Hello!
I have been a lurker for about the last year or so... and think this site is absolutely wonderful (i'm sad and make notes of things i think might be useful!!!) and I just wanted to come and introduce myself and share my excitement with someone!!!!! (No one else seems to get it!)
Anyway, i'm a creative peep, have ALWAYS been interested in nails... (had about 400 bottles of nail polish when i was 14...i've cut down since then, was always doing nail art etc!) and am currently stuck in a boring office job that is not stimulating my creative juices and seriously is destroying my soul....... and having been considering going down the Nails/Beauty route for a few years now, i am FINALLY taking the plunge!!!!!!!!!
I have the time booked off work, most of the funds sorted, and just need to BOOK my place on the CND course in London (they have 3 left)! Yes, i've done my research, and have concluded this is my best option (although am a little worried about salons requesting NVQ's..........) I'm not deluding myself into thinking it's a quick fire way of making money... for me, it's a creative outlet to do on the side and see where it goes. If I end up being good at it, then being able to jack in the office job one day and have my own business would be fabulous!
Anyway, i just wanted to say "hi"! :wink2: I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOOO excited and seriously cannot wait to do this course. Roll on July!
Nice to meet you all! I'm now off to buy the new version of Marian Newmans Complete Nail Technician book... and Gigi's too..... if i can find it!
