Today’s lesson….

You don’t fuck with a girls hair.

3 days until the (so far) biggest day of my life. I’m sleeping on checklists and threads, no joke. 

I finally had a fitting today, like seriously, I’m so busy with sewing, working, pole fitness and teaching these days that I was starting to believe I wouldn’t find a time for fitting where everyone could make it. No altering needed, I’m so fucking happy, no words. Except my own dress, haha…ironic.

So anyway, I was pretty much done with everything, just happy with myself to be ahead of schedule and had just the little things left like jewelry, hem and stuff but no… I found myself waking up in such positive mood Friday morning (I wonder why though, I actually woke up thinking there was an earthquake…it was my cat stretching) but anyway2, I tend to make quick decisions…altered by my mood that hour I decided to make my 6th income and made a 3 hour skirt with no measurements nor pattern. AND it actually fit my model. 
According to my checklist there’s not THAT much left… just the petticoat and some stuff.

I’m so nervous.

Break it down!!

I’m only playing soothing music these days. 

Why do I always laugh of this? And think of this video when I think “Noooohh”

Fack. I am so scared shitless right now. I just realized that my first EVER fashion show is in 8 days… yes, I said eight days. It’s not that I’m behind on schedule or anything, but you know. There are going to be people there for crying out loud. I hope no one trips. That’d be awkward. I hope I DON’T TRIP! I’m definitely going to trip. I’m throwing my heels out. What if someones boobs fall out? Wouldn’t that make the show explicit? I hope it wont be mine. 
Also…my hairdresser hasn’t added me on facebook yet and I don’t remember her name. I don’t want my models to have ugly hair. The 1950’s is the time for GOOD hair. And lovely updo’s and no nippleslips or tripping.  

Pray for me. Cross your fingers and please don’t tell me to break a leg. It’s not funny.

I didn’t think I’d have anything to say today being super tired after the day (and super bruised) but then I came across a short video clip and suddenly that changed.

First I want to post the video clip: 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKeLp5pCTgE

So Having worked with autistic people for a few years, I know how important positive publicity is. I’ve always loved my work and the people I work with, because to me these people are one of the most interesting people you find.
I keep the people, my work and this “syndrome” very close to my heart. 

When I watched the above clip, I smiled and I got a bit of goosebumps (sensitive me)…but I have to admit, after watching it I caught myself thinking

„but why is this so amazing?” „why make a bigger deal of this just because he’s autistic, if it had been a “normal” boy who mainly assisted the team they wouldn’t have published this.”  

But the truth is, this IS amazing. Autistic or not, this is a boy who nobody knew had any potential and he had NO time to prepare for this shot he got, but he MILKED it! And I must say, if the news would have more stories like this, we’d all be a tiny bit happier wouldn’t we?
Secondly I thought, even though this is spectacular, maybe I had this thought because I know this, I know autistic people are much more capable then they are given credit for. But that does not mean everyone else knows. And it is so crucial, that we spread the word and small clips like this. Because it gives us knowledge and spreads the positive image of autism, that sadly is still very unknown among people and because of that, people make their opinions on no ground or because „this one time I saw a kid with autism yell on the street”. 
Just remember, if someone is supposed to function in the society, we have to accept them and embrace them.
And just remember number 2, if you are curious or unsure, we live in the world of technology. Google it. Read. Because I can tell you, those people will blow your mind! 

And let’s not forget her… this is such an amazing story, everybody should watch her video if they haven’t already. http://carlysvoice.com/

Always have faith in people, we never know what they might be capable of. (And that goes for everyone)

The blabber is back to noodle eating.

Been playing in everyday since it got streamed, I love how randomized it is, no song is the same so most people should find something that suits them. 

Now I have to go clean with papercut chronicles II as my “background” sound.. 

Starting my day with THIS video…loveitsomuch

I did it. I made a blog. And I did it for a few reasons. 

Np: Dead Prez - Mind sex

1. I talk to myself a lot… like really a lot. (In my head)
2. I’m pretty bored right now (even tho’ I shouldn’t be.. got plenty to do)
3. I like FB and Twitter..but it’s kinda ?inhibit?, does that make sense? Anyway, It’s not controlling my talking to myself enough.
4. With all my studying these days, I’ve made myself pretty lonesome but I like talking.

Np: Marvin Gaye - Let’s get it on.

(I’m gonna interrupt my posts with Np’ings) 

So anyway, this semester has been not that far away from crazy… with work and everything on top of it, well it’s been stressed. But Fun! Even though the most stressed part is left I have a good feeling about this. So to get to the point, I’ve been sewing a lot (duh…* ) and even tho I don’t like chatter around me while doing it, I neeeeeeeeed music, to make it even more interesting, and so I can do a little dance at the same time.

But throughout this time I feel like I’ve reconnected with music. And I find myself playing the most random playlists, from underground hiphop to soul to healing mantras. Hah! 

Well, even though this time has been good (and stressed) I’m really looking forward till the end of schooldays (for now). I’m really excited to start sewing whatever I want whenever I want…and knitting, f*ck, I started knitting a wool sweater in august and I’m far away from finished.. I Never Has The Time.

I hope I can finish it before it really gets cold. It’s so cozy. 

Np: Mac Miller - Knock Knock

Ok… I’m good for now. 

Ending this with my messy manikin…she definitely does not have a good sense on what matches. But hey…we all have our own taste. 

Np: Nina Simone - Feeling good.
