Time's tide will smother you

Its been a while since I've posted! And for that I apologise, so I'm gonna have a talk here about recent happenings and thoughts and just give an insight into my world in the meantime ^-^

Weightloss
Recently I've been a man on a mission, a mission of weightloss.
Long story short, I had to go for a pill check at the doctors. The past year I've been in severe denial about my weight and blood pressure and have pulled every trick in the book not to see a doctor and just get my prescription on repeat without a check. My fear was they wouldn't give me my medication!

So I gave myself that kick up the arse I finally needed and went on a detox diet. Aim? Loose a stone in weight and reduce my blood pressure. I went on the 'detox' for 10 days (The Lemon Detox) and managed about 4 days before getting bored shitless and exisiting entirely on Weightwatchers Soups!

Results :
Original Weight - 15st 0lbs
End Weight - 13st 12lbs

Orginal BP - 177/78
End BP - 140/77

So after 10 days, I'd dropped over a stone and my BP went back to a normal healty pressure, no longer on heart attack territory hurrah! So I've been super happy with that :)

Work
I've been looking for work recently and have been pretty disheartned having been rejected for jobs. However finally I recieved a job offer from a fantastic Care Home in Braintree which I'm super excited to be starting! Also I had an interview at Morrissons, buuuuut that care home seems more fun :D

Bodymods
Thursday marked an incredibly sad day for me :( 
 
















Sadly my microdermal had to be taken out because it never settled ;3; Managed to pull the bloody thing out about 3 times and finally came to the conclusion that it would never settle gah!

On a positive note though, I will be attending London Tattoo Convention on Friday 23rd September :D
Managed to acquire to fundings to get my arm finished by Elson hurrah! Pictures and blog entry to follow shortly ^-^

Life
My life as well has been good recently and things are finally looking up future wise :)

I recently enquired with my doctor about possible scar treatment and we're looking at the path of cosmetic surgery which is quite scary, however I'm hoping something comes from it! I also dyed my fringe purple, fancied a change hehe :3


Josh and I are good as well :) It'll be a year and a half together this month ^-^  We've been spending a lot of time recently with his family, especially his brother Chris and his wife Karina. Last weekend was spent getting high (Haven't smoked weed in over a year so it was pretty weird!) watching tv, drinking and just generally having a laugh. However the best fun is spent with Josh playing games, watching movies and cooking yummy food :3 I really am the luckiest girl on the planet, I love and adore him to bits and I can't wait to go to Berlin with him next year :3














The pets are good as well ^_^ Momo is in season and she's spraying and shedding her fur everywhere, stinky thing! And my Gerbils are good too and being very cheeky like usual ^-^


All in all, things are good in the life of Paige! I'll be posting more eventually on my Youtube and on here :3

P.s Heres an updated picture of me :3

Wire Sculptures

It is difficult to photograph these wire sculptures, because a photo doesn't give you the third dimension. Nevertheless I wanted to post a few images here in order to give you a rough idea what these things look like.
I first time I saw wire sculptures was when I visited Milt Kahl and had lunch at his condo near SF. Those things blew me away, Milt Kahl drawings that take up space.
For years I thought, don't even bother to try something like this. But eventually I wondered, what would happen if I do these sculptures MY way.
Milt used soldering to connect pieces of wire, I just made knots to hold them together.
My first two pieces were a small horse and a cow. It got me excited enough to keep going and develop my style into something presentable.

Most of these photos were taken by Hans Bacher, he actually produced a left and right eye slide of the object, and with the help of a sort of a view master  they can still be viewed in 3D.
A lot of these sculptures were part of a charity exhibit at Disney quite a few years ago (my second exhibit at the studio, not the one Miss Audley saw.). The proceeds went to the World Wildlife Fund to help the black rhino from extinction.

BODYGUARD SUPERHIT SONG

ASH -KING performing his new track from the movie Bodyguard with his band " I LOVE YOU"


Sea Foam.

Wearing: Religion Tee, Gas flared leather trousers, Rock n Rose head chain, Little Wing feather hair extension.

Ever since I got this religion top I knew I wanted to wear it in the sea, the back of it just reminds me of a shipwrecked style top that shows a story. I also wanted to pair it with leather trousers as I have always wanted to wear them in the sea too (I know I am completely doolaly!) It was so cold but because I had leather on they were waterproof to a point! 

These are the last of the photo's shot during the photo-shoot with Jessica Brown Photography!
You should really check out her Tumblr HERE She is a seriously talented girl! 

Hope everyone has a great September! I don't know where August went! I have got such an exciting month ahead!
