great yarmouth is one hi-roller

I spent ages trying to win tickets on various arcade games to win a gem set worth 110 tickets. I managed to get one ticket. and that was just left in a machine by someone else. it was very soul destroying, especially as a little girl walked past me as I was leaving, bearing a tapeworm of tickets. so embarrassing.

... glad I got my scanner back. this is me turning 20. woah. ALSO my main news, 'The Oracle' is now a facebook page! ha I don't know why I did that. I am expecting serious networking potential and a deal with whsmiths any minute now.

august's Oracle is sort of on the way, here is some of my latest photography experimentation which will probably be the kind of thing in it.

harry potter doesn't even die

soooo I spent £6.50 on sitting still for about 6 hours, but at least I never have to go see a new hp film I guess. after that Annie and I went past a graveyard and I took some photos. I've looked at lots of cool photography and artists recently and I'm very inspired, and sad that I'm not very cool. oh well at least I'm not Ginny.

boss

I really like this photo. I'm trying out some new stuff in my photography (probably really pretentious and awful I'm sure) and I'm havin' fun. can't wait to get my film scanner back, I've taken loads of weird pictures of my sister dressed up, and now I get to go back to the big city (ha) and take weird photos of my friends. also, there was an explosion in boston. whaaaaaat.

palindromes

actually started doing some project work for uni yesterday, I bought some really cheap coloured pencils that included lots of garish colours and got inspired to do some valid work. the scanner stopped working so I just took a rubbish photo of my sketchbook here, soz. I have to do two sketchbooks, so I should probably get on with it eh? also my mother kindly bought me 'soul & spirit' magazine for me - IT'S BRILLIANT.

something fun

these are hilarious, making some more today. also I'm going to make some The Oracle t shirts. YES.

diagnosis murder

it's not on today, which is annoying, so i shall have to content myself by watching Legally Blonde and making a start on august's 'The Oracle'. got a cover sorted, just working on some layout ideas. the theme is going to be horrorscopes. I've taken some funny pictures of my sister dressed up as the oracle, I'll put them up when i get back to nor-widge and get my film scanner back (finally). to tide you over here is my lovely housemate oracled up:

also when I get back to norwich I can start printing last month's zine, which will be exciting. hopefully I'll get a nice photo of some freshly done ones, gonna print em in sets of 10. not sure what I'll do with them yet, ideas so far are making a time capsule, shoot them into space, tuck them into crisp multipacks...

Cult

July's zine is done, on the theme of cults (what else). Mainly drawings/paintings inside but there's a bit of photography. Will get to printing it soon when I can get some ink and paper..
