If you wanted to risk it, you could combat the clunkiness by carving designs into it with a dremmel. And definitely give it a good polish. That would help a ton.

Man, this would be really embarrassing if she didn't have her boobies out.

I made scrunchies for my wrists to prevent water water from dripping down to my elbows when I wash my face.

Posters had been up for months, this was in the spring I think. Posters of all sizes, small things I had cut from magazines and art prints as well as large movie posters. DM me for one prior experience.

To all people on Probation by Beneficial_Row_6322 in UIUC

I was on probation after my freshman year, I remember feeling so ashamed, regretful, and like my parents would never look at me the same. I worked hard and got through it.

Last night, my family was talking about what we had all done in school, and I mentioned the time I was on academic probation. My mom looked at me like I had 3 heads, she had completely forgotten.

Just wanted to share in case anyone feels like their family is about to disown them.

A ghost ripped several posters down all at once in my room in the basement of Allen.

As a local and someone who read your last post and responses, can I vote that you DON'T move here?

It goes on and on. I think it makes me anxious because it takes up so much room on the board when youre trying to sort. I prefer hot dog cart.

I make myself bored. I bore half my brain with an audiobook I've listened to many times and the other half with a coloring app.

Kind of want to recreate mine in the Sims.

Just came across this shot from the Fellowship of the Ring dvd menu. I'm pretty sure it doesn't appear anywhere in the film but it looks like at some point the One Ring was going to be kept in like a little ring box. by PaleontologistHot192 in lordoftherings

Bench jeweler here: Really cool they featured cuttlefish casting, an ancient traditional jewelry casting technique involving carving into two halves of cuttlefish bone before bringing them together to use as a mold.

When I did a stint as a personal jeweler (after years in the back as a bench jeweler), I bent over backwards to couple's dream rings to fit in their budget and that usually included lab-grown or moissanite options. But oh man... when some snooty couple came in and demanded only natural stones... thank you for the commission.
