Okay. Yeah. It's been a while. It's not that I haven't been doing creative things! I swear I have a few things. But I just haven't had time to blog each week about it. It has gotten ridiculously busy these past couple of weeks with midterms, and now I doubt that things are going to ease up very much. Yay life.
=(
I'll try!

Zombehs! Kind of...
My creativity for the week:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/58094113@N06/sets/72157625804768680/
I went through and edited the remaining photos from The Nachzehrer, a film my boyfriend directed and shot last semester. I hope you enjoy! Also, I did have creativity for last week. I made Valentines Day Brunch from scratch (French Toast, Eggs in Baskets, Bacon, Sticky Toffee Pudding aaaaand Chocolate covered strawberries!), but we ate it too quickly so I do not have any photos, boo.
Things have been getting so busy lately. I haven't had much time to really be creative or even have the will to do something. I'm trying through, I really am! This is how life always ends up though - unplanned, and in my case, full of thinking "Yes, I'll do that!"but never really getting around to it. I need to be better in life, and take it into my own hands. I'll stop skipping class and wasting hard-earned money. I'll start doing my homework early and not let things pile up on me. I'll plan out ideas more fully.
Or...should I just let things be and see where they take their course? Vague goals have always been my thing, but I've been reconsidering them lately. Right now, I think I need rigid action. I need a strict course to follow and from that, fruition follows.

The feast
More pictures to follow. Essentially, I ended up creating a feast for 15 people. Hoo-rah.
The first thing I did was prepare the fish to be steamed. I have never steamed or really touched a dead and raw fish in my life before. Or stuffed anything. So I cut up some garlic, onions and scallions and stuffed it into poor Mr. Fishy, who I had washed and patted down. Thankfully, he was already cleaned and gutted, so I didn't have to deal with the disgusting things!

I stuffed him full of a handful of the mixture, then spread the rest on the plate. The fish was placed atop it and I cut up some more to put on top. I also added lemon juice, adobo, a little bit of ginger powder, salt and pepper to the outside and put it into the steamer.
I let it steam for about 20 minutes, and it seemed about done. The only issue I had was that during that time, an air bubble/hump formed above the head and next to the gills of the fish. Cancerous? =(
I'll post more when I can!
EDIT
Me and Mr Fishy before I stuffed him full of stuff! :D
