Coffee Shop.

(Left to right: Roz Gooding, Me and Clive Matthews)

For a while now, I have known that I want to get back into drawing and doodling and things like that, but I've also decided that I want to be like one of those people who regularly go and meet up with friends in a coffee shop to catchup, possibly collaborate and share ideas.

However, there's the issue that I don't like coffee, I know they sell tea and hot chocolate etc, although I always tend to think that it's a coffee shop, you have to have coffee (you may have noticed I'm a tad strange, I know). Another thing is I haven't created any work since putting the little exhibition together we did for our final assessment, not even sketchbook work, which I feel really bad about and I don't know when it'll change.

At the moment I am at an extremely lazy stage, because my course has finished I do not go to the studios anymore. I stay in my room and do the same old things day in and day out. Occasionally, I’ll go for a little walk or shopping, but I seem to have lost myentusiasm. I haven't been outside since the weekend, maybe that has something to do with my lack of willingness to do anything.

I guess my whole 'wanting to be one of those coffee shop people' comes from this new isolation that surrounds me. I miss seeing friends and the working in collaboration that we did. It's strange, I've had too much time to think and it could be making me crazy...
