| | Since I have deactivated my facebook, I have decided to start blogging again! It's been time since I have sat down and gave this thing a little thought...
I think it has been two weeks now, since I have deactivated the devil... the reason for so was because it was taking over my life! Imagine two hours of it per day, just clicking on people's profiles, seeing what photos they have uploaded, what events are on, adding new friends, and commenting silly messages on people's walls/photos! I have to admit, stalking people is rather fun... sometimes, but when you open facebook before you even check your emails in the morning... it is rather sad.
I have decided that I am not going to go on it until 15th June (deadline date for EVERYTHING...) but hopefully by that time, I would have gone off it!
So on a brighter note, I have been doing productive things, like...my work!! I have been working non stop for the past 3 or 4 weeks... it's been so crazy! Final year...SUCKS! Uni has been such a doss for 2 years, then finally... it hits you like a big fat slap! This academic year has been so busy, constant deadlines, stress and a few panic attacks here and there... Everyone on the course has been so drained, trying to meet every deadline. For those who think fashion design consists of drawing stick figures, colouring in pretty dresses and reading vogue... think again! It is a never ending nightmare, as there is never work.
I will always remember the answer my first year tutor said to me when I asked her
'How much work do you think I should do for next week?'
'How long is a peice of string?' she replied. It is unfortunately true... there is never a stopping point for design... even when you hand in your work, you are still consistantly thinking of solutions or ways of improving the work. I often feel like I have not been given enough time or that the goals I set myself are beyond achievable. This usually leads me to me feeling like I have failed or have lost sense of achievement.
After weeks of working extra extra hard... a request from the stand organizer of London Graduate Week asked us to do a doodle, and comment on the question 'How do you feel aboue life?'. There we are, all working hard, pattern cutting, sewing, etc... comes a request like that... haha... what kind of request do you call that? I guess it will be quite amusing seeing everybody's doodles at the exhibition.
I will now like to share with you all what I doodled for Mr exhibitionist... Enjoy =)
I obviously have the point of view that the request was a waste of time... I was going to be naff and send them a stick man, telling them it is a waste of time. But... I thought I'd be rather creative ;)
I showed my classmates, and they cracked up laughing...
Yes... fashion design is rather suisidal at times, but I CANNOT WAIT until our catwalk. It'll definatly be all worth it at the end =)
