I got grant money to put on a show of my ATCs! Huzzah! (Though while they told me a while ago I would be getting the money I haven't actually gotten it yet...)
This means I'll be making more ATCs than I have been and trading more ATCs than I have been (If you would like to trade, let me know).

Also, about to go on Winter Break which means I will be very bored for a long while which also means I'll be making things a lot.

Also also, I posted a few new items in my etsy store which you should all go and check out! [link] I'll try to list even more items as we begin to head into the Christmas shopping season, and may give some special offers to deviantart peoples, so keep checking back.

I finally got all the books I've made in my papermaking class (and in the case of the mini-ones just for the hell of it) photographed and posted. Now you all can see I have actually been productive the last few weeks!

Halloween's coming up, going steampunk as per usual but not sure which SP outfit to wear yet. In case you didn't know I'm going to Ohio University which has one of the biggest halloween block parties out there, so it's a bigger holiday here than most places.

I love making paper and books!
Pics of the books I've made so far as soon as I get them back (turned 'em in to be graded now).

Grant application to do a show of ATCs has been turned in, I'll find out if I get it on the 28th.

I have internet at home again!
And a car!
And 4 new hats!
And Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box!
And a tiny umbrella shaped hole punch!
And a bunch of other happying things
And I'm going to dragoncon this weekend (and I haven't finished my costumes yet)
And then classes are starting again and I've been so busy with dragoncon stuff I haven't packed at all to move back into the dorms and I haven't finished the second draft of my grant application and I haven't done a bunch of other things I should have...
but hats!
All will be well.


Also, entering the two predators in the "9" movie contest. Too bad I can't enter the clockbugs (unless I make more). I'll be making some more things for it I'm sure those were just the initial burst of inspiration.

Heading off on cross-country road trip with my mom and her friend Metra. First stop Chicago, then heading for Wisconsin, then heading westward, then down the west coast to California, then down to grand canyon (etc.) then back eastward through the middle of the country back to Ohio.
Adventure awaits!
and making things in the car.

My birthday was friday, fairly uneventful but dad got me a new camera, so I won't keep borrowing his to take pictures of ATCs and things.

If anyone's playing pokemon on the DS (diamond pearl or platinum), I'm looking for friend codes of people to play with! Mine is 0088 0690 6646
Post yours as a comment and I'll add you (go to key items/pal pad to find yours and put more in if you didn't know how)
I also have age of empires that I could multiplayer but I only just got it so not sure how to work the multiplayer, but that's a possibility too.
