It's Wednesday!


Alright! I work today (which is fine, I like my job) But then...I have TWO DAYS OFF IN A ROW!

I know, that's pretty normal for you 9-5ers, but for me, that's pretty much a miracle.

So.....lets see....what am I going to do with all that free time?!

Well...Thursday my bf might be flying back home for 4 days (I'm gonna miss him T_T) But, if he's not, then harry potter will definitely happen. If he's gone, well, I have a lot of stuff to do. Bank stuff, student loan stuff, Etsy stuff, cleaning stuff. It's really hard to do that stuff when he's here. Boys are so distracting!

Ok, so I don't have any followers yet. How am I supposed to make people follow my blog?

Anyway, I just got a package from Japan with one of my favorite magazines in it! It's an issue of Kera Maniacs! A really great fashion magazine. I love it.

Special thanks to Georgina for sending it to me! woot woot!

My first treasury!

Ok, I'm pretty stoked! I just got into my first Etsy treasury!

check it out here!

First post, a little about me!

Alright, a blog.

Everyone on Etsy says it's a good idea and it's good for sales, and all the teams and such that I'm in have one, so I figured, why not.

I guess a little about me first. I grew up about an hour outside of Halifax, Nova Scotia.
I went to college for my intro course in communication art with the hopes that it would lead to my acceptance to a graphic design program. It did, but I decided that design wasn't for me because it was too competitive. I changed schools. Went to university to get a degree in Asian studies. I wanted to teach in Japan and needed a degree. So, I did two yeas in uni, then an internship teaching in Japan, and then 2 more years of uni, found out just weeks before graduation that I wasn't able to graduate. I got fed up with it all. I didn't really want to teach in Japan anymore anyways, I loved it there, but teaching was not my thing. So I packed it all up and moved myself to Toronto.

And here I am.

I'm starting school in September for fashion design. I know, I know. It's going to be just as competitive, if not more so, than graphic design. But I was way too young then to know what I wanted and how the world worked. I feel fresh and ready for this challenge!

So now I'm working full time at a punk/goth clothing shop and loving it! And I'm selling some hand made stuff on Etsy just for fun!
