I'm a little frustrated about my latest adventure in eye shadow making. I made three last night and because i wasn't intending on making a batch, i ended up making three perfect colours but i didn't take down to recipe. I was really buggering about with the slip - adhesion ratio and for my earth / neutrals, i think i've managed to work out the right amount of oxide to the colour because the end result in the formula seems to be working really well. I've got the formula down okay, so i guess thats the main thing. I'm really happy with the pigmentation of the shadow, it blends really well and the shimmer stays on the blend. So far so good. I just have to see how it lasts without  primer.
So many people moan on and on about creasing with eye shadows but everyone should own a good eye primer. Its one of those things every girl should know about.  Anyway, i'm working on making my own.

Labels next, still need to ship some jars over and work on some stuff for the Met.

I had a feeling and a bit of a change of heart about the course today. I'm not sure that i really want to go back to college, just to waste a year. I know i said that before but i don't and i certainly don't want to be sitting on my arse for the next year so...
This morning, i thought about it and typed up graphic design jobs in my area. Now, they are as rare as hen's teeth around here and i was certain i'd have to move to Glasgow once i'd completed my degree. Well i found one this morning, didn't i? I'm going to go for it. They are looking for an experienced designer but if you don't try, you'll never know, will you?
The pay in a week is more than i'm used to getting in a month. There are so many things i need to pay for and i just don't have the money right now. I'm kind of sick of being a student but at the same time... you know what i mean. Everyone gets to go through that dilemma after a few years. I swore i wouldn't do this and i'd get my degree but who knows?
We'll see. I won't lose anything so i might as well.

I'm watching QVC. Surely my pathetic existence has reached an all time low? Fuck. I deserve some luck!
