Second hand doll Opening and Review: Dal Coral (with Video)

I got this Dal Coral second hand at the doll show 47. She isn't perfect as she has some melting under her chin and she is also missing her head piece. But she was really cheap so that's alright. Also the melting isn't really visible unless you look under her chin which isn't really an obvious place. It doesn't appear on pictures even when taken from a lower angle.

I think she is a very sweet doll. I would love to find her head accessory though, as I prefer to have my doll complete. She is the perfect little sister for Callie and Cassie.

If you haven't seen the review of my twin girls you can check: Cassie and Callie.

Teaching myself the piano: Day 1 (with video)

Finally, this is my first practice for this daily log. I worked on Brother which is from an episode of "Criminal Minds" untitled "Coda" and Comptine d'un autre été from the movie "Le Fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain" which is called "Amelie" in English I think.

I could play "Comptine d'un autre été" before but I forgot. It will probably come back quickly as it always does. It just required a bit of practice and it's a bit painful on my left hand so that might take a few days.

I'm not really yet comfortable playing "Brother" for some reason I think some of the notes sound weird. I wonder if the score I have are the same than the one from the video I watched on youtube. I'll have to see if I can check that out and fix what I need to have it play the same way in my memory and on the piano.

Sample doll Opening and Review: Dal Galla (with video)

Dal Galla is another sample doll I bought at the groove head quarter sample sale.

She is one very unique Dal as there is no doll with that sort of fiery flamenco outfit. She is not entirely flamenco though, her head piece remind me of a swan and she is wearing ballerina shoes so she can be from a red swan lake.

Her Theme is totally black and red. She is wearing a black and red dress with golden embroidery.

Her quote is: 32 fouettes en tournant, Jump, Raise the leg 48 degrees, And elegantly fly in the air!!!

I don't think they meant fouettes so, I think they meant pirouettes.

About the music in this video:  (from musopen.org) The Doce danzas españolas (Twelve Spaniard dances) for piano is a series of pieces written by Enrique Granados. The exact composition date of the pieces is unknown, though Granados himself stated that he wrote the majority of them when he was 16 (in 1883). These dances display influences from a variety of Spanish genres, and, consequently, lend themselves to being arranged as guitar pieces, which has been done multiple times.

This piece is in the public domain under creative common. It can be found here.

Vlog #41 Two days in one vlog, they changed all the colors (with video)

I had a very small vlog day so I decided to way and put it at the beginning of this video on another day vlog. So that's a two days in one video so it's a bit longer than usual.

I went shopping for yarn even though I didn't film at the store, and it seems that they changed all the yarn color, I'm not sure why, that might be a season thing. There were a few from the previous color only. I'm not sure if I like it. In a way it's good because I can work with different colors but on the other way the color present at the store this time around weren't very shiny but rather pale in comparison to what they previously had. I don't know what I'll do with them except for a few care bears.
