Acquired Skill of the Week: French Braids

The only braiding I could do before this was the very basic three-part one, so I focused on learning the French braid. Good thing my cousin has long hair and didn't mind sitting uncomfortably for prolonged periods of time. Once I'd thought I got the basics of French braiding down, I proceeded to play around.

Today I decided I needed to change the way this blog looks. The background image was something off of the stock photos, and a bit too literal for my taste considering it's title. So I took a picture I had drawn in the middle of a sleepless night last week and decided I wanted for it to be the background, see?

I didn't worry too much about my grammar either.
