For those who haven't, meet the family favorite.

Our pug Jako.

necklace

Finally finished my first necklace! Unfortunately, the extra long string I used was still not long enough, so the necklace is shorter than the desired length. I can still wear it, but because the ends have to be tied, it's harder to put on.

A lot of improvements still have to be made with regard to the ends. Been itching to use the locks I have but since I'm using a lot of string, it's so difficult to put them on. Hoping I can make some improvements in the next one!

free your mind

Here

Monday night thoughts driving me crazy. Got to FREE MY MIND from the big and small thoughts and worries going on and on and on.

- THESIS. THESIS. THESIS. How do I make this work?!
- Time management. Meetings and work and practicum and thesis documenting and school
- Attending Preview's Best Dressed Ball this Saturday because I took part in shooting for the video. What sporty chic attire to wear? I'm outfit-less and panicking. My retreat before the event is giving me less time to prepare. Help!
- Practicum
- Money money money. Always the problem!
- Some personal problems

Now I'm a bit relaxed. Thoughts are much more chaotic in my head. But when I listed them down one by one, I felt a bit better knowing that these are my only problems. Could have been worse.

Happy second day of July!

more bracelets

Made more bracelets the other day! Unfortunately I've been so pressed with time that I haven't been able to finish some and make new ones. Hoping for more work free days to come so I can make more while I endlessly re-watch Friends.

daily tint: yellow

Yellow around the house! I was actually planning to go for green, but because I found Yellow flowers by Mama Mary, I switched to Yellow instead.

Happy Monday and last week of June! Already excited for July because it's Anton's birthday month. Wee!

bracelets

Look what I made yesterday!

Got up early for a meeting that ended up getting cancelled right before leaving the house, so I spent my morning making these instead. They're actually really simple to make, but very time consuming and tiring (my fingers were already painful after only making 3 due to all the tightening). The pattern is just based on a basic friendship bracelet I learned from a friend years ago, and I just inserted beads to make it look a bit different. Planning to make more during my free time, and if people are interested I'm willing (and hoping) to sell! Just need to work on trying to make the ends cleaner!

Happy Saturday!

daily prints: aztec

Ironically, it was my aztec print day(s) that turned out to have the least number of pictures. I expected to find a lot of these prints because nowadays, it's everywhere: on bags, tops, shorts, leggings, pouches, wallets, bracelets and necklaces. Unfortunately I didn't find much, and these are what I came across.

My bags, Chesca's bag, Thea's top, Nico's bag, and a Forever 21 top.
