And now a word from the Bizarre Market crew.......................
Friends.

We are holding another Bizarre Market on August 9th from 11-4 pm on the 200 block of North Shields (outside of JOE'S INN).

This market will be held in conjunction with ART 180's Jonny Z Festival during which they will be unveiling the mural project they have been working on.

The day will include many festivities including a moon bounce, live music, raffle drawings, and sounds from WRIR.

Not to mention the best in arts and crafts that local artists have to offer.

If you have anything to sell, please plan on attending as a vendor.

Set up begins at 10 am that morning. Once you have arrived, we will sign you in.


It is free to set up, but we ask that you donate 10% of your earnings to ART 180. Bring a chair, table, and change.

Remember, this Bizarre Market will be outside of JOE'S INN, not Chop Suey. If you go to Chop Suey, you will only have books to look at.

Last day...

....at a job that I love, and I have been loving for nearly two years now. I am moving on to bigger and better things for sure, but there is a lot that I will miss and even more that I will certainly not. So that, my friends is why I am moving on to (hark!) a living wage, administrators that won't treat me like shit, and my own surroundings to do with what I wish. So this is my last day, starting like all the rest, as I get distracted by something and end up just a minute or to late. With that said I will leave this for later, ta ta for now!

Bizzare Market - April 26, be there!

eep!

I just signed up for the GRE's, yes indeed I just layed down 140 smakaroos so that I may take a test, yooohoo.

Can you feel the sarcasm? :)

Why oh why can't education be free, I just want to learn, people, I just want to learn!

Anyhoo, so yeah I have that coming up bright and early in December and the anxiety just builds. In fact I'm off now to buy a study guide, no doubt published by the people who create the test, what a racket. Boo, I say, boo.

Hopefully test anxiety won't be bogging you down, until next time, take care!

I'm a movie star!

Well, sort of! ;)

I had an absolute blast this past weekend at the Handmade Parade put on by the one and only Norfolk Craft Mafia!

I was interviewed for their blog, and they just posted the glitzy interviews on their website. You can also check it out below:



I hope you enjoy my 15 seconds of fame! :)
