Spring Prep: Fuzz Free Legs

 

Friday the 21st is the first day is the British Springtime. With lighter mornings, later evenings and warmer days  most of us shake free of the layers forced upon us during the winter. As more of us turn to our spring/summer staples of skirts, vests and shorts, come the added task of making sure we partake in various depilatory processes. lol 

My methods of torture when it comes to hair removal run to waxing and threading. I love the shape that threading gives my eyebrows. Though I might not like the process of waxing my legs I love the results. There is just a extra level of smoothness to my limbs after I have had my legs waxed compared to other hair removal methods (at least I think so anyway.)  

I go to a beautician to have my threading/waxing done, but Superdrug currently has some great offers on hair removal products perfect for those who are skilled at DIY beauty. (I would love to be able to do my own waxing but, I am a wuss, lol)

For the waxing enthusiasts (like myself) there are several products to choose from, the Veet Easy Roll On Kit, Veet Facial wax 2 in 1 Pen (I am very intrigued by this), Veet Wax Strips, and  the Veet Wax Jar (the wax is infused with essential oil) 

    

Those who prefer hair removal creams might be intrigued by these items, which are perfect for stocking up the spring/Summer beauty cupboard.

 Veet Shower Hair Removel Cream Lotus flower & Jasmine 150ml,

There you go dolls a list of products,

 to  help keep your legs smooth 

during shorts weather (and beyond).

Summer House happenings: Burges Salmon

     Well I was supposed to go to Antigua for summer holidays, as I usually do however this year I really wanted to move up in the work environment. So I applied here there and everywhere for a summer job. I was not successful and to some extent I felt alot resentful that I didn't even get to the interview stage. However It was not to be and the lord had another plan in store for me. My university has recently launched an intern ship scheme and I applied for one particular job which caught my eye, Operations and Project management intern. Whoop whoop now anyone who has ever studied operations management will know it is the most tedious subject to study for. 

      I am intrigued with all of these little processes which make the business successfully turnover. Also in my many years as an employee I have found that many employers are only concerned with the finished product. They forget all the background work which goes into making that product and from this is where you get resentful staff, poor performance and high levels of staff turnover. Even the packaging and the way customers are treated falls under operations management. I prayed and prayed and prayed, I believed that I was meant to have this internship and when I got the call I was soooooooooooo ecstatic and overjoyed.

      I bought a new skirt navy blue with with a military style front from H&M, paired it with a navy blue and white shirt with contrast collar and cuffs. I looked amazing. I had no idea where the place was so I left home an hour early (the importance of a trail run). I wound up being 45 minutes early but this was my dream job in the making so who was counting. The interview went smoothly I answered the questions with relevant examples taken from my previous experience in other forms of employment, spoke a bit about myself and why I was the ideal candidate for this position. My interview was 20 minutes long it was at 12 and by 3.17pm she called me to inform me I had received the job. :)

Prepare yourself for your future, your destiny is your creation

Summer House Happenin's: End of exams

   

Hello well the end of exams came and it went just as swiftly. Leaving me in its wake with a beating delivered by managing finance, Economic theory, and business statistics----------> shudders. For those who think that student life is easy let me tell you it is not. You are broke and constantly in need and the time. The light at the end of the tunnel is your only hope that gets you through day by day. There are highs and there are lows, and some days there were just tears. However this year has been unlike any other. I have opened up myself to my faith more than ever before, also let some new friends into my life. These new faces have been the source of much laughter, joy, arguments, debates, inspiration and motivation. My love for my family has been ever bountiful for on the days when I didnt believe in myself they kept me going with kind words about my capabilities. I am so grateful to the lord for blessing me with what I have.
