Day 2: More Skincare

The one problem with the glorious student kit I mentioned is the weight. The kit came with two stacking bags, one a shoulder bag and the other a roller bag, and they are both completely necessary! The weight of the kit actually prevented me from bringing the whole thing with me today, because I wasn't sure if we'd have a place to store them or not. It seems that yesterday we were supposed to have gotten our lockers, but we didn't. I believe the one in charge of distributing those had some sort of emergency and was unavailable at the time. My laziness in bringing my kit was, of course, rewarded with the receipt of our lockers today instead.

The bulk of today was spent continuing further into skin care. We touched on a lot of details about skin analysis that were in the curriculum and many others that were directly from the teacher's esthetician experience. We also practiced putting our drapes on one another for practice. It was a much more active class today and time went much more quickly.

Speaking of "active" classes. The class I mentioned yesterday came up again in conversation and the bulk of our classroom erupted into discussion about the lack of professionalism. Some students were surprised that the school would so highly stress professionalism to us in orientation and then allow that kind of behavior in the building. I agree. Behavior of that sort does make it more difficult to take the cry for professionalism seriously. However, it also appears that my assumption about the school attempting to make changes is indeed true. They are, in fact, cracking down on issues like those. We are likely one of the first classes to have those points so heavily stressed to us in order to push for change.

All in all, the second day was better than the first, I really hope it continues to be so interesting.
