float on high

I wandered lonely as a cloud/ that floats on high o'er vale and hills/ clouds float by the window on high o'er rooftops and chimneys as I look from the kitchen and contemplate a day more grounded.

the post from the past

With cherry blossoms on the trees the spring air breathes itself into my steps as hopes of a summer soon to come bring a brighter side to every day. And as college winds down I have a few moments to spare for finally publishing the backlog of posts began long back with the best of intent but abandoned to the futility of my impossible aspirations of achievement. There are never enough hours in a day; a fact stated in the extreme yet one that unfortunately rings true daily

What we had, some of this precious time ago, was the learning experience of a knitwear internship personified in puppet form. Felting was fun in a forwards and backwards and forwards and backwards sort of way.

pouring life into a cup

When you're working twelve hour days in the studio and you're getting tired but still go to work ten hour days in the cafe and your favourite friend there tells you they're leaving and this is the last shift you will have together you can't help but feel sad and so make a macchiato to express your bleary heart and hope that soon the coffee might perk you up a little and you can pretend that it's not so bad and things won't be so terrible without him there but then you know it's not true and he really will be gone and it will never be the same and you will never be as happy as you were and remembering the good times is better left until another time.

A week in the studio drawing an array of root vegetables. Printing and preparing a screen. One tank of beetroot soup in the fridge, a turnip shaped friend on the desk. Thankings to Chloe, who has wandering eyes everywhere.

At the persistent behest of a friend the blog has begun once more
