Update/Ramble/Tattoo

Okay, Hello, I usually update/ramble on my other blog, but since this is the more active one, I thought, why not? Mix up a little bit of personal right in there, right?
Okay, SO. I've been Freelancing as a Stylist/Makeup Artist/Illustrator for a while now, and I have to say, I really like it. I don't know if I can ever do the proper office job - but then again, does anyone in this field have a proper office job?
I initially took this year off to figure out what I wanted to do with my life.. See, I'd spent every day since I was 7 thinking, "Oh, I want to be a Fashion Designer" but once I got started actually studying it, I realized its not for me. I think I'm pretty good at it, mind you, but just not for me. So essentially, during this year off, I've worked on various shoots to see if I want to be a Stylist - and I love Fashion and Styling, but here, I don't want anything to do with it.
Around this time I also realized that if I loved Makeup as much as I do - and I've been doing a lot of shoots for my friends, maybe I could do it professionally. After a few freelance gigs, I now KNOW that this is what I want to do for a living.
So, September 1st, I shall be starting a new journey. Studying Editorial, Prosthetic and Special Effects Makeup at the Delamar Academy in London. EEEEEEEEP. I've been meaning to talk about this for a while now - I only have to apply for the visa *fingers crossed*, but other wise, its official!

Lets see, what elsee... Oh! I got a new Tattoo this week.


This is my sixth tattoo, and an extention to the word "Always" I have on my arm. These are lilies btw, which I took a month to finalize (draw - redraw - destroy - repeat). IF you're a Potterhead like I am, you'll get the reference ;)

So, at the moment, I think these are the amazing things I have going on, what about you?
