                <description><![CDATA[ Dear fellow watchers,<br />
<br />
From today (July 14) on, I am taking a break from Deviant Art. I don't know when I will be back, but I will return when I can. My life is very busy right now, and I don't have much time to get online. Thank you for your support.<br />
<br />
God bless,<br />
-Dani<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I've got tagged by ~<a class="u" href="http://shabahsaz.deviantart.com/">ShabahSaz</a> Oi... Thankx. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /> Ur so kind. Heh. (I'm just messin' with ya, lol.)<br />
<br />
Here's the rules:<br />
<br />
List 6 weird habits/things/hates about yourself and people who get tagged MUST write a journal about their 6 weird habits/things/hates as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose the next 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don't forget to leave a comment that says "you are tagged" in their devpage comments and tell them to read yours..."<br />
<br />
1: I love old music... (Like James Taylor, Joan Baez, Cat Stevens, and Tom Petty.)<br />
<br />
2: I hate clowns... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/fear.gif" width="18" height="18" alt=":fear:" title="Fear" /> ACK! Lets not go there...<br />
<br />
3: I have an odd love for sharks and megaladons... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/l/love.gif" width="23" height="16" alt=":love:" title="Love" /> I can't get enough of those beautiful, magnificent creatures!<br />
<br />
4: I can't swim in my pool alone, 'cos I am afraid of sharks and megaladons (I freak myself out sometimes. Heh.)<br />
<br />
5: When my hair is in a ponytail, I like to swish it around (random, I know...) <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":p" title=":p (Lick)" /><br />
<br />
6: I like to stick my head out of the window of the car (like my dogs do) when we are driving down the highway or road. Weeeeeeeee!<br />
<br />
Now here are my victims (next 6 people to be tagged)!!<br />

<br />
I did really well on the test, and it almost rained (but it didn't).<br />
<br />
I almost flunked it 'cos the lady who was grading me told me to go 20 mph and slam on my brakes for an emergency stop (without skidding or squeaking the brakes). So, I figured that would be pretty easy...... I accidentally sped up to 28 mph (8 mph more than I should have) and when I slammed on the brakes, they made this piercing awful screeching sound, and the lady went flying forward. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/faint.gif" width="18" height="17" alt=":faint:" title="I think I've fainted." /> I COULD HAVE DIED RIGHT THERE FROM EMBARRASSMENT!!! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /> Heh.<br />
<br />
Other than that, it went pretty well... Lol.<br />
<br />
I am sosososo happy! I can finally drive anywhere I want!! This is sooo amazing! I feel so free. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/winkrazz.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";p" title="Wink/Razz" /> Free to spread my wings and fly!<br />
<br />
So watch out everyone! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/m/mwahaha.gif" width="29" height="15" alt=":evillaugh:" title="EVIL Laughter!" /> The Dani has been unleashed! Whazah! <br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Wahooo!!!!!!! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/boogie.gif" width="25" height="25" alt=":boogie:" title="Boogie!" /> Yeah, baby! The graduation party was totally da bomb!!! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/w00t.gif" width="23" height="23" alt=":w00t:" title="w00t!" /><br />
<br />
Everyone looked absolutely amazing, and they loved my dress. They also liked the necklace that I made (yeah, I make jewelry too). My mom let me wear one of my great grandma's best bracelets that was made of white gold and diamonds!<br />
<br />
It was sooo fun! I had such a blast! The food was great and so was the dancing! Everyone had a great time! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=D" title="=D (Big Grin)" /> Lol, the band wasn't that great tho, but who really cared... We had a kick outa' them ta boot!<br />
<br />
It couldn't have gone any better. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/aww.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":aww:" title="Aww" /> My parents were so nice to do this for me! *Huggies to them*<br />
<br />
A funny thing that happened was when some of my friends dared this guy (named Micah) to get up in front of the entire resturant and do the robot (it's a type of dance). He was too chicken, so I asked my friends what they would give me if I were to do that dance in front of the everyone. One girl bet me a dollar, <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=D" title="=D (Big Grin)" /> and that was enough motivation for me. <br />
<br />
