of all the things to never come, forgivness is just a dream.

Crafty Pants.

So I have a secret love affair with crafting blogs, and since I origianlly had trouble making favors with what I saw on other blogs for bridal shower favors. I'm hosting a potluck linen style for my sister. Guests are asked to help with food for everyone and bring linen gifts for the bride. Haha, and I just have to say I'm writing this while wearing a tee that says "I will see you in hell" on it. Oh Irony!

I found these cupcake holders that I though would be good for the whole potluck theme. Plus they were only $2 at a specialty cooking store in our mall. I think even if it was a generic small containter it would work too.

Yea, alot of them. Actually only 17, which I though was small, but the lady still had a snipy comment for me. I guess a punk girl getting favors for a bridal shower is shocking, however me just being a punk girl was always shocking enough around here, anyhoo.

I got a set of tags, light colored tissue paper and a roll of woven ribbon.I cut the ribbon at about 18" and threaded the tags on. You can write on the tags, but I didn't find a ink that really worked on them, so I just left them plain. Yea wasteful decoration, its cute okay? Then I skewed two different colors of tissue, wrapped it around the cupcake holder and then tied the ribbon to close it off. I moved the tag closer to the bow and ta-da!Not the greatest thing in the world but good enough damn it, I like it.
I put them in a basket to look pretty. This is only half of them 'cause I'm and idiot and didnt check how many sheets of tissue paper was in the pack.I alternated colors and such. I think it looks good.

Today.

Humm i just heard this Jamie T song, "Shelia" and its hot. Its like british white boy rap and I love it.
So I started doing a design for a the Used t shirt, and found out it was due the 13th when I thought it was due the 2oth. Oh well, I've been digging the idea anyway.
I really, really want to see A Wilhelm Scream tonight with the Unseen and Crack and Divide. But the kid I can go with, was like "I'll go if the people I'm recording today are okay with stopping." And they went to Balti to do stuff and theyve been gone for about two hours. Which means they probably got nothing laid today, and they probably want to use tonight to catch up. Crap. I really, really wanted to go. He doesn't get me at all, but hes the only one who go with me.
Man, Fashion's "Solo Impala" is hott too.
Whatev. Maybe I'll go on an adventure somewhere. I'm feeling photographic. Even though I suck at it.
And All Time Low were just on fuse. So weird, same area, same age. Makes me wonder if I made the right choice even though its stereotypicaly the right choice to go to school. Fucks me up sometimes.

ew.

I have only 2 and a half pages of a paper, I just can't write. It's due tommorrow and I think I'm gonna keep working on it, but not kill myself over it. I'm also behind on working out, but now I'm sick and sleepy all the time.
I really need to clean before break. A guy friend came into my room and said, "Damn , I'm messy but holy shit." Oops.
BTdubs, garden salsa sun chips are horrible. But I'm eating them anyway.

Monsoon.

Philadelphia turned into the rainforest today. I got nothing done really. I finished drafting a sheet for my building tech class and I did some research for my east asia class so yea nothing.
I got real nervous cause my check engine light came on and I really don't want to spend money on things like that right now. As well, I found out why a third of my computer screen is almost black. Sun damage? Really? Apparently yes. So I guess I have to rearrange my impossible dorm furniture. Crap. And those dorm walls? They hurt. When I woke up and tried to rest my head on a pillow, I hit my head on the concrete, jail like walls. Its like they don't want us digging through to other rooms, being hospitable to each other. Ehh I should pack up from the studio and figure out this desk situation.

Sickie.

So I'm sick. One of the school guards told me that it sounds like I have that new untreatable flu. great. He did tell me that if I drank I would feel better, we'll see if I can work on that tonight. Also due to my intolerance to the world I threw up in the studio while the aforementioned guard was trying to get us out. The process caused the blood vessels in my face to burst and now my face is basically a lot of little tiny bruises that look like my face got ironed.
Yup, the whole being clean and organized thing isn't quite working out because I keep telling myself I need a chance to relax. I did work out though, so I guess I'm better than that. I have a class soon, so I guess after that I'll go to the library and at least do somethings to get work for the weekend started. I did laundry today! Which was nice, but I didn't get to fold because I felt so bad this morning. Maybe I'll do that after I go to the library. I should stop by the studio considering I did nothing yesterday. I doubt there will be anything to go out to, so yea, I will continue to have no social life. Now out into the rain!

After Crit Love

I had a crit today. It went really well, but I definitely need to produce faster, I had stuff that wasn't done, but it was attempted. They said I had improved greatly since midcrit and that I really thought sculpturally. Damn straight. I guess everytime I just have to do shit my own way. They always love it when I do.
With the whole not producing fast enough, the rest of my life kinda went to shit. I missed a field hockey practice, missed one run day last week and didnt do anything this week. My laundry was all over the place so that will be done tommorrow morning and then I'll run and maybe lift after my first class and some food. Folding laundry always is a good stress reliever. And I cleaned a bit, including getting laundry into some sort of container to do. I want this place to be sparkling before break. Especially my desk. I would like to set it up so I can have my Wacom out all the time and get used to using it now. I can't wait to live in a real place. Just a book case would be awesome.

Wow.

I got up at 8, 830, 9. I have been really tired and I went to bed around 3 so I figureI deserve it Well my brain is dead and my fingers shot so this will be short. From 11 am to 1 am I have been in the studio. 14 hours, 85% of my awake hours. shit.
