one week from today...

One week from today (2/7/07) I have my first consultation for my tattoo. After 1 week and 2 days things are really looking good $218 worth of good. So I'm nearly half way to my goal, considering the way things are going i should have the money i need in about 2 weeks. Depending on how things go i might keep selling candy as it is a good way of making some extra money when i am at school. Anyway...

How to Become a Piercer...

So for part of my project i need to spend 20 hours watching someone at work, everything from setup to to cleanup. I plan on visiting a few shops and splitting the time between watching a piercer and watching a tattoo artist. One thing I plan to do after my project is work to get my APP membership. this might be a long process and has several steps. To do this I will need to become CPR cirtified, attend a bloodborne pathogens training class, and obtain an apprenticeship, as tricky as it may sound i have already sent a email requesting info on the "Bloodborne and Airborne Pathogens" class offered by th National Safety Council.

4 days in...

4 days of selling pop and candy have made me 20% closer to the cost of my project. It's really amazing and i thank everyone who has helped me so far. later this week I plan to visit Saint Sabrina's and see if they have an artist that will draw it up for me. When I get this done I will have a more exact idea of the cost. When I am there I will try and find out about the intern hours i need for my project. Ideally I would like to intern half the time as a piercer, and the other half of the time working with an artist.

Finals

Finals blow... if you didnt get the memo. Right now i'm working on the school website, this actually isnt due till next semester, but they want to see it today. It's much better than the site the school has now thats not hard to beat. I was making cooler sites in 5th grade. Whatever the school needs it and they will count it as my community service so it's all good. back to finals...

Last week in the semester

One week left this semester, next week I will find out all the requirements for my senior project my plan is to get donations from people online, and sell candy at school so if you see me or any of my friends selling candy you should help me out and buy some.