So when the band began playing their next song, I GOT UP INFRONT OF THE ENTIRE BAND, RESTAURANT, AND STAGE AND BEGAN DANCING LIKE A ROBOT!!! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wow.gif" width="23" height="15" alt=":wow:" title="Wow!" /> I was the only one up there too!!!!<br />
<br />
While I was doin' the robot, all these people (whom I did not know) stood up and began laughing like crazy. I kept on doin' it, and a lady jumped up with her video camera and recorded me dancing!<br />
<br />
I got crazy (of course) and began doin' it in all directions and twirling and all these people were crackin' up! By now, the waiters and waitresses had stopped their work to watch me do my solo dance. My friends were laughing soooooo hard ('cos they didn't think I was brave enough to do it). <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/winkrazz.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";p" title="Wink/Razz" /> I had the entire restaurant was watching me do the robot! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wow.gif" width="23" height="15" alt=":wow:" title="Wow!" /> IT WAS AWESOME!<br />
<br />
What's even more funny is that I've never done the robot before in my life! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/blushes.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":blushes:" title="Blush" /> I completely wung it, and I did it all wrong and opposite to the rhythm of the song. I guess it's "Dani's Robot Dance". Lol! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/g/giggle.gif" width="17" height="15" alt=":giggle:" title="Giggle" /> I danced  like that until the song ended.<br />
<br />
So now I'm a dollar richer, and have a great video of it all! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/winkrazz.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";p" title="Wink/Razz" /> Ooowah!<br />
<br />
I'll upload some pics and details soon, k? Oi... I have ta get to bed... I went to bed at 2:30 am last night... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/faint.gif" width="18" height="17" alt=":faint:" title="I think I've fainted." /> I'm tired.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Ooogh... Life has been crazy... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/faint.gif" width="18" height="17" alt=":faint:" title="I think I've fainted." /><br />
<br />
I've been sick with a shomach flu for 1 and a half days now... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/sick.gif" width="32" height="18" alt=":sick:" title="Sick" /> It's been HORRIBLE... Over that short period of time, I have lost 7 lbs, and am feeling really Really REALLY sick right now... I've gotta get back into bed... I don't even know why I am up right now...<br />
<br />
Golle, I haven't even been able to get out of bed the whole day, and even watching TV or drawing or reading (or anything other than lieing around) has made me feel extremely nauseous! I can't even hardly move right now, and I can't eat anything...<br />
<br />
Also, last week I had a really high fever (actually it was a week ago to the day) and I missed my final fencing tornament... I'd been practicing all week for it too... I'm really bummed.<br />
<br />
I appologize for not being able to get on DA much recently... School finals have pushed me to the limit, and boy were they hard! I spent hours and hours studying with my dad... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/reading.gif" width="16" height="20" alt=":reading:" title="reading" /><br />
<br />
Also, since school is now over (I started my summer vacation 2 days early 'cause of my sickness), I don't know when I'll be able to post up any new artwork. The scanner that I use to put up my pictures is at school, and so now I can't use it ('cause school is over). I'm hoping to buy one soon from all the money I am making teaching art lessons... I have a TON of pictures that are waiting to be put up on DA. SO, I haven't been lazy or slacking or anything. No worries, K? <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /><br />
<br />
I've recently written a TON of poetry too (out of my frusteration), so I'll post up the "nice" bits that I have written soon.<br />
<br />
Life has been abnormally hectic for me too...... I guess I'm just in need of some encouragement... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/c/cries.gif" width="23" height="15" alt=":cries:" title="Waaaah!" /> Hopefully it'll all get better soon.<br />
<br />
Anyhoo, I give you all my deepest appologies... I just haven't been myself lately... I'm sorry. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/d/depressed.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":depressed:" title="Depressed" /><br />

<br />
This seemed like a fun quiz, so I decided to give it a whirl...<br />
<br />
A) First, recommend me:<br />
1. a movie<br />
2. a book<br />
3. a musical artist, song, or album:<br />
<br />
I promise I'll try to see / read / listen to it.<br />
<br />
