Thoughts are the name of the game, really...

Just realised I should probably introduce myself... and also having second thoughts on the blog name, not sure if I am singling myself out in the fashion world, I am not the patriotic type, I am a welsh speaker, although I live right on the border, 30mins from Chester, Cheshire & about an hour away from Manchester, to put myself on the map, in a tiny village called Froncysyllte, yes I can say it, I challenge you! I call nearby Wrexham my town.

Did not realise I was truly Welsh until I have been going away to Uni Open days, & this UK skills competition, which I will also later explain, where I was meeting people, and introducing myself as being from North Wales, and people picture it all sheep & fields, which it can be, as I live in the country i suppose, although a main road is only a walk away, and the bright lights of town life beckon.

Finding this blogging demanding already, I call it 'this' as though still unsure of what I am getting into. although I have been a follower of such blogs as; Fashion-Toast written by ex stylist Rumi Neely, & The Satorialist, amongst others for a while now. Just going to write what comes to my head, a lot as I think more than I speak.

Feeling the need to explain my whole being, as if anyone cares. Wanted more of a social life this year, here I am blogging, the second within... 10mins? no good with time

I have this strange way of speaking, and I can feel it in my writng, of taking the mick out of fashion and dissing what I do, as though I don't really care, I felt it in my Uni interview, although I got the place. Maybe it's beacause im a male in fashion from a small town in Wales, but it is my calling, 'I know my future has to be within fashion', as my UCAS personal statement said.

First Post - Thoughts On Blogging

Well...... here I am sitting at the screen, obviously listening to Florence & the machine, whom I just got tickets 2 go see! Ironically, listening to 'Girl with one eye', kinda sick, as my cat, came in yesterday morning with his left eye pouring with blood, after a suspected cat fight, after much drama on my part, he is recovering after his trip to the vets, who said he had a hole in one of his three layers of eyes? very interesting I thought.

More to the point of blogging, I am unsure how to start, perhaps I will just procrastinate a little longer, I always do that! sort of planning out my blog in my head, before I've even started.
The thing is... I am about to finish college next week, and I'm a little scared that my exciting escapades in fashion will end with that, and I will lose it over the summer hols. althouh I should, I mean will, be in some form of University, doing some sort of fashion course next yr, I will explain of the drama later. You don't know me yet :D
I should have blogged about my adventures across the two years of my National Diploma in Fashion & clothing. But we must not dwell on, wudda, shudda, cudda, as All Saints famously said, put it, over & over again! damn them!

So I will now start my blogging journey, I say. Thinking I will probably dig out my old col stuff, and telling you of what I've been up to over my years. Check back for future development,
gimme time! I have a show to plan atm! & models are a droppin' like flies at the last minute!
Speak soon, who ever is out there...............
