by GeeI missed a phone call this morning, but ended up getting a voice message from my uni telling me that I had won an award and that I had to be at the Grad Show to recieve it
Admittedly I was working on a few projects and didnt get the message untill about half an hour before the exhibition opening… wich meant I was indeed still in my pajamas (because lets face it… every photo retouch artist who works mostly from home spends most of their time in their pajamas – even if in this case I wasn’t at home… but at nuovogue – wich feels like a second home any way… pyjamas are the main uniform for people like us!)
Thinking to myself ”wait… Uni SA has a sense of humor?” (I’m not the worlds most amazing student) I called apon good friend Moira to come to the rescue and bring me in some nice clothes to wear and some makeup.
I made it to the opening wearing a nice floral number and the lovely lady on the phone indeed wasnt lying to me, I had won the Deborah Paauwe Award for Significant Achievement by a Student Majoring in Photography.
I feel pretty awesome today.
Thanks guys!
