The whole past week has been insane. What an amazing start to 2012! My new year was fairly uneventful, had a couple of friends over and watched MTV and played Just Dance 3. Lame right? Yeah. Definitely. A couple of weeks ago I decided that it was time for me to find a second job. I have a bunch of money saved up to pay for rent, which isn't a huge issue, but with New Years Day in the studio, I am not doing a whole lot. It's nice to get out there and do something though, as much as I love sleeping in everyday and doing pretty much nothing, there is nothing better than coming home after a hard day of working.
I got a job as a makeup artist for MAC cosmetics. I mostly do freelance, but I am going to see if I can be trained to work in the store as well, at least for when I am off tour. I'm not 100% sure yet. It depends. Anyways, yesterday I took a more natural makeup look class through MAC. It was kind of amazing, my model turned out flawless! I wish I could pull off a more natural look but then again, it's not really my style. Today I am taking a more goth look class. I am extremely excited for this one! I can't wait for more classes, I am taking as many as I can so I can really begin working on expanding my portfolio and really make some good money.
One more exciting change happened in my life recently, which I still can't stop fucking smiling about. I got a boyfriend. It was kind of weird how it happened I mean it kind of just took off right away, but I am not complaining. Ricky and I have this huge connection that I don't think a lot of people understand. Sometimes there are moments where I swear we read each others minds. While he's in LA recording, he's staying at my apartment. We started calling everything 'ours' and it's so fucking cute. Bowie has really warmed up to him and I am pretty sure he now loves Ricky more than me.
It's weird to say that I am in love, especially so soon. But I don't regret it because I am so happy. Sometimes I wish I could spend every moment with him. When I'm not with him, I am thinking about him and want to be with him constantly. He has this way of giving me butterflies. It feels like when you are like 12 and find your first crush. That wave of feelings and emotions are what he gives me. Chris keeps trying to predict our engagement/wedding, which really cracks me up. I really hope I can get to know the rest of the guys well. Chris and I already know each other pretty well since he's always visiting NYD on tour, but I'd love to meet the rest of the guys and hopefully get along with them.
But yeah, I am gonna take a little nap now before my class in a few hours.
