I made a new blog.

It will hopefully be a bit more focussed and worth reading than this one ;)

Hello, long time no rant.

I got promoted (sort of) at work. I'm no longer a mere Cashier, I'm now... wait for it.... a Part-Time Bookseller! Yeah, you heard.

While it's really just more of a shift-around than an actual promotion (I'm only shadowing someone else's section over the weekend while they're not in), I am glad of the recognition. I do a bit more training then my wages go up to just over £6 an hour, and I'm trusted to fill my non-till hours productively without being given crappy, nothing jobs by the duty manager. The part I'm most glad about, though, is that the sections I've been given are Photography, Art, Travel and Foreign Languages, which would indicate that they've actually thought about where I have an interest and a passion and not just where they need an extra body (lord knows Sci-Fi and Graphic Novels needs some help). I'm chuffed because I really like my job and since the start of spring I've put in a lot of effort to prove how much I do like being there. So it's all good in Borders-land, until the company goes under of course.

Glastonbury was really really wonderful. That's all I can say, we did and saw so much stuff, it's just all too much to try to relay in writing without getting over-excited and waffling, I won't be able to do it justice.

That's all really. If any readers of this are Glasto-cynics then that's fine, don't comment and don't buy a ticket so that me and my friends can have as special a weekend again next year.

I went to Paris and took lots of pictures:

*click*

Then I went to London and I didn't take any pictures. But I had a wonderful time getting away for a wee while, and got to see the Rodchenko/Russian Constructivism exhibition a la Tate. This was, naturally, followed by a ridiculous amount of drinking with some quite lovely people, and the rape of one stuffed penguin by another. A hungover stroll the morning after, and then it was time for greasy caf breakfast, chazza shopping and sitting in the sun before hometime. All in all, much much fun was had - ta Miriam!

One thing about all this gallavanting is that I'm becoming increasingly bored by Manchester, and I'm desperately wishing I lived elsewhere.

Wishing I lived in Leeds.

Avoiding uni work like a first-year should.

Recaliming the things I used to love.

Considering returning to the blonde side.

Sketching.

Summer plans... fingers bloody crossed...:

Excellent new denim jacket.

Pinot Grigio, and trying to ween myself off it.

Weekend off work - zero productivity.

Scott Walker.

Borrowing/buying films, with no time to watch them!

Discovering new idols:


Feeling a bit like it's spring, but praying for the summer.

Waiting to see what will happen.

Did my hurrr red:
 
(please excude the dickhead expression, I don't know how I'm ever go to do any actual self portraits)
It's not as bright as it looks under the lights. It was scary as I have been bright blonde for my whole life, and doubley scary as the first box left me with a streaky greyish orange greasy mess - Lauren had to run off to Boots and buy another box while I cowered in her room hoping no one knocked on the door. But I love it now, it's just needs one helluvva CUT. Doesn't it compliment my work shirt beautifully?

ACTUAL ADIVCE NEEDED: I don't know how dark I am going to keep my hair, I may even in 6 months go blonde again - should I use a blonde picture for my new passport?

[Mood | confused]

I can't decide wether I am interested in absolutely everything, or nothing at all.
Pictures, collage, writing, drawing... or maybe just looking at everyone elses' pictures and writing and drawing?
I feel guilty for calling myself a photographer, I haven't taken anything good in weeks (or anything at all... for that matter). I can't see anything anymore, then again I'm not sure if I'm looking. I knew I needed a change and a break, but golly I'm finding it hard to get started again.
I can't wait until I have some free time, maybe then I can find out what's going on.
