Wut up.

Greetings from Ft. Worth!

I find it amusing that the boyfrannn, his brother, and I went on Spring Break to see the beach and the following happened:

-We traveled through Ft. Worth, Texas.
-We stopped to spend the night at my Maw-Maw's house in Louisiana.
-We went to our final destination of Gulf Shores, Alabama.
-We went in the ocean for 20 minutes.
-We missed Texas so much that we decided to come back for the rest of the trip. X)

So, here we are!

I've visited Texas several times before and am highly considering moving here someday. :)


So, anyway, the prompts are going good! I like how I'm being loosey-goosey with them and not stressing (because, this week, I'm only drawing pictures, not crafting).

Big shout out to Frances for featuring me here:

Thanks so much! :)

We return to Colorado in two days!
Expect a video on Sunday~!


Peace out, girl scouts! <3

'Let it be Known' Saturday 3: Turtles and Tortoises

There ya go.

Please think of some punishments for me to do and put into another video. :)

Today's 'let it be known' is...

Tortoises and turtles are awesome.

Evidence to prove such a claim:


  • The first animals around the moon were tortoises. Those BAMFs! (Google that shiz.)


  • Soft shell turtles are fast as effing lightning. (Maybe a tiny bit slower.)


  • I was face-to-face with a snapping turtle (named Myrtle of course) who lived in the ditch by my Louisiana home. I was a little girl and I looked upside-down into a canal drain and there he was. We looked at each other at the same exact moment and I ran like eff out of there! POINT BEING, he didn't bite my face off. Which makes him EXTREME! >:D But with a good heart. <3
  • This kid pays proper homage to turtles because THEY ARE AWESOME.

String of Emotion

*This is one of those rare serious blogs.

This is my piece for the "strand/thread/string/whatever of emotion" prompt.

The idea is to make something that symbolizes something that gave you one emotion which eventually turned into another.

I will explain how my piece fits into this.

This may be silly to some, so feel free to stop reading at any time if you cannot handle the absurdity of such an impact. ;)

Emotion 1: Disgust

When I was 10, "One Piece" the anime (Japanese cartoon) aired in America, in English.

This is a series that has been running for over 10 years now and is somewhere around halfway finished.

To dumb it down, the show is about pirates with super powers.

The drawing here is Luffy (loo-fee) the main character.

I saw the commercials and thought it was the STUPIDEST, UGLIEST thing I had ever seen.

Emotion 2: Completed and Utter OBSESSION

One night, flipping through channels, I caught the last 5 minutes of an episode.

It was beautiful.

It was destiny.

I fell in love.

I swore, at least 3 times, to God Himself, that I would someday become a pirate! (Which I shall someday fulfill somehow...)

I drew it, I role-played it, I wrote about it, I bought the action figures, I watched the VHS recordings I had made-- time and time again.

I could spend hours expressing how OBSESSED I was with this beautiful, glorious piece of work.

Emotion 3: Gratitude

Only two people know this, and now I'm extending this bit of information to you:
In 8th grade, I cried every. single. night.

One Piece was my escape. I'd sit in my closet, sobbing and begging God to let me wake up in that world...

One Piece was a bond. I made a project about One Piece in Freshman year, which my now-boyfriend noticed.
He crushed on me for two years because we were two of the rare few that had even heard of the show.
The reason we are together is because of One Piece.

So, to Oda-sensei, the writer (it was originally [and still is] a comic or "manga") I owe so much...

One Piece boggled my mind.
One Piece pulled me out of a horrible piece of my life.
One Piece allowed me to meet my future husband (happy 22 months, by the way, babe!)


So ignore the watermark and enjoy a fan-made music video of the greatest, most-touching anime/manga/movies I have ever been blessed enough to witness. :)

'Let it be Known' Saturday

Today's 'let it be known' is that I now have a "dang fanceh cameruh."
My mother let me borrow her beautiful, huge camera to take some pictures of some keycahsin I've made (which I shall show off at a later date).

Today, I'd like to thank Recycled Crafts for featuring my plastic flowers!

PHAIL.

Heck yeah, there was no video today. <3

Err, yesterday. It's 12:22 AM. :x

I'm in college.

I'm negligent, okay?! D:

I'm staying up late to write a paper about a subject I picked randomly a few hours ago.

What??

I ONLY had 3 weeks to write this...

Don't judge meeeeee.

Soory.

Many things contributed to this week of laziness, but I shan't bore you with the details.

In this video, I makeup for this week's missing days!
