so yea... interesting ideas today

today is crazy busy I have so many classes that I have to read and what not for that I cant even think straight half the time, I started reading Their Eyes Were Watching God by Hurston this week and I am enjoying it, almost as much as Orlando. Which is odd for me, I need to pick up the audio book format for it so that I can knit or crochet or paint at the same time as I am supposed to be reading for class, because otherwise I will not read because I cant read and do other things at the same time. however this book I am enjoying though I find the discussions in class something to be desired, there is one kid whom I personally think is slightly racist but at the same time it could just be that he is ignorant as well. which on this campus now a days is not hard to believe, I mean they're hosting Ron Paul here today, and everything that I have seen or heard come out of his mouth is racist against someone. not exactly someone who I would want running the government of this country. oh well this is not a political blog by any stretch of the imagination.


an upside-down fluttershy that was
on the plaza this week. cute yes?

enough ranting and raving, over the last couple days on campus there have been several things referencing the new My Little Pony: friendship is magic TV show chalked about the plaza, and to be honest I think it is positively adorable, I will admit that I do like the show and enjoy watching it, but I have never seen anyone other than than a couple people in my Japanese class talk about the show or even express an interest in it at all. which begs the question who could be chalking the plaza with "cutie marks" and other show references? oh well that is a question for another day as well as I wish to post a picture of these markings but a majority have faded away with people walking on them. I wonder if there will be more this week or not. If there are any I will attempt to get proper photographic evidence... well as proper as I can get with my cell phone... wow 2 paragraphs in and I haven't even talked about knittng or any fiber or artsy related things yet today.

well on my hooks are about 3 dolls still in progress a natural creamy colored wool one; a green one, soon to be a frog; and a tan one which is almost finished I just need to get the hair fixed and then it will be on its way to get its picture taken with the others. on the knitting side of things I have a lace shawl and some socks. I am also sewing up another vest for my white rabbit, and I think that I will end up getting that pocket watch from hobby lobby instead of just making a fake chain one that cant be used. I am also making a little mini panda bear and I am going to make it into a backpack charm. not sure if they will sell or not but we shall see. and the tan doll also still needs clothing and a set of wings which I will be making from organza and wire, and possibly some iridescent fabric paint if I can convince my friend Marina to loan me some.
