I really need to do something with my summer
...or the rest of what's left of it. I've dont pretty much nothing productive with my summer except go to Brooklyn on a mission trip and (I kind of count this) reading the last Harry Potter book in about 20.5 hours spread over two days. For quite a while now I've been wanting to actually do something that I love, which is sewing, and mix it with another thing I hope to within a year come to be a part of, cosplay. There's a costume I want to sew. I've got the pattern, after a long time I finally got the fabric. I've had that for about two weeks. I couldn't get up the motivation to get off my ass and away from the computer...well, I guess I need the computer, but I wasn't usuing it right. I'm finally getting around to trying to find everything else I need to make the costume. Number one on the list is zippers. I can't even make the main dress without the zippers. And since they're a bitch to find in any stores, I have to order them off the net, which I'll do tomorrow once I get more money in my checking account. But it'll still be at least 3 days until the zippers get here. Then it's trying to overcome the hurdle that I'm a complete novice with this by myself and I have to get over the fear of screwing it up. Unfortunately it'll probably really peeve me if the dress doesn't turn out like I want it to...and it probably won't turn out like I want it to. Oh well, in those days in between I'm going to try to get back into beading. And I should probably work on finishing the scarf I was making like a year ago before the cold weather gets here. So much to do and here I am always complaining that I'm bored. Damn, I need to get some fucking motivation. Okay, onto other topics.
Yikes! Orientation is about 4 weeks away. I still have stuff pertainig to college to do, though luckily we got some of that taken care of today. I'm hopefully going to be getting my "dream computer" within about three weeks. I'm nervous about orientation. I'm going to be forced to actually work with strangers. And then to make it worse....they're throwing a dance in at the end of it. It's going to feel like middle school all over again-_- *sigh* But this whole experience will be good for me. I wanted to make new friends...maybe meet a guy.
Well, I'm not sure what else to put on here right now. My life has consisted of work this weekend and sitting on the computer wasting my brain away. I'm going to try very hard to change that in college by spending lots of time in the library working on my homework. I guess I'll check back in when I feel the need to. Good-bye.
