Title?

"pinafores and bedjackets: a collection of non co-ordinates"

or

"susi kettu" (wolf fox in finnish)

I think the second one is cutest. if you say it outloud it sounds nice.

I had my toile fitting crit today, the amount I am rubbish at patterncutting has almost made me want to cry. The amount of work I need to do in the next 5 weeks is almost stupid. I wish I had managed my time better. I am feeling more motivated now though.But going out has to stop.

I did get a first year helper today though. Her name is Heather, I have seen her out in bluenote a number of times. I think we shall get on well...

I tried to post my image for the Graduate Fashion Week stand but I couldn't get it to work. I also couldn't get it to save as a jpeg. Today has not been my day quite obviously. I would like someones opinion, I'm not sure if its the best piece of work to portray myself as a fashion graduate. I am also not sure if I actually care.

Instead I will post the lyrics to this song:

SCATTERED PEARLS

the clasp broke at the disco Mom I'm sorry& the older men who hit on Becky
nearly broke their necks on scattered pearls
& we searched the best we couldfor two entire songs we knelt & felt along
the place where we had stood
but we only found 7 of Grandmother's pearls

& as we rode the bus home I thought surely
I'd wake up tomorrow just to findthat I had dreamed up everything
there'd still be pearls on a string
I wouldn't smell like smoke & I'd still
have the cash that I had spent on drinks
oh I feel as scattered as Grandmother's pearls

Mom don't cry they're only pearls

indeed...
