well, theyre here. ive got my grades! i called up the other day and found out id got a 2:1 over all! so after all that worrying and hard work, its all a.ok! thanks to everyone (i promise this aint gonna be too much of an oscar-esque speach!) whos helped keep me sane while ive been a proper stress head and thanks for all the congratulations from people! much appreciated! id also like to say a huge thanks to john john who posted a nice comment on his blog! :-) http://www.banana-hammock.blogspot.com/ im just at home now chillaxing and trying to unpack my bedroom (how did i gather all this rubbish over a year?!). im enjoying being in my own bed too after that minging hostel! thats about it for now. ttfn xx

maybe its because im a londer.......(well not quite!)

this is just a quickie to say hi and that im still on this planet, just been really busy! today is the last day of the london degree show on brick lane. its gone quite well, not as much business as everyone was expecting but never mind. the venue is amazing, really nice and spacious and everyones work looks really good. its nice to get the chance to show in london cos itll never happen again! the private show was brill, it was at night and we had a dj playing his 'choons'. it was really busy too which was cool! the hostel we are staying in in camden leaves a bit to be desired but hey hehe. i might even say that some of the places i stayed in in india were better! :-S the rooms are really cramped, 6 to a room and it smells like wet dogs cos everyone leaves their towles out to dry! it also boiling and the matresses are plastic (just like halls all over again!). it was mums birthday last sat so her and dad came up and we went for a meal with my aunt, uncle and cousin...

well thats it, ive got one day left of being a student. scary thought! cant believe its all over. :- the exhibition went well, the private show was packed, which considering the heat, wasnt really a good thing!! its been really hot over the last few days, proper english summer (too hot and muggy! hehe) although it only lasted a few days then cooled down and started raining again! chuh. we had lots of people looking round on all the days really which kept us busy. it was quite nice people watching and hearing the comments about your work. i also had lots of friends coming to look which was nice and meant alot. so cheers to everyone that did come and see it! :-) i sold two pieces, one paper design, the other was a woven sample. id also made some ties and i had alot of interest from blokes and girls! i was really pleased with the way it looked cos it was different from the rest of the weave displays and if im happy with it, thats all that matters! THE KTP SHOW! ive only go...

lady of leisure
