                <description><![CDATA[ <b>**Just as a reminder, your homemade crafts should be sent out by tommorrow!**</b><br /><br />Anyway, several things have happened since I last updated my journal.  First off, I finished and completed NaNoWriMo with my 50,000 words. Granted, my novel isn't yet finished, but I play on spending some realy time with it over Christmas break and am acutally looking forward to it! My friend *<a class="u" href="http://dyingsoul2008.deviantart.com/">dyingsoul2008</a> also informed me that if you are a NaNoWriMo winnter, than you can submit your story and get a free paperback copy of your novel. How amazing is that? I have to work really hard to make my novel perfect, which it is nowhere even near at the moment. I can't even imagine yet what it will be like to see it in print! <br /><br />Also, right after NaNo ended, my computer got attacked by a very nasty virus so my updates have been very scarse (or nil as I think the case may be). I hope to have my completely fixed when I go home from break and can get the help of those who know much more about computers than I.  It will be a huge relief to have my baby up and running again!<br /><br />Another thing that happened was that I turned 20 a week ago today.  I've finally completed the second decade of my life, but I don't really feel any differently. Changes that have happened in my life have seen so gradual (even when they were not) that I barely notice them. Soon it will be Christmas and New Years and the semester will be starting all over again.<br /><br />I really can't wait until break. I need to get out there and take photographs again, but have so much going on this week that I probably won't be able until I am home on Saturday. Exams are upon us and my professors gave me three take home exams, only one of which is done, and four in-class exams I must study for.  I have more than just a feeling that studying for my history exam is going to kill me this week. But it will be absolutly worth it to have three plus weeks off.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ **If you would like to participate in the gift exchange, then please let me know by no later than Monday at midnight! I would like to have everyone paired up by Tuesday before I go home for Thanksgiving break because I probably won't have access to the internet for five days or so!**<br /><br />So, this year I was thinking it would be really wonderful for people on dA to exchange homemade holiday gifts for each other.  I know that it is a bit late in the season to organize a mass gift-swapping event, but I think that it would be truly wonderful to have a small one.<br /><br />I would really, really appreciate it people would agree to participate in this.  Also, it would be a wonderful way to help support art and show appreciation to our fellow dA-ers.<br /><br />This isn't necessarily about Christmas and other seasonal holidays.  I realize that there are many people who do not observe religious holidays, but think that it would still be wonderful for everyone to participate!<br /><br />If you would like to participate in the gift exchange, I would really appreciate it if you put this in your journal so others can participate in the gift exchange too! The more the merrier!  If you would like to participate in the gift exchange, please comment! Also, if you have an questions, concerns, ideas, please feel free to comment as well.  <br /><br />Okay, so here are the rules:<br />1.  Gifts are to be homemade works of art (such as jewelry, paintings, a set of photographs, a collage, anything!) and something with some thought behind it. I would rather not have people go out and spend a bunch of money on this!<br /><br />2.  Everyone who agrees to participate in this must fulfill their promise to send a gift.  It wouldn't be fair to get one from someone and not make a gift for another.<br /><br />3.  At my request, please no nudity, violent imagery, vulgarity. I realize that everyone has their own definition of these words, but I would rather no one get offended because this is supposed to be fun for everyone!<br /><br />4.  Work that is created for the gift exchange is allowed to be posted in the deviant's gallery with the mention that it was part of the gift exchange, and who in which it is for.  <br /><br />5.  Who you will make a gift for and who will give you a gift will be completely at random. I plan to do this the good old fashioned way be putting everyone's name into a hat! Also, it would probably be wonderful to get to know your gift exchange partner beforehand to figure out what they like, don't like, etc. I am not asking anyone to give out any more personal information than what is absolutely necessary.  Once you have your partner, please exchange information. Remember, you will have someone in which you are making a gift for, and a someone else who is making a gift for you. <br /><br />6.  Please have all gifts mailed out to your partner no later than December 14, 2009 so everyone can get their gift by no later than the end of the year.  <br /><br />7.  If you haven't received your gift by January 8, please let me know!<br /><br />8.  For the person you will be making the gift for, ask them 5 to 10 questions and make something from the information you gather.<br /><br />Cheers!<br />webofdreams89<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So today is the first day since NaNoWriMo started that I have not only been caught up, but have surpassed my need of 1,667 words for the day! I am really excited and proud of myself at the moment. It is also the first time that I've truly felt that this goal, 50,000 words, a novel in a month, is tangible.  I really think I can do this, and am even looking forward to editing my story when I am done writing it because, even in these early drafting stages, I am proud of it!<br /><br />Good luck to all of those who are participating in NaNoWriMo! And to those who are not, it isn't too late to join!<br /><br />Total word count: 11, 426<br /><br /> ]]></description>

If you don't know what NaNoWriMo is, you can read up all about it <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.nanowrimo.org/eng/whatisnano">[here]</a>.  You have to write 50,000 words in 1 month, from November 1st to the 30th.  Truthfully, I am kind of scared at the result.  I know that I have very limited time as it is, but I really want to start getting some major work done with writing. Also, whoever happens to be reading this, you should sign up too!

