New Friend.

So Jake, James, Edel & myself finally found a new flat. It's gorgeous & today we adopted a new member into our family. Meet Harrington :

I haven't met him yet but I'm in love <3

Amanda Grogan

Last week I had the opportunity to photograph a few pieces from the graduate collection of a new Irish designer Amanda Grogan while it was being recorded by TV3 for a feature on Xposé (a beauty and fashion programme in Ireland).  Amanda recently graduated from the National College of Art & Design and has already been catapulted into the fashion spotlight after winning the prestigious Italian Mittel Moda competition.  Her collection called 'Cut, Sealed, Cauterized' was inspired by crime scene installations by the American artist Barry Le Va. 














Her work is every thing I drool over and she is truly living the dream. I'm sure she's going to do great things and with her first showing at Milan Fashion week next week she's one to watch.
Good luck Amanda
-Footage of the collection and an interview with the designer will be aired on tv3s 'Xposé' in the coming week.

Tranny chic-c'est fantastique

The night that Alex moved into his new flat, Ciarán took it upon himself to dress up in Alexs tranniest Berlin vintage buys. This is the result and a contributing factor to why I think he's fucking gas.

Rofling

My mam just asked me if my tattoos were real and i said they were biro and she believed me. Idjoot.
Big picture vomit on the way in the next hour ...

Routine Death

This video is like watching me and my friends lives through a looking glass.
Step 1: Wake up & Eat
Step 2: Go out and cause havoc and drink too much
Step 3: Pay for it with a whoppaaar hangover

Seriously the look on their faces at the end is all too familiar.

stop running away from your problems.

It's an incredibly overwhelming feeling of confusion and doubt that I'm feeling right now. After school I took a year out because I hated school with every bone in my body and I need a break to pace myself for the rest of my life.  So I just spent the last year in art college which kind of made me hate the only thing I love and has made me doubt myself more than any woman should.

 I don't know if now's the time to go back, if I should defer it for the year, if I should never go back to that college, or if simply, college isn't for me.  I'm starting to think it's the latter, but I want to learn and I want to learn so badly.  I know I have so much to give when in the right setting but I don't think college is the place for me, and without many connections I'm just going to end up stuck in a complete rut in some job in retail for the rest of the foreseeable future.  I want more than that for myself, and I know my family want me to go back to college but I really don't see where I've studied for the last year as the right place for me.

AAAH MAN, I THINK I NEED ANOTHER YEAR OUT.
At least I know now that friends wise, I'm the happiest I've ever been. I have people I love and people who I (hope!) love me back.  I smile so much more and I know I've people I can talk to and people that I've got a real connection with and I'm not ready to leave them yet.

St.Petersburg

I went to Russia in January with college & here are some photos. I've never been in a more beautiful place. Someday I'd love to live there.
(Disclaimer*:As these are old, anyone who knows me will have probably seen them already. To those that have and are like 'Oh bleh, we don't want to see them again. Don't you take any other photos?':YOU CANNOT FATHOM THE IMMENSITY OF THE FUCK I DO NOT GIVE). I'll post new shit when I actually do something interesting & can be arsed putting up pics. I think I'm bailing on going to Electric Picnic because festivals are expensive and I think myself and Edel are just going to organize a group of us to get together and go camping or something.
