Step one: Lie on your human slave's lap.
Step two: Remain there until human starts feeling slightly trapped and hot.
Step three: Look up disconsolately when they try to get up from the chair.
Step four: Let your human place you delicately on the cushion. Meow tragically if they don't handle you with the care better dispensed to a valuable antique.
Step five: Immediately fall asleep. Increase your weight by relaxing completely, so that if they try to lift you, you'll weigh more than three large history books.
Step six: Enjoy. Snoring loudly is encouraged.
Hello!
After a crazy long time, I finally decided to write something on this blog. I've been extremely busy with a couple of projects that are not my jewelry line, for a change. :)
First of all, we're getting married in less than a month!!! That alone should explain why you haven't seen me around! We're excitedly finishing the last things from our wedding to-do list: talking with the florist, learning to dance bolero and looking for some decorations for our site.
We'll be getting married at the Villa Caletas Hotel, in Costa Rica's Central Pacific coast. Here's a picture of the gorgeous site. :)
On the other hand, I've been working on my thesis... which has been very time consuming but also a very satisfyingexperience. I got to reacquaint myself with my own dress-making skills! I didn't study fashion design (I studied fine arts with an emphasis in graphic design), but nevertheless my thesis is on dress as a form of art. I have a profound love for fashion and everything related to it (illustration, jewelry, theory and history of fashion), so it was a very personal choice to work with such a subject.
My thesis is due in June, so I have lots and lots of work ahead of me. The project consists of two parts: first, a theoretical study of the relationship of art and fashion, fashion as a form of communication and the relationship between fashion and women. The practical part of this thesis is an exploration of the concept of artistic dress through three dresses that have oversized, constrictive and impractical proportions. Right now I've almost finished one of these dresses and the other two are still in progress.
And last but not least... we have a cat! Please welcome little miss Lana, a tiny but astoundingly cute Himalayan cat. She's been with us for about two months now. She loves to keep us company and to closely supervise any activity, especially those related to my thesis (yikes!). She's very energetic and playful, likes to talk a lot and is just a sweetheart. A little bit after we got her, we learned that Lana is affected with feline leukemia virus. This was probably contracted through her mom and dad, and has caused her to be quite susceptible to infections and the like. This whole situation made us extremely sad, and so I urge all cat owners to have your kitties vaccinated against this disease. Lana is under close supervision from her vet and we hope that with lots of loving care she will live with us for many years. :)
