So I am still very aware of my goals. At this stage I am focused on creating and developing marketable skills doing what I love.

It is also a great chance to try lots of new things and explore my different interests as I have limited fixed commitments.

So my photography class is going well. I am taking photos and spending about 10 hours a week practising and developing my skills. I feel like I am finally coming to understand my camera. Great feeling!!

I have written an article for an Australian not for profit magazine on Shopping Secrets which they loved! I am now on their database of future writers.

I have contacted several different adverts looking for make up artists and left my details with them. So thats a step in the right direction, I still need to do more but baby steps.

I am applying for a volunteer position at a large upcoming fashion show to help with behind the scenes marketing and other backstage work, like hair, make up and dressing models.

So all in all, the little steps are starting to add up to a beautiful bigger picture.
