                <description><![CDATA[ ....Warning.........angry 18 year old rant taking place....<br />
<br />
So this month, my bandwidth expires 3.5 weeks early, totally blank boxing everything on my lj and taking hollowskies offline for the same amount of time. Then some girl thinks I've stolen her video clips, which were posted on another site, where I had no knowledge they were hers and she goes all "I'm talking to a 3rd grader" on me. I'm 18, most likely the same age you are; I make avatars, I place work here; I know how bad theft is and how unoriginal: Therefore, talk to me as an adult and don't jump to conclusions. I removed the pieces she had a problem with, pending finding out if they're really hers and its just such a big crappy mess. I think its really surprising though that the things she has a problem with have been offline due to the bandwidth problem; that means she must have seen it at least two weeks ago, and is just telling me now. Worse, the girl and site where I got the clips is a good friend and I hate thinking she would do something like this. What's really funny, I just got my dvd ripper and ipod converter, so there's no need to go looking for clips anymore. And this just makes me not want to watch the movie the clips are from; thanks for ruining that for me. Whatever, I'm done with it now.<br />
<br />
...rant over...<br />
<br />
So anyway, I get to reread Jane Eyre for Brit Lit. I'm so happy! You know me...I think I was a fangirl of Mr. Rochester even before I was one for Mr. Darcy. I think I might actually make it through ap calc all year. I got a B for the first semester and was very happy. I only have a chapter to finish in my reread of "All Quiet on the Western Front" and then next week we start "Heart of Darkness" for ap english. For those who had it last year, do you remember "Silence of the Yams"? Yes, "Things fall apart" is one of our outside reading options. I laughed so hard when I saw that. <br />
<br />
As for art...yeah, I've done a few paintings and took pictures of them to add here, but I just don't have the time right now to do anything but read. Also, there are a few pictures I should upload and I want to clean the gallery up a bit. All in all, hopefully things will quiet  down and I can get to work.<br />
<br />
Thanks for listening, I really needed it. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well, I thought that its been long enough, I should return to some life around here. Last night was the first snow fall of the year and it was one of the most beautiful things I've ever experienced. Les Mis went wonderful! I have a few pictures I'll put up as soon as possible. <br />
<br />
As for Thanksgiving: Dad and I watched the Macy's parade and complained about it all the way through until Santa showed up. We're going over to my Aunt's house for dinner and that makes about 12 people there. Boy won't that be fun...NOT. Remember, I don't remember family holidays with more then 4 people and two cats. <br />
<br />
I can't wait to go see Pride and Prejudice. OMG. Do-me-hot Darcy and Keria Knightley, what more could a girl want in a Jane Austin movie? Other then more kiss scenes then normal. lol. Anyway, the hour drive to my aunt's will give me time to listen to the Jekyll and Hyde Musical Cd, which, by the way, is what I'm completely in love with at the moment. <br />
<br />
I have a ton of art to update with and a ton of homework to do, plus a thanksgiving dinner to amuse people at, so yeah. Hopefully everything will be done pretty soon. And oh yeah-<br />
<br />
Happy Thanksgiving! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Okay, as usaul, I have time to write on this thing when I'm so angry I see red; but anyway, here comes a very long half-assed rant so, if you want to read it...<br />
<br />
Play pratice isn't the problem, the problem is the teachers and people here at the school. I find that most of them hold a total lack to respect for the students and their jobs. They shouldn't be teaching. Period. These people are completely horrible and rude and honestly completely stupid. I've learned nothing new in the last 2 months of school and frankly I'm fustrated and have no way of telling anyone who will listen and change the problems.<br />
<br />
Ack! Movie's on a good part....rant dying..... ]]></description>

