Here goes...

It’s nearly impossible to remain objective on Friday when friends try to lure you into their sob stories. There’s a bit of a “poor me” complex going on and it’s time you speak up about it. Be compassionate but firm. Try to steer people towards their own responsibility in the matter; that’s the way to truly empower them. Saturday’s Virgo moon opens up new avenues for romance. An unconventional social event could turn into your personal “singles mingle” mixer–who knew? Roll with it, Pisces. There’s no controlling when and where the universe will deliver true love. On Sunday, you’re longing for deeper connections with people. This has to start with you. Pave the way for intimacy by revealing more personal information to someone you’ve kept at arm’s length. The awkward phase passes quickly and you could end the weekend feeling “as thick as thieves.”

Installation Art





Love this man's work.
Mark Jenkins.
He does a couple of different things, one is placing see-through plastic babies around the city, such a wierd result.
Another is creating lifelike models and placing them in interesting locations.

One Of The Most Beautifully Photographic Places I Have Been To.



Venice. Can't say much more than: if you are into beautiful lighting in photos... go here at least once in your life.

We got flooded in but was perfect while it lasted. The hotel room was stunning in itself.

A rather memorable college trip to Paris




Spent some time (too much time) in the Paris Catacombs.
Possibly one of the wierdest places i have stepped foot in.
Wall to wall skulls and human bones, lit by small dingy yellow tungsten bulbs.
Got some interesting lighting and photos, but also nearly got beaten up by a girl who wasn't overly impressed by my childish sense of humour when i tried to scare her.... sorry.
Also, probably shouldn't have eaten a baguette with skull dust still on my hands.

- I will upload more at a later date when I have access to my own laptop.

This is a piece i did for my Art Diploma, entitled 'Identity'



To say i owe this girl majorly would be an understatement.
Two hours in the cold, dark woods, laying in god knows what, with ants crawling up her dress, fake blood everywhere and even throwing herself down a muddy bank into a stream all for these images... Tanith, your a icon.

Thought it was time i added some personal work...

One of my images i never know if i'm happy with ... I think one think that all photographers (that sounds so egotistical) have in common is a massive sense of self criticism, which i guess is a good thing?

Daily Horoscope time

It’s not about complaining, but you are suddenly filled with more than your fair share of disgruntled feelings and need a place to vent. You can’t bottle up too many feelings over many days without it starting to take a toll on your physical wellbeing. Confide in a trusted friend.

Best Video.... la la planes

Moved house about 2 and a half weeks ago...


It's pretty much in the middle of nowhere... Tragic. Slightly killing me as i'm deffinately a city girl.
Although, quite enjoying the space and time to think about stuff.

Swine Flu just got fresh.



A bit worried... been spending time with Miss Laszlo and now feel grim...
A warning to you Lizz, if i DO have swine flu, I will ring you every day to moan about it.

Crackden



Basically, life is back to normal, Lizz and I have our crackden back and are fully making the most of it.

Disgusting? Yes, probably.

Daily horoscopes? Might try and live by these for a month and see what happens.

Stop telling yourself you’re not a “real” artist, Pisces, and avoid any other silly self-denial nonsense. Today’s eclipse is insisting that you start to recognize your own creative gifts without apology, without exception, without excuse. And yes, this means you need to do something with your gifts in a real way.
