"whenever you see me you say that you want me back"



I love Wednesdays. They treat me good. I'm always happy on a Wednesday. Wednesday's are the new black.

Top 3 Wednesday wonderfulness:

1. The Pecha Kucha tonight at the Power House. Loved the venue. Loved the people. L o v e d the cute boys.
2. The olivebread I baked from scratch. Love homemade bread. Oh yes I do.
3. Three bean salad with avocado and couscous. A book that makes me cry. And a slice of stillhotfromtheoven bread.



Oh God.
I do love Wednesdays.

"come what may. lay your eggs where it's warm"




Yesterday was just an awesome kind of a day. I can't put my finger on why. But it just was. So today I decided to celebrate that by doing something different. Being a bit artsy partsy. I'm taking one photo an hour. All day. Just so you can see how a day with no uni is for me. I.e probably quite boring but yet lovely at the same time.

Oh and I just did the craziest thing ever. You will hear all about it when it's confirmed to happen.

And the image of this morning is of the Great Tit. My favourite bird. Just like that. It's out there. You know all about it now. Hate the name. Love the bird.

Miss you all peeps. A lot.

"there's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be"


Wow it's hot here in Brissy today. Sunny, and hot, hot, hot.

When I haven't been sitting outside in the sun I have been playing with paper. Zaha Hadid style. (Well, mine looks like shit in comparison but you get the idea.) And one thing that strikes me is that I really miss living with Emma and Rhona. In our flat it was okay to spend a whole day lying on the floor cutting into paper. Here, in the house of 46 Heidelberg Street, everyone. Listen to me: e v e r y o n e is an engineer. Do you think they make fun of my cutting and colouring and drawing. Mhm sista, yes they do.

But I made a concept model of a shelter for the heat that has photovoltaics on top and Islamic patterns cut into it so it makes nice shadows on the ground. Super Ivan laughs. I say I'm awesome. (Oh, and yes. Calm down, it's not the final product. I will not have pictures of Canadian towels and pink bikinis when I actually present it.)

Tonight we're going to the cinema. And all I can say is baby steps dear readers. Baby steps...

“i am an artist, i am an art bitch. i sell my paintings to the men i eat.”



Trying to be a healthier, sexier and generally better person 2010 I decided to join my cousin Hanna’s postcard swap in an attempt to be a bit more artsy. It all went okay I guess, quite proud of my ten postcards that I now have sent off to England, USA, New Zealand and Norway.

About becoming healthier and sexier.. Well I’ll keep you posted on that.
