About to fail Petco's stylist academy. Any step by step guides for the teddy bear head??

I'm about to fail Petco's stylist academy because I keep forgetting how they want me to position my scissors for the different steps of the teddy bear head, especially the dog's right side of the head.

Trying to watch a bunch of videos but I think I really need a visual reference for each scissoring step and how to position the scissors.

I really can't afford to be a permanent bather, and I think my new store's gsl said to make me a permanent bather if I fail for some reason.

In a week I start the technical tests where I do breed specific full body haircuts. But I am stuck on the head.

Can I get my indoor cat used to a stray?

There is a little stray cat with a clipped ear that has started visiting me recently. He used to visit too when he was tiny as well. I occasionally give him wet food but I know a neighbor feeds him and other strays regularly. He is a very healthy weight.

He usually just stares at me through the sliding glass door, but I've been going outside and getting him used to me. We are not on touching terms, we just slow blink at each other for a while lol. He has been getting closer to me.

I REALLY want to adopt him, but when my indoor cat sees the little cat outside he charges at the door hissing. He hates any cats in his territory. Once he broke through our screen in a window to get at a cat outside (luckily I guess the other cat ran away and he just hurt his paws a little).

Is there anything I can do or is my indoor boy forever a single cat?

Also my local shelters have been putting down kittens so I dont trust them (I know because a coworker rescued a litter so they wouldnt be put down). I'm also too paranoid to advertise him to the public because a bad person can get him. There are a lot of good people here but it's still a somewhat shady area in Southern California.

Any stories of people that left the 9 - 5 and are now free?

I actually manifested very specific jobs that were impossible before. But I honestly just want to be free. I don't know how to not be bothered having to wake up everyday at a specific time and be stuck somewhere for 9 hours doing things I don't like. I actually manifested making decent money for a while, but then I got super burnt out at work and now just make minimum wage.

Anyone here manifest freedom?

Any good videos on scissoring and teddy bear head??

I'm doing the stylist academy and I don't understand scissoring. The instructor was trying to teach me how to do the teddy bear head and I was pretty lost. Like I dont know what hair to cut for blending the head. She just kinda moved the scissor over the head and it was blended. She handed me the scissors and I didn't know what to cut.

I feel really dumb and my store is expecting me to know this stuff when I go back. Any good videos for dumb people like me?

The lottery numbers keep getting extremely close to my numbers

Been actively manifesting a lottery win after manifesting two specific jobs. I just wanna be free and chill lol.

I decided to do specific numbers after thinking about doing my birthday month and day for the first two numbers, and then those were the first winning numbers for that draw. 😂 and I am very experienced manifesting specific things anyways.

Since decided on my numbers, I keep seeing ticket draws that are sooooo close to my numbers. Like off by a single digit (think 23 instead of 22) for all 5 numbers. I choose to see it as a sign I'll win soon. <3

Like I just checked before falling asleep and for a moment I thought I won it was that close haha.

Is Neville Goddard teaching to not take life so seriously?

I feel like a lot of his teachings go over my head. However I did the ladder experiment several times with different things and it worked which freaked me out.

If manifesting is real, I ultimately would want to not work anymore and have a little house for me and my cat. I actually manifested my specific career which is dog groomer and my previous job. But I always end up hating my jobs.

I suppose I would like something like the woman in the "Isn't it wonderful" story. He doesnt really explain how she treats her day to day life though or how she lasted so long without a job.

Honestly if I didn't have my cat, I'd just quit my job and go homeless until I manifest my dream life lol. I'd much prefer to live in a shelter. But he is my family and makes me happy, so. 🤷‍♀️

Should I just stop stressing over my dumb coworkers and work related problems? Like inwardly just focus on my dream even though I rely on my job and the problems seem really important?

I wonder how to not be mad at having to wake up early or be stuck standing on concrete for 8 hours everyday.

Is it bad to call out during stylist academy?

I had to do a half day yesterday because I got a terrible migraine. I genuinely couldn't function. Now today I woke up and I am still feeling really nauseous and just weird. Like I'm sweating I'm so nauseous, I feel awful. But I'm scared if I call out, they'll kick me out of the stylist academy thing.

Where can I find fan art without the drama and debates?

I'm a huuuge fan of the fan art (not NSFW). Especially the fully transitioned (or somewhere in the middle) trans Jax surprisingly, I love the styles for her that you guys came up with.

But I typically love fan art of all the characters too.

Where can I go if I want to see the fan art but not the drama, debates, etc.?

It's interesting how fast I manifest negatively

I have been testing manifesting and manifested specific things like my current job as dog groomer. But I still struggle with keeping a positive mindset.

Last night I couldn't sleep because I spent hours mentally reliving traumatic memories of my sexually abusive ex and I was also imagining vividly why I dislike some of my coworkers. I kept trying to change my thinking / feelings but I couldn't.

I caught a little bit of sleep and it was obvious I impressed my subconcious because I had a bad dream about my job and in the dream a man sexually assaulted me in a painful way (like I genuinely felt the pain).

When I woke up I opened my YouTube app on my phone and the first thing my algorithm showed me was a very disturbing video of clips of men being really effing creepy and sexually harassing women. And they were recorded from the woman's pov.

My algorithm does NOT show me videos ​like that and it was the first thing it showed me. It was a very upsetting start to my day.

I have noticed my algorithm for YouTube and other apps seem to "magically" show me things I've been thinking about. Like when I daydreamed about two streamers collabing (and it was a random collab, they never interacted before). They collabed in a few days.

Again, I don't think my algorithm has ever shown me a creepy video like that before. Its usually just fun and cute videos like videogames and cute couples.

Then my shift at work was AWFUL. I had a horrible migraine and tried to tough it out. Ended up embarassing myself crying because I was so miserable and went home early. Everyone was sweet but I am humiliated.

I know some people will think this is a coincidence, but I really don't think so from my experience. I really need to stop visualising bad stuff for hours at night. 😭

Flair is success story because I did manifest successfully, it just wasn't fun. 😂
