Switching Things Up








Hello friends! Happy new year and all the rest. Yes, I know I go missing for a few months then I reappear but the fact of the matter is that’s life and some times life gets ya down. I’m not going to lie to you my new year started off crappy, I’ve had constant wisdom tooth problems and my mental health hasn’t been the best, but that’s ok because my “new year new me” attitude has just kicked in and I am switching things up In my life. I’ll hold my hands up and say I’m not a “do-er”, I will put things off and analyse things to the point where I’ll find a flaw and not do it and then complain that life is passing me by. Well I went out of my comfort zone and did something that will make the old me shook! I am going back to education!


As ye all know from reading this blog I am obsessed with skincare. It’s my passion and the majority of my jobs have been in the Beauty sector. I’m going to college to become a skincare specialist. I will be attending the Bronwyn Conroy beauty school in Blackrock doing their course called Advanced skincare specialist. As more beauty therapists are specialising in different areas they thought why not devote a course specially to skin. I was toying with the idea of becoming a beauty therapist but the thoughts of having to wax the nether regions of someone really put me off. This course will allow me to work in salons providing skincare analysis and facial treatments. It’s a 16 week course, one day a week so it works perfectly around my full time work schedule. Since I found out I can do this course I feel like a new me, like I have a purpose. This is just the start of my new career and already it has given me much joy.

I’m going to document as much as I can on here and my Instagram so you all can see my journey. If anyone is going through that same “funk” I’ve been going through, don’t second guess yourselves. Take chances you’re future self will thank you. So go out there and switch things up and live your life.

New year, old me?!

So it's been a minute.. Well just over 2 years to be exact. I genuinely forgot I a had blog for a while. Looking back on my blog and my posts fills me with mixed emotion. On one hand it makes me happy to see myself doing something I really enjoyed. On the other I'm filled with sadness and regret.  I regret that I stopped doing something I loved . I was afraid of ridicule from others, even though the only person who was ridiculing me was myself. Self sabotage was a favourite past time of mine back then. With that being said I'm in a much better place in my life now and more comfortable in myself.

For 2017 I've decided to do more things that push me creatively. So what better way to do so than digging up the auld blog and get the creative juices flowing. I am going to try and blog on the regular.   I'll still be blogging about the usual, beauty, lifestyle and the odd rant.

Here's to new beginnings and doing what makes us happy. I hope everyone has a prosperous new year and stayed tuned!!

See ye soon!

Paul.
