why do birds suddenly appear?

my lovely and crafty friend kaela made these origami birds for me. well, she made them and gave some to me. but i like to think she had me in mind while folding that origami paper. such a pretty addition to my boringly white bedroom.

the tail end

here is a mechanical tail i've been working on in my animatronics class. it's wonderful because i've always wanted to have my own tail.

feelin' crafty

now that christmas is over, or now that christmas has been over for a month and a half (i'm a little behind on this blogging thing), i can show the pictures of the gifts i made. homemade gifts on the hill side are fun, because it forces me to do artsy things. i guess school is supposed to do that too ..