I have a essay to write, a political science current event to do and a pumpkin chunkin project to look up and go visit with the family tomorrow. I listening to an old mix tape I made and can't believe how much I still love it. wow, had deja vous 4 times today. That was crazy. Everything's going really good, minus the fact I have no new art to show anyone. Oh well. Anyway...<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ For some reason, I've been very nastolgic theses last few days and in some kind of a slump, actually. I seem to sit at the piano for 2 to 3 hours just playing everything in sight I can play. I've torn through 2 elvis books, 5 love song books, and countless pieces of sheet music: mostly playing Moonlight Sonata and Fur Elise constantly. Then when I'm not at the piano I'm at my deer old computer listening to Eva Cassidy and Frank Sinatra. I guess its the fact that schools going to start again and summer was eventful, but not in the ways I thought it could be.<br />
<br />
Went and had a consultation done for my senior pictures today. I take them on the 18th and might be able to shadow intern at the photographers this comming term. (We have a great idea for my extra pose, but I'm not telling yet. T'would be awesome.) Now, if I would just get my schedual so I can change it. Tomorrow I go in and get my hair cut and I might get highlights too. Maybe that's what's wrong. Every time I get my hair cut I feel like I'm losing the magic that comes with long hair. Name one princess that had short hair? lol.<br />
<br />
Good Lord! They have school plays and musicals here. I suppose I should try out don't you think? lol. Anyway, I'm missing some people back home very badly and I have this sudden erge to call them up and say, "Hey, meet you at Borders in 10 mins." But alas! This can never be.<br />
<br />
Anyway, I'm off to sleep (I think) and welcome home to all my crazy friends who are back from Europe! I hope you had the time of yours lives because you have school in 8 days! ]]></description>

I would like people to realize that though I never offically spoke with <a href="http://jark.deviantart.com">Jark</a> I know the deep dedication he has had for dA the past 5 years as a founder and the powerful effects of his termination.<br />
<br />
I proved the link to <a href="http://the88s.deviantart.com/">here</a><br />
<br />
If you believe Jark's terimantion was wrong or, are at least very angry with the current CEO's explantations and running of dA in this mannor: <b>Please DO NOT post any new art on deviantART's brithday -- AUGUST 7, 2005</b><br />
<br />
I asure you, I won't. <a href="http://fark.deviantart.com">Jark</a>, you will be missed as a leader here on deviantART. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So, nothing much new in life. Its been rainning like nothing I've ever seen before. It rained solid all night and threw most of the morning today. Which means that I've been setting around watching movies and doing absolutely nothing. The fourth of July was amazing! The fireworks went on for 30 mins and it looked like it was the finale the whole time. I can tell I'm not in Ca anymore when they have fireworks spelling "God bless America" and resterants have placemats with the 6 different Orthadox prayers on them. Its not bad, just something I'm not used to. <br />
<br />
I've been doing a ton of pencil stuff that I really like, but the scanner isn't going to be up and running for a while. As people can tell, I'm starting back up on the photomanipulation juckit again. Most likely, it will last a while and then dissolve into the grey matter of space like always. I'm thinking about cleaning up the gallery again, seeing what I can get myself into. ]]></description>

I never thought I'd be this sentimental, but it really wasn't home until all of my junk was thrown around my new room.  I have much dA news to report and update, but right now I feel horriblily inactive and everyone else is painting the living room. Ack! What do I care. These next few weeks I dedicate to upadting everything online I've neglected for the last few months. I love the layout over at s-d, so that's staying, but I will be working very hard on everything else! <br />

