fame
* .... i wanna live forver...* etc.
or maybe not, but its exposure. a friend of mine at college let me know there was a pic of my stuff at that exhibition last month (art, jewellery and cards) in the irish deaf society news magazine which is sent to all members. nice. all exposure is good. i didnt know there'd be inclusion in that mag. im pretty pleased cos well.... it's an 'occurrence' and hell, you never do know.
i also have something up my sleeve but i'll have to wait and see how that pans out before i say anything. it's also to do with crafts though;)
im organising coffees and get-togethers left right and centre. it gets kind of neglected that kind of thing. and i think one particular friendship needs a bit of a kick up the arse, class is also no longer a place for anything more than a 5 min chat. i may well OD on starbucks!
(or cookies... i ate 8 gingerbread men today, theyre too tasty, with nutmet and cinnamon and mixe d spices (no ginger apparently!)....)
i completely forgot about this over the weekend until one of my tutors (who wasnt in on fri) came up for a hug. I left a letter about it on the noticeboard you see. i told the story i read in the metro paper the day before. a petite middle aged woman and a tall 20 something man were on the DART (train) sat facing each other on the 8am train. the woman asks the guy to move his feet as he is spreading out onto hers and her feet were cramped. that turns into an arguement and gets heated. so the guy stands up and spreads out his arms and says 'i dont want to argue. do you want a hug?' to everyones amazement she stands up to hug him and people around them clap. so he says 'does anyone else want a hug?' and a man takes him up on his offer, so from there quite a few people hugged the person beside them.
a nice way to start the day eh!
and then this morning i saw anther letter saying if you tried to offer free hugs in most cities youd be decapitated, haha.
i was saying im not the most huggy person, but a few days before i saw that a guy in my class was going around offering free hugs (hes known for doing it occasionally) and i was put out because i was painting at the time so i was too messy and didnt get a hug!
