Happy New Years

 Sorry I have been away for so long, as for usual things came up all at once that couldn't be avoided..

I have completed my studies at the start of this month  I am now officially a qualified fashion designer and technician. I received my certificate and academic record just last week I got full credits I really don't know how I survived until this point its still very surreal to me that my studies are officially over I still have no idea what I am going to be doing in the future let alone next year...

I had my interview with the arts academy in November and I can honestly say I am horrible at  answering interview questions... they liked my work very much they were fascinated by some of the pieces I had done but unfortunately I didn't get in.... I am okay about it I just wish they would tell you what you did wrong so you know how you could improve.. Ill definitely try again next year at least this time round I know what to expect during the interview.

during December I worked at retail store with B a guy friend I may have mentioned at one point or another. I can honestly say if I was to ever date a boy again it would most likely be him. he is literally the only boy I trust outside my immediate family. he is my best Friend we are always in constant contact with one another always striving to make the other laugh and we get along really well is what I am trying to say. I can see the possibility of us dating at one point or another in the future....

Christmas was intriguing My mum and I went dress shopping for Christmas day while we were doing that I found out I am actually now a size 8 AU/UK (US 6) instead of a 10AU/UK (US 8). my mum got really worried about it she kept mentioning it to all my relatives so I mostly spent my Christmas day reassuring my family that I am not on a diet or anorexic or over stressed/worked etc... the  most interesting thing about that day was hearing various members of my family sharing their thoughts on EDs and body image. I also found out one of my aunty is/was anorexic which didn't surprise me much other than that Christmas was enjoyable time even with all those questions flying around the dinner table.

As for new years eve I will be spending it with B for the most part and with my family for the other part.  which is truly is a good ending to a year full of ups and downs. That is pretty much all I have to say so I will take this opportunity before I go out to wish you all a happy new year~!!   stay safe and most immortally have fun where ever you are~!! lots of love Anna <3 see you all in the new year xx

Sorry Girls Going on a 6 week Hiatus

Hi girls, 

I'm sorry to say but for the next six weeks I won’t be on blogger at all, this is not something I wanted to do to you girls but I really do have to concentrate on one thing only at this time which is completing my Uni work to the best of my ability's.

(Start of Uni/school work rant, skip if you wish)

My deadlines are really stupid and twisted I have to have all my theory work (3.5 x 1200 word essays <.<) completed over the next four weeks. My practical work needs to be completed by November 22nd (day of fashion parade to be exact) at the latest (the real due date being 16th November). On top of all that I have exams and still have to turn up to classes that for some really stupid reasons are still running during my exams who the hell decided that? This is my final year of study, thank god :] 

Besides all that I have to write two more essays at 500 words each for my application to do Costume Design at the Arts Academy I may have mention to you girls ages ago..  update on the Arts Academy application I sent in last month, they accepted it :]. I currently have an interview the week after my exams so excited about it :D.

(end of Uni/School work rant)

I'm happy to announce that I am officially 60kg/132.27 lbs I am so close to my October goal of weighing less than 60kg/132.27 lbs by the start of November. I have went from 64kg down to 60kg in just over a month :] I'm quite happy with myself as you can see xD. I also officially went from a size 12au/10us/12uk/ to a 10au/8us/10uk in dresses/pants and not too sure about tops yet but still rather happy with myself :]

I will be making some posts up to post while I am away, so if you have any questions or suggestions about what those should be please don't hesitate to tell me because at this point my head is pretty much packed full of fashion info and that's about it. I literately have no ideas what to write about so please give me some ideas ^__^

That is all I really have to tell you I shall see you around the start of December hopefully with good news in regards to Uni and my application *fingers crossed*,

                                                                                        love always, Anna <3

Drifting Far Away

I can't seem to concentrate today, I feel like I'm drifting far away... I attempted to do the work we were set to do in class today but really couldn't focus much on what we were doing in so De and myself packed up early not much just 15minutes before the end of class. I tried to my homework  when I got home but made way to many mistakes so Ill have to redo it tomorrow...

