Idiot!<br />secondly, I sliced opened my hand on a pin! Rank!<br />thirdly, I've been so unmotivated! Its madness!<br /><br />But luckily apart from the upon its been a pretty productive week. I've done a little bit of pattern cutting, a little bit of CAD and my dissertation has been going alright.<br /><br />Lets hope it carries on this way.<br /> <br />I can't say I've read my PPD3 brief yet, I just hope its going to be a breeze...probzzz not!<br /><br />P.s and my friends is paying me a birthday visit...wahey!Dawn Melodyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13033405619621192632noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432198724291471456.post-77401476711330155062010-10-20T11:49:00.000-07:002010-10-20T12:02:51.015-07:00PART 2My briefcase got into the exhibition, which I'm chuffed about. I went done to the Light today to see everyone’s work and it all looks so good. I thought that even the people that that didn't get chosen had worked really hard and should be proud of what they've achieved. I was so shocked at the amount of people that were voting, I didn't think it would attract that much attention. I have to admit I was a little disappointed with the layout, as you can't really see my pathways products. I think the products should have been placed forward and the garments behind that way its all very visible. While I was there Ella was manning the exhibition and she said a lot of people even didn’t notice the products or thought they were props and didn’t realise our college had made them. This upset me a bit because I know the people on my pathway put so much work into it, and it seems that its not being recognised. I’m manning the exhibition on Friday and I’m going to make sure people are aware that our pathway exists!<br />Anyway, moving on we got re-briefed on part 2 of ERP on Tuesday and it is a lot clearly now. I’m actually quite looking forward to it. I feel like I’ve learnt from the mistakes I made in part 1 and now know to spend more time on the branding and promotion side instead of letting my product take over. So, I’m going to get my branding done first and then do my designing and prototype as I think I will be able to come up with that a lot quicker than my branding as it something that comes more naturally to me. I’ve already made a start on it today. I’ve been photographing and interviewing and it all seems to be going well so far….lets hope it carries on this way.<br />As for my dissertation, I’ve been trying to divide my time up equally and I tend to do my dissertation stuff in the evening. I have to write my first chapter ready for 3rd Nov! EEEK! I think I just need to make a start really and the rest will follow.<br />Overall, I’m feeling alright about things…..at the moment, but I know what I’m like it could all change very quickly!Dawn Melodyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13033405619621192632noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432198724291471456.post-57919741609074876812010-10-12T09:40:00.000-07:002010-10-12T10:01:50.440-07:00Struggle...I am finding the transition from 2nd year to 3rd year a real struggle. My time management is not great and I feel constantly stressed and upset, and if I'm honest I'm not enjoying the course anymore. I feel like there is so much to do and just no time to do it in. I'm already constantly working and its still not enough. I feel like quitting, but I know I'm too close to the finish line to do that.<br />I feel like I'm going to the leave the course knowing nothing about construction and its getting me down....<br />On a more positive note, I finished my briefcase and I'm really happy with it because its the first thing that I've professionally finished and been proud of. <br />Also Crystal and I have decided get some do some pattern making/construction and have some pattern sessions every Thursday, and hopefully we'll make something for Style Platform in January! I need to do it, there's no point me moaning about something that only I can solve...fingers-crossed it will all run smoothly (although nothing seems to ever run smooth in the life of Dawn Shindler.