Being home makes me feel crafty. I want to create something, anything, everything! I found a
website that is alot kind of like ebay but all homemade items. Okay its not really like ebay because you just buy the stuff there isn't any bidding. Anyway. I spend a lot of my time just clicking through all the stuff people are selling, most of the time thinking to myself "i could totally do that". I really do. I want to screen print random things on shirts that are already decorated and call it retro. I want to create odd fuzzy stuff animals. I want to use all the sculpey I own to make little trinkets for the holidays. I want to have my own pottery wheel and create bowls, cups, vases, plates, platters, candle holders, and piggy banks, lots of piggy banks. I want to stitch one word phrases onto pillows. I want paint on old posters. I want to paint on random fabrics. I want to print buttons with fun sayings. I want to make dolls that have a fun sense of humor to them. I want... to be crafty.
Tomorrow I go to State College to hang out with Lauren for the first time in at least a year. Being there will make me wish I had gone to Penn State instead, not because of the school, not because of the friends, but because of the feeling of the town. The little stories everywhere, the stories that are actually in walking distance from the campus. Imagine that. Stores you walk to. A main street, everything you want in walking distance and the big stuff you actually need like groceries and target are just a few miles up the road, but thats okay because you buy to much there to walk it home anyhow. Aww yes. I'm ready to get out of Ridgway. I should have brought more than homework home. I might have then actually got something accomplished.
