if at some point we all succumb for goodness sake let us be young.

Me and Angie have been put together to work alongside a third year to help them complete there final collection. Our class got split up into partners or for some people were put by themselves and then we were paired up alongside a third year ! I was really happy to be working with Angie for it as although we're very different we get eachother which is nice to have and we dont stress eachother out and we have a good time! Anyway the third year we were put with is a girl named natasha, or tasha for short ! She showed us what shes doing for her final collection and the fabrics she had bought and also gave us an insight into how she works. She also showed us our portfolio and to be honest it was so refreshing to talk to someone who told you it how it is, that we NEED to sort out out portfolio now and what should be going in it and what shouldnt and also ive been getting really worked up over pattern cutting for our lasercutting project and she showed us how simple it is really which helped me so much ! Her fabrics bought from paris were amazing and it also gave me a kind of price average to how much ill be spending on my final collection. It was also a little scary as she told us how stressed they are in there group and how so many people dont talk anymore and how not to let people in our group look through our books because alot of people in there group have copied eachothers ideas ! Her collection looks really cool too and shes burning/melting organza and making wearable items but then they have alot of stuff that is attached to it with all these awesome techniques and thats what im interested in doing things differently and so is Angie so we were really really happy!! Its so good i feel to be put with third years, we only spent half an hour talking to her and we'll have so many more hours to come, but when we were talking i gained so much insight and information into how we'll be working next year and into our third year ! Also helping them is going to give us an amazing chance to work with different fabrics and beautiful fabrics, whilst also learning new techniques and getting to experiment with these techniques! It was so sunny today and I wore my sandals and it made my day even better i love summer shoes!
