girls there that I had to observed them until she acme in. I did as I was told and both of the girls were excited to see me since we did not see each other often. When she came in she call me to the office and started to talk to me like she was mad or something. (she was talking as a teacher). She said that the lesson for today was going to be highlights!!. We took the mannequin out and she was looking for gel. She said that we need to practice first and then I will be aloud to use real hair coloring. She explain the procedure and i follow her as she did it. I was nervous because this would be my first time doing it, I have only watched them get done. I tried first with a short hair mannequin and then with a long hair mannequin. She asked some questions about how I felt about highlights and I answer that I love highlights but in long hair it takes more practice than in shorter hair. At the end I rised out both of the mannequins and clean up all the mest that I did. I was excited and could not wait to tell my mom about my day.

On, April 1, 2010 I went to see my sponsor and she was there. She also apologize for not being there on Tuesday and she was embarrassed because she did not call me to let me know that she was not going to be there at 11 a.m.
Thursday, I was there at five and Marti was waiting for. I convince two friends of mine, to let me trim their hair. Both of my friends agreed and I worked my magic. They were pleased and i was happy as well. Marti did not helped me that much as before because she was busy with her clients. I left at 7:45 p.m. Before I walked out one of Marti co-workers started to talk to me about her career as a hairstylist. About how she enjoys being one and working as well.
In conclusion, I was happy that I got to do something instead of just watching and starting to be involved. I can not waite until Tuesday.