                <description><![CDATA[ Honestly, the title of the journal explains it all. I am outraged. Yesterday, when I was browsing dA I found a deviation that I liked and clicked on. After also clicking on the author's page, I saw that they had a stamp on their page that I was horribly offended by. I was considering linking it on my journal for everyone to see, but I would rather not because I think that it would be giving the artist too much credit. Anyway, the stamp said something like: "It isn't rape if you yell surprise!" or something along those lines. And then the author justified posting it by saying that it is on t-shirts therefore it is okay and that it is simple entertainment and 'funny.' <br /><br />As someone who as lived through rape, I couldn't think of a single thing that I found funny about it. I was so offended that I wanted to rant on their deviation, but after reading the deviant's responses to others who share my opinion and did comment, I realized the deviant was getting off on the negative reaction to the stamp and didn't want to give her the satisfaction of knowing she/he had gotten to another person.  It was really hard reading some of the positive comments he/she was getting for creating such a 'funny' stamp. Is it really all that much to ask to think of other human beings for once? Is it really all that much to ask to extend genuine common courtesy?<br /><br />It just really galls me than anyone under any circumstances could or would ever say that rape is okay under any circumstances or for any reason. She actually equated the act itself as to being the same thing as being upset about someone poking her in the arm and said that rape is only bad because society tells us that it is. Clearly, this person is very ignorant and will never truly what it feels like. <br /><br />I think that it is just horrible that anyone would promote such a degrading and horrific act that takes so much from the victim. I just can't believe people sometimes.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.rainn.org/">[link]</a><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I know that this is something that has been debated since, frankly, the beginning of fucking time, essentially. It is a theme that shows up everywhere: literature, film, television, videogames, sports, church. It is something we encounter every single day and I am sure it isn't too presumptuous of me to say that it is something we have all thought about from time to time no matter what side we think ourselves to align with.<br /><br />More or less, my general question is, to you, what makes a person good and what makes a person evil? Do your actions literally speak louder than you words?  Can a person who merely thinks evil thoughts but never actually acts upon them be considered evil, or do they fall somewhere in the vast expanse of gray that lies between the two?  Can a person who has done bad things with good intentions be considered a good person? Or could they be considered a good person by society's standards if they take a life for another? Or could someone who isn't sound of mine be considered evil if they do something wrong? And how does revenge and justice factor in?  <br /><br />I don't know, I am just curious to see what other people think. Also, what are your favorite good vs. evil themed movies, books, stores, etc.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

My classes are interesting and work is work. But that is the way things go.<br /><br />Saw Inglorious Basterds on Sunday. Highly recommended. I'm a huge Tarantino fan. <br /><br />Maybe sometime this weekend between work shifts and homework, I have the time to take my camera out. It feels as if it has been a long time since I've taken any pictures. In reality, it's only been a few days, but so much has happened in a short amout of time.<br /><br />I've been a bit bummed because I recently found out that my ulcer has gotten worse after a trip to the hospital.  But worse yet, two of my cats have died within about a week of each other.<br /><br />Need the weekend..<br /><br />Stock account:<br /><a href="http://web-stocks.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/w/e/web-stocks.jpg?1" alt=":iconweb-stocks:" title="web-stocks"/></a><br /><br /></sub> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ <sub>Have you ever experienced in your life where one moment you feel like the same old person, and the next you feel as if you are some completely new? I know these changes can be caused by different experiences and big events and tragedies that happen in life as well, but I am refering to an otherwise ordinary moment that changes your life, seemingly forever? <br /><br />If you have no idea what I'm talking about, disregard this journal! I'm just rambling here, much as I always do.<br /><br />A few days ago, I had one of these experiences. It was odd because I was just sitting in my lawn with my brother and my uncle. I remember glancing at the newspaper and on the front page there was a horrible murder. I don't remember the details because I skimmed through the article, but after I set paper down, I just decided to let everything go. All the built up anger and anxiety and the leftovers of teenage angst. I figured that I won't be a teenager much longer anyway, so what is sooner rather than later? I decided in that instant that I didn't want to hold grudges against those I thought to do me wrong. I decided to focus on the most important things in life: my friends and family, getting an education, becoming a person that I can both respect and be proud of. <br /><br />So there it is, the end of my rant. In all my ramblings, what I just wanted to say is that I feel different from yesterday and it ain't so bad!<br /><br />Stock account:<br /><a href="http://web-stocks.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/w/e/web-stocks.jpg?1" alt=":iconweb-stocks:" title="web-stocks"/></a><br /><br /></sub> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I haven't been taking photographs quite as religiously as I was before, but have been instead focusing on more traditional art (pencil, pen, marker) as of late. I don't have a scanner at the moment, but hopefully I will be able to take photos of my art and it won't look too horrible when I post it here on dA! Other than that, not too much of note to report, except on Monday, a huge weight was lifted off of my shoulders.

                <description><![CDATA[ Because there have been some really great people here on dA that have helped me get some of my art out there for others to see, I have decided to start featuring people and their art on my page as just a small way to contribute back to the community. So, you can find the first features on my page <a href="http://webofdreams89.deviantart.com/">[here]</a>. I won't have weekly access to the internet like I would like, so feature updates may be a little slow going, but I will try my hardest to get more people featured. I you have anyone you watch deserving of a feature, let me know. Or, you have any of your own work you think should be featured, just leave me a comment! Thank you everyone who watches and/or supports me here on dA!<br /><br />-kelley<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So it is now summer vacation! I decided to move in with my dad. We don't (yet) have internet there, so my new deviations might be sort of sporatic and when I do update, there may be a lot of them! I appologize for this. Right now, <a href="http://dyingsoul2008.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/d/y/dyingsoul2008.jpg" alt=":icondyingsoul2008:" title="dyingsoul2008"/></a> is kind enough to let me use her internet for my recent updates and this journal entry too.<br /><br />I haven't done too much since summer started more than a week ago already. I was sick earlier this week, but I'd rather not get into that. I was unpleasant. Supernatural is officially done until August/September sometime. This is also unpleasant. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":-(" title=":-( (Sad)" /><br /><br />On a lighter note: <br /><br /><b><i>Countdown to California: 2 months, 5 days until we leave...</i></b><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ At the moment, I feel as if I have a million and two things I need to do, but there is really only a few things I actually feel like doing.  I feel like leaving campus because it is really starting to drive me insane, but I don't feel like going home. I feel like just packing a bag and my camera and just getting the fuck out for a while. I'm restless, completely and utterly stircrazy. I get like this sometimes and I'm not entirely sure where it comes from except for the fact that a lot of the people in my family just up and travel out of the blue.

