Oops.

I really was trying to not buy anything when I went into Kingston today, I really was. I got really nervous about this interview I have tomorrow (yes, another one, I feel like I have everything coming out of my ears), I suddenly didn't have any smart shoes for some reason... so naturally I bought two pairs. I only went to get my graduation photographs printed, in regard to Jessops, their photo-printing services have gone downhill, was very annoyed with the touchscreen.

This is what I wore to the interview I had this morning; I think it went quite well and I'm feeling quite optimistic, but the job-hunt continues anyway.

Cardigan: H&M
T-Shirt: H&M
Belt: eBay
Skirt: Dorothy Perkins
Leggings: New Look
Shoes: TOMS
So here are the fancy shoes that I picked up; the pink ones are from H&M and the brown ones are from New Look:


I've been searching for a pair like these for ages, and the fact that they were half-price was nice. I really promise I will stop spending though, the UK is a rip-off and I'm going to Hong Kong on Monday, thus, I am an idiot.
I also got this cute t-shirt from Uniqlo, which I enjoy because it has polar bears on it. I definitely prefer Uniqlo in Hong Kong, although this was only £4.99.


I'm very excited for Hong Kong, particularly after today has already proven to be so hectic and I have to go out again for the Malden Fortnight presentation evening. I'm looking forward to falling off the radar a bit, but we're staying in one of my cousin's houses so I'm sadly kind of keeping my fingers crossed that there will be Wi-Fi. A 'jobseeker' like me can't exactly afford to go completely without communication, particularly due to how cool the company I have an interview with tomorrow is... eep! I'm far too over-excited.

A Night at the Oscars.

I finished taking the photos for tonights party just after midnight, it was really fun to play observer for the night, it's very strange being with such a large gathering of people, not knowing anyone but taking their photo anyway.
I enjoyed myself, maybe I didn't enjoy the 6 hours stood up, but it was a fun experience that I wouldn't mind doing again..

In the end it turned out that I didn't need to bring my studio-lights as there was too much interference and I was working too quickly anyway. Annoyingly, I messed up the modelling bulbs on the journey down - well, one on the journey down, I dropped the working one on the floor when I got home. I'm so angry with myself. I think the only circumstances I will do this again is if I'm in the area. I don't like having broken everything, especially when it's through no fault of anyones but my own. Luckily the damage is easily fixed and the flash tubes are safe.

I think I'll be able to use my external flash for the shoot I have on Monday if the replacements don't arrive by then - I was so angry, I ordered them the second I got through the door, it was hard not to let it play on my mind all evening.

But anyway, watching people dance and making them feel like celebrities isn't a bad way to spend an evening, especially when it's a paid job. I'm quite proud of myself really.
Aperture is still processing the 740 photos I took tonight, that's the next day and a half filled up then, I guess.
I think once it's done I'm going to go to bed and catch up with X Factor - it's barely halfway through yet :(
I have another busy day tomorrow, it's my mum's birthday so we're going out to lunch and after that I have to get myself back down to Portsmouth, hopefully without breaking anything else important and in time for tomorrow night's X Factor.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.....

Woah.

At the moment, I look like this;

I'm so tired, but I can't bring myself to go to bed.

I have some nice photos to show you, brb.
