My thoughts on life, design, kitty cats and other such nonsense. Nothing too serious.

Catchup

Wow, I’ve been soo busy updating my site that I have completely neglected my blog. Not cool, Pablo, not cool at all.

Anyway, I’ve got myself a spare 15 minutes so I thought I’d cobble together a quick roundup on my activities over the past *checks date of last post*, sheesh SIX WEEKS. Flippin’ ‘eck.

Let’s start at the beginning.

At the beginning of July I exhibited my Final Year Major Project (SlopeScope) at New Designers in London at the Business Design Centre, Islington.

ANY budding final year design students should DEFINITELY consider going, worth the expense, trust me!

It was fantastic. Not only did I get to meet a load of high fliers in the industry, see my competition and generally have an exciting time but I also won a prize!

CyberDuck graciously awarded me their Associate prize which consisted of a pretty certificate, a 3 month internship and A FREAKIN’ IPAD! Unfortunately the internship was not suitable and I decided to turn it down.

Regardless, I am ditching my plans to move to Manchester and will be moving to The Big Smoke on the 31st of August ready for action! Got a job? I need one.

Some people may think I’d be mad to consider moving to such an expensive city without a job lined up. Maybe I am, but that’s not stopping me; London is where the action is and I’m going to be a significant part of that. In the interim while I apply for jobs, attend interviews and generally try and find work I shall be keeping up my freelance (old and new).

Meanwhile I am currently back in Dundee packing up my life into cardboard boxes, working on Shortbread and in talks with SKK Lighting about some future work.

The future’s bright. Excitement.