                <description><![CDATA[ It seems that I've been on somewhat of a posting spree lately! I suppose that is okay though (hopefully no one minds too much, lol). Art had been a pleasant escape from thinking about all the problems in my lovelife at the moment. But no one wants to hear [i.e. read] about that!<br /><br />On a much, much happier note, there are officially only 8 days left of class, along with a week of finals. I find it so difficult to believe that my first year of college is over already! This year has, quite literally, flown right by. The days themselves seem long, but the weeks fly by quickly if that makes any sense whatsoever.<br /><br />I am very much looking forward to a summer because there will be no more class work to do, but I don't really feel like having to face all the drama at home again. I am still looking for a job for when I do get home, however, and will probably do another application after I post this journal [keep your fingers crossed].<br /><br /><b><i>Count down to Comicon: 2 months, 27 days.</i></b><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ ...or burned, in my case. Yes, I got my first burn of the year already, which means I'm making pretty damn good time since it is only the first week of April as of yet.<br /><br />I got to try out my new camera today as I was exploring town with <a href="http://dyingsoul2008.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/d/y/dyingsoul2008.jpg" alt=":icondyingsoul2008:" title="dyingsoul2008"/></a> and must admit that I am in. Love. With. It! It takes great photos and...I'll just stop now and spare you my fangasming. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=D" title="=D (Big Grin)" /><br /><br />Anywho, I still have a Film paper to (attempt) to do this weekend. Possibly at any rate. Also, Easter is quickly approaching, which means I shall get to go home soon and see my family.<br /><br />Only 3 months, 22 days until Comic-con!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Go to Urbandictionary.com, type in your answer and copy/paste the first thing that comes up. Then tag 10 friends and share with them the fascination you got from doing this memo.<br /><br />1) Your name?<br />Kelley--<br />1. The truly Irish surname, generally refers to the nature loving irish who are not only good looking but extremely witty.<br />2. The most amazing woman on earth. model like blonde with blue eyes. <br />3.  The definition of sexy, hott, gorgeous, the list goes on. Is one of the best and most amazing people you will ever meet and know. Can get downn on the dance floor, or just about anywhere else. And is far from a nerd or loser.<br /><br /><br />2) Your age?<br />19.<br /><br />1. To "be 19", or to have "gone 19" essentially means that something has gone wrong, is just plain weird, or is inexplicable. Derived from Stephen King's 'Dark Tower' series. Its true meaning, if anything more than a motif, has yet to be revealed. <br />2. The Canadian drinking age. 2 years better than 21.<br />3. The last year of ya "TEENS" <br /><br /><br />3) One of your friends?<br />Jake.<br /><br />1. The police.<br />2. An amazing guy that is really funny and really adorable that you cant help but love .<br />3. A extremely long penis of at least fourteen inches.  (lol) <br /><br /><br />4) What should you be doing?<br />Reading--The act of defiling one's eyes to malicous, or mind-boggoling content.  <br /> <br /><br />5) Favorite color?<br />Purple--Extremely potent marijuana, specifically marijuana buds that have a purple hue to them. Also accompanied by a fragant, usually fruity smell and mad perma-grin.<br /> <br /><br />6) Birth place?<br />Ohio<br />1) One of the states of the United States of America. <br />Home to a bunch of formerly bad but now improving pro sports teams, a ton of colleges, the OSU Buckeyes, actual buckeyes, part of the Rust Belt, Cedar Point and a lot of soybeans, cows, and corn. <br />Ohio contains a little bit of all the typical Midwestern environments- college towns, suburbs, cities, urban areas trying to reinvent themseles, farmlands, etc. It also contains part of Appalachia, and a large number of "swing voters". It has quite a few ardent liberals and conservatives, and has been the home and/or birthplace of eight presidents. The weather, it being part of the Midwest region, is often "crazy" and swings between hot, mild, cold, and freezing. The four seasons are widely known to be "winter, still winter, almost winter, and construction" or something to that effect (believed to be taken from a Jeff Foxworthy chain email). <br />There's definitely a lot more there than bad drivers, "hicks", and cows, and just driving through the state does not really do it justice. You've got to experience it to really understand it, and then you can pass judgement. <br />2) A song written by Neil Young (while he was working with Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young) in response to the Kent State Massacre, which occured at Kent State University in Ohio on May 4, 1970 when National Guardsmen opened fire on student protesters on the KSU campus.<br /><br /><br />7) Month of your birthday?<br />December<br />1. The month in which the hottest women are born. <br />2. The best month out of the entire year. That's why they left it last.<br /><br /><br />8) Last person you talked to?<br />Ambre--French spelling of the arabic word for jewel. Girls named Ambre tend to have to correct both spelling and pronunciation of her name to those who do not live in Canada<br /><br /><br /><br />9) What did you last drink?<br />Vault--Vault is the new "hybrid" citrus beverage from The Coca-Cola Company. It's called a "hybrid" because it combines the easy drinkability of a soda with the "kick" of an energy drink. <br /><br /> <br /><br />10) Your favorite sport?<br />Baseball<br /><br />1. The greatest sport ever. PERIOD. Misunderstood by jackasses who have never seen or been to a game. <br />2. A game only intelligent people understand.<br /><br />And I tag:<br /><a href="http://dyingsoul2008.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/d/y/dyingsoul2008.jpg" alt=":icondyingsoul2008:" title="dyingsoul2008"/></a> <a href="http://crazyartist121.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/c/r/crazyartist121.jpg" alt=":iconcrazyartist121:" title="crazyartist121"/></a>  <a href="http://daemonswitch09.