mini mini micro skirt

got a day off today

daphne (e lady boss) was tactful: chengwei, you'd take a break tomolo.

what she really meant:

chengwei we're overstaffed i dun pay you 6.50/hr to sit at e counter, drink kopi, play othello w other slackers, make frequent trips to e toilet, n self-extend your lunch break to as long as you like it.

hur hur hur.

not dat i mind e break, I SHALL DECLARE IT AS HANDICRAFT DAY~

so i woke up dis morn noon feeling ambitious,

i tot i'd finish up mini cheng, sew, and prepare fri+sun's jamming

oh well, there's a reason why i call myself ambitious :P only managed to complete one task: dat it, sewing :D

nah, i DIN sew this.

bought dis skirt online at a steal, and i'm so totally luving it.

mini flare skirts are godsend for big bums like mine :D

the skirt looked pretty easy to sew, so i tot i shall be a copycat and sew another replica in a diff colour!

bought some stretchy jersey frm spotlight at $4/m.

i tink spotlight's a total ripoff. most of e fabric's gg at $10+/m. i found 2 jersey material dat pretty mich look and feel e same, but one's selling at $13/m WTF. one carls' junior meal gone.

so cheapskate me bought e cheaper fabric. i have a gut feeling my amateurish sewing skills prob gonna cost me a few metres b4 i produce anything wearable.

anyway i shall skip e boring sewing part. i usually find handicrafts therapeutic, but sewing is different. sewing makes me GROUCHYYY. grrr.

oh well imagine having to redo some parts a zillion-time till you tink you'd rather drop dead. *tugs at hair* i snapped at my mom.

but den again, my mom's irritating.
