Getting Ready

I have spent the majority of today cleaning/re-orgainising my room. my main aim was: transfer the shit i dont use on a regualar basis, into the garage. this included past art/design works from 7 years ago and my many photo albums. i sorted thru my 'folder of inspirations' and threw out what wasn't so inspirational anymore, eg. examples of shit typography in ads and any other ineffective visual communication..

another aim was to make more surface space, this included the floor and shelves. im moving my beloved keyboard into the garage to collect dust, i dont want to but i have to.

i also repaired my cd shelves bcoz the top piece of timber came off. the thing was only stapled on. i felt like such a carpenter, i got my dads hammer and hammered staples out so i could replace them with nails. i had to search the garage for suitable length nails and it was painful to my ear when i hammered them in. i dont think it was meant to be that loud.

Waste not, Want not

I'm trying to do something productive everyday so my life isn't wasted. I write myself a to-do list the night before so it gives me some incentive to wake up (preferably early). Today I have done: - vacuumed my room - sewed the fraying ends of my scarf - sewed the holes in my jacket pocket - transfered my design folios for this semester into adequate storage means - cleaned up my digital photos on the old computer and burned them to CD - charged and updated the photos on my digital key ring for Vman - hang out the wet clothes - folded the dry ones I did that in four hours. Pretty crappy. I have work in 2hours, I gotta get ready soon. My scarf. It took me two days to sew on the gold studs and today to sew up the fraying edges. My holiday to Sydney and Queensland is planned for January 29. 5Days in Sydney and 4days in Queensland. We're only going to two theme parks in the Gold Coast, Movie World and Wet 'n' Wild = my favourites! Return flights, accomodation, transfers and theme park entry is gonna cost about $900 per person which I think is a great deal. It cost $303 for all the flights! $303 are two pairs of sneakers for me, and to think $303 could pay for the flights? Crazy. I'm gonna book the tickets prolly this weekend, then all I'd have to do is tell mum.
