My New Job!

So if you haven't known already, I of course graduated in November from beauty school as an Esthetician or informerly a skin care specialist. I took my written exam but I have yet to take my practical exam which gives me my actual license. (Don't worry. I do plan on taking care of that very soon.)  Since then, I have gotten a job working at Victoria's Secret. Ive been there for 4 months now and I can say the only reason I like working there is because its one of my favorite stores and the benefits are great.  The pay was okay but since I still want more things, I got a second job... I am a waitress at Ojos Locos Sports Bar and Cantina!  Ojos Locos is the "Mexican Hooters". Its a breastaurant. Ive always wanted to work somewhere where I can be sexy and be myself. Ive been here for a month now and I can definitely say I love it here and i'll be staying for as long as I can. Every day is so much fun, and the tips are out of this world. I can now afford more thing...

Valentine's Day 2014!

All I wanted was some damn flowers. Lol. Obviously I didnt get them this year. Oh well I got lots of chocolate and candy to make up for it. Gabriella got pajamas. For some reason, I'm obsessed with pj's for her. I went into JCP and saw the entire pajama section and had to control myself lol.  Its been so long since i've been on an actual date. :( I havent been loved properly haha. Next year for V-Day its gonna be better though. I just didnt want much this year. I wanted to chill out and get a nap since I have 2 jobs now. ;) New post about that coming soon.  Happy Valentine's Day Lovlies!  Remember that this day is about showing love to everyone and not just for couples. Be nice and show everyone love always. 

Did you keep your promises for 2014?

January is over already?! Wow! (Happy Chinese New Year by the way). It seems like the older we get, the faster time flies.  With that said, have you given up on your "resolutions" or promises already? If you have, its okay. Just pick it back up. Its nothing wrong with that. You have to do something at least 25 times consistently to make it a habit.  And if you haven't, keep up the good work! Ive been doing pretty good myself. I'm still working out, my job is going okay (I'm switching jobs soon though.), my daughter is well taken care of and lots more.  January is usually a time for adjustment for me. Last year I of course was adjusting to being a new mommy and a new life of becoming a parent. This year I was working on getting everything back on track for my career and my family and social life (which has been almost non existent since I graduated from esthetics school lol). Now that winter is about to be over in about a month or so, alot of events are going to st...

Happy New Year 2014!!!

Wooo hooooo! Hooray! Its a New Year! I was seriously determined NOT to stay at home in "post partum mode" this year like I did last year. Lol. My grandmother always said, "Whatever you do on new years eve, you'll be doing for the rest of the year.". Well 2014 is definitely my year to be! (A psychic even said it ;)  I wanted to spend my new year with meaningful people and the ones I truly love; my daughter and my family. Now that Gabby is old enough to "turn up" with us, she of course had fun too. We went to Brittney's apartment, and played Taboo, took many many many many many maybe too many shots, and watched Big D NYE on TV but still had a good "live" view from her apartment balcony. Good times spent with good people bring you good luck. :) My 2014 theme this year is like MJ... "This is it." Lol. There is no turning back for me. This is it. I'm in this till its over. I'm chasing my dreams and I know for a fact that...

Gabriella's First Birthday Party

I'm pretty sure I don't have to explain too much of the story because I posted about it (exactly) a year ago. But i'll do it anyway. :)  On this day of last year, at 10:59pm, my angel was born. This year was full of so many great accomplishments for me and Gabby. She taught me responsibility, how to be a woman, she kept me pushing for everything and anything I wanted to do because it all in the end was gonna be beneficial for her as well as myself. I cannot believe a year has flown by so fast. This is the kind of stuff that makes me want another baby. Lol I started off my day bright and early at 9am. I was up ALL night preparing things for the birthday party. (I am so sorry that I did not blog about the planning. I'll explain everything very soon in a post about what was going on) I got favors ready, put each decoration piece in separated bags, EVERYTHING you can possibly think of that a perfectionist OCD party planner would do for a party, I did it! Lol. S...

I'm adding a new "series"!

Hey guys! So as you may all know, I'm currently attending esthetician school. I'm learning so many new things and ways to take care of your skin that I just feel the need to share it with you all. After all, if you've been following this blog for a while, you know that this is what I always talked about. Beauty and how to maintain it. So i've decided that I am going to continue that and start my new blog series "All about..." I'll tell you guys all about good beauty habits, skin care tips, beauty services, and reviews on products.  Have no fear. I will STILL post about me and Gabriella (and I'm still trying to get around to updating and catching up on past posts that I've missed).  Also, more exciting news, I have finally managed to fade my stretch marks so that means I am ready to model again! I'll let you guys know about any events I have coming up and so much more.  This blog is about to be thebomb.com! <3 -Kortney Upcoming Event! Please ...
