jean dilemma

i want a sewing machine. i don't know why i didn't get one before but for someone who spends around $15-20 just to get jeans hemmed by a pro, i should've learned how to hem jeans on my own a long time ago. sigh! i think about random things these days, i.e. i wish i went to a sewing class instead of wasting my time stewing and being mad about certain things in the past, or i could've learned how to fix cars or went to photography school or learned how to knit a scarf...hahaha. but i'm not that great at home making. when i was in gradeschool and highschool, i always paid somebody to do my home econ projects for me. now all of a sudden i feel like it's such a critical skill to have, but really the desire to learn how to make anything with my hands or at least to sew is derived from my frustration of shelling out so much money to have some other person do it for me -- and it doesn't even come out the way i want it! anyway, i'm gonna save up for one and maybe try to hem the boyfriend jeans i got from ae. i might need to buy some thriftstore jeans to practice on...or i might just go to isang and have her do it for me heheheh. lazy bones.
