HUFF!
Isn't it annoying when you just can't get the hang of something straight away??
To honest, I'm finding the whole Illustrator/In design part of the course very hard. I just can't seem to remember all the little things that makes Jamie be able to copy my design in minutes.
Honestly, today I was playing with Illustrator for about 2 hours and I didn't even finish my Folk design.
Trying to have a complete blog meltdown, but I'm finding the whole importance of IT skills quite disheartening.
I know the help is there if I need it, but i just tend to panic.
On a more positive note, Zoe, Harriet and I had our first meeting about our 'Frock Exchange' fundraisor for the second years fashion show. We have decided to do it in the last week of Januray and advertise EVERYWHERE!
I shall definately keep you posted on the latest news!! V exciting isn't it??

MASS DEBATORS!
Oh my goodness I havn't discussed the Fahion debate that we did yesterday yet!
For our PPRD project, we were asked to prepare for a debate about the contraversial topics of;
'What is the point of Ethical Fashion?'
and
'What is the point of Couture?'
Being on the AGAINST team, we had a very challenging task to reserch. We had to argue the downfalls and disadvantages of Ethical Manufacture and Haute Coutute.
We gathered information, facts and figures to throw back at the FOR team for Tuesday.
All in all the debate went brilliantly! The other team came so prepared and put up a real and engaging debate.
In the end we lost the arguments against couture (which I'm a bit knarked about...obviously) and we won the Ethical arguement.
The other team were awesome. They stuck to their arguments and it was evident that both teams had researched all areas of the topics.
For someone who HATES confrontation, I loved it!! Thanks PPRD!

More of a low, to be honest...:(
Construction!
Please, before I explain today's lesson, don't think that I don't love constructing garments because I do.
But.....OH MY GOD!!!!!
It can be done I am sure, BUT mine was never perfect and I did start to panic and eventualy I fell a bit behind!
I will have to go in tomorrow on the studio day to catch up.
I have to learn to listen correctly the first time and not to panivc when things go wrong!
Thank goodness for Jane and Caroline.
