The John F. Kennedy Speech Award!
This is rewarded to the best speaker in my speech class, and it's chilling out on my family's mantle. I broke down and cried when I received this bust on Thursday, and gave a happy speech, thanking my fellow classmates for letting me learn about them through their speeches, and thanking them for listening to me. It was quite a lovely experience. I've still got this surreal feeling about it. It was nice hearing 'Congratulations!' from everyone in class.
In crafty news, during my last school week, I picked up a copy of CrossStitcher magazine from Joanns. They only had copies from the Royal Wedding Celebration edition, so I grabbed it, unsure if/when they'd get more.
Why have I not discovered this magazine before? It has so many cute designs in it, and it came with a stitch kit for a pincushion, which I'm slowly working on. In my adventures in flipping through the magazine, I came across a section which taught you to dye your stitch fabric with teas, and had some cute tea cup charts.
No clue what I'll do with it, but I like tea, so it fits.
Are any of you out of school? What are your plans for the summer?
Take Care, and Happy Crafting.
