Reason for this blog

I haven't posted much since I created this blog and most of them don't even go with why I created this blog.

Origanaly this was going to be my place to complain about what ever bugged me; past or present. I was one of those 'weird' kids who didn't seem to fit in anywhere. Which is why I pick the name "Always seeing, never seen". I noticed everything that was going on around me since no one past on news to me. But when I went to make my first post I just couldn't think of anything to complain about. So I just started posting pictures and crafts and what not. I want to do something more with this blog though. I'me not going to complain, I want to help.

You see, one of my favorite things is being able to help other people. But I don't have the confidence to do anything big. So I will start here, in this little corner of the internet. I hope people will trust this faceless blog enough to send me questions. Questions about anything and I'll send you my opinion. You don't have to take it, but sometimes it helps to see things from someone elses point of view.

Not only that, but since I don't know you and you don't know me I won't tell you things just to spare your feelings just because I'm your friend who doesn't want you to hate me. Nor will I tell you anything to hurt you or force my view onto you. I will tell you them in the best way I know how; kind but true.

So please, trust me with your questions. And if I do something to hurt you then in advance, I'm sorry.

The blog posts from now on will be my views on various things. Like politics to eatting meat. I wish for you to read them with an open mind and properly think about what you read. Its fine if you don't agree with what I say, I just wish for others to see another side. There are always at least 2 sides to story and a lot of the time people only see one.

Feel free to tell me what you think of whatever topic I have wrote about. I would love to hear many sides to broaden my horizon. But please, resond in a civalised manner. I know not everyone knows english very well but please try. I know I misspell many words and my grammer is wrong sometimes but I try. Also, if you notice I spelt something wrong or so please tell me so I can learn and not make that mistake again.

I can read 1337 and most text abbreviations but they are annoying and I probaly will just ignore you. This is not Wheel of Fortune so vowels are free, please use them.

Liberation Treatment

A few weeks ago on the news they were talking about the Liberation Treatment for MS where they open up veins in the neck. It seems some experts say that the blocked veins have nothing to do with MS, and they may be right. What gets me is that these are blocked blood veins to the brain. Weither they have any connection at all to MS shouldn't they be cleared? If one were to have a blocked vein in the leg or arm or so they would clear it up no problem. But one to the brain? Oh no, bad idea! Really now, the only bad part is that the patient could get better. The big problem for these 'experts' is that MS drugs cost a lot of money and if somone is cure, no more money.

Personaly, I'm all for the Liberation Treatment. My neighbour has MS and recently got on the list for the Liberation Treatment. Heres hoping that it all works out. He is a nice guy and a good friend of my dad's.

And here to everyone who has a loved one who is in someway 'ill'. I hope everything works out for the best, whatever way that may end up being.

Creatology

A neighbour of mine likes to make those creatology wooden puzzles. I always thought they were cool when I seen them at Micheals but I never bought one. Recently though my neighbour gave us some of his extras so I tried a couple. They are so cool!

I've made 4 so far and I just love them. I love to paint them just as much as building them too. Check them out below!


My angelfish. First one I made. I thought it was pretty but sort of plain just wooden. So I bought some paint and painted it. With this one I took it apart and painted each peice. The scales are many different shades and both sides are in the same order. I made sure of that. Unfortunately this one was drop and one of the peices broke. It is fixed but stands crooked now. Still my fave. Only one I put a finish on so far too, so it shines.


My brother liked the wolf so he made quite a bit of this one. He has little patience though so I ended up finishing it, not that I mind. He asked me if I would paint it like the picture on the package for him, so I did. I painted this one while it was built, so the paint is in all the cracks and is like glue.


Seahorses! I just recently finished this one. I wanted some wild colored seahorses, but not the same colors. So while I was testing paint mixes I came up with these. They aren't really what I was aiming for but I like them anyways.

My forth one is a plane. Unfortunately since it is mostly bright white my camera doesn't show it very well. I painted it like a Snowbird though, even though it is the wrong plane. For those who don't know the Snowbirds are Canada military aerobatics flight demonstration team.
Learn a bit about them at either

I hope you remember to take time out of you day to just have fun.
See you again!

Knitting

Knitting is one of the things I've always wanted to learn. I've seen some beautiful knitting things and I often say to myself "one day I'll make that." So I've recently started knitting a scarf. Its more so I get the hang of things so I just have pure knit stitch. I have a few spots where I messed up but I'm doing pretty well considering.

It is actully my 3rd time trying to knit. The first time I was around 10-12 and it was just bad. Just trying to keep the number a stitches constant was hard. I learned how to increase and derease though...

The second time I was around 14-15 and it was pretty good in a sence. I could change colors and keep a constant amount of stiches. My tension was really bad though and it was very tight in areas and loose in others.

But thins time, I'm starting to get the hang. So I've been showing it off. I feel proud to have come this far. Learning something new always makes me happy.

Heres a photo. Pretty cool huh? Been working on it for about a week.

I like the colors. There wasn't really much choice where I got my yarn from. Next time I'm going to Micheals to buy some. I've seen such nice colors there! (Its my favorite store too)

I hope you feel proud with everything you accomplish, no matter how small!

Butterflys

I got an idea the other day to make a butterfly hairpin. I don't usally wear hair accessories but I thought it would be cute to make. I didn't really plan anything out I just sort of stuck things together. I want to make a matching one so they will be a pair, though I'll put more thought into the next one.


I think its cute. Though I probaly should have a bigger bobby pin.?


Horrible image but it shows the size.

I wonder what other cute little accessories I can think up. I'm going to need to buy some beads and not just take apart cheap bracelets and what not.

Thats it for today! Hope your day was as good as mine!

A Walk with a Dog

I went for a walk today since I wanted to take some pictures of the local lake. I ended up walking a dog while I was at it. It wasn't my dog, nor did I get paid. It just started following me. Anyways, here are the photos.


A Barn!


I love taking pictures of nature.


Bird prints! I just love the look of dirt with all the little trails.


Water is such a wonderful thing for so many reasons. I just love it!


Its an anthill. I just thought it was cool looking.


Water! Sky! Trees!


I really like how the fence looks.


The edge of the lake where the water has receded. It is an alkili lake so you can't swim in it. But the purple things look cool.


I love the wetlands look to this. With the the grass all though the water.


The random dog saw a bird and went to get it. It flew away and the fence blocked the dog's way.


The dog is a mess but I think it had fun.

Thats all for today. I hope you enjoyed your day as much as I enjoyed mine!

The beginning

First post of my blog! Lets hope I can continue...

Welcome to my blog! Where I will talk about whatever interests me. Anything from drawing to sewing, from history to science. Just whatever hits me. So for my first post I'll post a poem I wrote. Its called School.

School,
     A place where I learned so much.
I learned what it is like
     to be in a corner all on ones own
          and have to face the world.
What it feels like
     when someone comes
          and stands in that corner beside you.
The pain
     of that person
          pushing you from behind.
The warmth
     of the hand
          that helps you back up.
The joy
     of knowing
          that they are there for you.
School can be harsh,
     but it can also be wonderful.
It made me who I am today,
     and I wouldn't change a thing.
