Hi Guys

Hey everyone, I haven't been so regular on my blog lately. It's been a crazy period for me, these past month. Like I said before, I am juggling between, my regular week day work, makeup jobs, schooling and also being married, I have to say, it hasn't been easy. And that has made updating my blog to suffer. Make una no vex, I would try harder *smiley face*... Some of you might say, 'y not drop the week day job and take up the makeup aspect fully', the truth is, it isn't that time yet if you know what I mean. But bit by bit I am getting there.

Today for instance, I was able to get the day off from work, and I was called upon to do a makeover for about 15 OAPs of a Lagos Radio station, which included men aswell, and for me, that was a great use of my day off . I'll, post the pictures soon enough as soon as the their website is up and running. So you see what I mean by I am getting there.

I would try to update today, and get back to my reading, cuz I have an exam coming up soon. So have fun viewing my blog and if you have a makeover job for me, don't hesitate to holla.........

Love ya.......
