Crafts or Homework... the eternal debate for me.

So this week has been a nightmare of homework and other stressors... so what did I do to cope? I crafted while procrastinating. Yup... and somehow it made the homework seem less daunting.  So the combination of origami and crochet projects has helped to keep me sane (and allowed me to give some pretty rockin' gifts to my dear friends).

Folding Papers

One of the things that I have wanted to do since I moved to the Bay Area is learn to fold a paper dragon.  One of the many friends I've made here, Than, had a few in his room and when I saw them I just fell in love with the idea.  He agreed to teach me one day and today was the day.  At the same time, my new roommate, SK offered to teach me to fold a rose.
