Well hello there! You know, for someone who is currently unemployed, I’ve been keeping myself pretty busy!
I’ve been working on some crafts – I FINALLY learned how to use my sewing machine thanks to a great video posted at Style School, and well, reading the manual for my sewing machine. My lines may not be straight but hey, I can wind a bobbin like it’s nobody’s business!
I also built myself a lightbox out of a lot of tape, paper and foamcore. I need to grab an extension cord before I can set it up permanently, but hopefully you’ll be seeing a ton of photos soon.
School has been keeping me busy, I’ve been trying to keep up on my work early on in the week so that I don’t have to worry about it. One of my classes doesn’t actually require any weekly effort. All I have to do is complete 2 assignments and a final exam, which is both cool and a little scary. My marketing class is pretty interesting, I find the format a little confusing though. The content isn’t always up at the beginning of the week, so I can’t really finish that work until closer to the end.
I haven’t made any cakes recently – but I will be making one this weekend for a friends baby shower, so I’ll be sure to get that posted here! I’m hoping to start doing some cake/cupcake orders later on in the year. I want to take some more classes first though.
I went up to Blue Mountain on Friday – finally making use of my 5×7 pass! I spent an hour or so on the little beginner hill trying to teach myself, with the help of my BF. It was mostly a lot of falling, and I have a ton of battle bruises to prove it. The good news is, I did it and I can’t wait to get a little more purple next week!
That’s about all I’ve been up to, I’ve been spending so much time reading blogs that I really have no energy to actually blog. My feed reader probably hits about 300/day and I read every single one of them. Crazy, I know – but it’s all part of a little something I have up my sleeve!
I’m off to do some homework – so I can spend tomorrow creating!
Hope you had a good weekend =)
