Soooo, we're still having problems with our internet. We had it very briefly yesterday afternoon, then Kayley's brother proceeded to be on the phone to Sky for what seemed like hours. We are internetless again. I wish I understood technology!
Anyway here's a few photos of what I've been up to over the past week. Chilling with my cat in the sun at mum's, sitting on the beach between doctor's appointments, baking a billion cakes (these ones in particular are carrot cupcakes - yummy! Will post a recipe next time I make them!) and making a full colour zine for my best friend's birthday. I also bought him about 8 zines so he had a nice little pile of them, although two of them are sitting on my desk as they arrived after the weekend! Below are a few of my favourite pages from the one I made! It's basically a collection of work I've done over the past year, with a few tweaks.
Since then I've been recovering from yet another horrible cold, going to Wagamama on a dinner date (mmmm I want more noodles now) and making a fox costume and birthday presents. I'm going to blog about the fox tomorrow, all will become clear!
I also got the loveliest email from one of the girls I did the Company Casting Call with, Sarah. She has a lovely way with words, and it brought tears to my eyes. My first impressions of her being a sweetheart were definitely correct!
FINALLY, the new issue of Company Magazine is out either today or tomorrow. I think there may be a small photo of me in it, but as I didn't get through to the final 6, it'll be full of the lovely faces some of the other girls! I think you should all buy it, because you get to see enough of my mug on here as it is :)