Oh and call me, text me, send pictures to me on my new call phone! I miss ya crazies! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Hey all! Though updating would be  amazingly smart seeing as I did get  back from Ashland....<br />
<br />
Anyway, I got Photoshop CS yesterday.  Not so sure what's new a different, but  it looks pretty. Then my computer goes  and gets a hicup! The windowsXP themes  won't work and it looks like I have  windows98. I know how I should fix this  problem, but that way won't work, so I  have to call the people out from Dell  to fix it very soon because the dell  people on the phone are completely  stupid. <br />
<br />
Don't feel so hot right now, I think I  might venture home pretty soon to sleep. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ There are dreams I have. No, not yours;  mine.<br />
<br />
<u>C'est la vie</u><br />
I've been ready for this change the  last few days, months really. And now  that its happend my life feels in  perfect overload. I love this feeling  that <b>nothing</b> could stop me. Did stay  honest and am got going out to play  commando tonight as planned. Besides,  my mother would have found out and  completely killed me and anything  thoughts of freedom I've ever had. So  there ya go. Tomorrow however, I will  tread on the seriously nerdy side of  life and join in at a Star Wars  marathon. I can't wait! Spring Break  has begun! Let me at it!<br />
<br />
<u>dA art</u><br />
Um yeah, not much and a great deal of  mush is sitting in my computer's  deepest, darkest sectors of its ram. I  feel insipred though, so not many  worries. I have a week.<br />
<br />
And my dream kick's your dreams ass. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ <b>dA</b><br />
Much <b>unexpectedness</b> around here. A year  has come and gone, and passed by, yet I  said nothing. I suppose that's me in my  comical way of making something my own  by not talking about it. <br />
<br />
A few weeks ago, I found the fractual  program! I finally made something worth  putting up tonight at 12:14 in the  morning. But hey it works.<br />
<br />
Harry Potter fanart is flying off the  perverbal photoshop shelf. It shall be  over at s-d when the damn FTP will work  properly. (Most likely after the rain  storms)<br />
<br />
<b>Life</b><br />
I've <b>unexpectedly</b> gotten very close to  my <a href="http://www.livejournal.com/users/_lovelygirl">lj</a> and I've seen the return of my  Harry Potter movement. Which is  something of a good thing for the  creativity does follow where ever 'Arry  Potter doth go. lol. Many more updates  over there then anywhere. (Friending me  is very welcome. I'll friend you back.)<br />
<br />
Life is moving in a new way for me. I  suppose, it's the same as every year,  this last race to the summer months and  the return of that freedom I have lost.  I must admit, I've been bad and I  haven't been doing anything for the  Musical. It's been one of the things so  away from my mind I couldn't tell you  when we have practice. I do feel really  bad about that. <br />
<br />
I've been having this dream. I'm  sitting at a cafe, my hot coffee  whisping steam to the above, and  writing. Everything is damp, the rain  has just fallen and soon it shall start  again. This brings a small smile to my  face. Again I'm writing and I'm  inraptured in the sheer bliss of my pen  flowing arcoss the paper. Buses,  trucks, small sports cars wiz by: yet  nothing incompasses my attention like  the words coming from my mind. I get to  the last page. A voice calls my name  with a thick, deep laugh and I look up.  And then I wake up.  It means  something, I've had it too many times,  for it not to mean something.<br />
<br />
This post was <b>unexpected</b>. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ The sun is shinning through my little  clouded window and bring me a beautiful  day! I'm so happy with this morning and  it feels like something has been lifted  off me, don't know what, but just  something that now I can jump and dance  and sing for as along as I want. I'm so  completely happy! It's an unadulterated  joy that I've never really connected to  a bright sunny day. I guess I needed  today.<br />
<br />
<b>Online News</b><br><br />
Poor dA I've not really beeen adding  new art. I think that's simply just  becuase I've been so extreamly busy  with <a href="http://www.twi-light.info">Twi-Light.info</a> and getting  everything ready over there. Hopefully,  it will be up by tomorrow. <br />
<br />

<br />
All my brother wanted for Christmas is  an X-Box. This morning at 9:30 I and my  mom were at the mall's software store  and we waited for 4.5 hours till the  UPS guys came with six. We were first  on the list and my brother better cry  his bloody little eyes out Christmas  morning. My mom and dad are so happy,  and that means so am I.<br />
<br />
Art Update:<br />
Very busy with new twi-light.info  layout and small novel project. Plus  the merry Christmas pack of on-line  friends. Hopefully new  manips/photography soon. <br />
<br />
Other Life Update:<br />
The party was wonderful! Thanks to  everyone! And... Next week might be a  trip to Penn. Which means b-day will be  spent with family for the first time in  12 years. Very...something. If not,  whole day of family activites planned  and I can't go to another party. Darn.  Was very sad about that.<br />
<br />
<b>Merry Christmas!</b> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Ah! Here's my update for the big bash--<br />
<br />
1st- found my dress, two actually. Very  pretty can't decide.<br />
2nd- MUST get b-day gifts ready for  other B-day girls.<br />
3rd- here's a little list if people  needed it for me...<br />
<br />
Timeline<br />
Bridget Jones' Diary<br />
Nicholas Nickleby (last <i>two</i> newest  version)<br />
Count of Monte Cristo (new version)<br />
History of the World/ Monte Python  anything<br />
Man in the Iron Mask<br />
The Necklace (hilary swank movie)<br />
One of your favorite movies of all time<br />
<br />
And of course, I would love to see what  you come up with for what you think I  would enjoy. That's even more fun to  open.<br />
Psst--(Most of the movies reside over  on the 7-10 dollar rack at wallmart.)  If not, borders and starbucks gift  cards and cash  are always just as  wonderful. Really, I just would like to  see you having fun at the party! Hope  this helps, if any. ]]></description>

