Orange maybe my favorite color....but that doesn't not mean I like everything that abuses it's name....

So I just got back from class...they served us beer and we watched Clockwork Orange...the strangest experience of my life. All I have to say it no matter how much alcohol they could have fed us...it never would be enough to make that movie any less disturbing. I think I'll have nightmares...I don't recommend it. Did you know that when it came out the producer actually pulled it from theaters in 1973 because the youth violence level in Britain became so high as a result?! So crazy.

It just wasn't a great day...it started late...as usual...so I had to get ready in 10 mins to catch the tube in time, then I stayed after draping class to work on my assignment and got in one of my "zones" and didn't head home till I realized it was 4:45. So after 7 and 1/2 hours of draping...I run home and up to my room, only to realize....I forgot my keys and all my roommates had left for the movie. So here I am with two huge bags of fabric and supplies about to be late for the movie that is down town in 30 mins. Luckily our doors have about a 2 ft. entry way so I could kind of hide my stuff against the wall and go to class and pray no one would steal my scissors... Then only to go and have to sit through this disgusting movie...oh and then come home to an apt. that looked like a hurricane hit...one of my roommates had a project due today...it was so messy...it even bothered me! The queen of mess! So that was about all that happened today...oh except I forgot...I did something I've never done before. I bought my first Coca Cola... The girl that hasn't drank pop in 4 years! I swear it must have coke in it here still. All I had was a sip of my friend's the other day to wash something down and I couldn't get it out of my mind! So I bought a can today. Of course afterwards I felt sick, but seriously where did this come from?! I hate pop, especially Coke! Well it won't be happening again :) lol

Here are some pictures of some of the shoes I had to drape for my footwear design class. We were given a last (shoe form) and had to drape 20 different "looks" that incorporated our theme. My theme is stones.

And here are some of the things I draped to day. (As you can see we didn't have access to an iron today...and the reason the cowl neck doesn't have armholes...I was being resourceful and reusing my fabric...reduce, reuse, recycle!) Bias cut dress skirt with Bow bodice, Side view of cowl neck, and front view of cowl neck.

I'd like to thank all of you who read this...b/c it would be extremely lame to write this for no one. :) Hope you all enjoy it! Night All. LOVE, KL
