Beautiful day?

Happy Easter! So far, it has been beautiful outside (I went to brunch without a coat today), but I have been stuck inside prepping for all sorts of mayhem. We have our senior banquet today, so my entire house is setting up for the banquet in the living room. It looks really pretty. However, this morning the first years decided to make breakfast in bed for the seniors, but almost burned the house down. I guess they got toast stuck in the toaster and it started burning. Typical. So the fire alarm went off and we had to evacuate around 9:30 am. It's a good thing one of the HONS came and knocked on my door otherwise I would have still been in pajamas.

Also this morning, an alumna came and photographed my room for one of her upcoming exhibits. She specializes in photographing personal spaces and one of my peers had sent around an email that she was going to be photographing in the area, so I signed up. I wasn't actually in the room while she worked, but I do know that she used my regency dress and chemise, my corset, my copy of Corsets and Crinolines, and my sewing box in the photos, which is cool because those are some of my most treasured items I have at school. I don't know exactly when the photos will go up, but hopefully before finals. I'm also hoping to get a copy of two of the photos. That would be cool.


Now back to work on something (maybe stats homework or my Material Culture essay about toys). Au revior!

April Showers

Hey there bloggies, I realize it's been forever since my last post, but it's mainly because of how hectic this month has turned out to be. I've had lots of work and tests and just haven't had time to work. And now it's getting down to crunch time as I have a paper due on Thursday. Yikes. So I'm basically on to mention as many cool costume-y and crafty things as I can remember to avoid posting multiple posts.
