Yesterday in university we worked on Adobe Illustrator. It was good fun, but after 3 hours staring the computer screen the world around you felt blurry. After lunch we had to carry on with this, despite I’m loving it my eyes could not stand it. 8.20-14.30 behind the computer, working is too much for me. How the IT people do it?
The program itself is good fun. I can make all kind of clothes with it and put different patterns in my design etc. At the beginning it was a bit confusing but if I manage to get hand of it I really did enjoy it. May be I add here the examples I made later, when I get them from my university´s computer. I do not have usb, because I forgot it to Scotland, but as I found out of my extremely smart boyfriend I can use my phone as usb..:)
After that I went back to the flat and ate some pasta. Cheap and fast.
In the evening I decided to go to look for the place where tomorrow I meant to have trials for badminton team. Knowing me and my intuitions not to follow guidelines I decided to take a “shortcut" and get lost. I travelled around Herning about over an hour before I by accident found a place. SO the way back I fallowed the gridlines and it took me 20min. Then small talk with Chris and bedtime :)
Today early start in university again. This time we went for a field trip. Fun, fun fun.
We went to State of Art Scandinavian showroom. It is a men´s clothing brand, who does causal wear and also have 2 special additions for a bit younger market, which is inspired by race in Italy. Have look : http://www.stateofart.com/
I do not like the brand style that much, but the story they have and the marketing with their propose is very attractive.
The 2 people in showroom were very good sales people. They know a lot and explain the feeling etc very well. Cool.
On the way back the bus driver decided to make a small wrong turn and we ended up in a very small countryside road going zik-zak up and down the hill. It was little bit scary as the road was very narrow and there is no chance that 2 cars could get past each other. Luckily we did not meet any cars.
The countryside looks really like South Estonia- Small hills, cows, fields, forest. The main difference was that the houses looked very pretty and renovated.
After we got back we went for trend lab. I think this is my favourite place from now on. It has all the fashion forecasting books for next seasons etc. Teko students can go there for free. Yeee
About 14.00 I discovered I haven´t eaten anything except from a banana, so I went to flat. Ate another banana (we decided with Chris we don´t eat normal food until we move back together) and went to bed. Half an hour later Chris texted me. I didn´t answer, cause I was a SLEEP. He decided it is time to me to wake up so he skyped:) Actually it was nice to talk to him. Our rotas do not match at all. He starts the work around the time I finish uni and I go to uni when he sleeps. :(
At 18.30 I went for my trial. I was so nervous. I really cannot remember the last time I have been so nervous. The stomach is crazy, hand shaking etc. I arrived in the place 30 min before. I decided to walk around the hall for 10 min and then went in.
Everything was SUPER. I got in the team and the Danish people are very nice. (I heard stories that they are closed and do not want to know anything about anyone) I guess it is just different with badminton people then.
SO the training started at 19.30 and lasted till 21.30. I was dead. I mean I still am. It was so hard. After first 30 min I thought I am dying. It was good fun though. The coach said that yesI my endurance is less than other girls, but it is ok, as my technique is good, which matters. Let’s train and you will get your fitness back as well.
I am looking forward for Thursday, not looking forward for tomorrow and sour legs.
Anyway the weather decided to change after the training. So I cycled with heavy rain for 20 min. You could image how I looked like when I arrived back to flat. Not so dry.
I need to buy a better lamp, because the one is bought from "Tiger"( the cheapest place u get all weird things) is not very useful as I don´t see anything. It would be OK on main streets, but I take couple of side streets with no lighting. The other problem is I am bit worried that one of the roads goes between forest so is it really ok to cycle there alone? On the other hand I haven´t heard anyone saying that Herning is dangerous or etc.
Well, I will decide on this matter later. Now, I need to go to sleep.
