200th Post

Apart from this being the first post written on my very own MacBook, it is also my 200th blog post. So I have two reasons to be excited!

It made sense to post some pictures of this latest acquisition.

Since I need to take this laptop to school a laptop cover was a necessity. And I happened to come across a very cute one that also happened to be one of the cheapest ones they had. It even matches a pair headphones I have.

As of today I pretty much installed everything that needed installing, not everything is working properly though. There seems to be a problem with the transfer from my camera, I already have a dead pixel and the whole computer spontaneously overheated while being turned off yesterday.

I really hope things will get better after this, but at least it's working and I have a very cute wallpaper installed. Fur Girl by Mark Ryden, which is one of my absolute favorite paintings. I even have plans for "Furring" up my iPod too. But more on that later...

A Little Project, custom bookmarks and great news!

Introduction week proved too much for me and I had to call in sick halfway through the week. While I was at home I felt like crocheting. I don't really like the cold, but at least it's an excuse to get the yarn out again. And after a whole summer without hooks or needles I was dying to pick it up again.

So I made this little creature, I'm not sure he truly is an owl, but I think he's a cute little guy.

I'm thinking of crocheting again for Etsy and I will also relist all the hats and fingerless gloves for this winter.

Speaking of Etsy as of today I have a bunch of cat, dog and even wolf silhouette bookmarks in the color of your choice. The listing shows 20 colors you can pick from.

Before now I only had two cats and had picked the colors myself, but I figured it'd be cool to get your favorite pet in your favorite color.

Other news? I now have a Mac Book for art school. Even though it was required for classes, this is also good news for my blogging! I can't wait to try it:) Pictures soon...
