Dumpy the Dwarf


Christine and I just woke up. It was nice to sleep in. But we both woke up looking and feeling very rough. I think I'm starting to get better, then all of the sudden I wake up feeling like I got hit by a truck. Anyway. STEAMPUNK. I know this sounds really nerdy, but it's awesome. The ball was really fun and I even won a necklace. The costumes some people had were amazing. Some of the people were really, really into it and told us how they made guns out of 7 layers of glue and cardboard. I have to say I'm impressed.

I really should learn to sleep more. Insomnia sucks. Oh well I'll just Stumble Upon cakes that look like Van Gogh's "A Starry Night" and recipes that almost make me want to go to the grocery store right then and whip up something fabulous :)

Steampunk?


So I'm not too sure how I feel about this yet. The CofC anime club is having a Steampunk ball this saturday night and after seeing my friend Jeffrey jump up and down so high that his head almost hit the ceiling, I'm half inclined to check it out. I had no idea what it was so I did a bit of research and found out its pretty cool. From a costume designer's perspective at least. I don't know if there is a musical with steampunk style clothing, but I want someone to write one just so I can design the Western/Victorian/futuristic costumes. Its like a cross between Oregon Trail, Wild, Wild West and Amelia Earhart. And if you know anything about me, you'd know that I'll take any excuse to wear peacock feathers in my hair. Here's a link to some really cool costumes. Enjoy :)

New Kid on the Block

So I'm pretty new at this. I like to bake/cook and I like fashion. So if you don't like either of these things, you probably won't like this blog. But I really hope you do :)
