Hush, Love, Don't cry,
It'll be alright,
Hold me close,
As I administer the dose,
Listen to my lullaby of lies.

So, just a quick update...I was YouTubing and found this video...As soon as I heard the first line of the chorus, I erupted in a fit of laughter. Fair warning, NSFW!! If you don't know what that means, Google it...

So...I've issued a challenge...Go to the Fan Art portal, click Challenges, and scroll down. Mine is the second one from the bottom. I've already gotten 4 entries, and there are 10 participants. I've decided that I'm going to let an unbiased party judge, if theOtaku doesn't judge this...The Challenge feature is the new MONSTER feature Adam has been working on, so no one really knows just quite how it will work...I've also entered Teh Kimmeh's wallpaper challenge. Go check hers out!

So, yesterday was Daku's birthday. I gave him the book Gray's Anatomy, written in the late 1800s by Henry Gray. Daku will need it in 2 years for med school. He's 20 now...Yeah, he's 3 months younger than me...And that's the oldest any of my boyfriends have ever been!! Seriously, I've never dated a guy older than me...Anyways, I also took him out to Subway. We brought the sammiches back to the anime club meeting. At the beginning, I played an "Avatar: the Last Airbender" amv set to the Arrogant Worms' "Happy Birthday Song". I'm too lazy to add a link, so please YouTube it. It's really funny. Then we watched "Grave of the Fireflies". I recommend that movie to anyone who loves a good anime! The style is reminiscent of Hayao Miyazaki's work, but it's not a Studio Ghibli film. It was made back in the late 1980s. It's about these 2 Japanese children near the end of World War 2. Make sure you have tissues ready if you are prone to crying. It's very sad.

So, today, I mixed plaster for my first time ever. It feels like a mixture of snot and glue...No, I've never actually felt what snot and glue feel like mixed together, but I can imagine...Plaster really dries your hands out...

Later this afternoon, I'm going outside and playing with some Sidewalk Chalk. I've got a package that I've had for a year now...I've been waiting for it to get warm again, and today it's like 80 F! Back on Monday, it was like 45 F...So yeah, big temperature jump...Tonight I'm going to Joco Java, the local coffee shop, for Open Mic night. I'm hoping to read a poem of mine...Speaking of, I need to find which one I want to read!

So....HINATA'S NOT DEAD!!!! And there was much rejoicing...
*is shot for Monty Python reference*

Um...I entered Teh Kimmeh's wallpaper contest...So I'll be working on an uber-secret project...I think my idea's really kick-ass, and I don't want anyone to steal it...

I had an interesting weekend. Me and Daku followed his mom and Ceara up to Camp Formosa (a church camp 2 hours away from here) for a SCA event. It snowed off and on all day. In the morning, 4 people collapsed. They were all traveling together and had stayed in the same building (it was an overnight event). One went down, then another, then the 3rd guy collapsed, and then a fourth person...3 ambulances, 3 marked police cars, 2 unmarked police cars, and several emergency response people came out to take care of the situation. They think it was either carbon monoxide (sp?) or food poisoning. 3 of the people were released and back on site after a while, but the 3rd guy that went down had had a stroke on Monday, went into convulsions when he collapsed yesterday, and started having flashbacks of when he was in Iraq, so the hospital kept him overnight. I hope he's okay.

I finished my Teacher Education Application...Now I'm waiting to hear when my interview is set for...I've also got a test tomorrow in my World Civ 2 class...And I've gotta get some pieces together for Sophomore Review...And I've gotta do 2 charcoal portraits for one of my Education teachers...I'll be getting $30 off of that...And at some point when I have free time, I'm going to take pictures of my old Watercolor work and some of my Figure Drawing work and upload them on here...I'm not so sure about uploading the FD pictures...They're of naked girls...
