But I survived Spring term and the 2008-09 school year. Woohoo!! I finished up my finals on Tuesday but I missed the last meeting for my Religion and Ecology class (stupid vertigo attack). I'm so happy to have gotten through this year, it was a really tough one. But I have found a new love - Tai Chi. I started taking it during Winter term and I moved to my teacher's community class just this week. I love it sooo much.
Black Sheep is looming closer and closer. I can't wait!!! And I got a Ravelry button to wear for it, especially for the Black Sheep Bingo. My knitting circle is having a potluck at one of the member's houses the day before. I need to start thinking of something to take for it. I'm counting down the days 'til fiber-y fun! After Black Sheep comes Summer classes. I'm looking forward to them, summer classes at UO are much more laid back than ones during the rest of the school year.
In knitting related news I made two dish/washcloths for the World Wide Knit in Public event today. I've been knitting for over a year now and these were the first ones I've made. Here's a picture of them. The top one is Tulip Washcloth (a pattern from Plymouth Yarn) and the one under it is Seed Stitch Windows Dishcloth (from Rav).
My (maternal) Grandma from Ontario was down for a visit over Memorial Day weekend. The whole family survived the visit. The Saturday after my Mom and I went on a we-survived-Grandma's-visit celebration trip to Portland. I got to go to both Twisted and Knit-Purl. I now has TOFUtsies! And my Mom saw a store display of some fingerless mitts at Twisted that she really liked, so I'm making her a pair out of Panda Soy. We also found out that navigating Portland can be made even more interesting by having roads block off for a parade. It took us close to half an hour to get from Knit-Purl to Powell's. Oh you wonderful one way streets, you make my life so interesting.
