So I'm finally all settled in at good ol UMBC. It's wierd to be back here on campus after being away at another school. It really is like coming home:) And now that I'm back and fully equipted with my craft supplies maybe I can start creating again (u know . . . when i dont have homework . . . ;)

I'm also really happy to be home with my roomies. I missed them lots!
yep this is a normal activity

So hopefully, between classes, homework and my new weekend job, I'll be able to squeeze out some crafts. Of course I will be doing a lot of art in my studio classes, I'm looking forward to incorporating that into some of my upcoming projects.

wierd creatures!

So in case you haven't noticed Im pretty obsessed with animals and little creatures of all sorts. I found this website with the worlds 25 wierdest animals!  Some of then are truly amazing and pretty strange.  These are some of my favorites: 

axolotl

aye aye lemur

blob fish ~haha!

dumbo octapus

yeti crab

Aren't they great!  Anyways, I'm thinking I've got to do some kind of art project involving weird animals.   Definitely.

Anyways, heres the website, there are plenty more to look at: 25 worlds weirdest animals
