Holidaaaays

Hello hello.

How you all had a Merry Christmas and a kickass New Year! My Christmas holidays consisted of excessive shifts at the Hippodrome and having this years pantomime, Dick Whittington, drilled into my brain, but it was alriiiight! I enjoyed every shift - the people that I work with are so lovely. :)

My sketchbook was touched a total of four times over the past two weeks:
1. To put it in my bag
2. To take it out of my bag
3. To work on it on boxing day (minimally, I might add)
4. To put it back in my bag

I also told myself I won't make any resolutions this year because I rarely keep them, let alone remember them a week down the line so I'm going to share with you my er...own personal accomplishments over the last year!

1. I've become more comfortable with myself! The shyness is slowly going and I feel my ever-surpressed true self coming out more and more each day.
2. I've found something different and more interesting to do with my hair. Yay curls! Bye straight hair styles!
3. I'm (mostly..?) fully supporting myself this year. No rollover loan money this year - just good old fashioned working!
4. I've met a crapload of new people which is great! And I've also managed to still spent time (even though its so little nowadays!) with my old ones.
5. I've managed to lose a bit of weight without thinking about it! Yippee!

Yep that's about it. =D I am proud! Now to focus again and do this final collection - although to be perfectly honest, I don't have much to show for tomorrow's tutorial. My bad. :)

Deuces!

Acid and The Hippodrome

The acid dye workshop I had today was rather dull..I do love me a bit of acid (dye of course) but it just so happens that the workshop as a whole was a lil' shit. It's good that I have the knowledge on how to professionally dye lovely colours onto silk and wool but meh. I wish it happened last year.

But I've decided I'm gonna use wool as one of my fabrics :)

We had a meeting about the fashion show and how we need to designate jobs to everyone to make the workload more reasonable for everyone. I'm quite excited about this fashion show. We still have a helluvalotta fund raising to do, but the end result should be radical.

Ah and for my interview today. Talk about intense. 10 girls, one theatre. Ha sounds like a bad porno, however that's what it was! We had a maths test and individual interviews in these quite rooms, I was actually a bit nervous :/ I hope I get the job though cos my other potential job fired me before I started. Haha yep, on the way to uni this morning I got a call from the cafe and the lady said that she had someone else and she didn't need me for Sunday. At least my weekend freed up. =D And I wasn't bothered anyway but I reeeeeeeeally hope I land the job at the Hippodrome. I'd be well happy.x