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/d/a/daemonswitch09.jpg?1" alt=":icondaemonswitch09:" title="daemonswitch09"/></a>  <a href="http://mrssesshy.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/m/r/mrssesshy.gif?1" alt=":iconmrssesshy:" title="mrssesshy"/></a> <a href="http://thecatatnight.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/t/h/thecatatnight.gif" alt=":iconthecatatnight:" title="thecatatnight"/></a><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Okay, so truthfully, I just wanted a new journal entry because the survey was so long on my page. Lame, I know. But I did finally get around to updating somethings here on dA. I would have posted more, but apparently two of the files were way to big, so I have to fiddle with them later without altering the appearance of the picture.<br /><br />What today is a happy day because it is that time of the week again. And what time may that be? Supernatural day of course!! <br /><br />The CW @ 9:00.

                <description><![CDATA[ Soooooooooooooooooooo.....<br /><br />It is finally spring break! Hells yeah! <br /><br />On a more somber note, yesterday I attended my great grandpa's funeral. It was a very sad affair and I found myself crying once before I had even sat down in the pew for the service. I'm not very good at hiding my sorrow at funerals and actually tend to blubber the entire time. This is the third funeral of someone I've been close with since my first year of college has started and it's really starting to get to me. But I try to turn my mind to other things.<br /><br /><a href="http://dyingsoul2008.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/d/y/dyingsoul2008.jpg" alt=":icondyingsoul2008:" title="dyingsoul2008"/></a> and I recently made all of our reservations for this years Comic-con in July. We shall be taking a bus across country and arriving in California the night before it starts. It was much cheaper that I had originally thought it was going to be actually. I just have to save my money to buy lots of merch now! That, and the camera I have been wanting forever.<br /><br />As far as updates go, I'll get to it (heh, eventually). I found this little watercolor thing I did a long time ago in my drawer that I need to scan and post. Also, I bought some more scratch art things that I plan on doing over break. I also plan on finishing some of my writing some time soon as well. Maybe.<br /><br />On a happier note, tomorrow <a href="http://dyingsoul2008.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/d/y/dyingsoul2008.jpg" alt=":icondyingsoul2008:" title="dyingsoul2008"/></a> and I will be going to see The Curious Case of Benjimin Button and eating green peppers! Yay! Also, she shall be happy to know that Clerks, Clerks 2, and Monty Python and the Holy Grail all beat me home, so we can commence with the watching! And Planet Terror and Death Proof if she wants! I'm excited!<br /><br />I also got to see my puppy yesterday. He's gotten so big since the last time I saw him and I love that little guy. I thoroughly spoiled him with the treats I bought him at Petco, but oh well. Maybe if he sits still long enough, I'll be able to take some pictures of him and post them here.<br /><br />Ta ta for now. Kello out.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Soooooo....<br /><br />I've been busy lately. And haven't done anything remotely artistic in ages. I honestly don't know if I can at the moment. I want to, but everything turns out as complete rubbish. This week is a busy one; Film paper due tomorrow, English paper due Thursday, Spanish project due Friday. Not to mention the tons upon tons of pages I must still read by who rightly knows when.<br /><br />And best of all, I work this weekend. And also the day leading up to the weekend and the subsequential days following the weekend. I suppose I can't complain too much, though, because I must save my money. Not only do I have a camera to buy so I can complete my portfolio for next school year, but <a href="http://dyingsoul2008.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/d/y/dyingsoul2008.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":icondyingsoul2008:" title="dyingsoul2008"/></a> and I also decided to go to Comic-con this year and we will be needing cash for the bus trip, lodging, and whatever else.  But it is something I am greatly looking forward to!<br /><br />On a different note, my family seems to have fallen off the face of the earth. I haven't gotten in contact with either my mom or my brother in such a long time. My brother called me briefly on Saturday to inform me that we no longer seem to have a place to live and then had to hang up so my mom could use the phone. And well, I'm just worried about them and everything and *sigh*<br /><br />I did, however, manage to get the stories for <a href="http://mrssesshy.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/m/r/mrssesshy.gif?1" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconmrssesshy:" title="mrssesshy"/></a> and <a href="http://crazyartist121.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/c/r/crazyartist121.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconcrazyartist121:" title="crazyartist121"/></a> written and posted, although they aren't all that great in my opinion. <br /><br /><b>Updates (or lack thereof)</b><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblack.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblack:" title="Bullet; Black" /> Title: <a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4842528/1/Base_and_King">Base and King</a> <br />Fandom: KH<br />Pairing: Zemyx<br />Rating: Teen.<br />Summary: Maybe there's hope for you yet, Zexion. We'll just have to see.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblack.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblack:" title="Bullet; Black" /> Title: <a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4842533/1/Coffeehouse_Blues">Coffeehouse Blues</a> <br />Fandom: KH<br />Pairing: Akuroku<br />Rating: Teen.<br />Summary: The first time Roxas saw Axel, well, you could say that it hadnÂt ended all that well.<br /><br />(Bonus points of some form or another for the person who correctly guesses what song my journal title is from.  