Another 'blah' post.

I'm sorry to update you on my life and for this lack-luster post. Its not really necessary.
I feel that by the time I get here, I've already been done venting about my life to other people, and I really don't even want to get into it anymore. Not that this blog really needs to turn into something of that type. Oh and also I don't need anyone that knows me and knows how to find this blog to be inside my head. (Like my tumblr O_O )

Progress
Numero uno: I've decided I'm going to make my dress for memorial. Also, that I have a giftcard to Joann Fabrics (Thank you Auntie 'Shelle! ) so I can go buy a new zipper instead of try to salvage one from a random scrap in my bin.
Numero dos: I'm halfway done with a tie. I was going to give it to a friend of mine as their really, really, really, very belated baptism present. But in the process of ironing the interfacing onto it, I burned a little spot on the front part of the tie. I'm so frustrated! This fabric was NOT cheap. I might give it to someone though. Just to see if it works out and then take out the interfacing to use it for another one.
Numero tres: I've started cleaning my room. It's miraculous! I never have that urge. I got rid of two garbage bags full of clothes and donated them to a fellow peer's senior project. Even though we had it last semester, her's is the kind that will (hopefully not) always be in demand. She was raising clothes for teen prostitutes in the Seattle area. Apparently Seattle has the highest rate of teen prostitutes and it's getting worse all the time. So when she gets clothes, they bring in the girls and have them live in a state-governed home (or something like that I can't really remember) but they try to give them the clothes so they remember they're just girls, not adults that have to sell the only thing they have to live.
Numero cuatro: I got two new jobs. Kinda. I got a pizza job, at least I thought I did. A friend of mine is a manager at this pizza place, right? So he basically gets me the job by mere association. I did all the work and came in a billion times to talk to the boss/owner but because he and I are friends, his boss hired me. But then a week later, my friend texts me and says, "Apparently Rob is still thinking about hiring you. So until I know what he decides then you're not hired" Greeeeaaaaat. So, I'm hanging in limbo waiting for the 'go ahead' by Rob. 'Til then, I quit Safeway because that place is a hell-hole. Oh, and I got a cleaning job too. I'll expand on that another time.
Numero cinco: I took pictures of some of my past projects. Things like dresses and other stuff I've found at goodwill that is amazing. Almost everything I wear that gets complimented has been something I've bought there. It makes me feel accomplished. I don't know if this is good or bad. So, expect a post on some of those things in the near, near future.


Blog - You and I are going to become very good friends. You seem to be the only one to care these days.

Oh... hey...

Fancy runnin' into you here! I haven't been here in months!

This blog has always been something that I tell myself I'll be consistent with... and much like the rest of the things in my life, I don't follow through. I have a good feeling about this though and I'll tell you why. Finally, for once in my life, I think I have all my ducks in a row. Now, I'm not saying that I've figured all those ducks out, or what each duck is supposed to represent in my life. The important thing is that they're there. Slowly, I'm finding out what I should be doing with my life and what I want to do with my life. This really helps with an overall peace of mind. Yes, my goals change from time to time, but that's okay because that's what normal humans do throughout their lifetime. What matters is that I have an end goal in sight that I can work towards. This being said, I can now work in things I enjoy doing... and actually do them. Believe me, this is quite the revelation.