<b>Yes!</b> You will see the Musical art work  and Yes! they will have a copywrite on  them simply becuase I don't want real  life friends in the musical printing  them out and using them when I'm making  them from scratch. Sorry. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Okay, here it is.... A CALANDER. Okay,  so it sounds stupid right now, but it's  gonna get good. (?_?)<br />
I'm not letting out the details of  mine, but what if we, as in anyone whom  sees this post, make a deviantart  calander with favorite pieces of ours? <br />
<br />
We could do a vote "battle" for the  months and then at the end we could  print it off for 2005. Just a  suggestion...Feel free to tell me what  you think.<br />
____________<br />
REAL LIFE UPDATE:<br />
<br />
Yeah, nothing. Homework, junk, play,  homework. I've found that talking about  it only brings me into a more 'let's  not go back to school' place which just  can't happen. <br />
<br />
I hope homecoming was good, I spent the  night practicing songs and dances,  which on the whole wasn't too bad.  Oh!  And I started Miss Moo's b-day present. <b> I'm not telling!</b>...yet.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Well, since I see that my first 1000  pageviews are comming, I've decided  whom ever gets it will get a little  prize.<br />
<br />
If I know you in real life: cd(you know  my collection), copy o' photoshop/psp,  manip id, or anything you can think of  relating to deviant stuff. (Asking for  a paid account won't work, I don't even  have one <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/winkrazz.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";p" title="Wink/Razz" /> ) <br />
<br />
Lovely deviantart: a manip id, or image  you would like to the best of my  ability, a layout even for your [dot]  site will work.<br />
<br />
This may be extremely stupid of me, but  heck, 1000 pageviews is a milestone,  right? Just comment or note me, so I  can give you your "prize". ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Say goodbye to my sanity,<br />
I think I left it back on the road.<br />
I've said goodbye to my heart,<br />
I think I left it with you.<br />
The shadows fall up.<br />
My skin only hold me here.<br />
A million pieces break free.<br />

<br />
11 days since a journal. It's gotta be  a record.<br />
<br />
Today was study day. Last night was  city play practice, tomorrow is school  play practice, tonight is reading and  typing. My weekend's full. <br />
<br />
Starbucks was fun today. I think I  actually might have learned something.  It was one of those nice times where  you're doing homework, but it seems to  be on the back burner. We always seem  to get more done. <br />
<br />
I feel like I'm running in so many  different ways and they're all the  wrong way, or not the way I think is  right. I really don't know. I guess I'm  just blabbing, take no note of the  light heart romp in my brain here. ]]></description>

<br />
<a href="http://elfinartist.deviantart.com">Heather</a> and I went to see Vanity Fair  today. I guess it's where the quote  materialized from. Rather good, the  movie was, though I doubt I felt enough  for the characters.  I simply was born  in the wrong era. <br />
<br />
On the art frount... Some soon, I  really hope. If only homework wouldn't  get in the way. ]]></description>

