Stuff you don't have to read:

So, it's graduation month and as a highschooler all my senior friends are going away, unfortunately, the procrastinator that I am ended with me a day before the seniors last day with NoThInG made!! So, after frantically searching for a quick present and coming up with a blank, I decided to just go with inspiration I found from here [link]

So, after stressing about school I decided to drop the academics for the night and just crochet! First off, not the smartest idea, especially with finals like right around the corner, but that's off topic, I was doing great, first time attempting crocheting in rounds instead of a spiral and I REALLY like it! I love how it turns out so much more balanced than spirals! Unfortunately, after making the head and body, which of course I'm doing the night before I have to give it, without a pattern, and attempting a new crocheting technique, I realized my head was too small. This is NOT something I really wanted to deal with at like 8 in the night when I had SO much left, so instead of redoing the head or body, I decapitated an earlier amigurumi that I'd never put a face on, my second attempt at crocheting actually! It was gruesome work lol since at the time I didn't realllly know how to crochet and definitely didn't know how to sew pieces together, anyways, took said decapitated head and stuck it to the teddy, thankfully it had roughly the proportions I was looking for, and then after another couple hours of crocheting and sewing and hot gluing and slight panicking, I finished! Story time done!