<br />I've been thinking a lot about the future lately and I want to do a internship in Fashion Buying or PR and I was hoping to do on with Urban Outfitters headoffice as I already work there, but I was recently informed they have stopped taking on interns...so that dreams shattered. And I think this has all added to my stress, I had it all planned out and now I have to re-evaluate my plans.<br />I apologise for the disjointed post I just had to get everything in my head out, it was driving me insane!<br /><br />P.s Here is my briefcase....enjoy<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGP35CiygpOxQ0oHnrmzh8WCq0hksydGJwDXmLXi4GkiGd9EAg7EiV3SxR-8_xueXBpozRCLFic3lsQ1x4Q_werjWSva0G4RXJE-wwWrLJSoDeAohRRJTs4yeuopkc7yaMODNuwSFx2uQ/s1600/100_2511.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGP35CiygpOxQ0oHnrmzh8WCq0hksydGJwDXmLXi4GkiGd9EAg7EiV3SxR-8_xueXBpozRCLFic3lsQ1x4Q_werjWSva0G4RXJE-wwWrLJSoDeAohRRJTs4yeuopkc7yaMODNuwSFx2uQ/s320/100_2511.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5527205334420342306" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZt8JpwWpWTYf2FXs80LoO_nkowDnxEr-bW9wazUzT3Rp9wEdEkQkZCy7_6PveOgXrHkoBiLTQreITjcurWes6fgnyTB3RLFToRvYmw_W4_rk09yLPYTxgLDWv5zSYOr018jFKztheCtQ/s1600/100_2509.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZt8JpwWpWTYf2FXs80LoO_nkowDnxEr-bW9wazUzT3Rp9wEdEkQkZCy7_6PveOgXrHkoBiLTQreITjcurWes6fgnyTB3RLFToRvYmw_W4_rk09yLPYTxgLDWv5zSYOr018jFKztheCtQ/s320/100_2509.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5527205330288711618" /></a>Dawn Melodyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13033405619621192632noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432198724291471456.post-51524494866870577042010-10-07T13:37:00.000-07:002010-10-07T13:47:46.944-07:00LUGGAGEIdeas for packaging...<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3kPyBgYNj9EoWyv4MmNYLJqQOXPP4gB6N8ET4t1e6M6uOuC1LDhyoDWOjUJLSW2VlIJ4Y8VDqdWdxVafcLTO4LSIVA58aTeXK0NjK1wVoKCO9pMoU3iPrk-8LnwJxPWWkv9fmR7O7TiI/s1600/100_2504.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3kPyBgYNj9EoWyv4MmNYLJqQOXPP4gB6N8ET4t1e6M6uOuC1LDhyoDWOjUJLSW2VlIJ4Y8VDqdWdxVafcLTO4LSIVA58aTeXK0NjK1wVoKCO9pMoU3iPrk-8LnwJxPWWkv9fmR7O7TiI/s320/100_2504.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5525408132820117458" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoTXnc-Oyw9gl2SEvyqQ2-_UBzTK62OAfRPsM69QjVlv5U4zeU28sYfCihP9nz-rnmNaTzXUzc7PDzgoDAZrJrUJ04EJ2SUuQbuZFTtJq6SEywbIIMMiGq705VGoU5Lh_B4u7inzRSemw/s1600/100_2507.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoTXnc-Oyw9gl2SEvyqQ2-_UBzTK62OAfRPsM69QjVlv5U4zeU28sYfCihP9nz-rnmNaTzXUzc7PDzgoDAZrJrUJ04EJ2SUuQbuZFTtJq6SEywbIIMMiGq705VGoU5Lh_B4u7inzRSemw/s320/100_2507.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5525408130902211874" /></a><br />My calico briefcase....<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIIJ4qDY6DW84LOa3-T-vAZr7WYiIwNFt0bTttociDyb9C9YcynQsUCEA9cWPubKo2uhWGSj1rLEUktQfwRBatb3PHLpz2jiGSZq2a-zA45eW8leS_rfGSFMwe88m_vPTED7-29Pn9AYM/s1600/100_2498.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIIJ4qDY6DW84LOa3-T-vAZr7WYiIwNFt0bTttociDyb9C9YcynQsUCEA9cWPubKo2uhWGSj1rLEUktQfwRBatb3PHLpz2jiGSZq2a-zA45eW8leS_rfGSFMwe88m_vPTED7-29Pn9AYM/s320/100_2498.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5525408128204437666" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghO3N5-2BXr3ODHb-AOAPOSitcnyID0-KHtJreJ5fTKp9tJtcwc4n1IYrAxVJcvBAtoxCqo260gWiw2cTRXyTNfWAgJv9cvZaRNADIg8Vs4Ht3rditP0iu-0ghgxwLNZGu_ZDEyJ4-85s/s1600/100_2497.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghO3N5-2BXr3ODHb-AOAPOSitcnyID0-KHtJreJ5fTKp9tJtcwc4n1IYrAxVJcvBAtoxCqo260gWiw2cTRXyTNfWAgJv9cvZaRNADIg8Vs4Ht3rditP0iu-0ghgxwLNZGu_ZDEyJ4-85s/s320/100_2497.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5525408120210286594" /></a><br />So I decided to make luggage for this project and so have created a briefcase (toile)! Amazing...never thought I would ever get it done. Now I am working on the final, professionally finished case. I am also trying to get my branding sorted I think I'm going to call my brand "Enchant".<br />So much to do and not very much time at all. Although I haven't got too stressed out yet I'm finding it difficult to do my dissertation stuff and this project and work at urban! My time managerment really isn't great and I don't know what to do to improve it. I've tried lists, but they're no good. I need to come up with a solution quick because at the moment I'm behind with my dissertation work and its getting to me!