I won the EA pumpkin carving contest with my pumpkin that I carved until around 4:30 AM this morning!
I know that yesterday I said it wasn’t a big deal if I won, but winning (even if it was just by applause) did make me happy. I got two movie tickets, a random book, and the appreciation of my peers.
I also helped the MySims team sweep the three categories we competed in: pumpkin carving, male costume, and group costume.
OK, here are the pumpkin pictures I promised, with a timeline of last night:
9:34 PM: pumpkin gutted
11:13 PM: pattern transferred onto pumpkin
2:38 AM: half done, Violet carved
4:40 AM: all done!
So, I’m off to bed a bit early tonight and hoping to sleep most of tomorrow morning. But, it was all worth it. The pumpkin looks great and I got free movie tickets. Also, I really enjoy taking the time to carve tiny details into a gourd.
