June in AZ








Well. i've been up to school lately. no pun intended..thats what i've been up to...going up to the valley for school everyday. im in my 6th week. i am testing out of basics next week! this morning we practiced a basic facial on our dolls, then i waxed a girls arm, then went to lunch, then treated tamra with the high frequency , then she treated my face with it, and wow i tell ya wow! it cleaned my face up so much!! before, i felt like my face was very oily, and its been sort of breaking out, and even though i washed my face this morning, it felt dirty, and after that, (high frequency has a sanitizing effect on the skin), it felt so much better! i didnt notice it til later, but i looked in the mirror and my face looked so much better!! and it was dry, it wasnt oily anymore!! what a wonderful machine. and then i gave my vietnameze (sp?) friend a back facial, i am feeling better in all areas of my work. not perfect in any degree yet, but at least more confident. here are some pictures of what we have been up to. we went out to eat friday with Han and her husband , both from vietnam, and allyssa , who is a native from Guam. we ate at Saigon Pho. a vietnamese restaurant. now look, i spelled vietnamese right back there! just now! isnt it wierd how you can remember somethings without thinking about them, but when you try to think of them, they dont come? anyways, enjoy the pictures! i added some pictures of my class, the one with 3, is Tamra, Me, And Allyssa. that is my "basics" class. just 3 of us. then i added some of the group that went to do baptisms for the dead, Jeff, Diana, Kelly (our new member, almost 1 year now), and Me.

Life in the SUn. and MARY!







So today i got WAY sunburned. wow. i didnt even see it comin! that day me and jenny went to the scottsdale resort with aud and the kids we didnt get burned at ALL! hardly any color. so today i didnt slap suncreen on much, a little but not too much. i am a lobster! not good!! and all day i couldnt even see a tan line, i thought i was gona be lucky if i got any color. i got color!! im a red skin now! youch. thats gona hurt. its already hot. i got home and im just beat red..so you get the picture. but we had fun at the water park today. me, mary, david and emma. it was a lot of fun, we went to the one in mesa. for marys layover. i bet thats the most fun anybody has EVER had in a layover. shes gona get to alaska burned up i bet. i bet she got just about as burned as me. she had a better tan to begin with so maybe not so burned.... we'll see. oh ya we got to town SO early. mary flew in at like 6:30 am. we got her around 7. and then we went to wal mart for water and snacks, then to bk for some breakfast , cause it was across the street from the waterpark. and audrey dropped us off. so we had like 2 hours before the park opened. but it was good. we just chilled for a while. it felt good to finally get in some water though!
anyways , i put a couple pictures on that we took today. and then i put one of dan cutting his own grown (and still growing) putting green lawn. special lawn mower and everything. pretty exciting stuff huh. well, school is going well, speaking of school i need to go read and do some work! but its been fun. we've been waxing! which i love! its so gratifying. i love tweezing ingrown hairs. its so satisfying. i had part of my legs waxed yesterday and then my bikini (no bikini's here..just swimsuit) line. didnt get to finish my legs because we ran out of time. ... but it wasnt so bad. i was expecting a lot worse. just stings a little. not a big deal. but ya, i am loving school.. its very interesting, and im learning a lot. i love being in school. i love learning new things everyday. i miss that when im not in school ya know.. well, talk to ya later!
