BUSY-NESS

I've had a hectic few weeks, trust meh! Sometimes I'd forget what I'd been up to if it wasn't for my phonecam - so here is a quick pictoral diary....

Started off in Milan, Where I was shooting a lookbook (wow - i can get paid to put clothes...on people?!) it was bloody exhausting but tons o fun, and obviously I can't show you the shots, but heres the crew/models. We had the lovely Reggie Yates and Kesh there too...LDN vibes all round...






Milan is dry but there is graffiti everywhere!!!! Theres a lotta sloppy shit, but I loved this...


Got back to London, hung out with the boys, went to Plasic People, best club in London at the moment...




I've started my Masters degree in Cultural Studies at Goldsmiths - Its DOPE more on this later - but what it does mean is a lotta nights spent alone reading...


I got tired of reading and decided to clean every nook of my house. I pulled this hair and dirt ball outta the shower plug. That ain't my hair! Promptly decided to move out...


Saw this boy at the bus stop on the way to school. Didn't know whether to laugh or cry at that shirt...


Supreme Sticker Scrabble...


I never see Amazing G anymore! Had to record the moment when she graced Udox - pun unintended...


I got a tattoo by Bert Krak, who did my rose in January. I love that dude! They were all down for the London Tattoo Convention. If you are in NY check out his studio, Memphis Tattoo, in Brooklyn.


The more I look at my tattoo, the scarier it is. I know some people associate it with the Freemasons and conspiracy theories and shit and for a second, this worried me. But fuck em, I know why I had it done and thats all that matters...(and Mom, if you are reading this, I don't wanna hear a SINGLE word about it, okaaaay?)


Went back to Wolverhampton because its my little sister Shakira's, birthday. This is the local art gallery thats had a mega revamp and it now so amazing! Go check it out if you are in the Midlands area.


I bought loadsa shit for my sisters. This isn't the sister whose birthday it is, this is the youngest one Ashanti (my Mom obviously named my sisters Shakira and Ashanti waaaay before them drybone popstars came into fame...)


Stole this book from the library


Went to a shit car boot sale


Saw this funny woman who said she "wished her own hair was like this wig" and told me and my cousin, "isn't your hair lovely"....


Went to see my Nan as I ain't seen her for ages...


Why do all Nans houses look the same???


And that brings us up to speed. I'm tired, I need a massage and a hair appointment. My brain hurts from all the reading I have to do for class tomorrow (Bodies Without Organs by Gilles Deleuze, what IS THIS TEXT ALL ABOUT?!?!!?!?!?!) I'm also moving out my house tomorrow, I dont have anywhere to live so call me if you wanna offer your sofa until I find the perfect flat...

WAH3 Update....All finished and laying it out now....I'll be calling my helpers for stapling duty this week!!!