Sorry, Am, you're excluded on account of knowing too much!)<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ The main reason behind this journal? My last was too long and I didn't like how it looked on my page. Lame, but true. It hit a nerve on my OCD-ometer and was driving my brain insane with the noises it was omiting. Sad sad, but so very true.<br /><br />So what has been going on in my life recently, you ask? I suppose I can fill you in. I'm back at school, back at work and am finding little to no time to do anything (except write pointless dA journals so my mental disorder can R.I.P.). In fact, I have to work pretty soon, after Geology. <br /><br />Overall, my classes are not that bad this semester and are all at least tolerable, (although I don't like my Geology lab all that much).  And work is, well....work.  No description needed on that one, really.<br /><br />I injured my knee on a rather cruel patch of ice and have been having problems. I bought a Wii and Guitar Hero: World Tour. Fun, fun!!  And I have been contemplating buying a camera. I've been thinking of going with a Canon Rebel xti or xts, I'm not sure which yet.<br /><br />Also, I have to write two stories for <a href="http://crazyartist121.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/c/r/crazyartist121.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconcrazyartist121:" title="crazyartist121"/></a> and <a href="http://mrssesshy.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/default.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconmrssesshy:" title="mrssesshy"/></a> as a result of a briiiiiibe! I haven't yet decided on what to do about that just yet, but I will in due time I'm sure.<br /><br />Ta-ta for now!!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

I met and got the autograph of Alice Cooper when I was in first grade.  He told me that I was a cute little bugger.  It was epic.<br /><br />5. When I was little, I used to pack up a few bags and drag lawn furniture to this little secluded area of my dad's lawn and pretend that I had run away from home and had to live on my own. Oh, and sometimes I made my little brother play it with me too. He was always my pet puppy.<br /><br />6. I'm partially colorblind and cannot see the colors red or green.<br /><br />7. I lllllllllllllloooooooooooooooooovvvvvvvveeeeee<br />the Cleveland Indians!  Go Tribe!!!@!!!!!!!<br /><br />8.

                <description><![CDATA[ Things haven't improved on the family front all that much lately, but I do have some good news!! We got a puppy!! And he is absolutely adorable. Honestly, what do I need a boyfriend for when I have Puppy? <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":-)" title=":-) (Smile)" /><br /><br />Actually, he was stray that my dad and brother found in a corn field (freezing and starving) and we adopted him. I'm taking my camera to my dad's tomorrow, so I'll be sure to get some pictures of the little guy.<br /><br />On another note, I /have/ been working on chapter 16 of RBS, but it is slow going. I plan to either finish it tonight or tomorrow, edit it and get the rest of it written. Assent is also slow going. But I have been working on a new story tentatively titled 'Instructions in Life' and am roughly half way through chapter two.  It will probably be around four chapters long, but the chapters will be semi long ones. Ch. 1 is currently (unedited) 8000+ words. I was going to make it a oneshot, but it was getting quite lengthy. Hopefully I'll have the first chapter of that posted relatively soon, but I may choose to write the entire thing before that happens. I haven't decided yet.<br /><br />*sigh*<br /><br /> ]]></description>

Finals are over, and now it's winter break, Christmas right around the corner. It seems unfathomable to me how quickly things are going.<br /><br />Well, I'm actually quite proud of myself because I have actually been getting things done lately. I finally got <a href="http://crazyartist121.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/c/r/crazyartist121.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconcrazyartist121:" title="crazyartist121"/></a>'s Stein picture done. I finished an L picture that I started sketching forever ago (even if it came out a bit on the odd side). I have at least three drawing that I need to finish, including a picture of Black Star and Soul, a collage, and an original drawing.<br /><br />And even more amazing, I've began editing Razorblade Shine again! Yesterday I actually sat down and edited chapter 6 and 7, which are now posted. I don't plan on writing any more of the story until I finish editing through at least 13 or 14, so I better get my butt in gear. I also wrote a few more short stories since I last updated my journal.<br /><br /><b>dA Updates:</b><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblack.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblack:" title="Bullet; Black" /> <a href="http://webofdreams89.deviantart.com/art/Stein-107093328">Stein</a> for <a href="http://crazyartist121.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/c/r/crazyartist121.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconcrazyartist121:" title="crazyartist121"/></a><br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblack.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblack:" title="Bullet; Black" /> <a href="http://webofdreams89.deviantart.com/art/L-107092912">L</a><br /><br /><b>FF.Net Updates:</b><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblack.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblack:" title="Bullet; Black" /> Revised chapters 6 and 7 of <a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3741251/1/Razorblade_Shine">Razorblade Shine</a>.<br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblack.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblack:" title="Bullet; Black" /> Chapter 3 of <a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4121805/1/Assent">Assent</a><br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblack.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblack:" title="Bullet; Black" /> <a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4643214/1/Vacillation">Vacillation</a><br />Fandom: Death Note<br />Rating: M<br />Pairings: Matt/Mello<br />Summary: For the moment, there was no indecision.

