I’ve being away for a while cos I had to do my exams. I had to do contract law, constitutional and company. I had real property, tort and criminal last year and thought that nothing could suck more than criminal but then of course I had to do company. Honestly, its pretty much exactly how you would imagine; boring as hell. I’m usually ok about exams and just glad to have them over but I couldn’t even study company properly because I’d sit down thinking that I was really going to concentrate and get into it but then my mind would wonder onto other more insignificant stuff so without realising I’d be daydreaming for ages instead of studying. I actually couldn’t sleep I was so worried. I was having a worse freaker because I know that if you’re a borderline pass or fail on a subject they look at how many lectures you attended, which was none so that would have been me screwed! I kept thinking of the meltdown that I’d have if I couldn’t answer the questions. They would have had to bring me out in a straightjacket. Seriously, I had it planned. When I eventually got the paper I think everything went really well actually but I’m refusing to be excited or throw out my notes because you never know and I don’t want to jinx myself.

On top of all that exam crap I decided that the end of November would be a real good time to agree to write a tutorial for an upcoming issue in a Polymer clay zine which was less straight forward that you’d imagine actually. The point of being in the zine was to generate more publicity for my shop and it did….in December! When I finally got through my exams and all the other stuff I’d gotten myself into I noticed that it was Christmas. Oh goody, so now I end up doing ALL my Christmas shopping on Christmas Eve. I was so distracted that for my pièce de résistance I also left it too late to order the Christmas hamper that my mother wanted from The Harvest Kitchen and yes, she loved that!

I sorta feel like I should upload something fantastic and be all like yea, I was away for a while but look, look what I did!.. I’ve got nothing, nothing at all but I’ll make something soon, I can’t guarantee it will be fantastic though

Listening to: Bang Bang You're Dead - Dirty Pretty Things
Watching: Hostel

Okay, I promised myself that I wouldn’t do anymore ranting here and I’m not going to, well for a while anyway, but my poor journal is in serious need of an update so, although all of the deviants on my friends list are totally deserving of the pageview, I’m going to mention three people who I think are amazing and ask you to visit them:

[link] - Because I’m lovin her creative use of fibres and the natural, organic feel of her work.
[link] - Because I really love her clever use of colours and she’s not getting the attention she deserves, so you should bring her a too!
[link] - Who is really ahead of her time. Her work is so avant-garde and has a certain wow factor!

A big, big thank you to everyone that’s watching, all the favs & comments, everyone has been really supportive here and I appreciate it a lot!

Firstly, I want to thank everyone for their kind comments & encouragement, favs, for watching and everything. I really do appreciate it.

Lately, as you might of guessed, I’ve been on some sort of crazed jewellery making rampage but I am indeed scheming to make some spirit dolls using all sorts of mixed media that I’ve been hording for a while so you should be seeing those soon or at least soonish. Also, I normally use oils or acrylics in my paintings but lately I’ve been experimenting with watercolours so I’ll be posting some of that as well.

On a completely irrelevant note, Ireland is suffering some sort of freak heat wave . One week it’s lashing rain, as usual and I mean teaming out of the heavens which pissed me off cos all my trousers are too long and I’m too lazy to turn them up so the bottoms kept getting wet. Then, BANG, out of nowhere. A freak heat wave. Yes, it’s like 20° which by Irish standards = freak heat wave. It’s weird but possibly cruel comeuppance for complaining about the rain all the time.

Anyho, there it is - first journal entry/unplanned mini rant! ]]> ~TenJewel
