When I was younger I would go through these fazes, in which I’d get obsessed with some craft and do nothing but that one craft for weeks onto months.
In fourth grade I would collect glass bottles and glue pieces of tissue paper on them. I remember spending day after day in my room listening to book on tapes and work at “my craft table.” It was this shelf like thing on wheels I found on my neighbor’s corner.
I would sit at it mixing water into the glue, so it wouldn’t get gloopy, and rip hundreds of tissue paper pieces.
When that faze ended, I packed up all the bottles and put them in a large box, which sat in my closet for years.
I don’t really know why I made all those…….whatever you want to call them. I mean, I know I couldn't use them for anything. But for some reason I kept at it.
Now I try to limit my crafts to things I can actually enjoy.
So now stick to working on my own clothes. There is always just this gratification that comes with wear something of your own creation.
Like these.........
Now you can't see it, but the ribbon is sewn on to the shirt in the back.
My hand sewn Mp3 player case.
Some rockin earrings that came out kind of looking like eyes.

Anyone without a sense of humor is at the mercy of the rest of us
Not that long ago I went to a visit day at my sister's college. I went the eventhing before, and spent the night in her dorm room.
Now, it's no secret that not all of my family like understand my stayle. So when my sister turned around to see me pull a black and white polk-a-dot dress over my shirt and jeans, I could hear the exasperation in her voice and see the dissopiontment in her face. If I wasn't sure about the outfit before, I certanly knew after.
It's responces like that, that make dressing the way I do just that much more fun.
I've been making alot of stuff lately, and I'll post the pictures soon.
Peace.

My name is “Plays with squirrls.”
So here are just some pictures from the beginning of summer when I went to the zoo with some friends.
The prairie dogs are my favorite animals at this zoo.
I could stare at them all day long.
Especially this one.

I have no idea what this animal is called.
I once went on one of those stupid Camel rides they have at some zoos, and did not enjoy it one bit. So now I just take pictures of them.
Peace.
