となりのトトロ
RAWR. The procrastinator is finally posting this up!
(Quite sadly it doesn't look THAT spectacular. xD)
Photos under the cut.
Pattern by
heavens_hellcat ; I used the same yarn as the one I used for the moogles (Moda Vera's Cupcake yarn). (:
You can see that I'm not exactly very good at sewing/stitching things up still...
This is my favourite photo! :D
And this is the back view.
Knitting/crocheting aside, I just started reading A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula K. Le Guin two days ago and I'm finishing it already. D: I ordered the rest of the books from the quartet (but not the other two that are part of the Earthsea series) but they will probably arrive in ten days at the earliest. X_X Like other more 'epic' fantasy series, the starting was a little hard to get into, because of all the locations and trying to understand the world description. I kept flipping back to the map page to see where on earth the island was, and although I hate doing that, I also love looking at maps at the same time. Earthsea has a map that is dotted with so many islands and names, it's fascinating. I want to watch the Studio Ghibli film version of the series (ゲド戦記) but unfortunately they only have the English-dubbed version online. D: Rawr. Shall hunt for the DVD!
And yesterday, I went out with Vanessa, whom I haven't seen in a while, and gasp. She gave me the prettiest thing ever from Hong Kong Disneyland. I took photos of it but I haven't transferred the photos yet. Will post them up another time!
We registered for modules on Wednesday and it was a bit of a mess and a gamble. I think my holiday reading is over because I saw the book lists and I have absolutely no idea how I am going to read so many Victorian novels along with other novels and Linguistics readings. The worst thing is that I either have to appeal for Bilingualism or sit in front of the laptop and pounce on a free slot during the first week of school.
On a last note, Daiso rocks everybody's socks. <3
