Darn Owls!:(

so i just did my first duel round and lost based on the delivery time of my partners package: 4am this morning!!! of course i think that thats totally unfair cause it wasnt actually delivered to me it was delivered to my school, it was actually delievered to me at 1pm when my school's mail center opens with the new mail of the day... so yeah i'm a little upset and probably sound like a poor loser but whatever now i've learned that when i do another one of these duels, i havta have it sent to my boyfriend's house so that it will actually be delievered to me on the time it says it was delievered... ugh:( anyways on a happier tone, the hat my partner made is awesome!!:D its nice fallish colors and tho it isnt tight like a beanie, its more like a beret which fits kinda nicely, thanks a bunch cassie goode!!:D

i hope she really likes the hat i made for her cause i tried to get the blues and purples that she liked, mine fits more like a beanie tho.... i think it came out awesomely!!:D
AND as you all can see!! i finally figured out how to post images:D

lol, sooo yeah update on swap stuff: i have started the handmade bag, just need to pick up more yarn to finish the pieces then sew them together and then i want to sew a lining for the bag so that she can use it as a bag bag and not fear of things slipping out. i've found the yarn im gonna get for the fingerless mitts kit and what pattern, i just need to order the yarn and print out the pattern and put it in something nice, then im starting to get some ideas for other fun things to put in the bag... i hope that she'll love everything when the term is over and we send out our packages.

Muggle World Update: so tomorrow is my first pledge testing for delta psi rho sooo everyone wish me luck!! and then also wish me luck for my ancient greek exam on friday!!!:D

A Day So Far of Yayness!:)

Just a Quick Note

soo i did actually copy and put my wish list in the little thing to the left sooo that should count for points:)

Finally a Wish List...

hmmm.... okie sooo after looking at a couple of other ppl's list here is mine....

Wish List:

sooo i love knit/crochet books, i really like amigurumi ones cause i make them and sell them at the school's craft fair, i already have "Kyuuto! Japanese Crafts! Amigurumi", other books that have patterns for cute little things or just cute things in general, and i like books like the charmed knits book (i already have that tho)

my collection of needles and hooks is pretty good but i'm just now starting my dpn collection i think what i have right now is size 4 and size 8, oo a holder for what i have would be kinda cool, even more if its homemade, i have the long needles tho so i can never find a holder for them that zips all the way up

yarn, ooo i love yarn, pretty, soft, new, i love it all!!:D

i love candy, not really chocolate but will still eat it

tea is good as long as its not a fruity tea, im more into green tea and the like, ooo and i love chai that you pour into milk (if that makes sense), i dont drink coffee at all, i love mugs, i love love love deep mugs because then i can put soup in them as well as tea

anything homemade, be it food or a craft:D

anything small and cute!!:D

hmm... not sure whatelse, so hopefully that is good for now....
