I know who I am — Partly. The other half I’m still looking for.

So everyone of you know now that I’m going into cosmetology sometime in the fall. Well, I originally was going to go to Greenville Technical College for my cosmetology classes. But, I found out that they are not an accredited school. If I were to go to Greenville Tech. then I would end up working in a Great Clips or something. Which, there’s nothing wrong with that, but that just not what I want to do. If I get into cosmetology I want to make it big. I want to be known. I want to work in a high fashion stylist salon such as Giuseppe Franco.

I found this school called Aveda Institutes in Charolotte, North Carolina and it’s a school based on nothing but cosmetology, esthetics, manicuring, salon, and spa care. I also found out that I could qualify for a PELL Grant, which is for people like me, undergraduates (drop-outs). So, if my plans to move in with my friend Ke actually go through, which i am hoping and praying they do, then I am probably going to be going to Aveda Institutes sometime in June or July. Hopefully, I will be accepted and I will be able to go to it.

Aveda Institutes is a high fashion cosmetology and design school. If I were to go there then I would be learning the standards to become a Master Stylist instead of someone working in a local hair cutting place. The good thing is that it’s a Master Stylist college at an entree-level stylist price. Which means that for what I could pay to go to Greenville Technical College and become an entree-level cosmetologist, with Aveda I can pay the same price and become a Master Stylist.

“The Aveda Institute was founded to create some of the most successful entrepreneurs in hair, skin and nail esthetics, makeup, massage and total body wellness. Our students are educated by accomplished professionals, using innovative curriculum’s that blend professional techniques with retail and business-building skills. The Institute emphasizes personal well-being as well as environmental responsibility. Using Aveda pure flower and plant essences and plant-based products, we affirm the relationship between personal beauty, wellness and the environment.”

I really hope this works out for me. Not only would I then have a great life, but it would actually be a life worth living for.
