Me Me Me Me! It's all about me!!!!!

So you don't even know who i am!, I'm sub consciously making you further around my blog for hints and tips about me, I thought why not tiptoe around and just tell you.






So, I'm Lee. 
I'm a student. I also have 2 jobs. 
I study Advertising at UCLAN. (Central Lancashire)


I'm a Bar Supervisor at the student bar. 
I'm also a mentor on the University run project Flying start.



I'm a creative person but not as creative as I want to be. I want to put this to use since I have a degree in it.  

One main thing that i'm proud of is this:


It's a Wedding Dress strung from the ceiling, made from source-able material. //paper.
It's on oxy-moron for a 21st centenary wedding. Back in the 60's weddings would like many years.
Till death do us part as they say. Now weddings last around 6 month,
 So i incorporated this into one piece. In used yellow pages for adverts and also wedding adverts.

Within the yellow pages i looked at family guidance counselling and marriage counselling. Within the wedding adverts i looked at happiness and all things wedding like.

I then did a photo-shoot around campus, and placed some images on the floor along with some dead rose petals. To look at the dress from a distance you wouldn't understand. From looking at the dress up close the penny would drop.

I'm on Twitter. YAY!

I like watching Films.

Over the past few months, I've noticed myself watching a few films. A few more than i would actually watch.
Some have been brilliant, some have been poor. But I'm going to share my highlights with you.

First off and most recent, - The Help (2011)


What a touching story, set back in the 60's about the civil rights for African/American families. Not having such right's as using toilets in the same place where white people use them. It's a grand storyline and based on the best seller. Within the movie, there are some parts that contradict itself, but overall it's a really good do! I'd recommend.

Next The Notebook (2004)

WOW. I cried at this. Again such a sad story line, and also set back in the day when chivalry deffinately wasn't dead. But from the moment to film started i was hooked. It's a classic love story but with gripping edges. It's one of them films to watch whilst snuggling up to someone.

Tower Heist 2011.


It say's it all from the screenshot of Eddie Murphy. Such a comical film could of been done a little better toward someparts. but again worth a watch!

So...just a few things!

DONT FORGET - Keep an eye out for the tache's and don't forget to donate to help raise money and awareness of prostate cancer! #movemeber http://uk.movember.com/

that image there, - yeah i did that. 

This weekend, I went to London, it opened my eye's abit about how life works.
I mean, it's a massive city that host's residence and workplaces for somewhat 60 million people. But how things work, such as the ins and outs of the place. 

My friend Phil said the some people went around London picking up coppers and 5p's over 5 years. - AND BECAME MILLIONAIRES i can't find any information about this online, but i do believe that could of happened! because if you think about it, you disregard the odd 1p/2p coins and if everyone in London did that... well i wouldn't argue with that. #easylife

Also, Can we address that London host's home to an M&M store. realistically you wouldn't think that a chocolate based sweet would be serious money. But after being in the store for about an hour and realising a normal bag of m&m's in the corner shop cost's about 60p and that the same sized bag or maybe 2 costs £20!

The best thing about the shop, EVERYTHING IS OTT. i mean don't get me wrong, it's really good and opens your eyes a bit, but i can't really see the store taking in much revenue. (even one of the assistants didn't know,) have a look at some of the images. (PS to give you a bit of an insight, 4 floors, a beanie hat cost's £15, an m&m statue costs £950, it host home to the different (Lifesize) M&Ms doing th abbey road scene)

So it's been near enough a month!

It's been a month more or less since i posted last, Opps. I'll get the gist of things soon.

But i've got something brilliant to share with you, Keep this in ur head whilst looking through... We are amateurs!
So, last night me n a few friends went around Preston, looking for somewhere pitch black so we could do some light paintings. Can we just address this was so hard, we found one place without much light, The park.
here's what we did.


















i've left a load out because we get an extension on my brief, and i don't want people using my ideas ;) cus' im sneaky like that,.
