It went really really well. Really well!
The manufacturer loooves my stuff and thinks I'm incredibly talented... so now its just a matter of finishing off my business plan, finessing my designs a little and saving a boatload to pay for it!LBM - June 2014 DFD Goal: June 2016 (28th Bday!)

Geesus.. Its way too early. The things I do for money to get out of debt... ugh.
On another topic, finished off a book, so thats another thing off the list.. and have managed to stop myself from buying a funky pair of shoes...

Ugh, money frustrates me. Have been doing a breakeven analysis on my design company and it isn't going to work out until I either have a tonne of extra money to put in, or can bring my costs down. I'm thinking it might be better to spend two years at design school learning how to pattern and sample make.. that'll save me 20,000-30,000 per year... might make sense thenLBM - June 2014 DFD Goal: June 2016 (28th Bday!)

Sounds like a plan Lauren, there's no point trying to start up a business if it's financial foundations are a bit shaky.The size of a glory hole in an open pit should not be greater than the cross-section of the haul trucks that dump into it. Otherwise, you are bound to lose a truck, sooner or later. Source: Sergio Cha

Wow.. haven't been on here for a while. Thinking any major debt busting will come with my tax return.. because I'm not really getting anywhere presently.
Have an exam tomorrow... eeek! .. but have my birthday party to look forward on Sunday, seeing as I'm working Monday. Hope everyone is going well!LBM - June 2014 DFD Goal: June 2016 (28th Bday!)

Helllooooo out there! Gosh, haven't been too active on this for a while!
Well I've set direct payments up on my cards so they will stay stable, then any extra I can pay off will bring the total down. Have been learning piano, and getting kind of okay at it, and everything else in my life seems to be playing out quite well. Starting to get my things together for fashion schools applications... fingers crossed when the time comes I'll have offers from all over the placeLBM - June 2014 DFD Goal: June 2016 (28th Bday!)
