Corsets, fishnets, fake dreads, music.

Last night’s outfit from our Ding Dong-themed Eurovision party. I was thinking of maybe wearing this for my graduation, what do you guys think? (Forgive me my stupid face, I don’t know why I keep looking like I’m 12.)

Just got back from the Santa Cruz album release gig. I don’t usually listen to their kind of music (hard rock/hair metal) but I got to say, I like the way they sounded live!It’s a shame it’s Wednesday, otherwise I would’ve stayed longer.

Every now and then, someone asks me to share my playlists with them. It took me quite a long time to actually start using Spotify but since I finally did it, here’s one of the playlists I created (using only songs from Spotify so anyone can listen to them).

This playlist is missing some bands (simply because Spotify doesn’t have them) and I haven’t done any fine-tuning by picking out the songs I don’t like, so some bands might be over-presented whereas some that are in heavy rotation seem very under-presented.

I hope you enjoy though and feel free to add me if you like (:

bridgwaterguy: Building a bridge with assumptions is a dangerous task. Though you see the other side, it will only be a matter of time before your bridge collapses beneath your very feet;washing away every rusty nail and pieces of rotted wood away. I’m actually starting to get really annoyed with my super-old photos popping up. Where is this even from? It’s not on my deviantART anymore and the one I have on Tumblr has a different watermark. Not cool.In any case, this was taken at Georgetown waterfront back in 2009.

My little hat factory has been back in business all day! I also made a few more prototypes of the bat collar, it’s starting to take its final shapes soon. I’m so surprised and thankful for the positive feedback it got yesterday!

I made a quick prototype of a decorative collar (and took these photos even faster, my apologies).
After some tweaking of the pattern (fine-tuning the bat’s ears and changing the fastening method, for example) would anyone be interested in buying these if I made some more (and put them up on my Etsy)? (:
