Oh God, today was a great day. I woke up and started looking up blade tutorials, thinking maaaaaybe dad might help me start the project. Well instead of doing that, I went and had traditional geisha lunch at Qdoba with Victor and Heather. After that, we went to Walmart, Michaels, and the cool fabric store down by where I get my hair did. Today I bought black cord and beads for my Ezio necklace and rivets, fun foam, and this beaaaauuuuutttiiiifffulllll pleather Heather found. We were looking on one aisle of leathers, and she wandered off to a second one and as soon as I saw it, I fell in love. It was perfect for a female assassin and it matches my boots pretty damn spot on! I love love love love LOVE that pleather!
All I need to do to finish the vambrace is to attach belts to the underside and sculpt the metal things on it. Ideally, the blade will fit snugly underneath and the belts can adjust for it whether or not I end up making it or not. Ha ha, when I was making the vambrace, I was like, Jesus, this thing is tiny. And then I remembered I'm a tiny person and this will be funny looking. But my belt buckle is coming along nicely and I just have to add on the details, paint over the gold on the gem's sticker, and slap some belts on it! DONE!
I felt so accomplished today. I really love crafting, and I got to play with all new things today! Prop making is really fun, and after I finish my assassin costume, I'll start Lady Subaru's wings. MORE PROPS. Sewing's cool, but crafting is better! And then after dinner, I washed my car and damn, that's one pretty looking Honda. It's all the under tree parking I do that rapes the car :/ After that, Shake's with dad and then home to get crafty! And after I ran out of things to craft, I came up and started cleaning out drawers. I cleaned out one junk drawer and reorganized two red drawers. It feels good! Getting shit together feels so good.
I found some interesting artifacts, though. I used to write down cute texts I loved from various flirting boys back in the day, thinking that I'd always have those sweet words forever. Lolololoolololl, boys last about as long as I could finish a book. But those notes don't mean a thing anymore. I've burned some of them over time in a fit of teen angst, but now who cares. I was young, and I wanted a lot more than I would have ever been able to have. I was fed so many lies and went along with things so much longer than I should have. I guess that's always been my downfall, where I'd let my heart go way faster than my head.
Blehhh. Time for bed, I think. I'm tired of cleaning things out.
