Well what a difference four years makes!

Hello all,

It's been four years and 1 day since my last post and I am making a promise now that I will post a blog at least once a week with an update on what I am working on in the sidelines alongside my normal 9-5 day job. 

Quick update:

- still at the same place I have been since the last post

- also now the editor of the local parish magazine

- and more recent news just raised £800 for Breast Cancer Care with a strawberry tea event in the local village hall. Even made it into the paper! 

Anyway that's all for now folks and speak to you much sooner than last time!

Long Time No See - and all that!

I was hoping to be able to hold out and not blog but no I am weak. So 'what's occuring?' as Nessa from Gav and Stacey would ask, well still in same job as mentioned below and still loving it as much, despite still working long hours I do still want to get up in the morning and go to work.

Other than work I'm boring, it's work during week, pub from Fri evening until Sun and then the circle starts again. Hoping to grab another hol to Cyprus again just before Christmas to get a real winter tan!!.

Any way I promise to have something exciting to say on my year of no blogging anniversary!

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.
