If your Kasia please stop reading!

I made this on Sunday. My sewing machine decided to be a pain and it ran out of blue thread half way through. The blue sun material is a favorite of mine. It's a old sarong that didn't fit me anymore. This is for a special friends birthday and I HOPE aksai (that's jumbled people!) doesn't read this...but it's pretty!

My camera decided to be really annoying and make all my pictures blurry. Oh well. And the dogs a camera hog so she popped in one of the photos.

And now I've got a baby quilt to finish for a friend's pregnant mother, a purple flapper dress and a green flapper dress to start and a secret. He he he Hatti!

Have a nice day!

Fab website

Hey all,

EEEEK! Found this website!
http://aprintaday.blogspot.com/
It's oozing with cuteness! I printed out the cute little Kokeshi tags for Harriet's and my bag on the train to Dubbo. Unfortunatly my printer decided to be anoying and refuse to print in colour, so they are slightly less cute. But still pretty awesome!

10 Things You Didn't Know About Me

1. When I leave school I want to be a fashion designer, costume designer, costume coordinator, writer, singer, or shop owner. I really can't imagine myself sitting a computer all day typing things for some big company that only thinks about money. Yuck! Do what you love and love what you do. That's my motto.

2. I'm obsessive compulsive about decorating. My room is seriously over pimped. Seriously.

3. I play the oboe, which is a double reeded instrument. It looks a bit like a clarinet but doesn't sound like it. When first learning to play, I sounded like a choking duck or my favorite, a drowning cat. Now days, I'm a lot better. I really suck at scales though and I stuffed up my Grade 4 exam due to it. I passed with a C. Go me.

4. I over stress about school, and up to a point where i get head miles. Head miles is where you mind moves too fast due to lack of sleep or stress. It feels like you are going really really fast. Like someone hit fast forward. Sometimes it's a fun experience and I enjoy the rid. But sometimes it's horrible and scary.

5. As it seems, when I cram for tests, I always manage to do better than when i study. Not sure why.

6. I always give people presents that I've made them like bags and pencil rolls and canvas' with photos and art on them, cause I have no money to buy anything. The always seem to be loved though, cause they were made from the heart!

7. I borrow so many books from my school library that the Librarian knows who I am, reserves books for me and buys books especially for me. The other day she even asked me why I hadn't come the day before!

8. I read other peoples blogs so much. Too much. Some every day in fact.

9. I hide my age. All the time. It's best too. No-one takes a 13 year old seriously. They treat you as kids. First of all, in real life I don't look 13. In fact, I've had to show my student pass with my age at the movies cause they wouldn't let me buy a child ticket. I want cheap movies damn it. In the world of blogging, as soon as you say, 'Hey, my names Sophie, I'm thirteen, I really like your blog', they say stuff like, 'Oh gosh sweetie pie, so glad you enjoy my blog, but are you sure your allowed to be on this site? Can i talk to your mummy or daddy please cutie?' Okay , I may be gorgeous, but I'm not that kind of cute. Can I just have some respect?

10. My friends and family mean to world to me. I can't get by without them helping me. They have helped me through some really tough times and there are some I can never repay.

So did you learn something new?

Have a nice evening. I feel like a nice slice of blue cheese. How about you?

Random Art and Craft

Here are a few things I've made recently...

1. Lovely bag made out of my famous 'happy fruit' material, for my friend Georgina's birthday.

2. Slightly demented Barbie fashion. I thinking about what I might do as a HSC textiles entry so i tested it out on Barbie dolls. It turned out pretty well except i cant get them off without destroying them. Therefor, it wouldn't work in real life. but I've had another idea...I'll have to test it soon...

3. Wave Paintings. Another obsession. I've done several in different colours. I added words to this one too. It's hanging on my door.

Black is the New Black

I relised to day. I have an obsession. With black. I think that's a good thing? Because I have:

Four black dresses

Two black skirts

Three pairs of black pants

One black blazer

Two black jumpers/cardies

and

Five pairs of black shoes

Favoritism? Obsession? I'm not sure. But the dress I bought today is pretty. So, so?

It's a little bit Spooky

Did i tell you? I'm directing a short film. We finished yesterday. Editing was fun! It's a thriller, featuring my voice as the news reporter. And being director meant that i could boss everyone around and not get in trouble.

If you want to see, 'When a Stranger Calls', its world premiere is Friday 10th of October in Balmain.

We decided to take photos of all the cast and crew for the credits. It had to be creepy. Here's mine...

Spooky

Have a nice day!

Homophobia

A friend of mine anounched he was gay recently. He’s pretty awesome. Today at sport, he was going about his serious dancer ways (i.e. doing the splits and such), and group of boys from another school came over to us and asked him if he was gay. He said “Yes I am. Got a problem with it?” They then laughed and said’ “AWWWWWWH What a Poofter!” What ever that is anyway. How cruel can you get?

I am very proud to say that my school has a great acceptance to gays and lesbians. This is probably because there are quite a few who attend. I don’t understand homophobia at all. Why discriminate someone over their sexual preferences. That’s just shallow.

Have a nice afternoon.

This is me

This was Sunday. It's my favorite top.

Hello it's nice to be here!

Hi everyone! I've done it! I've finally done it! I made myself a blog! This is something very new but absolutely fabulous. I can't wait to get started.

First off, my name is Sophie. I am thirteen years old and I have a strong opinion about most things. I made this blog to post art, fashion, ideas, craft, poems, stories and the experiences of my short life and the future.
