This last week has been pretty rough. I felt like there really wasn't anything to say with out just straight out complaining for a whole entry, so I haven't been writing, but I might as well just write something! School has been really hard the past week. It's not like the work got harder or anything, I just hate sitting still in the class room for seven whole hours containing myself! Then after school I have musical rehearsal, which has not lived up to my expectations. I thought I was going to get to be all creative, but it's mostly just been a lot of cleaning, but I am going to stick with it, and see what comes out.
Something I just realized I wanted to mention is my Saint Patrick's day dress, or as I officially named it last night my embroidery dress. I found this bluish green corduroy dress at Goodwill for five bucks. It looked sort of plain and shapeless, so I bought it as a fun little project for myself. When I started embroidering I first just started doing the easiest thing I know. Flowers around the collar of the dress in light yellow and pink. (They look wonderful against the green) About halfway through the second flower (which took about two hours worth of work) I realized this is a Saint Patrick's day dress what am I doing!? I should be embroidering shamrocks, and horseshoes! But when I tried I couldn't get my embroidery out, I had done it so tight. So then I decided I can continue with the flowers and do those things on the pockets of the dress. Then I realized why not just have fun with this dress and make it my embroidery dress! The cloth is perfect for embroidery! I'll just have fun with it! And that is what I am doing. I'll show pictures when I am done.
