Blahhh

Not a good day for me. My best friend might not be able to go to Japan with me and I cant imagine the trip without her ='( I am being plagued my financial troubles (me and the rest of the world). I have soooo much to do and no motivation to do any of it. And to top it all off....it was raining today X(. I normally like the rain, when I can take long naps and laze around my room and do nothing.

I need to cheer up and see the bigger picture! But for now I just feel like Blah!

ARHHGGG HATS!!

Soooo This is my third time trying to make this hat and it doesn't look good. I made the first one for my friend's Birthday and it came out really well she loved it. Then I wanted to make my own with Jack Skellington's face on it, but for some reason my gauge is not adding up and its not coming out right!!! I am so frustrated with it right now!! but I am not giving up!! I will complete this hat before Halloween!!!

First Try

Second Try

Third Try

Its a work in progress, currently working on my fourth try and I am hoping for the best!!

2nd Week Assignment!!!

So this week we were asked... What 5 things would you not leave home without if you were going into hiding, camping, or running away and WHY.

Well If I were to run away I would take

1. My Laptop and necessary lap top things (charger, laptop bag)

It would serve as a connection to the outside world. Now that I have deserted my former life I need a way to create a new identity to start all over. Plus I can google anything I want =).

2. A suitcase full of clothing

I am definitely going to be needing clothes!!!

3. Cash!

Cash is secure nowadays, cant have the police tracking me from my credit cards now =)

4. Passport

Well If I am running away I better be going somewhere amazing!! preferably outside of the US

5. Knitting

I gotta have my current WP, I might just go insane with out it!!!

That was fun!!! hmm I might make this trip a reality....some day =P
