Good Friday

That litterally sums up my day. Last Night was good fun catching up with friends, eating giant burgers and chips and re-discovering my talent at pool (apprarently its not a sport in the olympics, gutted!). Feed Night also turned out to be pretty interesting, Paul Scott from Make Architects www.makearchitects.com gave a talk and presentation about the work he and his company does. Some of it close to home, any of you guys heard of The Cube www.thecubeiscoming.com that is being built right by The Mailbox, 5 years into production its still not finished but paul showed us a few of his designs of the finished product (click image gallery on link) and it looks pretty amazing compared to the typical glass modernised buildings. Paul also talked about the work they did for the University of Nottingham Jubilee Campus:
www.makearchitects.com/#/projects/0058/ for those of you that go there or have been to visit may recognise it. What i liked most about Paul's talk, was the fact that the company had there own sort of style, like each project they had done was different but they all kind of looked the same, if you get what i mean! I also liked the fact that they looked at ways of creating buildings that would benefit the planet and wouldnt add to global warming, basically being more efficient. For those of you guys that didn't go you missed out it was a good insight and showed you many more career paths that you could take, meaning if you studied fashion or graphic design, it doesnt mean that becoming a archutechure is out of the picture. Anyway have a look at the links, their work is awesome! Also if you want to know about the next Feed nights Follow their blog: www.thisisfeed.blogspot.com
Back to Good Friday, after going the gosta green (which i have to admit is a great night for students) me and sian headed back to hers and it was cup of tea! and then straight to bed. We had the most deserved lie in, we've just broke up from college you see! we didn't wake up till half 12 today and refused to get out of bed unless it was for tea or food! so the time is now 6:30pm and we've only just decided to get showered and ready! Not sure what our plans are for later, but seeing as we're both broke, i'm sure we won't be dining at the ritz tonight!


enjoy the rest of you day!
