Internationally renowned fashion designer (and fashion icon in his own right) Gert Johan Coetzee, is affording one would-be designer the chance of a lifetime: A chance to be “a top fashion designers apprentice” , a journey which starts with a 3-year bursary to study BA Fashion Design at the North West School of Design (Where Gert himself graduated from)
Happy Birthday to the guy who taught me how to rewire a toaster and put down roof tiles, who showed me there is nothing wrong with carrying your heart on your sleeve and that you should always do unto others what you would like them to do to you.
Hope you have an amazing day, Thanks for being a role model and a friend, we fight like cat and dog, but I know you always have my back…
Apart from being sick most of the week and weekend I also spent some time with two of my favourite people, Kirsten who came over to our place and gave our court yard a bit of a make-over and Kammy who was at her gran’s house (Rob’s mom) when we went over for Sunday lunch… I ended up doing and impromptu shoot Kammy which can be seen at www.mybutterflylens.blogspot.com have a great week all. . .
Like most people I have found myself aimlessly searching the Internet for something interesting to do (lets be honest that’s how half of you found this blog) Well the other day I came across a personality quiz: http://www.blogthings.com/whatsyourpersonalitytypequiz/
The Inspirer
You love being around people, and you are deeply committed to your friends.
You are also unconventional, irreverent, and unimpressed by authority.
Incredibly perceptive, you can usually sense if someone has hidden motives.
You use lots of colorful language and expressions. You’re quite the storyteller!
In love, you are quite the charmer. And you are definitely willing to risk your heart.
You often don’t follow through with your flirting or professed feelings. You break a lot of hearts.
At work, you are driven but not a workaholic. You just always seem to enjoy what you do.
You would make an excellent entrepreneur, politician, or journalist.
How you see yourself: compassionate, unselfish, and understanding
When other people don’t get you, they see you as: gushy, emotional, and unfocused
I was impressed at how they got that from just a handful of multiple choice questions (not even technically multiple as you just get two answers to choice from) so I thought I’d get Robin to answer the questions and see what it came up with, apparently Rob is:
You have a strong need to belong, and you very loyal.
A good listener, you excel at helping others in practical ways.
In your spare time, you enjoy engaging your senses through art, cooking, and music.
You find it easy to be devoted to one person… a partner who you do special things for.
In love, you express your emotions through actions.
Taking care of someone is how you love them. And you do it well!
At work, you do well in a structured environment. You complete tasks well and on time.
You would make a good interior designer, chef, or child psychologist.
How you see yourself: Competent, dependable, and detail oriented
When other people don’t get you, they see you as: Boring, dominant, and stuck in a rut
So I finally took the plunge and went from doing one-on-one kiddies photo shoots to birthdays.
My first Birthday party shoot took place this weekend when little Luke turned one 🙂 How poetic , a first for both of us 🙂
Like most 1 year olds he quickly grew tired of all the people “celebrating him” so I had my work cut out trying to coax a smile out of him
Here is an example of how it all turned out:
Feeling very fluy today and as a result I can’t think of a single sane thing to blog about except maybe Rob’s flu tea
(Chamomile and rooibos tea with freshly squeezed lemon juice and a dollop on honey), Only thing that seems to help, other than that I got’s nothing, chat again . . . Have a great Monday
