Jumping into Social Media

Even though I am currently a teen, by no means would I call myself a huge teen social media person. But I broke my bubble and Five Paws Studio now has an Instagram which *shockingly* is called fivepawsstudio. Cassie Thomas of Clover Leaf Props had one and it looked like fun, so I have one too now!
So if you’re on Instagram, go follow! http://instagram.com/fivepawsstudio
I decided to make one and it turned out that I had made one before. We won’t go into the sadness of what it looked like. But obviously, when I made it I didn’t have a clue about how to work it.

Now the last part of Five Paws’ new outlets. Youtube.
My friend(who has her own blog here) and I have a shared youtube account thing. While it won’t be completely model horse-y, I plan on making model horse videos ranging from tips, to pictures, to how-tos. The goal for the channel is for her to vlog and give tips about her awesome life next year in Japan and for me to talk about my life here, aka college and hobbies. If I figure out youtube, hopefully there will be a video in the near future!

Bullet The Bunny Meets The Fur

On my little shopping excursion to Tandy Leather, I also came home with a rabbit fur, because having items right at check out really encourages me to look and then buy. And I told myself that it would be used for a Native American Costume.

Which is ironic because I have a rabbit. A very photogenic rabbit.Bullet is very tolerant of things I do because he loves to have his picture taken (And frankly is cute enough to where all of his pictures turn out great. I wish I was as photogenic).

Yoda Bunny is a must.

Rabbit fur (the rabbit was 8 yrs, which is old for a rabbit)+ pet bunny= hilarious photos. I showed Bullet the fur and he immediately sniffed it and nudged it.

Eventually he realized that his new friend wasn’t moving and looked at me like “Hey Mom, this isn’t going to be me, right?”
No Bullet. You don’t have to worry about a thing*.

*Unless you’re bad. 

When Hobbies Overlap

While I love love love model horses, I also love books and nerd-tastic things.

On Thursday night , there was a special screening of the movie adaption of John Green’s novel, The Fault In Our Stars. So naturally myself and a group of friends went to see it. I got a special poster,a bracelet, and got to be a part of a special simulcast. (ps. It was a beautiful and wonderful adaptation of an equally wonderful book that I highly recommend)

My Friend and I taking a picture with the poster. She has a really cool blog here, even though it isn’t about horses

I spent the day making a t-shirt and by the time I got home I was tired, so my bed called me.
Earlier I’d gone to the local Tandy Leather store,all with the intent of buying dye.

As you can see I came home with other stuff.

So while waiting for leather to dry, my hobbies collided.

I made miniature donuts that are The Fault In Our Star themed.

Master Has Given Kristian A Diploma, Kristian Is Free!

I graduated on Saturday with my class of 31.

There were solemn moments during it.

As there were funny moments.

My wonderful sister took pictures during the ceremony, including the wonderful documentation of me moving my tassel. I laughed because it reminds me of model horse step by step photographing.

But the end was the best, because I finished High School with a GPA of about 96 point something, making me eligible for High Honors. Yay! And I got a pretty awesome National Honor Society medal too.

Graduation goes hand in hand with one person who pushed me and made me strive to want to do well in school. I want to thank my mom for everything that she has done. Don’t know what I would have done without her. <3
