30 Day Snap.. Number 21&22+23.. Whoops!!

I have a valid reason for missing the last

three days of 30 Day Snaps

Whoops, sorry guys!

So my story begins on Wednesday the 17th

I was contacted by a Production Company to be a Runner

for the night! At the Basement Jaxx Live Streamed Gig at 

Somerset House in London!

What an experience!

Loved it :)

This was on Sunday! Then the day before this I was approached by another company

By a lovely gentleman recommending me, who Directed 

Naughty Boy ft. Sam Smith - La La La song!

 So therefore on Monday I arrived in Hackney

to work as a Runner again for a music video.

For the band Temples

They were really awesome and cool guys!

Check out their music!

So that is why I have been away for a while, and why I am slightly exhausted.

However it was all great fun and thank you to all the people who contacted/recommended/Iworkedwith!

These past few days I have worked with the nicest people, even after a 12 hour stint we were all still laughing and enjoying it!

And a huge thank you to Daniel who escorted me everywhere to make sure I was safe!  

My Last Snap!

My Work Wear.

I'm lucky as my work place have a 

smart casual dress code.

I regularly wear this outfit as 

it's summer(y) and keeps me warm.

 Flower top - Warehouse

White Jumper - River Island

Trousers - Marks and Spencer

 I don't wear a necklace usually because of the collar

I think it would be too much!

 

 NailsInc - My review and the colour can be found (here)

I also wear this outfit at the weekend with a beige pair of Primark Chino's.

I highly recommend, if you wear any patterned top

you do not wear heavy makeup

you will look like a clown.

My makeup today was as basic as it comes,

Foundation

Powder

Eye Liner

Brow Liner

Mascara

and

Lip stick. 

Oh and Blush.

Hope you had a good day at work!

It's flown by!

It's crazy how much happens in a year!

By the end of July after seeing Coldplay in June, me and my boyfriend worked at the London Olympic Games.

It was so many different things, at times it was exhausting, then it would be fun the next, and brought out so many different emotions.

Daniel (boyfriend) was working with the Games makers, all the people dressed like this - 

 

Whereas I worked for G4S in the security side of things dressed like this - 

  

I know what your thinking!

How attractive!!!

I was based at the O2 Arena and Daniel was at Wimbledon.

 I was working 12 hour shifts on the hottest week of the year, outside with barely any shelter.

After a few days in the sun I was placed on night shifts.

I have never been so exhausted! I struggled to sleep during the day and it felt like jet lag without the amazing holiday to go with it! 

However it was an experience I am never going to forget

and I have met some lovely people from doing it!

August 2012 brought moving day to my household as i moved from the North to the South of England!

Most of my family live in the South and seeing as I have been a hardened Northern for 20 years i thought it was about time I lived a bit closer to home!

I also finally threw together the Coldplay amateur video which you can see here -

I'm applying for University late!

I swear everything I do is a spur of the moment.

Last year I wasn't going to apply for Beauty NVQ3

And in the last week I decided why not!

It is mid May and I have applied to UCAS to hopefully attend 

UCA in Farnham this September coming.

This is crazy!

But I get such a high of last moment things.

I am applying for 

BA (Hons) Digital Film and Screen Arts

As I will be a Mature Student (at 22!!)

Hardly old am I

I have to create a portfolio of work

This has to include the obvious

Photography

Drawing

Anything arty really 

and

I'm pulling together 

A short film

Just to try and show off ;)

I already have the idea of it and because of certain places I will be visiting

 i.e. Coldplay concert

 in the next month it will fit in perfectly

 It is about a couple that fall in love 

At the moment I am listening

to music that I think will fit

as my film will not hold any audio

the music has to make it!!

I already have-

Hans Zimmer

Sigur Ros

Cinematic Orchestra

or

Ludoivico Einaudi

as choices!

And another thing is I can't edit the music either as I do not know how?!

So it has to be perfect!

Have a look at some of my work and let me know what you think!

I don't know what the title should be...

I'm currently studying at college and thank god I didn't drop out last year...

College text me month's ago blabbing on about working at the Olympic's

Opportunity for students who will be 18 by 1/7/12.... blah .... blah... before 16:30 today ... blah

I sort of thought, whatever I want to enjoy my break off from waxing people's sweaty underarm's and ignored it.

Weeks later

Our tutor was reading out the 'weekly updates' basically telling us the canteen is now serving more overpriced disguisting shit, that I end up eating anyway!

So she started talking about Bridging the Gap and explaining how some people out of the other group went along to a presentation regarding working at the Olympics 2012.

Bridging the Gap is basically a fantastic organisation to get young people into the working industry specifically the Security business.

They pay for our training etc.. and it is only aimed at young adults still studying.

Then comes the exciting part, (my mind was on the usual mute setting) when I heard 'You can earn up to £4,300' 

WHAT IN THE WHAT!!!!!

£4,300 that's like insane money to me!

 But to possibly be earning this 

for a max of 6 weeks work!

So I and 3 others have been through most of the training to become Door Supervisor's and are awaiting to hear back from our interview's

 ... pretty exciting :D 

This is an opportunity of a LIFETIME

If only there were more companies with a passion for young people and helping them achieve goals they never thought possible.

I've always wanted to make a difference to the world and hopefully with this experience 

it will boost my future career (whatever this may be) and make me achieve my dreams.
