11th March 2013 - Just a short note

Just to let you know that I am still alive, posting and working on college stuff. College is really taking over now. Exams around first and second week in May but still, I have decided to start gathering materials. I also got another assignment to hand in and another three to work on, two of them haven't been defined yet.
I have finally made up my mind and will do a 2000 word report on "Artificial Intelligence" for one of the assignments - explaining it, where we find it modern society and what we can expect will happen within the next years. I found some interesting material on the Gartner website. I might pick up some ideas from movies, such as "I, Robot", "Minority Report" and "Total Recall". Might find some good stuff.

I have also decided to take Friday, 15th March off. I will go to the library early and I have agreed to help a student from one of the year above me to give an interview on adult education. The topic personally interests me and I am happy to help. It will also get me out of the library for an hour or so. I hope my answers will be of help.

I went to IKEA yesterday and bought a few bits. I got myself a plastic container with a separator you can take out, to store my fabrics. IKEA has some lovely new prints with roses (picture hopefully to follow soon), so I got myself a squaremeter of that. Looking forward to my parcel with all my sewing stuff, cutter and hot-glue gun. Last week, I bought a book on paper crafts and I got a few ideas I would like to realise during summer and for that I need a hot-glue gun. Thanks to my mum for going shopping for me.

At this point, I would like to dedicate a few words to my friends, Marco, Michael and Simone:

Leute, noch einmal vielen Dank dafür, dass ihr meinen Eltern ausgeholfen habt. Mag sein, dass einige das für selbstverständlich halten, jedoch finde ich es super von euch, dass ihr geholfen habt, den Keller leer zu räumen. Michi, tut mir Leid wegen deiner Hand, ich hoffe, der Schnitt ist am Verheilen. Wüsste nicht, was ich ohne euch täte.

Aerlingus has flights on offer for summer, so I am looking at holidays for June. Might be able to get something for around €200.

Now, I will check a few sewing pages. I have this crazy idea of sewing myself a dress, a red dress ...
