Just wanted to pop in for a lil bit. Right now the camera’s being fixed, so I can’t upload the small things I finished.
But today the sewing machine is supposed to be coming, and there are two crochet projects that need lining. 😉 Can’t wait to experiment with it.

Just submitted my final portfolio and did my presentation! Now just gotta pray everything’s okay grade-wise and then impatiently wait for graduation in 2 weeks. 🙂 Btw, I finally got an e-mail from the school district saying that I would be getting an invite to the job fair!
To celebrate, I rushed over to Joanns (like a 5min drive from the campus) after the presentations were over, and bought a couple of goodies. Namely, enough yarn to finish the pink afghan, TLC Essentials in Sandstone (like a butterscotch color) to try another FBB, and a skein of Fisherman’s wool yarn. I picked up some kool-aid in cherry and orange (:D!) and headed home.
So…either tonight or tomorrow I’ll try dying my own wool.. 😀 Can’t wait.

I’ve been finding little bits of time to get my new WIP done (not the afghan, lol). It should be completed either tonight or sometime tomorrow 😀 Can’t wait to get it done.
On Friday, when I’m at the uni, I’ll be making a short stop to Joanns (Ok, wait, maybe a longer stop. It’s hard to pull oneself out of that place) to pick up a couple more skeins for the afghan. It’s a slight pain in the butt to have the afghan yarn available at a Joann’s about 1 hour away, but oh well.
While working on this presentation, my mind keeps slipping to the weekend and…yes, freedom. No more portfolio, no big presentation, no lesson plans.. I’m kinda eyeing that striped SWS bag (pic below) to finish, as well as making an attempt at this shrug, and yes the pink afghan that’s been pushed aside.
Ok, back to work.. See you!
The End April 5, 2007

Wow, on the way home, I was thinking about how bittersweet today was. Y’see, it was my last day of the internship, and I had to say goodbye to everyone.. The ladies my teacher and I eat lunch with, the woman I did parent pickup with, and especially the kids… Some say the hardest part of being a teacher is dealing with the parents, but dunno, saying goodbye to the students was pretty tough.
These past couples days, I had to reduce my role from full-time intern to just an assistant, so that the students would have an easier time transitioning back to their teacher. I promised them I would come back and visit sometimes, and my teacher will be sending me a class picture when it comes in. Cleaning out my desk felt weird, packing away my belongings in my bag felt even weirder.
I’ll miss ’em all. ;(
Ok, that wasn’t much of an intro.. March 17, 2007

Heh, the first post here wasn’t quite the introduction it should’ve been.
So. Backtrack time.
My name’s Andrea, but sometimes I go by weird names like Andie and game names like Hesper. I like to consider myself a pretty optimistic/positive/realistic person, about 75% of the time. My time’s mainly spent doing my final teaching internship, and focus is on graduation this April. But when there is available free time, I spend it either crocheting, jewelry making, reading, or gaming.
This journal’s just full of blurbs that have no real importance whatsoever, however I do wish to post craft projects. So as this place starts to fill up, hope you start enjoying your stay.
Lack of caffine.. March 17, 2007

..Makes writing a longer post impossible.
I’m just feeling so dead tonight, surfing the net for nothing in particular, getting nothing accomplished. Well, I might crochet my afghan a little, there’s a fresh new skein just waiting to be started soon.
…On second thought, I went on Morpheus to download some more mp3’s. Here’s the new additions.
Chris Daughtry – Its Not Over
Chris Daughtry – Gone
Nickelback – If Everyone Cared
Paul Oakenfold – Hypnotised
Tenth Planet – Ghosts (Vincent De Moor mix)
