    Any Owl City Fans?

    Started almost 2 years ago · Last post over 1 year ago ·
    I love Owl City with a passion. My favorite song is the first song I ever heard from him: Designer Skyline. Every other song from him is a close second :)

    Have you heard of his other music?
    -Port Blue, Swimming with Dolphins, etc
    Just as amazing!

    Have you ever had that friend?

    Started over 2 years ago · Last post almost 2 years ago ·
    Ohh naturally.

    I met this one girl a while back. She was crazy and fun at first but then I quickly realized that she was like that ALL THE TIME.

    On top of that, she's also pretty obsessive. Calls like no tommorrow, and when I do pick up, she acts all insane on the phone. There were many awkward silences. Don't get me wrong, I love to be crazy and fun myself, but I know when to be serious too.

    I agree with what PinkWeeds said. Ignore her, and she'll get the message.

    HP7P1--Your Thoughts? (NO SPOILERS, PLEASE!)

    Started over 2 years ago · Last post over 2 years ago ·
    The film turned out to be better than what I expected.

    Although I was fairly annoyed when the audience started laughing and clapping at innapropriate moments like Bathilda's appearance..

    No matter, I am so excited for the next installment!! AHH!!

    Zombie nurse??

    Started over 2 years ago · Last post over 2 years ago ·
    I must admit, when I saw the words "zombie nurse" I thought of the nurses from Silent Hill. Scary stuff.

    But anyway, dye it if you can, or just make due with a white one and "zombie-ify" it up with the shreding, blood, and whatnot.

    Fimo color-blending woes. :(

    Started over 2 years ago · Last post over 2 years ago ·
    Oooo I hate it when my clay gets too hard or too soft.

    What I do with hardened clay is place it by my heater. It warms them up pretty well and them I can mould it. And when clay gets too soft, I chuck it in the refrigerator. I don't know about fimo, but I use sculpey.
    Note that if you leave clay out unprotected, like in the sun, the clay kind of "cooks" itself. So make sure your clay is in a protected spot.

    Oh yeah, and with pastels. I only buy white, tan, dark brown,and black clay. I make my own colors using oil pastels. If I wanted a pink lets say, Ill take some shavings off of the red pastel and mix it with my white clay until I get the perfect shade of rose pink!

    Hope I helped!

    Christmas Presents... what are you making this year?

    Started over 2 years ago · Last post over 2 years ago ·
    I really need to start thinking about Christmas presents early because instead of buying things, I like to make gifts for people. :)

    Mmm, well, Im thinking about making a ton of emotion themed cds for the music lover friend of mine. Of course, Im making each cd case and decorating it according to the genre.

    For my best friends, Im working on a mini scrapbook of all our adventures together, pics and all!

    For the really girlie friends of mine, Im planing on making them some little cute plushies, lip gloss with their favorite scent, lotions, perfume, aaand of course Im going to glam up the containers xD

    Bracelets, necklaces, rings, all with charms that I like to make out of polymer clay. Care packages with play dough when they are bored, a small stuffed animal for comfort, a cd to relax to, and candy for the they want a snack...the list in my mind goes on and on.. Wow this was a long post!


    OH! And there are tons of tutorials to do all these things online and on CO+K!

    Couture Fashion By a 10-Year-Old??

    Started about 3 years ago · Last post over 2 years ago ·
    Oooo a growing designer by 10?

    There is no doubt that Cecilia has the talent and drive, but I kind of was annoyed when she said "I have to have this..I can't live without it." It reminded me of my little hedonistic cousin, the one with the loud valley girl voice. BUT Cecilia is 10, and a little girl at that.

    Hopefully in a few years her clothes will have only but improved!

    Thanks for clearing up the confusion PinkWeeds!


    And as for the song, I rate a 8.10!
    I love the smoothness of the melody and the singer's voice is sultry. Although at times her voice clashed with the instrumentals just slightly in my opinion.

    I like the sound in this song. The music video made me smile :)

    Dear my Generation:

    Started over 2 years ago · Last post over 2 years ago ·
    I love that this topic was created. I totally agree with Jessi.

    Im 17 years old, and I graduate this spring (yay 2011!)

    There are people in my high school that think they are all that.
    I go to school in a pretty well off neighborhood and so not only do I have to deal with immature people , I have to deal with superficial immature people with money. I can't tell you how many stories I have heard of dealing with drugs and alchohol parties.
    It doesn't matter what kind of clique they are in, there are immature people everywhere. There are kids who try to be a rebel and to be completely unique but end up looking foolish as they blame their loudspastic actions on being "hyper". There are kids who seem to think they are "totally the shiz" and treat other people with contempt, and this goes with not only social standing but with ethnictiy as well! RIDICULOUS!

    Ughh! In my neighborhood, all the little 6 year olds have phones. I DIDN'T GET A PHONE UNTIL I WAS 16. How the heck does a girl spend 2000 dollars on clothes alone each year? Why do I know of three girls (my age mind you) that are or have been pregnant???
    I am fed up with the disrespect, the obscenity, and the thought process that acting like a hyperactive loud child makes you "unique". When will kids learn that actions have consequences?? (probably never..)

    It makes me want to throw tables.

    But it feels great to let this off my chest.

    Hey, so I found this fun little game on a music website somewhere and I decided to start it on CO+K!


    Here's how to play:

    I shall post a song.

    The next person will rate the song out of 10
    (0 being the worst and 10 being the awesomest) and they will also post a song for the next person to rate!

    IT SHALL GO ON AND ON AND ON AND ON AND ON.

    I have found a lot of good music through this haha:)

    After all, one of the best gifts of all is the gift of music!


    Okay, here we go.

    What music do you listen to when crafting?

    Started over 3 years ago · Last post almost 3 years ago ·
    Hhhmmmmehh.

    I listen to anything depending on my mood.
    But usually, my crafting soundtrack consists of jazz, electronic/electropop, downtempo kind of music.

    My current favorite!

    one of those books you just can't put down

    Started over 4 years ago · Last post over 2 years ago ·
    *Yes Harry Potter is totally AWESOME :)

    I recently read The Monstrumologist by Rick Yancey. It's a horror fiction book that I found absolutely enticing.

    The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini was a book that I read almost in one sitting; it was so engaging.

    The Gemma Doyle Trilogy by Libba Bray was a series that I LOVED.

    I know I have more favorites, but I can't remember them right now...

    Think outside the box Q&A!

    Started over 4 years ago · Last post over 2 years ago ·
    Good question. Thousands of years ago due to the constant strain of the weather, llamas decided to drastically change the food chain to fit their appetite: the wondrous grakou bean. Due to the amazing healing qualities and ability to turn into edible gold, the llamas had to hide their hoard of magical beans from all of the animal kingdom and humanity. However, eventually the geological explorers of that age (through their clandestine spy intelligence, the surreptitious squirrels) captured the secret docking base of the llamas who by then had been importing the beans underground from the Galapagos Islands to disperse to other llamas in the Americas and ultimately the WORLD. Ever since, their change in food, llamas have held a blood feud against humanity, forever spitting as an act of insult to humanity whenever reminded of their beloved grakou bean..

    Poor llamas.

    Why IS a raven like a writing desk? :P

    Decorating my room?

    Started almost 3 years ago · Last post almost 3 years ago ·
    WELLS, I don't know what your style is but here is what I did.

    I decorated one side of my wall with photos that I took with my friends and random things. Instead of one HUGE picture frame, I made a grouping of different sized pics. It looks pretty cool:)

    And while digging in my basement, I found some leftover picture frames. I spray painted them white and use them as jewelery holders.

    Other random ideas that I have been meaning to try:
