The Rules!
● You must post these rules (VERY Important )
● Each person must post 10 things about themselves on their journal.
● Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post, and create ten new questions for the people you tag to answer.
● You have to choose 10 people to tag and post their icons on your journal.
● Go to their pages and tell them you have tagged her/him.
● No tag backs!
● No crap in the tagging section about "you are tagged if you're reading this." You legitimately (AKA, really, truly with all honesty) have to tag 10 people.
Questions
1. What do you like to do when it is sunny?
Sit in the sunshine and either draw or write
2. A beautiful girl steals your Lollypop! Oh wait its a man?!?! What are you going to do about it?
Eh, whatever. They're welcome to my germs, and I'm not a big fan of candy anyway.
3. If you are going to bake a cake what insane decoration will you put on top to grab peoples attention and it has to be edible of coarse this is a cake! (Stupid non-edible decorations! non-edible I take that as a challenge!) so whats it made of?
Hmmm, I think I would put a fake knife made of sugar. It would trick people into thinking it's a real knife, and maybe they coooould use it to cut the cake (maybe), and then I could freak them out by eating the knife. >
4. You open the door to your room and a bunch of _____ fall out! Who did it and what was it?
Balloons!
Who done it? Either a fun friend or a cute guy. :\\)
5. If you had Mary Poppins bag that had endless room what would you put in it?
I'd put 90% of the junk in my room so it would finaaalllyy be clean!
6. If you were the size of Thumbilina who would be the same size as you and what would you do?
Fairies!!!! Can I have some wings too?! *hope, hope*
We would have soooo much fun! Eat an entire blueberry, fly races through the trees, make little fairy clothes out of leaves, ride a dragonfly, tease the cats, etc.
7. If it could rain any thing what would you make it rain?
Um, does wisdom and intelligence count? It hardly matters what rains down if people don't use it wisely.
8. Imagine some thing that makes you laugh really hard. Now imagine that on top of a lama. Did you laugh harder?
Not really. I was thinking of a show I watched where a proper, elegant Victorian lady was trying to learn how to act like a man. My sides ached for a week! Maybe if she were trying to learn how to ride a llama like a man? Yeah, that would make it even funnier.
9. If your lawn could grow animals what kind of animals would be growing out of your lawn?
Uh, what would I do with all those animals? Maybe some of the cutest pokemon.
10. In a room where no sound could be heard how would you get peoples attention?
Probably gently touch their shoulder, hoping they don't jump out of their skin.
Questions for you to answer
1. What was your favorite cartoon growing up? (if you didn't watch cartoons or tv at all then name a book)
I liked Frugal Gourmet - a cooking show. (I was an odd kid. Then again, I still don't like the cartoons from back then.)
2. Someone's at your door! You answer it and find it's your favorite movie/tv/book character! Who is it and how do you react?
Morwen from the Enchanted Forest Chronicles?! Oh pleeeeaaase teach me how to make one of those doors!!! Maybe how to make those sleeves too. Oh, and I'd like to talk to my cats too.
3. You're in your room playing the radio and your favorite song comes on so you start rocking out but about halfway through the song you realize your window is open and a REALLY hot guy/girl has seen you. What do you do rockstar?
Keep dancing!
4. GRABOID ATTACK!!! (if you've never seen Tremors then insert a monster or a real animal before attack)
Pepper spray? Anything to hit with? Perhaps a good scream?
5. Favorite fruit! (yes random I know )
Cherries!
6. If you could go into ANY book/movie/show what would it be and why.
The Enchanted Forest Chronicles! Why? Cause I like it.
7. DISNEY!!! Ok what was the first thing you thought of?
Mickey Mouse is lame, and Disney is a billion times lamer for forcing the copyright laws to continually increase the number of years they apply. Instead they should lobby for an option to renew the copyright, but only if you were the previous owner (or maaaaybe the direct descendant, aka child, of the previous owner)!
9. *Gasp* Oh no! You've been turned into a (house) cat! O_O So what's the first thing you do?
Go exploring into all the places I couldn't, including the brick ledge around our house that the cats keep walking along from roof to roof!
10. Ooh shiny lightsaber! Jedi or Sith choose you must.
Jedi! Duh!

