I made this last summer and intended to put something in the empty frame, but at this point I kind of like it how it is.


Last summer? Old, anyway.


New!


My new favorite - half the beads were pass-alongs someone else didn't like. Score!


A few months ago - don't think I've worn it - but I've always wanted a lariat.


I bought a bunch of bobby pins with pads, which works out well for my recent obsession with buying cabochons but having nothing to do with them.

I just finished a graphic design class at BCC I mean Bellevue College, which was a load of fun! Also a TON of work. I designed 3 brochures, 2 on Bali and 1 as a personal cookbook (they said my food photography needs improvement...fair enough.) For my themes, I picked an ecotourism Bali brochure (12pp), an "adventure" packet aimed at college age kids (8pp) (one spread below), and a fifties-themed cookbook featuring dishes ranked by the amount of dirty dishes they generate.



I have been utterly exhausted from this class for the past 2-3 weeks (it was a 6 week class). But now that it's done, I have time to start a new project! ;D

My new project is going to be coming up with a curriculum to teach myself more about different varieties of ecology, get back into scientific reading, try and figure out if grad school in ecology is something I want, and what flavor of ecology if so. Also I need to take the GRE, so studying for that will be tied in. Wheeee!
