Back and Forth

Well, I'm slowly but surely getting used to my short short hair. I don't know that I would go so far as to say I like it....or that I'll be putting any pictures up anytime soon. But it's growing on me (no pun intended).

Anyway, after an eight day stretch of work, I finally have a day off. It's been filled with leisure and productivity. I've recently learned to sew on my mom's old sewing machine she gave me. It's been such a blast! I never realized how fun it could be. So far I have altered a skirt that has always been way too big on me and I've turned two ugly vintage dresses into vintage treasures. One looked like an old lady muumuu night-dress. I brought it up above the knees and turned the slouchy, wing-sleeves into cropped short sleeves. It's pretty adorable now. The other is a vintage Banana Republic, cream maxi dress. I took off the sleeves, brought in the top part (to accommodate my modest bust) and brought it up a bit to be a midi instead. Now I just need the sun to shine a bit warmer and I can wear it.

After that I did some cleaning while listening to this among other songs. I took a little stroll down memory lane as well. I had an old YouTube account that held a bunch of old college video's. Most of them are just my friends and me being ridiculous. There's a part of me that misses it, and another part that is happy to just be looking back on it. But while I'm reminiscing, I might as well take you along with me. Most of these are with one of my best friends, Rachel.


We always managed to come up with the most...interesting...photoshoots.

 It was a time in my life for great road trips. And kidnapping friends on their birthday.


And then there was Battle of the Bands. We made this band for this occasion. We even included one of our professors. Our name was Rach, Rach, and the Funky Bunch.

That's all I have for now. Looking back just a little. I'll have a post soon that is more current, I'm sure. But for now, I hope this was at least a little entertaining and a bit of a closer look at your host.

Cheers.