B) Ask me three questions (if you want), no more, no less. Ask me anything you want. I'll answer it (even if it's a juicy secret).<br />
<br />
C) Go to your journal, copy and paste this allowing your friends to ask you anything... if you want...<br />
<br />
Lol... I don't know what I'm getting into... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /> Come on! Ask me what u've always wanted to know about me! I DARE YA! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/l/lol.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":lol:" title="LOL" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Yay! We went to a dog show last Saturday (4-14-07) to show our dogs, and wound up getting another one! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=D" title="=D (Big Grin)" /><br />
<br />
My Jackrussel Terrier won 1st place in the "Bark On Command" competition, and 2nd place in the "Best Tricks" competition! It was sooo close to winning first place on the "Best Tricks" though.<br />
<br />
So, as we left, my dad wanted to check out some dogs that were in cages and up for adoption. Before I knew it, my parents had bought me a dog of my very own! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/aww.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":aww:" title="Aww" /> Yeah, he's all mine for once and I don't have to share him with my brother (he sleeps in my room too). Also, this newspaper reporter was walking by and we got our picture taken for the paper!<br />
<br />
The dog I got is a mix of a Greyhound, Red Bone Hound, and has some Collie in him too. Don't get me wrong... He's really cute and has oooper long legs for running.<br />
<br />
So, I named the dog "Rascal" because he looked mischievous, but the other day I changed his name to "Roscoe". Haha! It's such a coincidence because the name "Roscoe" is german for "Race Dog"! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=D" title="=D (Big Grin)" /> It fits him perfectly.<br />
<br />
The day after we got him, we chased after him through a cow pasture by our house (while still in our PJ's) for like 45 minutes... A little later, he got out again (after I ran 2 miles with him), and we chased him 4 miles down a dirt road... Oi...<br />
<br />
We figured out he was a real wild and dare-devilish dog... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/furious.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":furious:" title="Furious" /> Yeah... He can jump over the 4 foot tall fence in our back yard! He leaps over it like a gazelle! It's hilarious!<br />
<br />
Then the other day, he got out, and we chased him all over with our car. We finally gave up, and when we turned around, he chased us all the way home. Then he paraded around the outside of the backyard howling like a coyote and got my other dogs all wild and upset. He's obsessed with chasing cars and cats... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /><br />
<br />
He got out again and tried to chase our car when we were trying to leave for fencing lessons... We had to hide from him and slip out of our driveway when he was behind the backyard...<br />
<br />
Now we have him on a dog run, and today when we left for school, he ran as fast as he could towards the fence (to try and jump it) and then did a back flip or a 360 in the air and landed on his feet! (We had to put a harness on him so he wouldn't hurt his neck.) It was sooo amazing, because he did that like 8 times!!<br />
<br />
So, now I have a wild and crazy dog that likes to run around and get in trouble... My dad says that Roscoe matches my personality... I haven't a clue on what he's talking about though. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/winkrazz.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";p" title="Wink/Razz" /> Lol!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ WHAZAH! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/n/ninjabattle.gif" width="91" height="23" alt=":ninjabattle:" title="Ninja Battle!" /> I love swordfighting!<br />
<br />
I just recently joined a fencing class at a comunity collage near my house! (Fencing as in sword fighting... not digging holes in the ground for fence-poasts... duh...)<br />
<br />
So, anywayz, the first class was yesterday (4-10-07) and we just worked on basic footwork, and how to walk correctly. I'm also learning some French too... Pah-le-vu-France? Yeah, I dont know if thatz how u spell it <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/blushes.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":blushes:" title="Blush" /> <br />
<br />
My apologies for all the horrible spelling I was never that good at it heh-heh <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /><br />
<br />
Anyhoo, I just love fencing! Its sooo fun (even though I havent been able to train with a sword yet). Theres just something about jumping around that makes me feel happy Yeah, Im weird and proud of it! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/l/lol.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":lol:" title="LOL" /> Lol!<br />
