One for the road

Online window watching

I’m in a total shopping mood since yesterday. An online shopping mood.

It started with whatshouldiwearbymango where I saw a really nice handbag (and some lovely t-shirts and…).  Then I got this crazy interior-idea, that has something to do with the most beautiful dress I own. I wanted to hang it against the wall, but that doesn’t really show how beautiful it is. Guess what, now I want a dress form. I thought they had something like that at Ikea, so *hup* I’m at the Ikea-site looking around. Then I remembered I still need some happy fabric for a sewing project I’m working on and there I went. *Surfing around*
Since then, I practically went to every online shop I could find, and my wish-list just kept getting bigger.

The internet is bad for your wallet. Luckily I still didn’t buy any of the above. But for how long?

In a couple of months a huge shopping center will open in Kortrijk (the place where I live) so I’m really looking forward to the whole windowshopping-thing (I love that part of the shopping, I hate the fitting-process). There will be a Sasha-store, a Hema and of course H&M but no “exclusive” shops. I’m hoping for a Men@Work, I really want a Diesel shop and naturally: the Mango-shop. And, don’t forget, Urban Outfitters!

I guess I’m turning into a real girl now eh? Where is the time I was wearing the clothes my aunt gave me?

A picture to go please:

365!

Today is the 36th day of my 365-project on Flickr: “A picture a day keeps the doctor away“. Too bad that isn’t true, because I already spend a week in bed.

I hope you like the pictures, and I hope I can keep this up for another 11 months.
It is quite difficult actually. Some days I just go to school and come home, so nothing interesting there.

Guess I have to be creative this year :)

That Flickr pro-account is slowly getting on my buy now-list :)

Lovely Flowers V

That last flower was from September the 30th. I hear you thinking: “No way that has been standing in your room for so long”. Thank god: you’re right. I think I’ve been without flowers for a little less than 2 weeks. When you’re sick, you don’t really want to go out and look for another flower. And then you have school. Busy busy busy.

But! I’ve got one now! A beauty!

College degree, internship, bunny and one for the road

Yesterday I finally got my college degree! *happy me* Not that it means I don’t have to study anymore, because I started a new thing at college. Although I liked Multimedia and Communications Technology (that’s what I did the past 3 years), it wasn’t totally me. I really liked designing, but the programming-part was hell for me. So, in 2 years (hopefully), I have another college degree in my hand named “Communication management” and my specialty will be advertising.

Tomorrow I’m starting my internship at Proximity BBDO in Brussels. I’m really looking forward to it. It’s only 8 days, but I hope I’m going to learn a lot in those days.
Today my books arrived from Amazon for the internship, so I’m reading my way through the day! I’ve got to read “Zag: The Number One Strategy of High-Performance Brands” and “Ogilvy on Advertising“.
Wish me luck ;)

Speaking of wishes. You can now send them to me through a bunny (you’ll find the form in the sidebar). Yes, I know, nothing new but it was standing here doing nothing at all, so why not use it? Me and my friends had a lot of trouble with configuring the Nabaztag because of some.. well, I don’t know exactly. But it works now! So you better send a lot of messages! :)
