Rockabilly Style

I have really been in to the rockabilly, psychobilly style lately!  I sure don't know how to style hair nicely but I was thinking of trying to practice victory rolls and pompadour styles. I'm also planning to start this little project soon, a cute little rockabilly style dress:

The pattern is free, so I figured why not?  Plus it could serve a duel purpose if I can make it correctly...it looks really similar to the Pre-War Spring Outfit from Fallout.  Woo-hoo, I found a way to make it cosplay related. haha.

Planning on going to Joannes to look for fabric next week.  Should be fun!

Also on an (un?) related note? I unfortunately have been really liking the style for Milla's Jovovich character (Alice) in the new resident evil movie.  I know those movies are practically an abomination compared to the games, but I think they are fun in their own way.  And I really like her new outfit.  Another new outfit I discovered I really like is the new look for Lara Croft.  I might have to add these two to my ever-growing list...

A New Year!

Wow! A new year is here already! I haven't written in this for a while, I know. Let's see how many new years resolutions I can break this year:

1) Get in shape! (Almost certain to be broken by next month, but we'll see...)
2) Actually finish something I'm writing! (I'll give that one about 6 or 7 months before it's broken. I have lots of ideas, I just feel extremely lazy lately)
3) Pay off most of my debt! (HA! Well...we'll see...)

Okay three's enough for now.

It has been extremely cold here lately. -31 out in Willow when we all woke up New Year's day. It was cold enough to keep food frozen on my windowsill overnight! Wow. Well classes are going wonderfully, I must say. I start a new job on February 1 (Programmer/Analyst 1 job). I was trying not to write it too much anywhere until I actually move over to that department, but I am just so extremely excited. SO EXCITED. I can't wait to be over there. My work will help me with school and my school will help me with work. I just...seriously can't wait. Speaking of school classes start next week. I still need to buy books, they are just so expensive.

I hope this new year brings a lot of good things! For everyone! 2012 has to be good! There have just been so many unhappy years in a row for so many people, I just want things to start looking up now.

Dash got me Skyrim for Christmas....I have been so addicted to it. I know I have heard so many stories about how it craps out at around 40-60 hours of gameplay on the PS3, but here's hoping they make a patch to fix that before I get there. :) haha!
