Sketch!

Sketch outlining my intended alterations for the yellow dress I posted photos of a few days ago.

Ok. Here we go!

Is it better to be a good person who's constantly let down by how selfish people are, or an oblivious, opportunistic person who takes advantage of every situation to best benefit themselves?

I know what would be easier, anyway.

"Before" Photos

Here are the "before" shots for what will my first attempt at properly altering a dress. My typical method is to throw a belt around it, and bunch the extra fabric behind me (to be covered with a coat upon wearing out).

I think some proper sewing will breed a much better result.

Never thought I'd go this route again..

After the days of live/dead journal and all that came along with it, I didn't expect to ever find myself "blogging" again. (That is the first and only time I will use that word because I honestly hate it.) The thing is, as I get older and try to figure out my life, I notice a lot of wonderfully positive changes that come with experience and being able to take a step back and see the bigger picture.

If anyone reads along or not, it gives me some piece of mind to put my thoughts into words.

I'll keep this first one short. But one thing I must say, is these past few weeks I've really come to value the few close friends I have. I guess I'm working on sucking out the poison in my life in order to survive, and man does it feel rewarding.
