I am now a graduate of the Regency Beauty Institute....and later next month I will be taking my state boards to become a licensed cosmetologist, which is GREAT if that's the field I wanted to work in. Now don't get me wrong, I love doing hair, nails and basic skin care, but it's not something I want to be doing 8-9 hours a day, which I realized 3/4 of the way through the program.
So what's next? Well I have decided I am going back to school to get my RN and eventually my BSN. I will still do hair on the side, but I am really wanting to get back into the medical field. Granted, the only time I have been in the medical field was 7 years ago and it was just as an ER Volunteer. But it was an awesome 9 months, and it was something I could totally see myself doing for years to come. I know I know, when I originally started college, that's what I was going for, but then felt like that's not what I was supposed to do, so went for Cosmetology...and now I'm back to where I started.
Anyways, I have found a school that offers a 16 month program here in Kansas City, yeah it's going to school 8-5 everyday, but it would be totally worth it if I can get my RN in just 16 months. I failed the STUPID 12 minute, 50 question test you have to take to even be considered to apply....so I will go back this week to take it. My admissions counselor said this "It's ok, next time just take your time but go a little faster"....yeah ok. If I get accepted I will be able to start in July!
Well that's enough about school.
I just found out yesterday that our Movie Gallery store is closing, we'll all be out of jobs in 6-8 weeks, the perks...we get a .50 bonus, but that's ONLY if we stay til the last day. There's a lot I am going to miss about my job, but at the same time I will be glad to be done with that company. So once again, the job search is on.
Well that's about all that fun and interesting in my life....
