Catch Up Meeting

Sorry for not coming on recently been busy busy busy. Graduated from Uni and then came home to find that job. But no not any job a job I actually want. Easier said than done I hear you cry. Well alas! I am now officially a marketing and advertising executive for a undisclosed company. But a huge mail order company made up of lots of lil brands. Loving it!!!

Dispite only being paid from 9am till half 5 I seem to be always bringing work home with me and leaving late - but do you know what I actually dont care its a job I want. Which for a graduate getting a job I want and enjoy this soon after finishing is ace. Im proud of myself. Is that bigheaded of me?? Aint suppose to be.

 Saw this and thought some were funny look out for the Ikea stools ad. 

OH and quickly wanna say I am uber excited one of my closest mates is coming home from France after being there for 2 years tomorrow - PARTY TIME!!!

Final Countdown and all that

Right so its the final two weeks until all my work has to be in to end this degree. I came home for a week to crack on, it all started well then i got ill. But thats no excuse so now Im back up to uni today and will be keeping my head down ful steam ahead for the next two weeks then ill check in tel ya all how it goes. and i promise ill get work on my portfolio blog when im happy with it. which at this rate will be after the 23rd when judgement day begins.

till then Bye Bye everyone Bye Bye

Three little words but such a big meaning

Ok there are many three little words that mean a lot, the one everyone thinks of is 'i love you' but nope ive decided the best way to describe how im feeling about the final few weeks until my third year at uni is over in a list of three worded sentences and phrases.

The final countdown.

Head. Banging. Brickwall.

Pit of selfworthlessness.

Inspiration needed desperately.

Home to concentrate.

24 days to go. (ok this one is four long but does '24' really count as a word)

Advertising is gay. (its not but sometimes it feels that way)

Extra strong coffee.

General dogsbody needed.

Facebook THE distraction.

My pens poised.

Blank sketch pad.

My heads empty.

Just Do It. (wise words of my tutor about having an idea you're not sure about)

Be a man. (more words from a friend, i was told to shut up, toughen up, and be a man. basically  stop moaning and do my work)

Sun shining outside.

Shops are calling.

Degree show looming.

Portfolio hand in.

and finally, My Works Done. (ok im not at this final part yet but be warned when i do get to here there will be celebrations galore).

right then i suppose i better be a man and just do it. 

does someone have a gun?? no not to shoot myself but to the finish one last three worded phrase - Ready... Steady... 

Saw this on The Chip Shop Awards from last year and made me laugh it doesn't say who did it but its ace and well done. The Chip Shop Awards are basically for ideas you have but they would never run, basically the ideas u have and do just to make you and friends laugh. We all know of some we have done like that.

Bo**ocks

VW Bollocks

This is brill and so true I remember doing a similar thing copying my dad when he said the F word when I was about three.

Wow and the ghd reckoning has come

So not been on here for a while. The amount of uni work is mounting up and the pressure is building dun dun dun. Only 40 days left - thanks Hayley! But while working on my ghd campaign for Tues, more of that later, I had Britians Got Talent on in the background and lil person is fab he is like a young Paul Potts the winner of last years. 

It is amazing.

GHD

Yes well our tutors have set up a external brief with TBWA Manchester for ghd hair stylers. Been working on it for a good few weeks now and finally got the images sorted, laid out and about to press print for the Tuesday meeting. Fingers crossed it goes well.

Just a quick thing about this songs video, really does make me think simple things are the most effective. I love this video simple because you can tell the people were all sat around throwing ideas around to one another with the song on repeat in the background and then one of the guys writes the words on his hand doodling and starts doing this and bam and idea thats ace just like that. Just wish I could do the same. Enjoy!

So bad but so funny.

Is this you?

This made me laugh talk about finding a new market.

A funny mortgage commercial at last.

Grazia Lift/Walk in wardrobe

Me and Debbie (tallerlittlemiss.blogspot.com) have been working on a brief for Grazia magazine. And decided we would do some ambient media and convert a lift into a walk in wardrobe.

Elephant Hand

This ace. I love elephants but this fun. Found it online and couldn't help but spread.

Becky's Demolition Call

Becky, an 8-year-old Irish girl, doesn't like her school. She decides to take matters into her own hands. The result is pure comedy. I know its not real and been set up but still makes me laugh.

Me and my advertising geeks. I'm sat in the middle in white top, red skirt and a mini santa hat. This was us at our christmas stunt brief aka christmas piss up.

The Dreaded First Post

I'm Sophia. Thats all you need to know. For now anyway. Basic stuff: I'm 21, well in March will be. My fave animal is elephants, colour is pink and love mashed potato. Oh and I own over 100 pairs of shoes. Bur other than that wanna know anything msg me, or find me on facebook, thats where its all happening these days isn't it???
