I can see clearly now the rain has gone

It's that song they use on the advert for.... some form of yoghurt I think. But I was reading the blog called "The Daily Nail" and one of her posts had this title which seemed very appropriate for the weather we're having in Lincoln at the moment. The coat is off and I think summer is surely just around the corner. I can't wait!

I can't believe how long ago it is since I wrote one of these last. Time just seems to be slipping through my fingers since I got back from San Francisco, but hopefully with a week of no lectures being in my flat I should be able to sort my life out. I've finally done the clever thing and got myself a copy of the student finance application form, so will hopefully have that done and sent off by the end of easter. I'm going to be working on my history stuff over easter and it shouldn't take too long, I only have 2 of the 4 essays I can work on anyway because we're half way through the television section of work and I've already done the 19th century essay. Me and Lauren are heading into town to find the elusive "collection" art gallery to see if we can find any work we like and just so we can stick 2 fingers up at our lecturer and say we have been. Unfortunately, my last unit of work for photography - portrait of a worker - didn't go according to plan due to a faulty flash gun and my forgetful memory so I'll be adding yet another photoshoot to the already done 2 lots, not that I can see my dad complaining about that, I think he's rather been enjoying cooking eggs and bacon for me every day before he starts working and I start taking the pictures. Speaking of past projects, here is my video project:


I really don't like it, but well, I'm only just starting out as a video maker and I probably won't carry on after this year. I'm much more excited about my next unit of work! It's called "single take" and I think it's going to be really hard to shoot but if it ends up anything like what I have in my head it'll definitely be something to be proud of. I'm considering making a brand new blog all together for my photography work, or maybe a website but I don't really want to pay the horrific prices for an actual website while I'm not making any money.

Speaking of... I got a few photography jobs on my way! My friend Amy wants some pictures of her with her band for CD covers and posters and things and has asked me to do the work, also my mum's friend has asked if I'll do the same for her stain glass work and they're both paying me, so I'm quite excited. especially as it'll all be work worthy of my portfolio, or so I hope.

I promise I'll try and write more often, but at the moment my medication isn't doing everything I need it to, so I've been pretty worn out recently. I'm going into hospital for a blood test over easter so they can sort out what medication I need to be on and how much I need, so until then, I'm going to be very worn out, so I'm sure you can forgive me for making this so brief and not writing much. I will write again soon. Ciao for now.
