So.

Friday night I got really, really blue, though I'm not sure what triggered it. I just suddenly missed my step-mom, Holly, like mad. Her and I used to be pretty close, but then she and my dad moved away and then she had Aiden, so we aren't anymore. I decided to call my dad and hope to talk to her as well, but she was in Alaska for business, so I talked to my dad for like 45 minutes (which is pretty much a record for us...neither of us being the talkative type), and he tried to get me to talk to Aiden, but Aiden was too busy watching Final Fantasy VII to care, so oh well. I cannot believe Aiden is starting school in September. God, I feel old. But anyways, I guess I'll be talking to Holly this Friday, on her birthday, so it's all good, kinda.

As for stuff I have to post. Well. I went through my binder from last semester and found a few gems. Like when I wrote out the entire Papa Roach Getting Away With Murder album over the course of like...a week in chemistry class. Oh yes, I value school so much.



Then there was the pricelessness in Lit class with Tina's pink pen. And her CLASHing red. Written during the beginnings of my Emppu phase, hence the "oh em ee"...the retarded scanner cut off the bottom of that page too, but evidently I finished writing the verse.



Also in that class, I drew this ugly thing. Keep in mind that Mr.Magnifico was blithering away about poetry and kept going on and on asking us what power they had, to which I knew the answer immediately. So he finally asked me, because he saw I was busy drawing this, and so I said "Words." And then he admonished me for keeping quiet for so long. But I'm not going to voluntarily draw the entire attention of the class onto myself, so why would I speak up? But anyways, the drawing looks like poo, and I've since practiced my drawing skillz muchly. But oh well, it was good times. Tina and Angie got confused, haha.



The time when I wrote out the entire Dark Passion Play album in this trippy format. It took a VERY long time to do....WAIT! I think I may not have Meadows of Heaven! AHH! SHAME ON ME! My favourite song from that album and I never wrote it in *sniffles*.



Last but not least was the OLP Hope song which I did in Comp. Though I got the lyrics wrong in some spots, but oh well. And the guy DOES NOT have a boner, though it looks like it. My scanner either 1) caught a fold in the paper or 2) was thrown off by the looseleaf hole there.



There were more things, but I don't feel the need to share them. Actually there is one more thing, but I kind of have it on my wall, so eventually, I will scan it and you will see. If you care. Likely you don't.

AND I need to show you this. It made me laugh hysterically everytime it came up. So, you know I'm making that video for friends and family. Well, Adobe Premiere Elements scews the pictures in the preview, and look at what it did to Shanel's face:
EDIT: CRAP! The stupid thing is too small. Am going to take another screencap then, whenever I open Adobe Premiere Elements today.
EDIT 2: There we go. Now you should be able to see, Daria. Look at her eye! lol! But maybe you're right and you do need o be able to compare it to something. *shrugs*



I'm likely the only person who finds that funny, eh?

ONE last thing. I finally drew something half-decent with my drawing tablet.
Do you recognize this person?
I'm working on making a bunch of people kinda cartoon-ish. That picture was part copied, part traced and part done by my imagination (meaning the face, lol). It's really slow going because I generally lose patience before it's finished. But ohhh well. I know it isn't spectacular but COME ON! I'm just a beginner :(

I'll shut up now. Hope you all are having a fantastic weekend and yay! No school tomorrow!

AND fyi, my words of the year are "epic" and "awesomesauce".

Currently Listening: All Comes Out In the Wash by Thornley


I'd never have guessed you and I would be friends,
I'll never say never again.
I spent hours on the phone, and all the rest.
I guess I bleed the best.
And every night, it's plain to see
It wasn't meant to be.

Aww, I'm sorry you got so depressed. Wish I could have helped, but well... I'm not good at that...
On to the various scanned things:
-All I can say is wow, that is a lot of writing, and damn it why do you have such neat writing? My hand is a disgrace...
-Very pink.
-It is NOT UGLY! Gah, I could NEVER draw that well, and as far as I can tell, that's in PEN, which is a thousand times harder to get to look nice as one can't erase.
-Holy crumpets (apologies, I seem to be using various pastry foods in my exclamations as of late), that's a lot of words!!! And all SWIRLY too! Bah, you continue to amaze me with your skills.
-Purdy picture.
-I notice no strangeness, though admittedly I have nothing to compare it to...
-And I'm afraid I must admit I do not in fact recognize that person. Sorry... Though yet again, your abilities amaze me.
And awesomesauce is a wonderful word.
