What's going on

Allow me to shake off the dust that has gathered along this blog..
Hello!

It's been a while. How are you? How's the family?
Pleasantries aside, let me tell you what's been going on.

Uno:
I recently left the university I was studying in for a few reasons I won't mention here, which then forced me to concentrate on work and taking a break. Those two things sound contradicting.. Yes, they were, but at the same time, I only had to work 3 days a week. So, not too bad..

To make a very long and twisted story short, I left Warsaw to return to my first home: Dubai.
I realized that in order for me to take time off and figure out what to continue studying, I'm going to have to get my hands dirty.
Of course, I'll have all summer to get my hands manicured first!

Dos:
I have found love again. I say 'again' because this man has been in my life for years. We had gone through the treacherous waves of the dreaded on/off long-distance relationship, and lo and behold! we made it through.
Nah, in all seriousness, the minute we saw each other again it was right smack in the same love spot.

So, there's another reason for me to be staying here. And a pretty damn good one at that!

Tres:
I've been keeping myself busy with some online courses nowadays, which is one of the many reasons why I've been so damn quiet here..
Another thing (relating to the aforementioned news), I didn't know I was leaving Wawa for a prolonged period of time until AFTER I got to Dubai. So, I left 90% of my make up there. I know. I cried.
I'm not kidding, I actually CRIED for my cosmetics. Tad bit of a drama queen.

So, that explains the lack of "makeup posts" all up in this bizznass.

Don't be shocked if it's a bit bare, I'm still working on it.
I'm planning to work on my portfolio while I'm here (I'll have some more time on my hands) allowing me to work on new looks and practice new techniques.
I also plan to take a few courses so I can get a fancy certificate saying you'll have to pay me big bucks to paint your face.

Just kidding, I want to get the certificate so that I can start interning.
It's about time, right?!

All in all, I left Poland because at the current moment, I've nothing to keep me there. Dubai will return to being my home for the time being, until I miss snow and cooler weather. Then, I'll fly back out to Europe to de-rust my Polish :)

For now, just relax. Enjoy the rest of the summer.
I'll be posting a short letter to my ex-fellow-students and friends soon.
