Lazy post of life
I love (what) my mom (bought me): Side note: You know it's gonna be a long post when I make a cut >:) The project I was...Tadaaaaa :p
<.< >.>
~ ~ ~ ~
TC: For sure *wipes brow* I was totally amazed that the guy understood my ramblings ^_^;
Morphy: .... You are so asking to be lovingly mauled, tsk tsk tsk xD
Shabam: Mwuah at you, darling, for offering! I'll totally keep it in mind for the future ~_^
Becky: Don't forget to give me a heads up when you get published, a'ight? ;3
I can (and probably will) wreck your brain
So first I make a website for my jewelry. Then comes the realization that it doesn't look good. Cue next attempt. Works pretty well in the program. Looks almost decent in Explorer. Ghastly in Firefox. Begin from scratch. Almost done, just one small tweak and..... what just happened? Everything's gone?! O__O NOOOOOO!!!!!
A large serving of panic, frustration and denial, please. Calm down, find support link. Ooo, available people in their chat room. Get immediate assistance and try to explain what happened. That's not easy when you're frantic and unsure of the steps you took, hehe. Poor person was very patient, suggested something I'd tried, took more information from me, realized what the issue was, told me how to fix everything and VOILA! :D
Suddenly all was right with the world again. Thanked him/her from the bottom of my heart and went right into tweaking the place again. But with caution. Of course >.>
So yeah. My plan to wind down before bed was totally shot down xD

I was going to get some help with the site but couldn't resist trying out my hosts "web creator" program, then it sort of snowballed from there ^_^; It felt good to do something creative that didn't clutter up my room further, lol. And I also didn't want to burden the wonderful person who volunteered to give me a hand since they're swamped with a lot and need their rest (PLEASE FORGIVE ME I LOVE YOU!!!).
Aphew. Now almost all of my stuff has been put into the "system", save for 5 necklaces that my younger sister will choose 1 or more from (she commissioned me, lolgiggle) and 2-3 that I haven't photographed yet.
But now I really, really, really need to sneak on over to my bed and sleep _^_ Plenty of love to go around twice to all of you! :3
It's all their fault, really :-(
Was meant to meet some people about a coaching/interning project on Tuesday but, since I've been sickly for the past week+, I opted to stay home. Woman from the project called Tuesday morning and asked if I'd be in today (Thursday) instead and I said yes.
Didn't feel too great but took a bus into town, changed to yet another one that took me out to the remote place where they're at, only to find all the staff (save for one woman) are away on a course and the person I was supposed to meet won't be available until Monday..... Ah-huh....
The bus back into town wouldn't be due until another 40 minutes so I trekked across industrial land for half an hour so's I could get to a bus stop that'd take me directly home. My hips were numb from walking on concrete for such a long stretch of time. Luckily I had a scarf on to protect me from the low temperatures (though my throat feels funny now....).
Later on I checked the mail to see if they'd sent me an email about the change of plan, which they had ... it was sent not long after the woman had called me that morning ....
Now, if you're going to a conference/course I'd assume you're told well in advance. Absolutely not 1 ½ days prior, right? So she should've known this when she called Tuesday morning and told me so right there and then instead of sending a "ps email" not long after. Or, better yet, call me up again and say "whoops mistake, scratch that, lol".
Yeah, I'm stupid for not checking the mail but I still place the biggest blame on her/them/the Man.
Also, while I was in their HQ I looked at some papers posted on a board and they suggested they're doing the same thing as another project I was signed onto a couple of years back....
Aaaaaaagh! This all feels so pointless. One project after another that leads me nowhere. All it does is sour my life for a period of time and/or jeopardizes my mental health. /head desk
Sleepy time naow ._.
Return of the beads O_O!
1) Crafting
A head ache when I'm going for 3 rows, pretty decent sailing otherwise. Usually.
2) Photographing and processing of said photos
Kills me every time. If only I were better at it I wouldn't get so emo xD;
3) Calculating costs
Has become easier but it can be a hassle to find prices for certain beads and trying not to sell ones creations too short.
4) Writing descriptions and taking measurements
Booooooooring. And sometimes puzzling as to how I should word things.
5) Having to repeat steps after #1 or completely forgetting to do so with some items [and trying to find them in the mess that is my room]
.... This has happened way too many times.
But then my sister tries on a new creation and it's a perfect fit for her and she's totally in love with it and it reassures me that it's all worth it in the end :p
