Dispensary : ( & Male Manikin!?

Well on Monday and Tuesday I had dispensary duty so refilling shampoo and conditioner bottles. It took super long. Then my teacher from last semster said "Bless your heart." because I was filling the conditioner bottles by using a funnel that took longer to fill. Then she showed me an easier way with the cap of a color bottle that was cut with a bigger hole. I knew that last time I was in the dispensary it was there>the cap, but I guess I did not try looking for it hard enough. I was thankful that on Tuesday I had another classmate with me that washed about 5 loads of laundery. I usually end up with someone that does not take the initiative to find something to do.
On Wednesday we did more Color and Highlighting but this time it was on the male manikin. Thursday was filled with cutting Samuel the male manikin's hair. We used the clippers and I cut it shorter than  it was supposed to be since I looked at the book and it looked really close to the scalp. I also tried to free hand it and was lazy to hold the comb up. Oh well. I need to learn how to not make holes in the hair. Not too bad, but blending haircuts for me is a challenge right now and especially using the clippers.
On Friday I was able to cut a lady's hair that was shorter in the back that went diagonally forward to the front of her neck. It was cute and she was gracious and patient with me. She knew I was nervous and told me not to be. I let her know that sometimes I think to much about what I am doing in stead of doing it. So that helped me to work faster. Hopefully when she comes back she asks for me! Oh to another week of Cosmetology School. I am in a desparate need of a break!!! I will keep pressing on> I'm edging onto the halfway point of my schooling!!!
