Casual Position: Cocktail Taster.
I do apologise for the lack of fashion posts! I have been busy lately and don't really have the chance to take decent photographs. I am thinking of investing in a top quality camera for such purposes, but first, so many clothes I want to buy! I have been hunting down sites and clothing items that tickle my fancy, in hope I purchase them shortly. Possibly I will be back in the swing of the fashion ways within the next month or so, for now I am settling back into uni and with my birthday coming up soon it is my prime time to shop till I drop!
Oh, talk about a news flash! Update on work status; so for those who attended Future Music Festival on Saturday (resulting in lack of staff at the nightclub), they are banned from work for two weeks. So, as punishment of attending a festival due to lack of staff, they will not let us work, resulting in lack of staff at work? It's okay though, it'll give me a small break from work, I will get more time to start drawing, and it was so worth it!
Interesting story of the day; due to a new Cocktail list at Glasshouse/Su Casa, we had a cocktail training session at the venue tonight. Not knowing this was also a test tasting session, I drove there. I wasn't going to let my car keys get between me and free alcohol! So, I had my free cocktails and shots, and came up with the plan to get one of my friends to pick up my mum, drop her off to Glasshouse so she could drive my car and myself back home. Luckily it was a solid plan and it worked out, because, there was no chance of me driving home. This goes to show that in terms of Responsible Service of Alcohol, always make sure you have a plan, or a plan B, which is advertised at all clubs frequently. It is important that you have these things sorted out; either get someone to pick you up, call a taxi (it is a smart idea to have a phone on you for serious communication issues, not just to text your best friend sitting next to you in the club), organise a designated driver or friend to pick you up. The point is, don't drink and drive; people underestimate the danger it prevails, especially for those around them.
Not meaning to be the party pooper, just reinforcing the important factors of drinking, but onto the funner aspects, if you are local and have no plans for Saturday night, you can still hit up Su Casa! We have a new cocktail list, all cocktails are $8, with old cocktail mixes being $5 until re run out. Check out Su Casa on Facebook for more information. If you not from around here, just check it out anyway, see what the go is in my hometown at the moment. It couldn't hurt.
So! Hopefully, soon, I present you with more photographs. In terms of my previous post, I have a promising chance of getting the free photoshoot! So thank you loads for those that checked out the link, and for those that haven't, just chuck us a quick like here! I hope you all had a great Tuesday, enjoy the rest of your week!

Delirious.
Hello! So once again Sunday night was a success! The Grand Hotel was packed and the DJ were pumping! The ladies arrived all dolled up which their hair perfect and highest heels strapped on, until the entire space became a giant mosh pit. The ladies stumbled out of the cluster of sweating fans with make up where it's not suppose to be, hair in all sorts of directions and broken shoes. Now that's what I call a classy night out! It really was a good site to see, just being able to stand there and watch everyone party their little hearts out! Overall, the entire weekend was a success, and although I did work all weekend, it really was back to work today; I wouldn't exactly call being on the "other" side of the bar hard work, it is really just an enjoyable time.
So! Today, I lived my typical Monday, recovering from a weekends work at the clubs at the quiet un air-conditioned "bliss" of Hungry Jacks in the muggy weather to the Air conditioned tension of the patrons as Collegians. Their has been tension amongst Managers and patrons as of late, which mixes up the atmosphere at work, which isn't too bad, as it is usually a drag.
I didn't have the best sleep after a fun weekend's worth of work though; when I work a lot I often drive myself into a tiresome state of still thinking I'm at work when I'm clearly at home, sleeping. This resulted in continuously waking up last night thinking I was still serving drinks at the bar, and falling back asleep into dreams of work. It's funny because, I can hear the people and everything, I just always wonder who has stupidly turned the lights off when I'm trying to work. I never realise I am home though, I think to myself "Well I can't see what I'm doing, I'm tired, and for some reason there are no bottles of spirits right here where they should be so I'm just going to lie down and sleep". I then wake up, feeling drained from "working" all night, instead of sleeping. It gets to the stage sometimes that I start sleep walking, thinking I am at work, but that happens when I reach deep states of deliriousness.
Onto another topic, I obviously do not have any fashion statements I am announcing, so I decided to upload another one of my drawings. This has got to be one of my favourites by far, it was requested by a friend but I couldn't part with it. I get attached to my drawings, and hate to see them go. I have only ever given away two drawings, to people close to me. The Phoenix is drawn with Graphite Pencils on A2 paper. Anyway, I have a busy day tomorrow, so I better get some zzz's!
