Interviews…and a HUGE opportunity….
I have two of them. They are both for staffing companies..but they are staffing companies that provide professional and skilled labor. I need to find something nice to wear. I need to figure out what to do with my hair. So, it’s very long and thick. It’s almost to my butt…it’s at least longer than halfway down my back. Plus, I had the top half dyed blonde and put red over it, but it’s grown out…and you can see my grey strands :/ I’m thinking straighten it (otherwise it’s kinda weird wavy) and put the top half back in a barrette of some kind? It looks better pulled back like that..it looks like the growth out is more blended, I guess. I can’t afford to get the roots touched up. I will also need to do my nails in a more neutral color, I suppose…like a light pink or beige.
I am so hoping that one of these places will have a job for me. One of the places said they only start at $10-12 though :/ I kind of need to make more than that….but if I can sell candles, maybe it’ll be okay.
OHMIGAWD
Speaking of candles, I was contacted by someone to be on a talk radio show, talking about my candles!!! The interview would be broadcast to over 110 stations, 2XM stations, and a podcast. HOLY FUCKING SHIZ. I’m nervous though, because the thought of speaking to so many listeners kind of freaks me out. The show is called Free Talk Live, a radio show devoted to the message of liberty. LINK. Obviously, this would be a HUGE opportunity for my business. Could you even imagine…? I would be worried about getting more business than I can handle…but I’m going to do it anyway. I’ll have to link the podcast whenever it’s available….
But I’m going to continue watching The Neverending Story now….

Can you put your hair up into a bun or other updo? My hair isn’t as long as yours, but I usually pull my hair totally up if I want a more formal/pro look.
Ooooooo oh wow, a radio show for your candles?!?!?! HOW FREAKING COOL! I’m so excited for you!
A radio show that’s amazing!!!! Try not to think of all the listeners, just focus on the people you are talking to at the radio station and that will help. I’m so happy for you! Good luck on the interviews as well!
good luck!
Congratulations and best wishes!
I hope things start looking up for you! It’s so awesome that you’re gonna be on a radio show, especially since Christmas is coming. =]
I love FTL! They’ve been putting their shows on soundcloud too so you can even embed the one you’re on here in addition to the link.
That is A W E S O M E news dear. A talk show, sounds intriguing. I think I would be nervous too, but I’m sure you’ll be fine.
Regarding hair-do, I’d put it up, but I’d also ensure it’s one-color, just to keep it professional.
Being on the radio, you just need to focus on the other person, don’t worry about the people listening. (I’ve been on the radio before). Can you try a french twist for your hair? Definitely more polished/professional.
That was a great movie. With that much publicity, you could make enough to move out of your mom’s, drop out of college, and just make a killing making candles. You really got lucky, I am so happy for you, you’re still going to make me those candles before you become an instant hit.
Best of luck!!!
*jumps up and down* omg, I’m so excited for you! That’s WONDERFUL!
Staffing companies are the best way to go. I’m trying to get into contact with some myself. Very good idea! I think the hair idea sounds great. Maybe you could put everything in a big clip too, or a braid!
10-12/hour is a great starting wage. Get 2 jobs if you need to, or one full and one part-time. Good luck on the interview and show. I’m sure you’ll do awesome!
