Sorry for not updating~ Happy New Year!

Journal Entry: Wed Jan 2, 2008, 4:47 AM
News

I'm sorry I haven't updated in a while, I've been meaning to!
Well, what has been happening to me?
Our assistant manager left the shop I was working in so I've been roated on for more hours at work. I did my Product Knowledge Foundation Certificate, but am still waiting to hear if I passed or not! I've been trying to set up a wine blog/website, as well as a portfolio website for myself.
I graduated in October, so will be probably putting some photos into my scrap book at least!
I've discovered Facebook (at last).
I've been taking photos, and working on the old ones I've still been meaning to upload since August. I've also been designing and submitting t-shirt designs to Split Reason, and one of them is up for voting :D
Also been reading Customers_Suck and MockTheStupid far too much on Live Journal >.> Been playing on Neopets too much as well <.<
My networking/connection settings have been seriously screwed up by Windows, so I've been stealing my fella's computer whilst he is at work, teehee.
So I appologise for not responding to everyone's kind comments and +favs as soon as I would have liked too :(

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone, though! I hope you all had a good one!
(I went went to a small gethering at a friend's house, where we made cocktails and played Buzz!2 until midnight :D )

Projects



I've had an idea for a new project, an exposure type project! I want you all to send me a link to one of your most FAVE images on deviantart! It would be great if it wasn't a very well known deviant, but if your fave pic is very well known, then so be it! For example, my contribution will be







I want to make a deviation showing what everyone's favorite images are, to give exposure to the people telling me, and to the people whose deviation is being added!

It's going to hopefully end up looking like this.






I'm also designing more t-shirts for split reason! But I will be updating with more photos as soon as I can! I'll post as soon as m,y websites are done, too.

Egyptian Prints For Sale!





Anyone want to buy one? :D
