I wish there were more hours in a day

I had two back-to-back exams last Wednesday so I was really drained last week. Fortunately, I didn't have any school this Monday (Christopher Columbus Day). Being able to have a few days off from school without having to catch up on reading/homework/exams is so relaxing! On top of that, I got a 93 and a 102.5 Everything is looking good! :)

I even had time to get started on a project that I'm making for my boss's birthday. It's another dog, but a different version. Now that I think about it though, I don't even remember if I ever posted up the first one? Oh well. If I didn't it looks just like the white kitty I made, but as a dog.

Hopefully, by the end of this week, I will have finished it.

Already the end of September

Is it just me, or did the month go by really fast?

I was able to get off work early today which was great because I am reminded of how GREAT it is to have free time. I really wish it would stop raining though. It's such a drag and makes me feel gloomy. Anyway, for those of you who do not know, I work full time and I'm taking two classes per semester right now (just started this semester). I actually have two tests coming up on the 6th, but it has been a really long time since I've been able to settle down, relax and write in my blog. One entry won't hurt right?? So much for blogging every once in a while

It's amazing how fast life passes by as you get older. I remember thinking how long I thought summer was when I was younger. Boy, I was such a silly kid. I'd take those summers back any day.

Anyway, that's my rant for the day. Keep on crafting!

Project: Crochet Bunny

Bunny bun bun,

I know it has been a while since I last updated. I've been super busy with work and on top of that, class started so I won't have too much spare time to craft. Since I won't have a whole lot of time to update, I will do my best in writing a little something here and there whether it is a daily rant, a helpful hint, or a mini project?

That being said, please feel free to post comments and I will do my best to answer them! :)

Anyway, I just noticed that I haven't posted up this cute little bunny that I made a few weeks (or months?) ago. I don't exactly know what was holding me up, but here it is now!

Cute? I hope you liked it!

Project: Crochet Luffy (One Piece)

Looks like I'm doing alright in keeping up with my blog. It has only been 5 days since my last post!

Anyway, not much has been new. I've been extremely busy at work. There's so much to do, but so little time! On top of that, school is going to start soon for me, which means I won't have much time to craft anymore.. :(

So I'm trying to make use of my time as much as possible and decided to make my boyfriend a complete set of One Piece characters! It's one of his favorite manga/anime series, so I'm sure he'll love them! First up is Luffy, the leader of the crew!!

First human! Not too bad, right? What do you think? I hope you like him! Sanji is next!

Stay tuned!

Prototype: Crochet Sackboy (Little Big Planet)

Ok... it hasn't been too long since I last updated, which is good! I finished Sackboy finally! He has probably been sitting around my room for a month or more... I know. One of the reasons for the delay is because I'm actually not too crazy about this one because I was making him off the top of my head. Since I never played Little Big Planet and was making this on the train, I didn't realize the picture I had in my head was wrong. On top of that, was he always knitted??? Whoops. I don't really know how to knit so he looks a bit different. Oh well! It is just a prototype after all right? (Actually almost everything here is!! hah!)

Here he is!!

So the differences are.... He actually has stumps for feet instead of actual feet. His eyes are felt instead of buttons. His zipper is gray, not white (in my defense, I didn't have any gray felt). His head is not round. He's supposed to be knit, not crocheted. His body is more cylinder, not body-shaped... and I didn't add any stitch detail.

Pretty much everything is wrong huh??

This is how Sackboy is supposed to know for those who are curious and do not know:

Isn't he so cute?! Too bad I butchered him! Maybe when I'm feeling up for it again, I'll try him again.

Facebook Fan Page

So, I started a Facebook fan page a while back, but got too lazy to actually do anything with it. I finally set it all up today, but I still need to figure out what to do with it. I'm hoping it will help me generate some traffic to my blog and maybe even get some followers.

Just in case you were wondering, the link to my fan page is here.

Now, I'm one more step closer to getting some products out and ready for sale. I'm still in the process of establishing myself and experimenting with crochet. It will definitely be a busy time for me this year and next. I have not yet set foot into any of the craft-oriented communities yet, but I do plan on doing so. In addition, I  probably won't be selling anything until later this year, or until I am more confident of my work. Constructive feedback is very welcome at this point. I would love to hear what you like or dislike.

Anyways, I have a lot of works in progress, and I still have not forgotten about my last post. It is getting pretty late, so I will work on that last project I was talking about tomorrow. I have a few other things that are almost ready for posting!

Stay tuned! More good stuff are in production!

So I've decided to give sewing another chance...

... because I gave crochet another chance after years of neglect.

It would be unbelievably awesome if I can sew as well as I crochet! This way, I can spare myself the headache from finding clothes that I like and clothes that fit and look good on me. Wishful thinking, I know... but I like to be optimistic about it :)

Anyway, here are some fun pictures!

For my oldest sister. And yes, I make her a lot of bears! It looks similar to the first one.. but the head is actually smaller and it's really, really tiny. Like tiny as in 1.5 inches short.

Next up are my beloved chickies!

Hehehehehe. They're just so much fun to play with.

Yes. I know. Nothing new. You've already seen them...  but they're just TOO FREAKING CUTE!! Just looking at them makes me happy. I'm making a whole army by the way. Yes. It will be amazing. They are already prepared as I type this. All I need to do is cut out their eyes, beaks, cheeks, and feet, then glue it on and they'll be done!

......... Oh, but I did forget to mention that I hate doing that part. I've been putting it off for a long time. Like... I think I have 20 of the balls ready to be assembled long. *Siiiiigh* Maybe tomorrow. If I do get to that tomorrow, I will have another surprise!

*Hint: He's brown, small and has fingers.

That's all for today! Thanks for reading!