                <description><![CDATA[ Well, I figured that I should update my journal because I noticed that it has been more than a month (jeez, that long already?). <br /><br />I just got back to school a few hours ago from break, which was okay over all. I mean, my dad only got pulled over by the cops twice, got into an argument with him once, contracted one bloody nose and hit my head four times.<br /><br />But I got to hang with my cousins and brother, all of which who I haven't seen for a while, while be sat in front of the television and watched a House, M.D. marathon on Thanksgiving day. <br /><br />Eh, I got a new coat from my grandma as part of my birthday present. It's soft inside. Which, in my world, is about all that matters. Heh.<br /><br />So I dragged my little brother to the movie theatre to see Twilight with me. Which I loved! And Ambre and I are going to see it again on Wednesday, which I don't object to at all. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":-)" title=":-) (Smile)" /> So I read online that they are making New Moon into a movie as well. I don't care how good the first movie was, though, no one could ever make Breaking Dawn into a good movie. Which is sad, because I had such high hopes for that book too. *tear*<br /><br />But anyway, Am and I are going to watch the Dark Knight in a few hours at the Student Union. Which, basically, transtlats to OH HELL YEAH! She can have her Joker fix, while I partake in my Batman one (and I don't care what anyone says, Christian Bale is HOT!!!)<br /><br />So I did some major writing over break, finishing Chapter 3 of Assent and three short stories, two of which are posted either here on dA or on FF.Net. The third I'm not posting until my birthday on Saturday, which just so happens to be Zexion/Larxene day. An odd pairing, I know, but I wrote a little ficlet to go along with it! (My half birthday is totally Zexion masturbation day and I'm thinking of doing a story for when that particular day rolls around!)<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ It's the weekend and I, thankfully, do not have to work! Can't help but be excited about that! But sadly, I do not get paid until next weekend...<br /><br />Fairly recent fanfic udates include:<br /><a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3741251/1/Razorblade_Shine">Chapter 15</a> of Razorblade Shine<br /><br />-and-<br /><br />A short story:<br />Title: <a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4608960/1/Queen_Annes_Lace">Queen Anne's Lace</a><br />Fandom: KH<br />Pairing: Zemyx<br />Rating: T<br />Summary: We lay in a field of wildflowers, but something was not right. He was not alright.<br /><br />And also some recent or fairly recent dA updates:<br />Tiny Cat (photography)<br />Tiny Cat 2 (photography)<br />Tiny Cat 3 (photography)<br />Tiny Cat 4 (photography<br />Family Portrait (photography)<br />Towering (photography)<br />Guiding Light (photography)<br />Plus, a new ID<br /><br />But anyway...I'm currently trying to finish the last two chapters and epilogue of Razorblade Shine, plus all of the editing I still must do. Really, I just want to move on and start my new story really, really badly, but I know I must finish this story first (and probably Assent too) before I should start something else. Hmmm.<br /><br />I have a few things to post here on dA as well, just as soon as I can get them scanned. Don't know when that will be, but I'll try to make it soon. Maybe later today, if I make it down to the computer lab.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Everything in my life lately seems to be heading straight to, if I may be vulgar for just a moment, shits. My grandma finally lost her battle to cancer last Monday night and things have just been really, really hard. Her services are tomorrow and Saturday and I don't really know how I'm going to make it through them without bawling my eyes out, I really don't. I also found out yesterday that my Uncle Doug is losing his battle to cancer as well, and is starting to hallucinate a lot. I'm at a complete loss as to what to do about anything. I realize that there is little to nothing I can do and that is exactly what is making me feel so hopeless all the time. It still doesn't even feel real that she is gone.<br /><br />This is the first time I've seen my family since I want away to college back in August and I feel terrible for being happy just to see everyone, especially since I know that I can home mostly just for my Grandma's funeral. All during school, I was really jealous that my friends all got to see their families at least once, while mine was too poor (or had a car that would make it) to come up and visit me. I know it's a petty feeling, but I ended up being a lot more homesick than I thought possible. It really hurt a lot too, being at school when I found out. I felt like such a nuisence to all my friends lately because I've been bitchy and snappish and depressed all of the time, even when I'm pretending to smile. I just feel like hell and seem to have lost my focus completely. I feel as if I have no one to talk to, even my family, because I don't want to burden anyone with my problems when they all have problems of their own. I don't know, they say pain heals with time, but I'm still waiting for that to happen I guess. I suppose I should just suck it up and move on like I've been doing my entire life.<br /><br />RIP Grandma<br />November 19, 1940-September 29, 2008<br /><br /> ]]></description>