And that  extremely stupid english paragraph  poored out of me last night. I was  almost asleep and it started to come. I  got up and the only thing I could do  was take a dry erase marker to my  closet mirrors. I worte almost all of  it. I've been finding help and  understanding in such small places it  could only come from one place. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I think I need a change. Maybe I am  changing and I don't know what to think  about it. There's so much lost in my  mind, so many things I think only I  understand about me, and even that's so  small. I'm confused, scared of this  change I don't really understand.<br />
<br />
This is a pretty depressing post, but I  wonder if something's wrong. Everything  feels jumbled, unclear, and lost in  translation. I'm at a point were I  change more then the things around me.  Thank goodness "dead like me is on". I  really enjoy this show, it always makes  me feel up. Twisted? ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ School tomorrow. <br />
<br />
Since it's the last day of vacation I  thought I do this little thing:<br />
<b><u>5</u> Songs from Summer-</b><br />
This Love --Maroon 5<br />
Simple and Clean --KH theme<br />
Remember --Josh Groban<br />
Belville Rendezvous --???<br />
Better then this --Prince and Me ST<br />
<b><u>4</u> Annoying things from Summer-</b><br />
Commercials<br />
Splinters<br />
Airports<br />
<b><u>3</u> Things you smiled about-</b><br />
Complements<br />
Family<br />
Ocean Swimming<br />
<b><u>2</u> Things to look forward to-</b><br />
Christmas<br />
College<br />
<b><u>1</u> moment you wouldn't talk back-</b><br />
Seeing my Dad and Mom be more happy  then they have on a vacation in a long  time.<br />
<br />
I was reading some people's xanga's  today and realized how completely  different some people see the world.  They have no concept of the friendships  and creativity all around them, places  like deviantART for example. There's so  many different people here and everyone  enjoys that about devaintART.  They're  caught up in these stupid fights and  who will be overwieght on weigh day for  cheerleading. More material thoughts  then real thoughts. I've lost most hope  for these people. I feel almost at home  here.<br />
<br />
[edit]<br />
Those stupid people at school told me  to come back in a week to fix my  classes! Asses! Now I have to wait and  I hate waiting for things to resolve. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Every time I think my life is on this  wonderfullly simple road, something,  small even, rips open the satin sheet  over everything and sucks me into the  darkness.  Almost everyone is off for  these last few weeks till school begins  and two of the most strong fixtures of  my life are going to stay off and away.   I was looking forward, almost, to  school begining and then I remembered  how nothing ever meets my expecations  and I always end up angery, sick, and  down after the first month. Last year  was a exception and it was made up for  in the last month. That month was  horror.<br />
<br />
This year, I refuse to take lip from  people who don't respect me and that  includes people I consider closer  friends from school. I choose to keep  optimistic and enjoyable. I promise to  never procastinate, espically in  Roehl's class, and really work this  year.<br />
<br />
Oh and to all the dears at dA from real  life : if I know you from school, we  must do lunch off campus in my car this  year. That's the inviation- take it.<br />
---<br />
Lighter news...s-d.net is getting a  completely new and amazing facelift.  Basically, I'm taking it in a totally  new direction and hoping that this one  will really endure. When school starts  again, I want to make sure s-d.net  (thought it always will be) is not a  huge distraction from the important  classes I'll be taking. So, I've made  this beautiful layout and it's going to  STICK. It really better. I'll be angery  if not. ]]></description>

Yeah, there's  the statement of lifetimes. Oh! And  never forget the hour my friend Jason  and I spent laughing at the new  Exorsist movie and one of the guys that  looks like him. Boy so eventful. and as  you can see I'm blabbing for about the  hundredth time today. So I'll release  you from the angony that is my mind on  weekends and set you free. ]]></description>

The only  problem was that everything is being  remodeled, so you really don't see much  of the monuments, but it was all okay. <br />
<br />
All the bags were lost between the  baltimore plane and the dallas plane,  stupid airport, so hopefully all my  things will be here today if they  didn't end up in Santiago, Chille. I'm  starting to look over all the trip  pictures, all 200 of them, and  hopefully get back to work on my poor  little devpage here soon. School starts  in 2 weeks. God, I don't think I'm  ready. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Bro and I beat Kingdom Hearts  yesterday. Now I'm on a one-way journey  to the next one and I spent 3 hours  screen capping the end off my computer.  So, as you can see, I've done nothing  for that past week...and I feel bad  about it. <br />
<br />
Ah, I must turn creative...I must make  something new...anything.   Hum...*lightbulb* ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Happy father's day, to any fathers  around here! Thanks to my brilliant  idea, my Dad is setting with my brother  watch 30 hours of Band of Brothers 0.o.  They're having fun. Now I'm off to make  the best marshmellow frosting in the  world! It might be for Dad, but it  feels like it's for me. ]]></description>

