i-D online- Bee keeping
Thursday, August 19, 2010

Over the summer one of my many projects was documenting young people in East London getting involved in Bee Keeping for i-D online.

The whole process of bee keeping was really interesting and I was lucky enough to get some natural honey for my hay fever, I suffer from hay fever really badly at one point in April I was contemplating leaving the country lol… I’m SO serious… i wake up sneezing.

On one of the days I put on a bee keeping overalls and took a picture but *shaking my head* I can’t share the picture. I showed it to my friends and they almost wet themselves laughing because I had plastic bags around my feet…me being me I didn’t go in the correct footwear I wore flip flops NOT SENSIBLE at all so you can imagine what the picture of me looks like…. A JOKE!

Little pots of natural honey lip balm.

oldies but goodies

I think I’ve said this before….but when I was younger i used to LOVE Will Smith

The weekend just gone I had sooooo much editing to do and I needed company so I watched Poetic Justice… last time I watched it was donkeys ago. Old skool! film ….Janet and Regina King with the braids and check the watch over Janets sleeve lol LOVE iT
