Ay yi yi yiiiiiiiiiiiiii! So the crafty ladies brigade went so well & I was buzzing all night afterwards from the energy that the 8 amazing ladies who showed up created. It made me so happy to see everyone crafting away and chatting to each other :o) I can't wait for the next one! Now I wish it was every week instead of every other. It'd be nice to get a few new faces to add to the group as well. There were some knitters, scrapbookers, card makers, origami, beads & wire, & jewelry makers. Yay!
I'm going to a lecture tomorrow with a new academic lovin' friend from Bristol, Katie. The lecture is about the history of Bristol and should be really interesting. I'm so happy that I have someone to go along with!
I'm sad to say that I haven't been getting a lot of crafting done lately, because I was away for a few days at Milo's parents house and also I've been applying to graduate programs in Counseling Psychology, so have been shifting my focus a bit to a more academic me for the time being. I have a few entrance essays to write & have been studying for the GRE's which I'll take in London in a month (eeek!) Although, the Bath Christmas Fair is in 3 weeks, so I need to be making an arsenal of crafting goodies to sell! Not enough time!!
It's all a bit sketchy in terms of the job at the moment, so waiting on a phonecall.... Have done a sweet deal with a yoga studio here in Bristol (Bristol City Yoga) to work as an apprentice/intern, trading admin skills for free classes & teaching tutorials. :o)
Here are some things I have been working on.. new journals & I've been making lots o' bookmarks with my new laminator.
How is everyone's November so far? What's keeping you motivated during these dark & cold nights that seem to stretch on forever? For me it's 1. lots of tea 2. watching The Wire on dvd (soooo good!)