<br />
So, on other news My uncle (over spring break) has taught me to engrave my artwork into stone! Yeah, I use a dremal tool with a special end to it. My first engraving was of a hummingbird with flowers all around it. Then I was bored one afternoon, and slipped in a fairy in the corner and added more flowers. (Sorry, I couldn't resist... If I had it my way, I would have slipped in an elf or two, but 'yall might have thought I was mental or somfin'...) U dont really notice the fairy at first though <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/aww.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":aww:" title="Aww" /> Its real cool.<br />
<br />
Im currently working on an engraving of 2 fairies. The girl is kneeling on a leaf, and looks sad, and the guy is swooping down to her, with his hand extended to lift her up. She is looking upward to him, with hope in her eyes. I have flowers all around Its really pretty. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=D" title="=D (Big Grin)" /> The scene is so kawaii.... I can't wait to finish it...<br />
<br />
So, after I engrave the image into the stone, then I paint over them, and add color Whew! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /> In the end it looks amazing! I cant wait to get some pictures up on Deviant Art. Im sososo excited!<br />
<br />
So, thatz basically what Ive been up to lately <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/aww.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":aww:" title="Aww" /> Hopefully I havent bored u too much with my hobbies Lol!<br />
<br />
Catch ya l8ter! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/hug.gif" width="38" height="15" alt=":hug:" title="Hug" /><br />

<br />
~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br />
<br />
Uh.... So now what... I guess I could tell u somfin' really random... I have recently vowed to jog 1-3 miles a day! Yeah, I've been doing that for almost 2 weeks, and wow! What a difference it's made! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/w00t.gif" width="23" height="23" alt=":w00t:" title="w00t!" /> Now I can jog a mile now without even getting too out of breath. Actually, I just got back from jogging 2 1/2 miles, and I feel so... uh... hot and tired! U know, jogging is not only a great source of excersize, but it's great for removing stress too! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/e/explosion.gif" width="28" height="18" alt=":explosion:" title="Explosion" /><br />
<br />
So, yeah.<br />
<br />
Life has just been sososo crazy for me right now... Crazier than it's ever been!! I'm just trying to get through these days... (See my mood emoticon...)<br />
<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Needing the Attention: Christmas Present to Others and not to Yourself<br />
<br />
I want you guys to try a little harder, for when I DO add more things to my gallery, to leave a comment. A simple comment. Let me know how much you really care about my hardwork. You don't really HAVE to, but I would like it. It encourages me and inspires me to do more with my stuff, and possibly at a faster rate. I've checked my things and I see soooo many views for it, but like 3 comments, and maybe only 1 fav.<br />
Thats not really my problem.<br />
My problem is that from how it looks, its like all people do is look, think, and move on. If that.<br />
People on here are just not taking the time to leave a little comment for the artists, and I don't really like the way deviantart has become because of it. The more popular people are, the more comments and things they get. Naturally thats how it is anyway, but thats ALL it is anymore it seems. Every now and then I see people leaving comments, but I just feel like people are not putting the time into stating their opinions about other's hard work when the art really deserves good comments. I go and browse random stuff and comment on them because I like them or they amuse me or anything in general. I read other's poetry and stories and try to leave comments. I may not do this for everyone, but at least I try. ^^ For the remainder of December, I will be on here soley to read, look, COMMENT and fav the artworks of others (other than the questions journal I will be doing). It's my christmas present to others and I hope that people will appreciate me for it, because I don't have the money to spend on everyone. Maybe try that yourself? A few days a week if you have the time?<br />
<br />
It only takes a minute or two to leave a simple gesture that you, as an individual, saw someone's work. Whether if you know it or not, comments really do make a difference. So try to show others how much you care about their hard work, let them boost their confidence into improving themselves for the better.<br />
<br />
Remember... you have 24 days left!<br /><br /> ]]></description>
