Got a tablet for Christmas and I’ve been drawing lady busts all day - here’s a small sample.  I’m kind of obsessed with candy colored hair.

Guess I’m a little stumped on what to draw - so much noodling and doodling. Any suggestions?

Lately, I’d just like to move out,

and live completely on my own, without roommates, in my own apartment.  I don’t mind living at home, and spending time with my mom and brother is always nice, but I really can’t wait to live-in and decorate a place of my own. I’ve already started collecting ideas for it, and I don’t even see it in the horizon yet.  I think it has been exacerbated by the fact that I am constantly on Pinterest, love looking at decorating magazines, and have been at Home Goods like 5 times in the past month.

First, I just need some steady, mediocrely paying employment.

hah.

my apologies for the awkward photo tumblr, but I wanted to show you 2 things:

  1. look at that outrageous bruise! It’s a couple days old now so it’s starting to heal, but I got that from slamming my arm on the edge of my car door in a place that is usually covered by a rubber piece (for good reason, apparently.) but has since fallen off.
  2. I wanted to show off these awesome bracelets I just MADE, ‘cause I’m bored and unemployed. YAY!  (if you’re interested in making these - links below (if you’re too lazy to make one and would like me to make one, click HERE))
    Hex nut bracelet
    Colored cord bracelet 
    They are both hella easy and super cheap to make.

YAY!

maybe I’ll make crafting posts more regularly? I do love me some crafting. 

ed. note: in the hex chord directions, they say to use 1/4” sized hex nuts, but I bought the next size smaller and I might even buy a smaller size in future bracelet making-unless you are using a thicker cord/rope (i used 12 pieces of embroidery thread for the bracelet (4 strands for each part of the braid))

cue dress summer. Dresses/skirts, all day every day.

Well, I do believe that I am having heartburn for the first time in my life.

this is certainly unpleasant, and I would like very much never to have it again.

just popped like 4 tums, and constantly drinking water. 

I didn’t want to sleep at all, so this is just great (sarcasm)

god this is awful.

Updated new work on my website, including stuff from my senior show!

I need your help.

I am currently taking a screen printing class, which I love.  We are currently doing a mixed project, meaning that it is not only screen prints, but can include drawing, painting, basically anything.  Above is what I have already. (apologies for the crappy quality, these were taken with my iPod touch since my camera is being lent out) 

the trouble is, is that what I have now (read below for description if you can’t make it out) is all I had in mind when I started it, and I need something else, probably a screen printed element.  I just don’t want to draw away from my painstaking drawings (my hand is killing me) and I don’t want it to look unfinished.

it is currently a 16x16 square(i might cut down,but the top part will definitely be cut off) I then screenprinted in clear a damask-like background, similar to this one and then using a resist method, scrubbed in process yellow ink.  I then drew with a rapidograph pen each unique structure.

so my question is, (even if it’s a color suggestion, or a vague idea) thanks in advance…what should I do next?

Having Yogurt and party peanuts for breakfast…

Sounds like someone has to go to the grocery store.

All of my music is gone.

My iPod somehow got corrupted, and my computer got its hard drive erased on Friday because of an unrelated issue, and now my almost 4000 songs are completely gone.  I’ve got some of it on CDs, but nothing compared to what I had.  I lost all my playlists, which doesn’t seem like a big deal, but there were lists of songs that I listened to all the time and won’t ever really get back.  I don’t know what I’m going to do.  This is not something to get so upset over because there are so many things that could be worse, but I just can’t believe that all my music, that I’ve had for so long, is gone. I feel sick.

If you have it in your heart and want to help me rebuild what i’ve lost I would be so grateful.  My email address is Maggiemaemary@gmail.com and whatever you can send whether it is one, ten or 100 songs it will totally make my day.

Thanks to a friend of mine, I now have a Dropbox.  If you have one too, my email is Maggiemaemary@gmail.com.

Happy Halloween Kids, I’m a little drunk and I just got back from a friend’s Halloween Party and it was totally fun.

Totally.
I ended up dressing as a mix between a housewife on acid and Ms. Frizzle: the Teen years.
It all came down to the jacket (picture above, which is not a good picture of me per se (‘cause I was already redfaced from drinking for a bit), but it does feature the jacket nicely.) which was the basis for my whole ensemble.

Nothing like a 100% polyester jacket you bought for $7 to make you feel like a classy bitch.

Goodnight/morning tumblr!!
