It's proper update time!!
Well I said there'd be one and here it is so I hope that its interesting enough for you to read all the way through!
Woah I have so much to say so I'll just try to keep it to the minimum.
At the moment I am alone, and will be for the next 2 weeks, my parents are in Italy and my brother is in Africa, its ok but everything is down to me at the moment and I really should be washing up or taking the rubbish out instead of sitting here, luckily there isn't that much of either so I can do it a little later. My boyfriend has all but moved in with me in the last few days and it shows, the bathroom floor is sopping wet (but shouldn't really complain because at least he's actually discovered the shower!) there are piles of clothes in practically every room in the house (HIS clothes not mine) and countless empty glasses where he refuses to drink from the same one twice.
Last month I went to London to do a summer course at LCC. It was awesome, it cost 700 but it was money well invested as we got to do so many cool things, like shooting models for Storm, the agency behind legends such as Eva Herzigova, Lily Cole and of course the little known Kate Moss My love for photography was totally refuelled in that time and I even got offered a place on a graduate diploma next year after I finish my current shiity course at university. I can't wait, for a while I've been quite disenchanted but now I know taking pictures is what I want to do everyday for the rest of my life.
Yes so university really sucks, I hate it, I hate my course, I hate the tutors and I hate the teaching but I stay because I just can't quit once I've started something and there is only one year to go until I can finally move to london and live the dream. At the moment I am averaging at a 2:2 which is not what I had in mind but my written work is on average 15 marks higher than my practical so I really need to write a killer dissertation to pull me up to a 2:1 which is what I'm really after so I can then go on to a masters in future if I choose to. It just sucks the only reason i get bad gradesis because the tutors don't like what I'm doing and tell me that fashion is 'Pretentious and competitive - you'll never get anywhere' well no I won't with an attitude like that will I?
This update seems like a lot already so I guess I'll stop now! I have been shooting loads lately if you're interested you can take a look at some stuff on my MySpace page which you can find by clickying HERE!
If you take the time to look please let me know what you think