Crack, pure and simple.<br /><br />Nothing too much to note. Since last update, I have fallen wholly in love with Soul Eater. It is amazing, like Nightmare Before Christmas' Halloween Town on CRACK! But in a very, very good way!<br /><br />I read an amazing fic yesterday by the.isreal.project107's new story, titled <a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4561142/1/Those_Who_Lie">Those Who Lie</a>, based on Nijuuni's <a href="http://nijuuni.deviantart.com/art/Akuroku-Those-Who-Lie-98182813">picture</a> <br />picture of the same name. Both are simply amazing and recommended to ANYONE who can appreciate a little Akuroku.<br /><br />I've been trying to find the time to get some writing done, especially for Razorblade Shine, but am finding little time to do so. I did start editing chapter 6 yesterday.  Fall break is coming up where we get a WHOLE 4 days off of school, so I plan on sitting down and just writting it. The problem is that everytime I do sit down to write RBS, or even Assent, I get sidetracked by another idea that is hounding my brain and always end up writing that instead. Or realizing that I have a ton of homework that I need to get finished. Poo.<br /><br />But <a href="http://dyingsoul2008.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/d/y/dyingsoul2008.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":icondyingsoul2008:" title="dyingsoul2008"/></a> and I are going to watch Iron Man later in the student theatre, so I get that to look forward to at least.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I really don't know what to say. I feel as if my life is falling apart around me lately. I've been keeping in touch with my mom since I went away to college, and a few days ago she told me that my grandma was back in the hospital. She fell out of her bed and crawled all the way to her chair that she sits in in the living room. My two younger cousins found her, but couldn't lift her up so Grandma had to just lay there until my aunt got home from work. Today, she went back to the doctor, and they discovered that the cancer is spreading very rapidly and that chemo isn't helping her at all.  Her short term memory is completely gone. Mom says she doesn't have much time left at all.<br /><br />I feel like all I've been doing lately is crying.  Every time Ambre leaves for class or whatever, I just freaking break down. I hate crying so much, but it just kills me seeing my grandma the way she is, helpless. It makes me feel so helpless and worthless because I can't even do anything for one of the people I love most in the world.  <br /><br />My grandma was always my role model. She was always the one woman I knew that always spoke her mind, and, frankly, didn't give a f*** what you thought about her.  I wanted to be just like her because, despite her brashness, she took care of her family and loved them.  She loved me and helped raise me, to shape me into the person I am today.  She (along with my other Grandma) was always my idea of what a strong woman was.<br /><br />And now, it's like everything I learned from her, everything she taught me, was for nothing becaue I can't even take care of her.  I feel so useless, and practically the only thing that keeps my head up is that I'm the 'oldest' of the family. I set the example for my brother and younger cousins. They have always looked to me for leadership, and I feel that its my responsiblity to hold them together even if I can't hold myself together.  I'm the role model and leader to them and only hope that I can teach them all the important things Grandma taught me.  I only hope that I can grow up to be the woman she was and still is.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I must admit, today was probably the scariest day I've had in years. I had to ride my bike across town to pick something up and on my way home, I got hit by a pick up truck. I stopped at the stop sign and decided to go since the truck had a stop sign too. But the asshole decides that he doesn't want to stop, and doesn't until he is slamming on the breaks, hitting me in the process. I seriously thought I was going to die, and probably would have if he hadn't hit the breaks. And get this, breaking the law by NOT stopping at the stop sign wasn't enough, the ass hole told me that it was all my fault and just swerved around me as I lay on the pavement, taking off. Lord, by the time I got home, tears were streaming down my face. Luckily, I didn't get hurt very badly or anything.<br /><br />I'm just in kind of a weird mood right now, just thinking about everything. You know in movies and books how they always say their whole life flashed before their eyes? Well that's exactly how it it in real life. Fiction got something right for once. All I was thinking was about home much I would be leaving behind, about how much I haven't yet accomplished, and all the people I love...<br /><br />I'm just trying not to dwell on it too much, but it's really hard not to. But moving on to happier things.<br /><br />Tomorrow is move in day at school. I haven't even had the chance to be nervous or anything yet, just packing up all my stuff. I really hate moving. I've had to move so many times in the past few years that I think I've filled my lifetime quota, but apparently not.  I always feel just a little sad every time my things have to go into boxes. I mean, I know this time it will be different because my family isn't getting evicted or whatever, but the feeling is still the same. And I'm going to miss my cats. But at least we get to have pet fish! *cough, Axel and Demyx, cough*<br /><br />Packing has been a real bitch with the sprained wrist, which doesn't want to heal. I put the cast on and it doesn't hurt so much, but it itches like crazy and is hot. Take the cast off, and I'm in constant pain. I can just never win. Unfortunately, the dorm I'm sharing with <a href="http://dyingsoul2008.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/d/y/dyingsoul2008.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":icondyingsoul2008:" title="dyingsoul2008"/></a> is up on the third floor so it's all stairs from there. But fortunately, I'm injured and will just have to have my brother carry all the heavy stuff. Besides, that's why parents have boys, so they can reach things on top shelves and so they can lug things around for their sisters. Makes perfect sense.  <br /><br />FF.NET Updates:<br />-Pendulum-Naruto. SasuNaru. Rated T.<br />-Something Like this-Naruto. SasuNaru. Rated M.<br />-With A Little Help From My Friends-Naruto.

