finally went back into school today and sorted out my space. it had been taken over at the end of last term by the design student's assignments, so i needed to reclaim my space. i had taken down the print outs of my blog images down from my house a while ago, having decided that actually having in them in my lounge was not the best place for them. so now they decorate my space in at cpit.
i have been 'growing' my hair for about 4 years now, after many many years of having my hair short. there were numerous attempts over the years to grow my hair out, but i always get frustrated when it doesn't grow much past my shoulders. this time i managed to be patient, and it has grown well past my shoulders, but...probably eighteen months ago it stopped again. or rather, i guess, to keep it healthy, each time i go to the hairdresser whatever has grown since last time, gets cut off.
so i guess this is the length my hair will remain, albeit, going shorter.
being sick sucks! having a snotty nose is foul! especially as i get the most horrid red nose from blowing it over and over. today it feels like my head is going to explode.
flippen auckland, i swear it's something about it. i always get sick when i go up there! to be fair, it's probably the plane flight that causes it. usually i consume large amounts of roasted garlic, a good ole trusty cold-killing method of mine. forgot this time....paying for it now.
if only i could get a temp job answering 0900 calls - i'm sure i'd earn a packet!
i love sun in winter when you can lie in front of a window and suck it up. alas the only window that gets great sun in our house is in the kitchen where the table is. at least i have somewhere to lie down....terry likes it too!
headed back to the ch' early this arvo. being a non-drinker there was no hangover to speak of, just a very thick headcold, ugh, snot city!
while we had been away caf (christchurch arts festival) had started. as part of the festival this year, cpit had launched the creative industries faculty, which was created at the start of this year to combine all creative schools, within the polytechnic, under one umbrella. each of the design streams had work shown on make-shift stands designed by architecture students, along high st. along with two others, the boy and i had our work chosen to represent the photography dept. yay. it looked pretty impressive too, i have to say :)
jury is still out as to whether i like weddings or not. whether it's just i'm not a partier, or the fact that all my friends are 'stand-alone' friends, so whenever i go to one i don't really know anyone else. today's one had added pressure, being the photographer, the first 'wedding' i've shot to boot.
once again it was not a pleasant morning for boy(who by the way was helping me shoot the day's events). i was foul!! hmmm, need to work on that. finally decided what to wear, thank goodness. it helped that it was a lovely day out.
we finally got there, a little late, but then they were running late anyway - so no worries!
we went off and did our thing, and after the first few shots it was sweet as. well i'm never happy with my work, so it was as sweet as good be with my stupid standards. the ceremony was a little harder, just due to positioning etc. but we had it covered with the two of us. we also decided to use my blackboard & get the guest's to write a note and then snap them. 
some of my fav snaps of the day are on my stuff about me blog. check it out.