I'm beginning to suspect one of my uni friends has an ed she is tiny as hell she weighs way less than 30kg/66.13lbs... she told our group randomly last week that she needs to lose weight the other girls tried to tell her otherwise but she brushed it off and said it was for health reasons which is bull if she lost any more weight she would be nothing.There really is nothing anyone can do to change her views of herself our group has tried I just hope it doesn't end in the emergency ward... I suspect she thinking the same about me as well due to some things she said and asked me in private these last two weeks...

kind of amused

I was sick last week so I didn't have the energy to go on here and make a post for you guys.

Today was an exhausting day I've never felt so tired in my life but it was a lovely day I enjoyed catching up with the girls.. I wasn't at uni most of last week so I missed a bunch of things but I think I'm up to speed with almost everything. which I thank my close freind De for :], she kept me up to speed with everything I missed last week so all I have to finish off is a portfolio for one of my lectures. I had around 600cals today and that's really there is to say about today :]

I find it amusing that someone out there has created a facebook account with the same name as this blog xD. I just want to say that's she's not me encase your wondering. I don't mind that she created an account with this name its just I want to make it clear we are two different people that's all[same goes for all the other facebook accounts/groups/pages/likes and any other website sharing this name]. I do have a fb account but that's under my real name, I wont give that away due to privacy issues but I do have an email account for this blog if you ever want to ask a question or talk :] which is ana_pandora@hotmail.com.au feel free to message me  sometime.

I will be making a body of posts for you guys in order to keep this blog afloat while I'm dealing with work and other things in my life.

Lots of Love,
                     Anna<3

@QraZee: Sorry for the late reply, its good to meet another lover of rain ^__^, male friends are cool but female friends are easier to talk to about girl stuff xD

a little bit busy

Sorry I haven't been posting recently, I'm just a tad bit caught up in a lot things at the moment and don't really have the time to post as often as I once did.

 
I'm currently back at uni continuing my 2nd semester of fashion  design,  I'm in my 2nd year of study so its a bit hands on. The other second years and myself are still in the process of organising our fashion parade for the end of year. I don't know if I've mentioned it or not but our theme is "Punk Cabaret" (a combination of burlesque and punk) we have to design and construct 4 outfits which consists of one show stopper and 3 full outfits. On top of that we have to so a lot of organising which consists of fund raising, sorting out models, make up/hair, finding a place to have the parade. food/drinks, music/performers/lighting and staging/seating for the parade. We are about half way through sorting out most of these things we only have left music,catering, fund raising, models and make up/hair.

I'm also currently in the processes of applying to do costume design at one of two performing arts academy's in Australia which is keeping me on my toes. I have to construct a portfolio consisting of everything I've done over the last couple of years from garments to costumes to beading/jewellery pieces to millinery work and design processes I've gone through to create each piece. Along with two 500 word essays on why I would like to study costume design and the other one on my own opinion on costumes of a recent theatre production. If I get through all that I have to go in for a panel interview with two interviewers (I hate interviews <.<). I'm going up against at least 2000 other applicants there are only 10 places at most in this course >_< but it would be so much fun if they accept me :]

other than all this my ex girlfriend is giving me a lot of trouble at the moment but I wont go in to details all you really need to know is, she is not exactly mentally sound. Ill leave that conversation for another time because I don't have the time to go into detail about the whole relationship/break up but she has helped me to work out who my real friends are during all this bs and for that I am greatful for.

I have eaten about 500-600cals today worked most it off visiting my possible future career path today with my mate K. The art academy was holding an open day today so we both met up in the city and explored the canvas together, had a lot of fun the lectures and students are really nice and helpful ^__^.

That's pretty much everything, now to get back to my homework xD I just really wanted to let you know that I havent forgottern you guys I'm just a tad bit busy at the moment ill try and post at least once a week if not once every two weeks <3
 

 I hope you all had a good weekend~!!

               lots of love,
