Rain of Fire

• Shots. I hate having a fucking needle in my arm.
• Global warming. The tree in front of my house is already blossoming. My favorite time of the year is when the trees start to bloom - it always happens sometime around my birthday, the weather is lovely, and it’s so beautiful, even though only a week or so passes before the flowers start to fall - but it’s freaking JANUARY, and it’s BLOOMING.

I’ve been kinda lazy about taking pictures of earrings after I make them. I was cleaning up my desktop today and I found a picture of a pair I made for my piano teacher a little before Christmas. The cranes are made out of a copy of a copy of a page from Sy’s piano music that she left at my house during the summer, since it was the coolest-looking piano music I could find.

Anyways, enjoy.

Tea-soaked music paper cranes with Swarovski crystals, paired with delicate cage beads. Suspended from gold fishhook earrings by delicate gold chain.

A long time ago, you showed us how to make one.

I don’t remember how, exactly. It looked pretty hard. The first time it didn’t work, so you turned it into a paper boat instead…

You did eventually make one though. It looked pretty cool - too bad I can’t remember it any better.

Anyways. I made a paper monkey today. There were surprisingly few tutorials online. I don’t think this is the right model. It’s pretty cute, but I wish I’d gotten to learn the other model from you instead.

I’ll bring it over next time I get a chance.

Bye, Ye Ye. I wish I could’ve been there today.
