"i can't, i have finals." part 2.

so once again it's the end of the quarter and things are gettin' hectic! i've been super busy with researching cool things, layouts of those cool things, embroidering till my hands cramp, putting bleach on stuff, ruining perfectly good silk with markers and drawing horses all over everything, but now all of these projects are due! ah! so i'm going to have to take a lil break from blogging. however, i will leave you with this, the only youtube that i have ever 'favorited'. enjoy!

ps. i would also like to say hello to all my new members and thank joanna goddard for her wonderful blog-land support! hip-hip-hooray for the internet.
