A little white star lantern, embellished with buttons and ribbon and a battery operated candle. This is my sample - I’m going to sell this craft as a KIT in my etsy shop. I’ll list it in the a.m.! 
It’ll include the lantern, 4 different ribbons, plenty of buttons, star rhinestones and sequins. It’ll also have the little tealight and I cut little paper tags to match!
I spent a couple hours at the cafe. I’m very fond of chai and mechanical pencils.
I made fresh mint tea. My last couple projects were so time-consuming, tonight I wanted to do something that would take, like, 5 minutes… And yes, it was totally easy, but at least I made something I’d never tried before. And it was lovely- to drink and to look at.
Heard from the friend who works for Japanese community paper.
The option to write on online-dating is out. OK.
He said though they always wanted someone who could write a funny essay, which I might try.
The next immediate step is to talk to my counselor on what I REALLY want to do about my career. I have made an appointment with her on Mon.
I was bummed out, so went to my favourite bakery in West Seattle and had these goodies with a good friend of mine who lent an ear to me.
Tea, sweets and girls’ talk always help.
One thing at a time.
