I wrote two full pages left handed today for no reason other then to do it.

One of those things...
I love these types of stories and when I say these I mean stories that are insignificant but stick with you. I've had a lot of stuffed animals in my life, I still own a good number of them, and I can tell you who got them for me or how. There is one that stands out to have a bit more meaning, it is a ty beanie baby with the tag ripped off. It was given to me by a little girl, when I was a little myself, that I only knew one day as far as I can remember. She was shockingly generous. This cat always made me want to pick it up when I looked at it, pet it in some way, even now, at least 10 years later, the affect still stays.
When I was in the 6th grade my daycare had a little project. We would send a stuffed animal around the US in the mail, have pictures taken and have stories written about the day they spend with it. I kept the book but it got left behind in my move.
This is just what stuck with me, a weird sentiment about something not important. I can't remember the little girl at all but I know she is apart of my life anyway.

WIP-Bird
I've been trying to study for my Human Growth and Development test on Monday. I'm having quite a bit of trouble with the names, something I've always had trouble with, and it is taking me away from making things. It is necessary but I don't have a lot for this post.

New Scarf
This scarf is less time consuming but more problematic then the last. I seem to always end up with an inconsistent number of stitches. I do enjoy what I have so far, none the less, it is just so soft. This photo is way brighter then the actual scarf, not that it is dull.
The plushie I had started but run out of stuffing for has been resumed, I did not get far however.

Clustered Shell Scarf
Yesterday, for whatever reason, the internet was down and the phone went a bit nuts. In order to make up for it, or at least pretend too, I have a big project showing for this post. This scarf was started right before finals last semester. I've gotten a ton of complements for it, which I can't be more thankful for, it make all the effort seem even more worth wile. It was a simple pattern to do but the yarn was very small making it a big undertaking.
Hook: E/4-3.50 mm
Yarn: 7 1/2 rolls of Luster Sheen
Time: Around 40 hours

Bad (ish?) Day
It was another day where I didn't come home for 12 hours. Probably going to happen a lot more often with having 3 classes in one day. Where I got some more crochet thread, in dark red, pink, and white, as well as stuffing I still screwed up a bit. I had a quiz in math and forgot my calculator. Worse yet is I had a 2-4 hour wait and forgot my drawing pens. I didn't bring a crochet hook ether. Biology was yet again, a pain in my ass. A little over 2 hours of the same things I heard last biology class. I should have just started reading for another class, I was in the back I probably gotten away with it.
The only thing that really saved me was the library giving away old books. I got a nice stack of them. The books have a lot of pictures in them and make for pretty good reference books for artists.
I would have felt bad if I didn't include some type of drawing. Even though I have an English assignment to still do I took an hour out to draw my little bat again.
With enough tinkering he almost looks like digital work.
