    Hello All!!! :D

    Feeling pretty good today, had a massive night the other night so was curled up in bed all day yesterday... not one of my most shining moments :S

    Well, have found a fashion design degree in Melbourne at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology or RMIT, and they have exchange programs with both the schools I want to go to in New York! So while I still need to clear my debts before I move, I won't need to be figuring out funding of $30,000 a year. Very DFW if I do say so myself :)

    Been designing most of the weekend, what is everyone else up to?

    Wow! I think I like the third one best! I'd love to do something like that but I'm not creative enough (tried it as I have an idea of a dress I want to wear to my friends wedding, but it looked lop-sided, and not like a dress at all! :rotfl:) Must learn to draw basic body shapes, then I can maybe get on with the dress side of things!

    I've jumped over from SAID thread - another diary to add to my growing list! :D
