So I had to go to my part time job yesterday evening as I haven't been working at all lately and I didn't want to let them down again. After arriving at work, I really began to feel like I am living 2 seperate lives at the moment. From a champagne reception with Fun Lovin Criminals to mopping the floor in my local pub...slightly different. However I did get some locals shouting 'we are not worthy' at the bar while bowing down which was rather amusing. I must admit I don't like the idea of going back to my normal life now I have had a taste of what Fame offers. The roles have switched and Fame seems to be conning me by sucking me in to the lifestyle.I want to still hang out with A-listers and spend my days at photo shoots and interviews. I haven't however yet tasted the bad side of fame i.e bad publicity and as I am not known by most of the public just yet I am not harrassed 24/7. So far everyone seems to be supportive and loves the idea of what I am doing but what if I did something bad and the public hated me? I am not sure I am even willing to do something to experience this. I just want to explore what ways there are of becoming famous today but in a good way. Maybe I could try being slightly rude to people at the parties and see what happens?
I do know that I will miss this project immensly as as hard as it was in the beginning it has been one of the best experience of my life. Anyway 4 weeks to go so no more dwelling!

Chelle!!!! This has become more than a project, it's a ground-breaking social experiment into the crazy world of celebrity and fame! Seriously though, it's so interesting to read your thoughts as well as see all the glitzy photos...you should defo keep this element within your show piece. Still one of the best projects by far...I chat to everyone about it, you've worked so hard! Keep it goin, let's see you in a Hollywood movie haha! Well done!
Totally agree with Ravi...it's amazing where your project will end up. Fame is something that's so glamourised by the media that people don't realise that anyone can 'have it' if they try hard enough! Any chance of getting celebs or reporters to our degree show :P?!
Argh! Forgot login again...that was me! Joanna
You guys are so supportive, it's lovely. I have definately learnt that if you don't ask, you don't get and people just don't ask. As soon as you get in with the right 'crowd', it is a lot easier.
