Yaay, summer vacation! :)
We just finished our school with a fashion show today, and I think it went pretty well. :)
I'm now (or after tomorrow) officially on 'leave'.. isn't that what you call it. I'm taking half a year off, to get on top, and to work on my own things, like websites and own clothing and all that. ;P
I'll just post a couple of pictures of what we've been showing.
Yes, this is me, in my silly dress. The theme was 'the past meets the future'. And in my head it was something like a vistorian dress meeting the future, where we have to recycle everything, including clothing and stuff, so it's made of lots of leftover fabrics and plastic and stuff. It was fun to make - but not very nice to wear, because I had put plastic pieces at the neck.... And when you're nervous on a hot stage, you start to .... sweat... and plastic on hot skin... blahhh... hehe - well, I've learned my lesson there.
This dress was made as a project with 1st and 2nd semester working together. The theme was 'Dinner With The Queen'. So we all made sort of princessy dresses.
The point was that each group had 300 DKR, which is about $50 to buy all our materials. So the pink dress was made of bed linen and plastic bags. The other dresses were made out of old jeans, bought at a second hand shop, more plastic bags, old table covers, old pieces of fabric. It was a fun project. And most of all, we learned to work with each other. :)
This dress was also made with the theme 'past meets the future'. The girl here was inspired by Moulin Rouge meeting Star Wars. I thought that was awesome! ;P
There are tons more pictures, and they are published at my facebook profile here.
My boyfriend and I are pretty busy preparing for Roskilde Festival, but when we're back, we'll be constantly on the net, working on our websites. It's going to be awesome! More tutorials will be made for BeMyGoth.com and the layout will probably be altered (again) as well. ***we'll never be satisfied*** hehe....
Anyhoo - that's it for now... goodnight you. :)

Wow, it's June now
Wow - time flies really fast!
I'm almost done with this semester at school, and I'm really looking forward to the summer holidays! I'm going to Roskilde Festival with Bjarke and some friends - it's going to be awesome!!! ;P
After Roskilde, I'll have so much more time for you! For being creative, and making stuff! That'll be awesome! I'm looking forward to being sort of free. :)
Anyhoo - right now I haven't much to say - just thought I'd 'stop by and say hi'. :)
Talk to you soon

Planning
Oh, my boyfriend and I are planning big things with our internet existence! :)
You might know our site BeMyGoth.com - we're planning on a complete make-over.. And we're not doing it ourselves. We really want it up and running, and frankly, we've found ourselves to be unable to do the job properly, so we're hiring someone to do it for us. And hopefully it'll be so great that we'll see some ROI. ;P That would be SWEET!
I've had a period with illness (again) and I blame the lack of D-vitamin in my body. It causes me to be infected very easily... But now I'm on lots and lots of D-vitamin, so hopefully I won't get so easily sick in the future. ;P
I haven't made anything the last couple of days, but the creativity is springing up again, whilst getting better - so soon I'll be sewing again. (and I have an assignment in school - so I'll have to sew anyway).
Just thought I'd blabber a bit, since it had been a while.
Have a nice Sunday. :)

Back To Life
I'm finally done with the suit I've been working on. I'm having my first day off in a week or so from sewing. *phew* I'm really happy with the outcome, and I hope the one who'll own the suit, will like it as well. :)
Here are some pictures:
The Jacket
The Dress from the side.
A small pocket hidden in the seam. ;P
And a matching purse. :)
I rather enjoy making bags and purses - I think I'm going to more about that. :)
It has taken me about 50 hours to make all these things. I think I can say for sure, that I won't be a tailor, as such. I mean - I like sewing for other people, but sometimes it's just too hard work. I think I'd rather make my own collections or sell unique designs. I think that would be lots of fun. :)

Working
*phew*
Being busy is a tough one.
I'm busy sewing the suit for my boss, and tomorrow is the big "new bishop-day" at church. Pretty intense. :)
I should like to show more pictures in this blog, so I'm going to practise taking pictures and upload them (after tomorrow and after I've finished the suit). It's going to take the rest of today and tomorrow, I'm sure. :) And then I'll be some more on the internet as well.... and I really need to go out and exercise too... phew - being sick is really not good for you health or your belly...hehe.. I'll start skating, yay!
Actually I skated to work today - it was rather fun. I'm looking forward to gaining more balance though. Can be hazardous near other people...
Anyhoo - just an update.... ;P

Course Of Life
I'm kind of deciding where my life is leading me... it's a very interesting place to stand - where I am right now. I feel like I'm at a crossroad, and whichever road I take will lead me somewhere unexpected.
Yes... that's about it for now. :)
I'll keep you updated on which way I'll go.

New Layout & Blabber
I thought I'd just motivate myself by searching for something more lively. And I think I found what I wanted (for now). :)
I've just begun the creation of a dress and a jacket for a person I know - I'm pretty excited about it. And I'll definitely post pictures when I'm done.
(I'll just post a couple of updates here...)
I lost my hat.... :/ And I didn't get to take a picture of it - but I'll make a new one. It was a bit too big anyway.
I've bought a skateboard - so now and in the future I'll be known as the skating seamstress. hehe...
I've taken a blood test at the doctors, and they say I lack D3 vitamins, so I've just started taking D3 vitamins yesterday. If I didn't the result might be fragile muscles and bones when I get older - and it's causing tiredness... I'd like to avoid that. ;P
We've got a new assignment at school - we're to make a show dress, and the theme is: the past meets the future. I'm thinking old-skool designs with plastic materials? maybe... haven't decided yet.
I'm considering taking a leave from my school... about half a years leave, so I can concentrate on this. On the internet. I'm getting a bit tired of not having any money.... *sighs*
I'm going to sing for the Queen of Denmark on Sunday. A new bishop is being ... what's it called... "put in". The old bishop resigned and a new one is taking his place... :) So our choir will sing for our Queen. woohoo. ;P
Just thought I'd write something again to get the feeling of writing in a blog again - it's been a while. ;P
