I AM BACK BABY!


Hello World,


I AM BACK!!



This is my first post for a matter of months, I am aware!! It is defiantly taking some time to get used to it again, I just typed a whole blog and was just about to press send and somehow lost it all so this is my second attempt. A lot has happened in the time I have been MIA which I am about to fill you in on!



After working at The Tony Ireland Group for a bit over 12 months I have decided to resign. Don’t get me wrong, they are an amazing company to work for and I have learnt so much from the people that are there. But, I have decided to pursue my dream in marketing by going to University. It would be too hard to look after my customer’s full time and study so one had to give. It was a very tough thing to do but I know that in time it will all pay off.



I will hopefully be starting a degree in New Media Design in the mid-semester intake which starts late July. The only thing I am waiting on is that acceptance email! I have been doing all of the social media marketing for the family business Feed 2 Go which is proving to be such an exciting thing. Especially to see the page suddenly go from 30 likers to 70 in just over a week! (check it out and see what you think.)



Anyway, I know this blog is probably a little boring. Forgive me; I need a bit of practice again! Hopefully if I get accepted by James Cook University I will have a lot of nice graphics for you.



Before I go I would just like to give a little mention to The Great Moscow Circus. EVERYONE should go and check it out while they are in town. I went last Sunday and it was amazing whether you are 10 or 100 years old you will get a laugh. The sexpo is also in town this weekend and I am very interested to check this out. This is a very different event compared to what Townsville is use to but I think it is a great thing. Call me naive but I am interested to see how they can fill a whole expo at the Entertainment Centre with SEX! For those of you who aren’t planning on going stay tuned to next week’s post. I will tell you all about it!



Until next time lovelies,

I have defiantly neglected my blog this weekend, haven't I?
Hello every, this week I have started my new job which is very enjoyable but very long days! When im not at work I am making rosary beads and jewelry for the markets this Friday!

On another note I hope that everyone watched the royal wedding during the week, Kates dress was amazing! It was such a magical thing especially when William whispered to her that she look beautiful!

Well I'm off to keep studying my product knowledge for work!
Have a wonderful weekend all!

a million things in one.

This week had been extremely busy (i seem to be saying this a lot lately) As of Wednesday i have finished my "old" job and i now have about eight days until i start my new super exciting job! I have been shopping for corporate wear although, in my home town that is kind of difficult! This week i have so many orders and things to do which means the easter holiday has come at a perfect time! But i have still found enough time to get my hair done today, my inspiration for my hair colour is Rihanna i will try and upload a picture in my next post.

I am so excited for Thursday i am sitting down and practicing making HUGE earrings which i can't wait to show you all, i am looking to start making some really unique and different jewelry now that i have a little experience up my belt, all i need now is some time!

On another note my boyfriend and sisters boyfriend got the keys to their "new" renter home, this is the first time they have moved out and they are so excited and so nervous although, as they are two boys moving in together i as the girlfriend have so many things to organize and find!
Thats about it for this week i have been doing some research on better material for my blog like a better camera (as i rarely have relevant or good quality pictures) and new laptop because this one doesn't work unless it is connected to the charger so my blog will only improve in the upcoming weeks!

oh my, before i forget:

TO ALL MY FOLLOWERS IN TOWNSVILLE:
A friend and i will be selling our jewelry at a stall at the Strand Markets on the 6th of May! This is our first real selling experience so please come out and support if you can! 
Be there and bring cash!

Career Woman

Well Well, how are we all this fine weekend? 
I hope that everyone is enjoying a very lazy sunday.
Me you ask? I am stressed i start my new job in a bit over two weeks (which i am so excited  about) and i have to much to do! Last night i took a lot of my jewelry out to my local hockey grounds and i now have almost a gazillion orders, which i am so excited about making! i spent all last night searching for beads so now i just have to wait for them to come. Thank you to everyone at THA who put an order in with me i will be working my but off to get them done in the next two weeks.


I am currently trying to clean up my awfully messy room and car before tomorrow so i can start the weekend off fresh but i seem to be distracted by blogging and shopping online. Speaking of which if anyone knows of any great online fashion shops that sell corporate ware please comment below or send me an email! 


I'd best get back to cleaning, hope you all have a wonderful week.

Back To Reality.

Hello Lovelies,
This is going to be a huge post as i have a lot of new news to tell everyone!

Firstly, i am starting with great news. Today at 11:00am i had an interview at Tony Ireland and got myself a traineeship to someday become a sales person, which is my dream that for anyone who follows me on Twitter would know that i am working in a warehouse at the moment and don't like it. This job is such a great opportunity accept the hours are very long so it is going to be a stressful year with my craft and the job but i am up for the challenge.

I also have to say thank you thank you thank you to all of my new followers and customers i am working hard balancing everything plus work so please be patient! Lately, i have been doing a lot of research on different body types and what jewelry suits them best so if you have an outfit that you just can not find the right piece of jewelry for email me a picture and i will make you up something!

I have been working a lot on rosary beads and peace sign earings! i have manged to find heaps of diffrent corsses and middle peaaces which is exciting! Last night a made a beautiful turqouise rosary bead set which i will add i picture in the bottom of the post, feel free to comment and let me know what you think!

Sorry to everyone who tried to view my blog when it was down i had a big promblem with spammers (who are lame) but i am back onlie again and working on getting more security so it doesn't happen again! At the conclusion of this post i would like to say thank you again to everyone who has followed me and please keep getting the word out.



 (sorry about the quality of the pictures)
