I’ve been a wee bit busy this past week sorting my application for the university course I’m applying forand finally got it sorted on Monday and posted. Phase One complete. Phase two is waiting to see if I get a letter of acceptance for registration and then I have to send a portfolio via CD … if that goes well I may secure a place, if there’s more people vying for the last vacancies then it’s an interview and a hard copy portfolio. So I’ve been a little stressed making sure I have everything I need. The careers advisor has been amazing and has helped me sort all of this and I have another meeting with her on Friday to see what other things we can do incase I am not successful.
I’ve had positive and not so positive support as to this decision from varying sources. Thing is it’s something I have worked towards for a while. I am mostly self taught because I never had the opportunities to enhance my knowledge in any other way. The course has a hell of a lot of positives for me and I have sat down with the careers advisor and worked through all of this and my options. Long term goals and plans are being laid and with her help its slowly becoming a reality. I didn’t walk out of school and jump into a university degree I worked, I learnt along the way what fueled me career wise and the things that I got job satisfaction out of. Looking back my jobs have always been graphics orientated but I am still limited as to the types of jobs I can apply for as I don’t have the qualifications to match.
Without that single piece of paper it limits me as to the type of work I want to do. If I get in then the next three years are going to be something that is literally going to fuel me and the passion that has become a life long dream. Eventually I’d love to own my own graphic design company and it’s the type of work that will see me well into my retirement. There are so many options with graphic design and the fruits it can bring. So I am moving forward and still keeping open to other options along the way.
Hence there’s not been a lot of action on the blog this week as I’ve been preoccupied.
I have managed to spit out a couple of reviews for Eden Fantasys and one is up … ‘Experience the Ecogasm’ … a freekin gorgeous double ended wooden dildo handcarved by this awesome guy Hans who owns Hardwood Dildos. He makes each dildo by hand and they are all unique and beautiful pieces of craftsmanship. What’s even more awesome is he is is careful to minimize his impact on natural resources by only making the dildos out of wood gifted to him by friends or offcuts from various other projects. This itself is quite a unique approach and something I think is bloody awesome!
The other review is a glass probe … and oh my gawd … I luffs it! I will let you know when the review is up.
Drew, who I work with via Eden Fantasys, flicked me an email this morning letting me know they have another manufacturer’s interview up so of course I went and nosied.
The latest one is with Susan Colvin who started Cal Exotics fifteen years ago, in 1994; It’s a huge company and they have a wide range of really fun products. I am in love and badly want one of their inked vibes, I am a sucker for arty farty things and they have very cool tattoo art all over them lol. Now I am a fan of this company because one of my first toys I bought was the Impulse Jack Rabbit. Check the video out to see why I love this so much …
The first time I used it I had an orgasm in two minutes flat. It became my best friend for a good four years and I used it a hell of alot. One of the only toys I had that always got me off and gave me wonderful clitoral and vaginal orgasms. I sadly broke it … snapped the shaft in two but hell four years of grinding myself on it .. well I’m not complaining it was well worth the money. I am tempted to go and get myself another just because it’s one of my favourite toys. It rotates, it buzzes fantastically and it has rotating beads, the sensations are divine and I have not come across a toy that boasts this many sensations all at once like this since.
So anyways I went and read the interview and it’s so damn awesome to read such an interesting interview. The questions are varied and Susan has answered them all extensively. A little insight into a company and understanding what’s involved in the process of designing, marketing and conversing with customers is something unique and refreshing to read with EF. I am really enjoying the participation offered here. So if you are at all slightly curious as to how and what the founder of a sex toy company does and all about the toys then go be nosey. I dare you.
Eden Fantasys isn’t just a sex toy site it’s a growing community of reviewers and members and of late the manufacturer’s have joined up and are answering all sorts of questions about their companies and toys. It’s quite a cool thing to be able to sit down and find out how these companies work and what’s involved in getting that wee sexual toy of wonder to your door.
