yeah, i've been thinking of trying to get rid of other things that i'm doing. believe me, i do lots of stuff. despite the fact that i have a regular, daily 8hour job (count out the 4hour total travel time), i still try to sneak in a few things to keep me sane.
more than a year ago, i bought lots of beads and wires and wire jewelry tools, thinking i can pull this wire wrap jewelry fever off. but a few days ago, i thought, no. i can't. jewelry making seems to be fun, but it needs 100% attention. and it seems that the materials i want to use in my designs aren't easily available in my area, or country, at worst.
and yet i have another hobby to ditch off (hopefully not forever). my sewing. i've been sewing since i first laid my eyes on my grandma's sewing kit. i made clothes for my fashion dolls, for myself, i stitched accessories, i repaired torn clothes. it's really something i like to do. but, as i said, i do too many things, i have so little time. sewing, isn't just sewing. you shop for materials, you design something, you make the pattern and cut the fabric carefully, then you sew. yeah, enough of my excuses.
and on to a (not so) new-found hobby. makeup. yeah, i'm the late-bloomer tomboy who wished i started tinkering into my mom's makeup kit in grade school. makeup is indeed fun. and aside from it being related to my first love, i can do it EVERYDAY! yes, i can. at work, at home, at a friend's wedding, a family member's birthday party. at this rate, i can become better without knowing it. if you know what i mean. it's only been less than a year and never was a day when i didn't think about it. sheessh, i guess i'm in love haha. but seriously, i think this thing of a hobby is gonna stay for a while.
so, today starts the making of a makeup hobbyist. hobbyist, what a word; i just thought it now. because while i was typing the first sentence in this paragraph, i thought i didn't deserve to be called an artist, yet.
hopefully, on my 100th post, i can already call myself a makeup artist. :)
