YEEHAAAAAW

It's building up,
It's on its way,

It's gonna be
A super awesome day.

(I am so lame)
(Lame is the new cool?)




I am starting to feel a bit better after my horrible flu (which the doctor told me was actually Bronchitis - eww).

Bit stressed though. I thought this week was going to be a bit more relaxed after my crazy being-sick-2-assignments-due-and-a-test week. Turns out I have another assignment to do this week, another test and Kraftbomb to think about!

I am a bit sad because I broke my popsicle mold by putting polyester resin in it (thought I'd try it out because I usually use epoxy). Baaa! Who knew that it would ruin it? I might try to make a new mold tonight and then hopefully can whip a couple out before the weekend. Also my hearts mold is ruined because I put too much hardener in the resin and it ripped some of the silicone away with it. After 2 years of playing with resin you'd think it'd get easier but I still make costly (and time wasting) mistakes.

I made a new mold! But... I actually need some beading lessons before I can make it work because I'd basically be making resin beads but I don't know how to make the clasps on a necklaces once the beads are strung up on a wire. Yeek. I wish I could make that before Kraftbomb!

Maybe next time. This is what I keep telling myself. Maybe someday in that magical life I will be leading where I have plenty of time for everything (including the gym) and I have a balanced lifestyle in all ways and everything gets done and my bedroom is not just a place to keep piles (literally piles) of junk that I should throw out or donate to the salvation army.

I think I should stop this rant now. Yes. Goodbye.

I think I can help you with that beading problem. If you want.

lame IS the new cool! (i think so anyway) see you this weekend. Also! I was wondering who supplies you your stirling silver chain if you don't mind me asking. I'm on the hunt for some :)
