Today I learned how to fold a paper crane. My first one is bright yellow and sitting on top of the TV. I’m not sure I’m going to embark on folding 1000 right now, though – I’d like to have a specific purpose in mind when I do it.

It was an amazing day, and I’m so happy I got to play a part in it.

I always wanted to dye my hair blue or wear an awesome blue wig, but I was too nervous or self-conscious to do it for a long time. A few months ago, I decided to buy one for the Asylum Supernatural convention, and when it arrived I fell in love with it. I not only wore it to the convention, I’ve worn it to special events (like my sister’s hen night) and even just in everyday life. Weirdly, I didn’t feel self-conscious with it on, like I expected – it made me feel more confident, and I’ve received lots of compliments while wearing it. I’m going to start wearing it more often. :D
