6 months later ......

Well well well, its been 6 months since I moved to Leeds and started this course. I can’t believe time has gone by so fast- to be honest its really really scary. I mean we are so close to the end of the first year and more students are moving into our place!

Though I think I have settled into Leeds – I still feel like this is slightly temporary – it’s weird because I still go through phases where I’m quite eager to go home. I think this is partly because I live in the middle of the countryside at home- which is sooooo different to Leeds and sometimes when I’m really stressed out I just want to go back to a more chilled lifestyle for a few days of relaxation!

I was sooooooo pleased with my creative design practices module mark, I got 80 % I actually can't believe it! I think it was partly because I enjoyed the project so much that I worked harder on it.
I feel like I’ve come really far though because for my first module I felt I had tried really hard and to be honest was quite upset when I realised I had 57% (which looking back really wasn’t that bad). But now I can see such a positive change in my sketch book style. It’s funny though because I remember saying to some of my flatmates that I didn’t think I would ever get anywhere near a first!

We had a new brief last week and I’m sooooo exited to start researching it ! The word we are exploring is metamorphosis – we also get to illustrate our design at the end which I’m really looking forward too.

Also I’ve heard that our millinery elective marks are in so I will get mine 2moro !!!
