   Hannibal series
I love going to thrift stores and finding good books for only 60 cents. I bought Hannibal by Thomas Harris some time ago which totally thrilled me. And just today I found Red Dragon at the Salvation Army! I was so excited because I have been searching high and low at thrift stores for it, but I finally found it.

I have been waiting for the Hannibal TV series to go on netflix but no luck yet. Anyone else like Hannibal Lector?

   The Banana Scented Incense
Lately I've been super into burning incense! I have lots of scents, such as lavender, coconut, vanilla, apple cinnamon and so many more. My favorite scent though is my newest one, sage cucumber!

My mom bought it for me from Big Lots on clearance for only $2.40 and it came with a metal censer. Though it says it's cucumber and sage scented, it definitely smells more like bananas. It burns quickly, but doesn't have that burnt charcoal scent that lower quality incense leaves behind. I really love it!

   Tried a New Tea Flavor!
I'm always afraid to try new foods and drinks. I have some sort of phobia that I will dislike it and then have it go to waste. I'm trying to get over that though, so yesterday I tried a new flavor of tea! It was Vanilla Caramel black tea. Honestly, I have to say that I don't really like fancy tea flavors but it was okay. I made sure to drink it though so that I didn't waste it. I much prefer plain earl grey, pekoe, or green tea.

   I Miss This Place

   Gothic and Lolita shorts
I've been working on a lot of different Gothic and Lolita short stories like Valle Lacrimarum and others that haven't been drawn yet. Is there any recommendations you might have as far as what you'd like to see happen in these stories? For example more romance, less action, etc. I have a tendency of writing alot of drama but very little romance so if you'd like to see more or less, tell me!

   Doll Restoration
Long ago when I was little, my grandmother bought, for my sister and I, two matching porcelain dolls. The dolls have been lost in storage until late last year when my mom found them while digging through some boxes. They were small and cute so I decided to put them in my room as little decorations. For a while I had been thinking about fixing the dolls up, making new clothes, etc. Over a week ago I decided to finally take action and dye one of the doll's hair black while the other was left blonde. I've been working on taking the clothes apart to use as a pattern for a new dress. Tonight I managed to sew the base of a dress together with scrap fabric from a previously failed project and left-over lace from the original doll dress. Most was sewn by machine except the sleeves which need to be sewn by hand. The dress is going to be a gothic lolita dress with a matching bonnet, cameo, and white cotton bloomers. Not to mention a built-in petticoat made of stiff organza, and waist ties made of black ribbon. She will need her face repainted since they smeared glue on her at the factory. I plan to make a new lolita dress for the blonde doll too, except a sweet styled one. I am about 65% done with the new dress; all that's left are her bloomers, bonnet, another sleeve, her collar, and to seal the back of the dress. I will paint new shoes for her too! When I'm done with the dress I'll post pictures!

   Like, totally.
I got lotsa stuff today, including tons of anime, clothes, and trinkets for my room! My favorite present was the adorable lounge outfit I bought from Bodyline, its so soft and cozy! My least favorite gift was a cell phone. I can't stand cell phones but my mom insisted that I have one in case of an emergency. My sister got a snuggie, I wanted one!

My dad watched Hetalia with us which was cool, his favorite character was Germany.

   Go Moscow Sretensky Monastery, Go!
so, My school is finally on Christmas break. Thats pretty cool, but my world history final was a tease, however, I left the field at night on my horse.

I hate kids, they can't behave. I tried threatening my nephew Gabe, with the "Santa will bring you coal this year!" but it just doesn't work. Me, Gabe, and Luca played Super Smash Bros. Brawl but I turned it off because Gabe wouldn't shut up! "Haha, I killed you," or "Oh man! Thats not fair!....Dang it!..Stop it, crap! Ugh!" Can't kids shut up? And to my horror he shouted "Angeline has a crush on Ganondorf!" Oh God its so true...
