Ugh. I feel like scratching my throat out. Have drunken so much water today, as it seems to be the only thing that helps at all. Freezing water, when it's already cold. Meh. Why do I always get sick around the holiday time? Hopefully I'm well enough to work tomorrow - I've had a taste of being in the money, and I like it! Plus I've just realised that I need to get my arse into gear, and buy lots of stuff.
First on my list to buy is a digital camera. Since I have no idea what I should buy, I figure I'll work as much as I can for the length of the holidays, and in that time do some research into what would be best. Anyone got any pointers as to where I should look? Another thing I might think about getting is a computer, or a laptop. A laptop would be lovely, and that means that I could have all my architectural crap on it. But we might be getting a new computer sometimes soon. So. Also, on computers, I need to look at getting a scanner, and either Photoshop, or Paintshop.
I've also realised that I need to be more expressive in terms of creativity. It's not good enough to simple do what assignments I have for Uni - I need to be experimenting, and doing projects that have nothing to do with any Uni work. So this holidays, I'm aiming to start painting, drawing, whatever. One of my first steps is to go to the paint centre, and see if I can get one of those books that they use for wallpaper samples. I've got a thing for wallpaper, and I'm going to play with it for a bit.
