Avi in commemoration of π day which was Wednesday~

So this past week was like a blur.  Got together with a friend, went to Indy for sushi, made a Pie for Pi day, and pretty much wasted the rest of my time pixeling and online.  And I haven’t started my homework or taxes.  Procrastination is not the smartest idea.  What I did not do this spring break: read more than a page out of my new Javascript book, burn new CDs, play in the CBT for Spirit Tales (I hope to change this before Tuesday), clean my room, finish the Rilakkuma bento origami set.  More time please? ; -;

At the start of spring break, I started a thread on Vdex making pixel “Pokewalkers” and didn’t really expect it to take off.  So far I’ve made 22 of them (not counting 2 I re-did) and 2 other sprites (a trainer sprite and something using a base I made) plus “extras” for the Pokewalkers.  My eyes hurt >.<  Don’t get me wrong, I love doing it but I have other things I need and want to do.  I guess it’s just because I hate making people wait which is something I just have to deal with.

I’m dreading work tomorrow, we’re booked for parties and we usually get a few drunk people come in.  >.<  Well, I guess there’s a silver lining, I should stay at least 5 hours.  I need to find a better job :c

I hate to leave it on such a depressing note, so the pie I made is delicious!  It’s Sour Cream Apple with a crumb topping~

About trying to get back into polymer clay, not sure if that’s gonna happen anymore.  I’m finding that it’s more difficult and frustrating than I remember.  I may give something easy a go before quitting, but I’m doubting that right now.  Made a better Bulbasaur, first one wasn’t that easy on the eyes.

The better Bulbasaur with 2 Pokeballs

I really want to make a Charmander, but I don’t want to get really frustrated.  *sigh*  I’ll figure it out.

Trying to teach my mom how to crochet did not work out.  She got frustrated, I got frustrated so we called it quits.She can chain just fine but for whatever reason her stitches get messed up.

On the topic of making things, I attempted a fruit tart last week.  I was pleasantly surprised with how it turned out and how easy it was.  The only thing I’d change is how the custard is made.  I’d combine the yolk mixture and milk earlier because I found that the yolk cooks too quickly with simmering milk.  Kinda how creme brulee is made.

It was yummy!

Worked a fair amount last week, 3 hours Thursday and 7 on Saturday.  I know, I need another job.  Usually I’ll get 4 hours a week.

Ok, I just need to mention this: I swear there’s a ghost in the house today.  Been hearing noises at the back door, metal clanging in the kitchen (and nothing moved), and various small noises everywhere else.  No, it’s not the cat.  It’s been freaking me out and the fact that I’m by myself doesn’t help.
