Hi hi hi hi!
Two more weeks left before I complete my degree. Graduation is in May.
EXCITEMENT.
But also, scared shitless. Two more assignments left. One due on Wednesday - a 2500 word advertising report + a 1500 word essay (my penalty for missing half of a workshop a few weeks back FML). Then my final photography task due on the following Monday.
I can't wait.
What will I do when I finish?!
Jobs jobs jobs.
Speaking of which, I was a finalist for a Communication Council grad trainee program. I went to the assessment day yesterday but was UTTERLY SHIT-ASS HOPELESS. I didn't sleep all night because my body suddenly decided to hate me and I acquired a severe stomach ache. Besides that, I had stress with other things going on and during the day, couldn't concentrate and was relying on the night to get me by to prepare myself for my planned presentation/pitch among other things. But with all the pain, I was just lying in bed wincing. Story of my life.
So yesterday, I was blanked out most of the time. I could barely keep myself awake. I was way under-prepared. I was jittery, felt sick, delivered material I wasn't comfortable with and felt condescended as a result. Basically, boo-fricking-hoo, BUT it's all over now! I'm hoping to rely on this experience (because it was pretty amazing and unique) to motivate me to seriously apply myself to future job prospects. Preparation, preparation, preparation!
I'm disappointed in myself because I know I could have done much better, but you gotta move along, right? It wasn't the be all of my career. I know how passionate I am about advertising so I don't doubt that I'll find myself in the industry one way or another.
On another note, here are teasers for a fashion shoot I did for my friend, Tina's fashion line. Visit her: lookbook.nu/trulabel.

And, I want to spend this Christmas and New Years Eve with you. Is it worthwhile to fly back to see you? I miss you.
