the long and winding road

Photos as promised.

Well, today I had my art exam. This involved a forty-five minute oral where I explained my work and my madness. I think it went quite well, however sometimes it was difficult to gauge the examiners reaction. But he gave some excellent advice concerning my CRB (candidate record book) which is to be examined later. It's rather nice to have it over. Furthermore, I only have five subjects to worry about now. I'm practically a VCE student (the slackers). Anyway, below are photos of the exam layout and the chair in detail. All stenciling, painting and varnishing was made/done by hand (and yes, MY hands).

The chair looks best with dirt in the pots

In other news...

The things I do for my family. Many of you may already know that I was Alana's model in the VCE fashion show. There was a lot of make up (especially around the eyes, I looked rather 'raccoony') and hairspray (see bird's nest). These photos were taken after Alana's fashion show. But don't be fooled. This was me with my hair down and my eye make up removed. It was truly frightening. I'm still waiting for photos of the actual night. However, I've heared good things about the show. WELL DONE ALANA!

I'm bored. I should be doing my history IA, but I just can't bring myself to do it right now. So I'll do something a bit mindless instead.

~ Choose a singer/band/group
~ Answer using ONLY titles of songs by that singer/band/group
~ Tag 6 more people (let them know they've been tagged)

Those who wish to procrastinate are automatically tagged.

And I choose The Beatles. By the way, a prize to the first person to correctly count the number of The Beatles titles in this blog.

Oh! Darling

4. How would you describe your previous relationship?
I’ll Cry Instead

5. Describe your current relationship.

6. Where would you want to be now?

7. How do you feel about love?
All You Need is Love

8. What's your life like?

9. What would you ask for if you had only one wish?

10. Say something wise.

The Beatles wrotes some very strange songs, with even more bizzare titles. I'm upset that I wasn't able to use;

~ Baby, Let's Play House
~ Leave my Kitten Alone
~ Lend me Your Comb
~ Maxwell's Silver Hammer
~ Run For Your Life
&
~ Ps. I Love You

But alas ... 'The End'

Is this true?

ob-la-di ob-la-da...

life goes on.... after school. That's right. Term is over and now I am able to devote some much needed time and attention to my family, friends, my schoolwork (gross) and most importantly ... myself. Aside from the mountain of french homework mme. V gave me, I plan to do a combination of courageous and exciting things. All with camera in hand ... so watch this space if you want to be assulted by holiday happy snaps.

Now I'm off to jump on a plane, but brace your self for a sincere tribute to Port Douglas, cupcakes and tea time in the days to come.
