Moving to Bloglovin'

So you've probably heard about Google Reader's decision to shut down the service this coming July. And in my search for an alternative, I've come across Bloglovin' again. What made me finally decide to use this bloggers' favorite is its ability to import your Google Reader data. I haven't tried other readers, but if you're still looking for one, why not join me?

This was how I learned to crochet, making cellphone cases in college with my classmates, who taught me. I still have to make one for my brother, though.

June22's Fox Fleece Scarf

June22's Fox Fleece Scarf

Finally received this super soft fox scarf that I won from Thinking Out Loud last January. Before trying it on, I had to take a picture because it was wrapped very nicely. I had a note card, too. Thank you, Lili.

June22's Fox Fleece Scarf

Here's my little sister trying it on on a very warm morning. Is it obvious we have no idea how to tie a scarf? :)

By the way, this is also available for purchase at Lili's etsy shop June22. It's called Timothy Fox Fleece Scarf.

Mad about Madness

 Madness by Muse

I love this Muse-ic! It has elements of Queen's "I want to break free", electronic rock, and a beat anyone should dance to. The LXD could definitely rock this song.
