Virtual pencil-pushing

Personal goal: write another play to submit by March.

I can do this.

I can!

So this time around, I want to give romance a try. Well not exactly romance, but some romantic interaction (if that just made any sense at all). I have a starting plot :D

This time around I'm going to try to keep tabs on the ol' blog. …If my writing sucks/stinks/makes you want to vomit, please alert me and I'll end your online suffering.

Have a summary then:
Hopeless romantic chess-champion Calvin Dunn is waiting for the perfect girl. Britney Carr may be charming and confident, but her grades are far from perfect. With militant teachers, chess tournaments, and the dreaded TRAUMA's (Test of Rational Analysis Underlying Mathematical Application) ahead, will Calvin ever get a chance to tell Britney how he feels?

This will be quite the project :P

FO: Monarch

Yarn: Malabrigo Lace in Glazed Carrot (such a yummy orange).
Pattern: Baktus


Sometimes, life is like a scarf. A good idea at first, and it starts out well. You have to work at it some, but a challenge is fun. But eventually you just get tired. Things are dragging on much longer than you thought they would. Mistakes are made all too easily, and they get harder and harder to fix. Nothing is turning out how you pictured.
It takes courage, confidence, and maybe even a little insanity to rip it to shreds and start over.

But it's all worth it in the end.


Look out, Fall. Here I come.

Riiiiiip

You take too long, you never lie flat, and you need to bulk up. Sayonara, Haruha.


Mmm, yarn carnage.

Sun been down for days

Unable to think of a proper title, I opted for the so very original song lyric.

Onwards!
Presenting some recently acquired items:

A cactus

A bangle

Some buttons

A sketchbook

And better-than-classic literature ;)

I just downloaded an immense amount of photos from Phipps Conversvatory, so those should be up soon…am I forgetting anything?

Slowly getting back into knitting, what with school being mean and taking all my time away.

ALSO! I looked through my archives. Oy vey. I deleted a ton of uselessness from three years ago (was I really that annoying?! …Don't answer that), and now Thinking in Magenta is slightly more clean, and well, tasteful.

And with slightly less of these: ;P