<br />I hope I'll sort myself out soon....Dawn Melodyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13033405619621192632noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432198724291471456.post-13800598102171143192010-09-30T05:18:00.000-07:002010-09-30T05:27:54.508-07:00And 3rd year begans...My third and final year has kicked off! And its harcore work from the start...at the moment we are working om extended research practices and have a live brief. It's exciting because we've never had a live brief before and its such a good opportunity. We had a crit on Tuesday and I felt it was really productive, Sue gave us honest and creative critism which I much appreciated. <br />I've decided to make luggage for this brief and I'm really looking forward to the final outcome! I've never made luggage or even bags before so it should be a hoot.<br />I'm really excited about this year, but so scared. THIS IS IT! In 9 months time we will be released into the big, wide, world. I feel like this year is already going to fast and it won't be long until its all over...so I'd better get a move on!Dawn Melodyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13033405619621192632noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432198724291471456.post-58170053085281700382010-09-16T12:59:00.000-07:002010-09-16T13:10:26.903-07:00THIRD YEAR...AAAHHHHH!So 3rd year is upon us and I am terrified! I feel like because I haven't stuck anything down and I'm working mostly in my blog that I have nothing to show for this project, but after talking to some other fashion girls they put my mind at ease. <br />I think I'll be fine once we've got back inot it properly...well I hope. I know what I want to do, its all in my head its just executing it onto paper.<br /><br />To be honest I go through the same motions every year..worried, happy, stressed, relieved!<br /><br />I'll be fineDawn Melodyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13033405619621192632noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432198724291471456.post-57808528809722248452010-08-31T11:30:00.000-07:002010-08-31T11:37:20.356-07:00Great NewsSo the other day while I was working (urban outfitters) I served a buyer from HO and started chatting to her about how I wanted to do an intership there once I graduate to gain some more experience. Anyway, she informed me that she too did an internship with HO and after 3 months was offered the job! She told me that if they have the vacancy they would rather take on someone who's been doing it then just any old person. I was so pleased to hear this and very excited about what the future may bring, obviously the work position cannot be guaranteed but this is still good news!Dawn Melodyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13033405619621192632noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432198724291471456.post-63258795510206530222010-08-31T11:25:00.000-07:002010-08-31T11:27:13.926-07:00DETOX DAY 9Enough said.....<br /><br /><br /><br />P.s I had a chocolate bar and felt awful, but it really wasn't that nice or worth it.

I don't feel as grumpy as I did yesterday and I was actually quite excited about the thought of porridge this morning, I can't say I feel much different though.

A woman who morphs from innocence to struggles, and back to innocence. From a state of purity, when there is no good and bad, to sophistication, which comes with seduction, greed, debauchery amongst all other evils that dominate the world. On the verge of decadence she struggles, for individuality, for virtue, for her own soul. In the end amidst all chaos, she unites with peace of mind, living with a sober fact that she is just one of them, and she can’t hide. That is her IDENTITY, whether she likes it or not." - thank you Trendland..amazing website!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWdmtzBXL3GP6kJ1bh813jH5yI4-RvGkDj220OwmgPqYHMmSciEJuZpcStRY83ia0dpZt9jVhkk4Qv6gA35i0Ww4ibrQFFKPZOX2fABQIWO-DIvtLuuhKS32koqkfEiqg_CokL6Xr6ntI/s1600/Identity-by-BlanQ-4.jpg"><img style="display:block;