<br />
So, dear ol' mom helped me take some  picture for a new manipulation last  night (avec curly hair). I was really  suprised becuase I didn't even know she  could use the camera! 0.o Yeha, that's  about it. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Mom and Dad are out. Brother's playing  PS2 and I'm setting here at my dear  computer here and watching the Mummyon  my tv. I needed this kind of laugh  today.  There's a blue bird trying to  kill my peach tree. I never liked that  bird. Berndan Fraser is so great in  these movies. I love laughing. I makes  me feel good. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Is it just me or do I a lot of people  who have this morbid fasination with  death around here? Or am I wrong? Eh, I  guess it's just on my thing. I'm tried  and bored, and shouldn't be on the  computer, but eh again, I don't really  care. Tomorrow's Monday thank God for  no apperent reason, but the fact that  it's another week. I hate school, inyet  I miss it. It's the same thing with  xanga: I hate it, yet I read it.I  checked out evian.com today.  Intresting... <br />
<br />
Another intresting is I've found out  the difference! Well, the difference  some friends have been at me about -  guys. Well, there's those Billy Crudups  and Josh Grobans of the world who I  think I'd melt if they touched me. And  then there's those Orlando Blooms and  David Windems who are just sexy and  funny and, and...Then there's those guy  friends who are awesome friends and you  wonder, but you don't really care or  want to take the time to understand  what it is that makes them hot to other  girls. Those are my Jasons and Ians of  the world people. So scary little  dancer girls of Dance Arts stay away  now. <br />
<br />
I doubt that help anyone but me. I  don't care. I find I'm becoming more  closed to people. Becuase many just  annoy me. So I stay away. <br />
<br />
Wow! How random and stupid can one  person be? Hehe, a whole journal entry  full. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well, those darn cousins and friends of  mine threw me in the car, locked it,  and told me we had to come home from  Malibu. Is there ever just that one  place were you've never stopped smiling  and don't think you ever will. Then,  even when you think about that place,  you still get this really stupid grin  and get that darn blank stare in your  eyes and everyone knows what you're  thinking? Yeha, that's most likely me  at the moment. <br />
<br />
Wonder cousin with not-so-wonder cousin  and wonder friend with  lost-in-middle-earth friend went to  where else but Malibu to honestly, do  nothing. We stayed at...a palace 0.o  and if it isn't I don't care. (Very  long story, but cousin stays there with  a friend and the friends grandmother.  Has to be a rich thing.) They put me in  the tower and I really had fun playing  sleeping beauty. Friday night we went  and saw Rooney, now I need the cd, and  then Sunday they took me to the center  of natural and cultural history for  archeology and anthropology. THAT WAS  AMAZING. My life began there. No,  really it was the coolest thing in the  world. I was one of the first people to  look at these new artifacts they'd  brought in the day before from france  becuase we went on the 'vip tour' for  future archeologists. Go me. <br />
<br />
And then there's the rock. The lovely,  lovely rock which I will never forget.  I miss you rock! (and who was with me  when we talked on it.) So, there's my  week other then the beach and I'm back  deivant! <br />
<br />
... i just wanted to know I was still  alive. Mostly <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":p" title=":p (Lick)" /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Ah, I think I'm loosing my closest  friends to far away adventures.  School's almost over and two are going  to Europe, one lives there, and the  other-the closest one I have- is  leaving to New York and ABA. Two weeks  left. He's going to have the time of  his life and I so happy, but still I'm  sad. He would have left anyway in a  year for college. It's just sooner and  not later I guess. I really just don't  want to think about it. At least I  won't be lonely right when school ends,  it will take a few weeks. ha.<br />
<br />
Gosh I didn't want to be a downer. I  went shopping today for goodness sake  and I got two killer outfits. Why am  I'm going to be a downer? I'm not. As  you can see, I made three new  deviations today which took me all day  minus feeding dogs and shopping. (Not  like I had anything else to do.) And  well, nothing else at the moment. I  really had fun making them. All their  colors and thinking about them. It was  nice. ]]></description>

Oh well! It's really no big deal. I  hoping to upload some new things soon  so, till then... ]]></description>
