References for Dress

The real pictures are huge! And so you can see tons of detail! And that's what I used to design my dress. I think I need to slim down the red part of the skirt.

Halloween!

Well... It's the middle of September! So that means I'm starting to work on MY Halloween costume.



Here are all the pieces of my costume!




The top! One of the coolest parts! There will be beading later on around the neck and arm holes and beaded fringe around the bust seam.




Ooh! The whole thing! There will be beaded fringe along the bottom of each tulle layer. There will also be beaded circles above each line of fringe.... Oh there will be beading on the hem of the overlay/train.

Have you guessed what it is yet?

Hmmm?

Wanna hint?








Another hint?





Oh you know this movie!

Well... I'm being Rose from Titanic! I'm making/wearing the dress from when Rose tries to commit suicide after dinner.... But Jack saves her :)

Doctor who?

Doctor? Doctor who?
Who is this doctor? He's a time traveling Time Lord of course who specializes in saving people.... Especially humans.
Let me tell you.... I love doctor who. I especially love the 10th and 11th doctors portrayed by David Tennet and Matt Smith.



Here is Matt Smith as Doctor #11. I love him. I would love to hug him.




Here is a sneak peak from the new episode.... Spoilers ;)




Ahh.... David Tennet. So solemn... Yet so spazzy. I love him.




Such a gentleman!

Newer technology!

So.... I got an iPad and let me tell you, I just love it!!!
I think I am forever addicted to the amazingness that is the tablet! It is super handy! I use it for everything.
I started my job and school.
My job is awesome but it makes me so tired!
I hate college. I hate parking, I hate my teachers, I hate not having friends, I hate the homework! I am not enjoying myself!

Well, that's about it

Trying Out Some New Technology

Well… I am trying out the Windows Live Writer for this post. I had already written an ENTIRE post for you guys! And then it decided to close and stop working and I lost it! HOW RUDE! I have to say that I really love the fun fonts on this program though…. maybe I’ll try some of the new fonts out!

Hello there… I have to say that I really like this one… but I’m sure its not the easiest to read. Lets try a new one

hmmm… this one is kind of fun and it seems like its easier to read…

This one is my favorite… because I’m a dork and it looks like sparklies!!!

Primary Time!

So, at church I teach the 10 and 11 year olds. I really love teaching them. They are so much fun. We have two or three girls (depending on the week) and around 6 or 7 boys. They are the most roudy kids I have ever met but they are so genuine and tons of fun.
Well, I taught the lesson today and the lesson was directed 100% towards me. And guess what this lesson was on...
Forgiveness.
Good one huh.

I just thought I'd share this little yes/no quiz we took today in class.

a. Are you forgiving when you say, "I forgive you, but I will not forget what you did"?
b. Are you forgiving when you are happy that something unfortunate has happened to someone who was unkind to you?
c. Are you forgiving when your brother or sister hits you and you dont get mad?
d. Are you forgiving whenyou want to get even with someone who has been unkind to you?
e. Are you forgiving when you stop talking to someone who has been unkind to you?
f. Are you forgiving when you stand up for someone who has been unkind to you?
g. Are you forgiving when you speak unkindly about the person who you thas been unkind to you?

These are such simple questions and its so easy to say which ones are yes and which are no. But honestly, these made me think alot more than I wish they did. These are such easy concepts... but do we really do them?

This Feels Like Turning 18

Well Friends,
I am now a High School Graduate. Ya! It really hasnt hit me yet... maybe it will when I start college, maybe it never will.

I was the 3rd person to graduate because I was in the choir! It was pretty awesome and weird. My parents kept asking me, "did you hear everyone screaming for you!?" Well, no, I didnt. It was totally silent for me actually! The rest of graduation was flippin' boring! Too much talking!

I got to run out of the event center and that was really fun. I wanted to take pictures and talk with my friend for probably the last time but I couldnt because that STUPID GIRL decided to be glued to his side the entire time. Later he and his mom kept calling me trying to find me but well... if i'm just standing there by myself why would I stick around. If they wanted me to stay he should have talked to me or something.

I went out to dinner to Olive Garden with my family. It was really fun even though I didnt eat very much.

Then I went home. I was going to go to the all night party but I couldnt find my ID. Turns out it was in my grandma's lawn... I think there was a reason I wasnt suppose to go.

Anyway, I totally broke down. I cried like a freaking baby. I cried for the past 2 months, for all the friends I've lost, for the people who have ganged up on me to hurt me, for my friend because I have lost him forever and for the pain he is going to have to go through. I had never felt so tired in my life.
