:: Final two projects for jewelry casting are DONE.
This is a ring and I love it. I wish it was smoother but the plastic coated w/ gold paint didn't melt so well in the kiln so it came out with a pourous texture.

This is a bracelet. It's a bit awkward cuz I had wanted one jumpring to link them together but I realized the bigger ones I had didn't match the delicate details of the casted pieces, so now it's 2 per. If I had more time, I prolly would've soldered them on...
Both of the projects called for found plastic "junk". We had to manipulate the pieces to make it out own and cast it. One project (the ring) was just to make something outta plastic. The other project (the bracelet) was to make at least 5 multiples of one thing using a rubber mold and wax and use those to make something wearable.
:: For some reason, every time I play the "read random manga" game, it almost always ends up being shoujo. I dunno why.
My most recent reading spree was Absolute Boyfriend and I bawled like a baby at the ending of it. It was so sad!!! But yet, bittersweet. ;_____;
Oh and it bugged me that Gaku-san would say random words and phrases in Spanish. Last I knew, the Kansai dialect didn't involve espanol. Makes me wonder how it was originally written in Japanese. XD;
:: God my sleeping sched and eating sched have been fucked up. It's not that I've been pulling all-nighters but for some reason I'm just not hungry at the times I used to be and I seem to need more than 8 hrs sleep lately. I dunno. Blah.
