yeah, i know... i mean, i never did big things in design [that's what we called textiles], and i was always stressing... and i quit after year 9, because the work that i did in year SEVEN was more complex than the year 9 work [at a different school though]. it annoyed me, and they didn't offer it in year 12 at the new school Sad
seriously though, you can do it =)
..just like i can write 2000 words tonight... right?
1800 actually... i love that 10% rule Wink

Amy- I made this big fancy Helena inspired dress XD
It was actually surprisingly good, but I changed my mind 3747245062 times when I was doing the surface decoration, I think that pissed my teacher off quite a lot. I was considering wearing it to my formal, but yeah, it ended up being more of a wearable-textile-art (or whatever it was called, I don’t remember anymore!) than apparel.

Sez- LMFAO
I’m doing the exact same thing tonight XD
At least I’ve actually started this assignment though… unlike my last one where I didn’t even think about it until the day it was due >.<

lmfao
Have fun with that!
Good luck with your exams though!


Arghhhhhhhh. You just reminded me that I have to go through all that textbook shit AGAIN >.<
It’s so ridiculous, at my uni they don’t order enough books for everybody who does the unit, so unless you get to the bookstore really quick, you miss out for ageeeeeeeees.
And in the meantime the lecturers & tutors rant at you for not having a book.
So bloody annoying.

Lol, I’m whinging about that, yet I haven’t even had that problem yet XD

ahah helena inspired dress...mcr creeps in everywhere.

good luck with exams everyone! domeofstars why do your exams start on a saturday? that's terrible!

remember how i dreaded today's class? i was right. I hate that drape class teacher with all my guts. She gave me her shitty, you-can't-design-for-crap-so-i'm-the-boss attitude. That woman is so mean. I'm just so sick of that project and fed up with losing sleep (i slept at 4:30am this morning)- i was sitting in class listening to I think The Ataris or Matchbook Romance i think feeling morbid and almost started crying again. Cry

oh yeh- my friend was fitting her top on the model & that teacher told her "I like the wristband of your watch...but i think the watch looks cheap"

WTF??!

Smile thanks everyone *feeling very warm & fuzzy inside*

it seems like the case with teachers but i'm reluctant to completely agree becuz four of my high school friends are going to become teachers & that's not very nice to them! but look at the UAI for maths teachers- no wonder most of our maths teachers sucked.

if there's a solid proof that drinking helps write essays, then hand over the alcohol to moi! even disgusting beer...

i have that one nightmare assessment left for the semester- got 2 outta the way today- paying the price of an all-nighter & 1hr of sleep at 11am.

So I'm submitting my timetable preferences for next semester, and all the good times are the same for like all my classes. I might be about to prove that you can squish everything into 2 days, but I really don't want to. 5 classes back to back through till 6pm? oh god no, i really might drop out then.
mmk, whingeing suspended for now, heres hoping the timetable fairies love me.

i'm freakin on HOLIDAYS!!!!!
my life for the past few days have been turned upside down- saturday morning: woke up at 4am & started sewing- went to work- woke up at 9am on sunday = the beginning of the night mare: sewed till 12am & slept- got up at 3am monday morning & sewed till 4am the next morning (25 hours) & only rested for meals & toilet- slept 4 hours, rushed the rest of the assignment & handed in at 2pm...went to work...& surprisingly i was still alive to close the shop properly. The assignment was terrible- a whole third of the ppl couldn't make it to hand in on time.

you know how i celebrated it after presenting the garment on the model today? went to pancakes on the rocks for dinner with a friend & ran wild screaming at the kids play equipment on darling harbour & played on the slide.

congratulations everyone's who've made it to the holidays!

WHAT THE FUCK.
I just got an email from my Writing As Communication tutor saying that she never recieved my assignment.
I KNOW it got there, because my Mum drove me down to uni so that I could hand it in! I nagged her so much to drive me down there, because I don't like posting assignments because I have a severe paranoia issue with that, I always think they'll get lost in the mail or something.
Now I'm going to lose marks, and it isn't even my fault. Obviously somebody at the uni has screwed up, because I KNOW I handed the assignment in.
