So, as you can see (if anyone still reads these), we are pretty much no longer posting anymore. RK and I are still friends, but it is hard for anyone to maintain a closer-than-glue relationship from opposite corners of the country. We are still perfectly wonderful friends, but we are friends of faith that we remain that way. We have spoken 2 or 3 times in the last year, though I do not believe CBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02639334469003034996noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4816083575943228422.post-3861723134197099432013-01-29T16:55:00.000-05:002013-01-29T16:55:37.086-05:00Granny Square Pattern
These granny squares are inspired by these granny squares. I changed the stitches because I didn't find a really tricky stitch necessary. So this is a simplified version of these. (If you know how to do the bobble stitch, please click the above link and make your grannies from Attic24's pattern!) I also ended it at the third layer. They will turn out more square if you continue with a fourth CBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02639334469003034996noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4816083575943228422.post-28674611881960238812013-01-29T16:51:00.002-05:002013-01-29T16:51:46.560-05:00Amigurumi, Granny Sqaures, and Sewing

Six friends went out on a 'hunt for the apocalypse,' just for fun, but none of them came back. This is the footage from their camera.
Just kidding! This is an improv movie my friends (Kelli, Gabbi, Scarlett, Marissa, Briella) and I did while on our hunt for the apocalypse. It was a lot of fun to make, and I love our plot! We did this while at Gabbi's house for our apocalypse party.

The haunted house was on Oct 27, 2012. I had a bunch of stuff to do after that with drama so I couldn't write about it yet. Anyway, it was amazing! My whole schpeil was about no one ever bringing my grave flowers, and how I was so upset that they were going to Grandmother's House (the plot of the HH was that they were going to Grandmother's House) instead of visiting me!

I am crocheting a fox right now! The creator of the pattern I am using has asked for it not to be shared anywhere, so I won't be posting that (but you can see it here).

So, Slenderman is this monster based off of a German tale. He is really pale with no real facial features, he wears a business suit, has really long arms that he can change the length of at will, and tentacles. He lurks in the shadows and does not make any noise. He has been found (in the story, not in real life) with dead children in trees (ew, I know!).

I have started playing piano again after 2 or 3 years! I am having my dad reteach me. My first song right now is a 'Level Two' of Fur Elise. :) It is a lot of fun! But I still get the low A and low E confused! I am gonna get it soon, though! I can't wait to get better at piano because it offers a wider range, I guess? And just a different technique than guitar/ukulele. :D
