I haven't really stopped yet but thats kind of how I roll anyway, I get super bored if I don't have something to do so I will make up lists of things that need to be done in the day. Thats another reason I hate sleeping is because I will wake up in the night and be like ''I need to do that right now'' or '' Genius idea but where is my notebook'', I can't say I remember the last time when I slept a whole night through.
Anyway home has been filled with doing a few of my favourite things including all the best people. First up an afternoon trip to The Hambledon, I have mentioned The Hambledon before but it is honestly one of my favourite places to go, the shop stocks everything that makes me haps..cards, florals, beauty products, socks, clothes, trainers and home-ware. Whenever I go there I never want to leave and conjure up visions of how my house will look when I'm a baller, I took a few snaps of my favourite bits on this visit, every time I go the displays change but always look top notch...
Some major inspiration above and below for both home decor and also to incorporate with some of my design work. Honestly I see things all the time and I'm like '' PATTERN, PATTERN, PATTERN''. I'm pretty sure I will turn into a pattern soon!
I have also been keeping in routine with a work schedule, I need organisation else I will be throwing paint about, cake tins galore, indesign going crazy, basically love a good structure so on my lunch breaks I have been working on some type hype, heres yesterdays...I'm not too sure on the colours at the moment, I might have a bit more of a play about with them later in the week...any thoughts?!
And of course whilst being home I got to see my playa pals. Residing in Shirley McDonalds with Mark and getting caught up in a kids party, we were apparently the only people in there not in the party so I did try and join in with the Happy Birthday sing along though by my standards there should always be some sort of rap involved in a birthday celebration. Liz and I popped to the pub to catch up over a couple of ciders, this used to be our weekly meeting which we called ''DA'' (that stands for dickheads anonymous) where we used to basically confess all the mischief and stupid things we had been up to during the week, we took it pretty seriously and I spent most of the evenings last year with my hand up going ''Hello, I'm Becki and I'm a dickhead because I fell over/ sent this drunk text/ thought I was really funny when I got up on the stage in the middle of the club and demanded a rap off..'' yeah you get the jist. I also got the chance to show all my family my work as they have only seen it via a couple of I-phone messages, bless my Grandad who took a business card just incase he fell over. Can't beat a good Grandad quote! So home was lovely and filled with friends, family, breaks with Bryony, tea at Sarah and Petes and just generally good vibes. Back to London for a playa now with a hundred pattern ideas and a bake off in mind for this evening...
I have listened to a lot of music recently, mainly because I'm either sat at my desk or on my travels somewhere, I don't actually know what I would do without a soundsystem banger to get me through the day, there have been some treats on the shuffle this week, I went back to The Streets album, then Dilla, Bonobo, Kendrick Lamar but I'll roll with this one for my soundtrack of the day as it makes me super haps listening and you can catch up with pattern a day here www.onepatterneveryday.tumblr.com whilst its playing playasss!!
