Cha-ching beauty therapy

Brisbane makeup coursesLast weekend I was at the casino. I’ve never been into gambling but started watching gangster movies lately and it’s made me kind of interested in the lifestyle. So I thought I’d go to the casino to see if I could spot any gangsters among the roulette tables and gambling chips. I thought I spotted some, thought it’s hard to tell because sometimes they’re rather inconspicuous. In Australian, gangsters tend to dress like average people, or in the case of Carl Burger, like they found their clothes in a bin. You’re not going to walk up to a bunch of guys playing poker and see ‘Scarface’ or anything. In addition, I had another motive for going to the casino and that was because I needed money for this makeup course in Brisbane, that I wanted to do. So I stood by the blackjack table and put in some tokens. I came out lucky the first time. The second time I was winning again. I looked around. I needed advice. To keep putting chips on the table? Or to quit while I was ahead? I thought back to my mother telling me “a bird in the hand’s worth two in the bush” but then I spotted a man that I recognised as one of the infamous gangsters of Brisbane. He’d just pushed a pile of chips onto the table, and I thought – that’s how the men at the top make it, they take risks. So I put everything I had onto that table….

I guess the same principles apply when you study a diploma of beauty therapy. You’re going to have to take creative risks with your beauty, while of course, keeping the health and safety of your model or client first and foremost. It’s a shame I won’t actually get to take the beauty course, because I did lose all my chips that day. A bemused gangster shouted me a drink for my losses. Ah well, it was a fun night at least. I’ll have to get a part time to job to pay for my course, I’m not giving up.
