I went for an interview yesterday for a work placement at a shoe makers in North East London, and I'm starting in June :) I have a year out from uni to work in industry, then I go back for the last year all refreshed and full of skills. After I graduate I will complete a traditional apprenticeship, and off I go! Everyday I can feel myself inching closer to my shoemaking dreams!

The downside is, I still have to do the current project, which is insanely boring. I have design shoes for MCM - which are a luxury bag brand that used to be cool in the 80s, but isn't now. They don't seem to know what they want really. Apparently they are getting big again in Korea and New York, but I wouldn't know about that, being stuck here in the cold!

So yeah, apart from that, everything is going swimmingly. Here is a picture of me in incredible pain.

I just won some Vivienne Westwood shoes on eBay too, all is well :) xxx
