What a lovely weekend :)

Spent the weekend with the mister, and it was just what I needed.
Even though I did actually spend time working. But his uni library is just a bit of a ledge!

Absolutely hate to be back now!
Can't wait for my next trip up North though!! We'll be seeing the amazing Aloe Blaac when I do! =D

But for now, there's lots to be done, and the deadline seems to be closing in so quickly!

Got to get my brother a birthday present, making my work beautiful, tidy my room before I lose everything important, and somewhere along the line, I should probably try not to forget about the dissertation work I have to do too =/

Oooooh dammit.

On the plus side, the boyo did buy me this yummy scrumptiousness for me to be munching while I work! =D

Yums!!

Things can only get better

Been a bit of a rubbish week, but the photoshoot for my latest 'prospectus' brief managed to put a smile on my face. 
With the help of the wonderful Christine Xuan's photography, we managed to capture an array of 'doodle faces'.

Her retouching is amazing, and has made even the worst of us look a bit dam good!

Love my pic; even had to facebook it.
Quite excited about eh final outcome now. Post pictures when it's finished.

Until then, enjoy this little beaut! Ha!

What a week

Student housing is a mess.
Work is a mess.
I'm tired.
I'm lacking motivation.

I want to go home. With my boy.

Cannot wait for Loughborough.

I want, I want, I want!!!

I've just realise how little money I have in the world (boo!), and at the same time decided that I need beautiful fairy lights along the head of my bed...and can't afford them (double boo!!)

But I have found the most beautiful website for when I can afford them...

Fingers crossed, I can save up enough to get them. They're just the perfect crappy winter's day lighting to help you get to sleep.

Speaking of which, I'm absolutely shattered. Night.

Success :)


Leopard print seems to have worked quite well.
Yippee!!
A productive day as you can see!

I love it when a plan comes together

So I've been sitting here with my wine and utter silence, hoping for some great designer's break-through...and it has....I think.

I have to design the new prospectus for Graphic Design at my university, and I have to make it amazing and unique. My first ideas weren't edgy enough, and I didn't have a real concept behind it.

Now I think the idea is to 'extend an invitation' to all potential designers.

I have to remember that their course will be much more expensive too! Must remember to tell them that they will inevitably pay back less in the end (thank you student ambassador knowledge. Always handy).

I'll get back to you with more when I've put it past the tutors...wish me luck.

Needs some work...



But hey; practice makes perfect.

So much work to do on my first brief for this year, and a serious tutorial tomorrow...eeek.