2,000+ messages? Yikes! I guess it's time for another update.
My attempts to NOT start new projects failed miserably. Maybe I should treat some of my old projects like they're awesome new ones (kind of like I'm doing with my magazine collection - it's keeping me from buying new ones that I don't need).
One of these new projects I really should put on DA. I think it would be awesome to draw cool pictures on shirts, but I thought I'd try something smaller - baby shoes. They turned out uber cute! >.< (If I do say so myself.)
I was meaning to sell them to raise money for an Illustrating conference I wanted to go to. But 1) my coworkers are as poor as I am (I should put them online), and 2) come to find out, the conference is at the same time as a summer camp that I already promised I'd help with. Phooey. Well, maybe I can get some of these shoes sold anyway.
Speaking of which, I have a new nephew and I need to finish the shoes my sister asked for.
Another project I'm working on are some headbands with beaded water lilies. Sadly I can't find fabric printed with shimmering water like you might find in a koi pond to save my life. Maybe I'll have to crank up my old printer (the new one is a pain and can't handle heavy sheets) and print it myself.
I will attempt to keep writing at least. (And maybe even put up some of my projects.)

Time for a new Journal entry
1 min read
Okay this is lame. I haven't put up a new journal entry since last October.
For lack of something better to post I'll give an update on my activities. Basically I've been cleaning my room (finally) and in the process I found a billion different projects in various states of completion and promise (i.e. most of those projects were promised to various people a billion years ago - apparently I'm a major slacker). Anyway, so now I'm desperately trying to finish said projects.
Some of these lovely projects include beaded waterlilies for some cousins, a dress for moi, and The Lady of Shallot cross stitch that my sister gave me, not to mention framing all the stuff I previously did! When I finally get these done I'll have to post some of them for you all.
Yeah, so I'm desperately trying NOT to start new projects until these are all done. (And if I can do that look for some ice in Hades.) Wish me luck!

For my last drawing assignment we each picked a hallway on campus and drew it. It wasn't a particularly hard assignment, but it took me forever (for some odd reason, this drawing class is taking all my free time).
I was so worried that my teacher would point out all sorts of mistakes especially after he had been critiquing other student's stuff pretty hard (mostly stuff about lines not lining up with the perspective point), but I got a very nice surprise. Not only did he not say anything bad about my piece, but he said I drew the very best wire caddy he had seen in his entire career!!! xD (For those who don't know, the ceilings at my college are open so you see all the pipes and stuff and all the wires are laid in a rack/caddy kind of thing that looks like a ladder going along the ceiling.) Okay, so an awesome wire caddy isn't all that cool, but hey, it sure was an awesome compliment.
I'm also uber excited that I got straight A's on all my previous assignments. I sure hope this trend continues.

I Bought a Sewing Machine!!!!! xD
2 min read
I am soooooo incredibly excited!!! I just bought a sewing machine!!!!! xD It has been used (barely), but all the accessories and attachments are brand new plus I got a case for it! The lady I bought it from is such a great friend and is the greatest seamstress I know (followed closely by my Grandma and my sister's mother-in-law).
Potential projects are filling my mind. My first one will be to make a mini "rice bag." It's basically just a little fabric bag filled with grain (usually rice or corn – the unpopable kind of course) that you can put in the microwave to treat various pains. I just love mine and would like a mini one.
After that there are too many projects to choose from:
* All the mending I need/want to do
* All the cool clothes I want to make (fairy dress & wings, an airbrushed jacket, a frog costume for my nephew, a pirate costume for when I finish my children's book, a steampunk costume for Halloween, an old-fashioned swimsuit for my dream vacation, Sailor Moon costumes for the twin daughters of a friend, etc.)
* All the clothes I want to modify into something new & cool – aka my own fashions (check out www.threadbanger.com/ for what I'm talking about – way awesome)
* All the unfinished projects laying around my house (the shorts I started when I was 8, the chair cushion for the dining room chair that we no longer have, the tiny quilted wall hanging that we started up at girls' camp 15 years ago, etc.)
* Etc. and so much more
Now I just need to clear a space to put it and start sewing!
