I can't pick. Also, 100th blogpost.*

Initially, I was less than thrilled with these pictures. They involved an awful lot of running around, stress, and effort to get. But as it turns out, I now have five I really like, and can only really turn three in to class.








*Irony at its finest - decision making, which I hate most, coupled with blogging, which I seem to be pretty fond of.

I swear, this is the story of my life.

I don't know how it happens, it just does.
garflied minus garfield

I can take photos, and I can sew.

But apparently I can't take pictures of things I've sewn. They never seem to work out quite right. I HATE using my flash, so I tried to use god's gift to Seattle - 365 days a year of nice ambient lighting, but my window is awkwardly situated to shoot from, and I had forgotten I'd set my camera on a super high ISO earlier in the day. So I didn't get many good shots. Anyhow, this is a glimpse of the sewing I've done over the last week (the top shirt is made of a really soft corduroy). I'm really pretty proud of it all.








I love the Built By Wendy pattern I sewed these from. I'm sure there will very many shirts and dresses to follow. But for now, I need to focus, so Jackie is tucked safely under my desk until the three day weekend.

Someday I'll learn not to re-pot plants in my dorm room.

It makes kind of a mess.

The official list of famous people I'm randomly fond of.

James Franco
Zooey Dechanel
Colin Firth
Natalie Portman

On a partially related note, I went to the Egyptian and saw Milk with Kelsey, Adam, Cate and Danielle tonight, and I thought it was phenomenal. I love going to the movies in Seattle.

Perfomative Photos

I finally did my first photo project! I'm pretty excited for the course.




*note.. I made the shirt myself!

So maybe I've done a lot of crafting in the last 24 hours.

But Markus was at the coast and I had giftcards. So it's acceptable.

I learned how to make buttonholes!

Which means I was able to finish my skirts, and whip this guy out in .2 seconds. I'm really excited about it. And crafting in general. And not packing.

I drink a lot of diet coke.

A lot a lot a lot.
And as of 12:17am on New Years I went cold turkey.
And I have the headache to prove it.
Blah.
I'll probably just end up consuming epic tons of coffee.

I had to make an entirely new tag for this post. I guess I don't usually blog when I'm in a bad mood.