                <description><![CDATA[ No, seriously, it HAS!!!  I have been combing through old chapters of Razorblade Shine, fixing everything, adding more, creating new scenes....It's gotten quite ridiculous.  But I've been hell bent on trying to have the old chapters all revised and at least the rough draft of all the remaining chapters done before I go away to college next Saturday.  It's been very stressful because I read and read and read through the old chapters and I still think that they are not quite up to where they should be...*sigh*<br /><br />As far as ff.net updates go, though, here's the list:<br />-Revised Prologue and chapters 1-5 of RBS posted<br />-New chapters 13 and 14 posted<br />-New one-shot story called The Ghost Song posted (I might make this a multi-chapter due to positive feedback and encouragement that I should. Hopefully I'll find some time!)<br /><br />Assent...has been coming very slowly.  I wrote a few paragraphs of chapter 3 yesterday until I hit a road block.  But I swear that I /will/ update this soon!! Maybe I'll take a few days off of RBS and really put some work into it.  <br /><br />And, of course, I have at least six other ideas bouncing around in my head, begging me to write them as well.  But I'm putting this off until I'm done with RBS.<br /><br />I've also been working on a new pic on my computer and will be posting a sneak peak of it today.  It still needs some major work, but it's coming along nicely.<br /><br />As far as good news goes, my cat came home a few days ago.  The strange part is that no one in my family had seen her for over a year.  My dad thinks that she was shacking up in the neighbor's house or something. I'm also posting a pic that I took of me and Toni, my cat.  She's a midget cat, the runt of her litter, and she looks like she's only about two months old, but she's really almost six years old.  I don't know, I was so happy to see her that I cried!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Okay, so who else went to go see the Dark Knight this weekend?? Lord, I was practically foaming at the mouth to get in there and watch the damn movie. And looooooved it!<br />Went to see it with <a href="http://dyingsoul2008.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/d/y/dyingsoul2008.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":icondyingsoul2008:" title="dyingsoul2008"/></a> and just....fucking wow! I always /liked/ the batman movies, but now I love them. And I became a Christian Bale fan (so there, Am, I'll let you have the Joker!) The acting in the movie and Heath Ledger made a simply amazing Joker. He was so much more sick and twisted than what I'm used to (the cartoons were always pg), but that's what made it so friggin' great. Jeez, I'm starting to sound like a movie critic. To sum up that long paragraph, Kelley <3's the Dark Knight. Wants to go see again and again.<br /><br />On a lighter but not particularly pleasant note, I sprained my left wrist by falling down the back steps of my house trying to prevent my Lily-cat from escaping. Again. Typing this is a major bitch, but I feel like I haven't updated my journal in a while, so I don't mind. It hurts regardless. Now I have to where this stupid cast/splint thing that makes my arm itch all day long.<br /><br />As a result of the sprained, it makes writing a veeeery slow go. So I appologize now for any major delays in my stories, though I doubt my ff.net-ers come here to check my journal. Assent is giving me major difficulties, especially because the way I mapped the chapters out, there should only be two left. But man, those chapters are going to be like 15,000 words each because so much is going on in them. So I might just go for it and make super long chapters or I might rework what's left of my outline and create 1-2 /more/ chapters. It's frustrating. Speaking of frustrating, there's Razorblade Shine. Heh, I've reworked the outline for the rest of it several times by now and still am not 100% satisfied with it. And I'm thinking about rewriting the previous chapters too, so it might be a little while until that's posted. I've been working on a few more short stories, but I'll probably put them on hold until I do some major work on the aforementioneds. <br /><br />I also have a few more pictures to post here on dA, but they first need some major tweaking on the computer before they are ready for that. It shouldn't be too long on them, though.<br /><br />I had Orientation and Registration for college last week. I don't see why it was two days long, but I got my classes scheduled and such. My schedule is kind of wack, to say the least, but it isn't too bad now that I'm getting used to the idea of it. I absolutely did /not/ want any classes after, say, 3pm but on Tues and Thurs, I don't even /go/ to class until 4.  It really isn't so bad though. We have move-in day in just over a month now, so I'm a little apprehensive and excited at the same time, though I suppose all freshmen are.<br /><br />The other day, I picked up Entertainment magazine at Wal-mart because it had the cast from the Twilight movie on the cover. I read the article, saw the actors in make-up, and for the first time, I'm reeeeeally excited about it. It will take a little getting used to to see Bella and Edward as anything other than how I pictured them in my head for the past several years. But I am majorly looking forward to December 12 now, when the movie comes out. And the last book comes out in about 2-3 weeks, which I'll have to go pre-order just as soon as my debit card comes in the mail sometime this week.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well, I can honestly say I've done very little that can even be considered productive since graduation.  It's true that I've been babysitting here and there, making a little money. And sure, I've been working on some stories here and there, but I haven't finished anything like I had hoped.  And I have been taking pictures more lately, so that isn't so bad, I guess. I do enjoy taking pictures of things. I just wish I had a half way decent camera to use. I'm thinking of getting a better digital camera with my grad. money, but I haven't decided just yet. I still need to get things for college. I'm also thinking of getting my 35mm fixed, or at least looked at. I miss that bad boy. <br /><br />So yesterday was cause for celebration. The last of my close friends finally hit the 18 year mark. Happy Birthday Kris! Happy(very)Belated Birthday(again!) Alicia!<br /><br />I went to Kris' party over the weekend and had fun, watching Ghostbusters, playing Disney Scene it minus the dvd, and asking everyone else if they were awake and recieving silence!! What wasn't so cool was the migraine I got, causing me to leave early. I felt really bad too, like I was a party pooper or something. Alicia's party is on Sat and Kris' other party is Sunday. Am is coming over tomorrow for a Supernatural-fest. Looking forward to that. Yay for Winchesters!!!!!!!!<br /><br />In other news, I dyed my hair last night. It's definately darker than I wanted, but overall, I kind of like it. It's practically black. I was trying to go for dark brown, but left the dye in waaaaay to long because I got distracted by the tv. So it was left in closer to an hour, rather than the 20-30 standard minutes. I didn't realize how badly my scalp was burning until I finally turned off the tv.  In all honesty, I think I'm allergic to store-bought hair dye because it always makes my scalp feel like its on fire. I really don't think it's supposed to do that!<br /><br />Starting Monday, I have to spend two weeks straight at my dad's house. I guess it will give me plenty of time to finish some of my stories and do some drawing. And I'll have plenty of time to finish Kris and Leash's b-day pressies which have been giving me a whole hell of a lot of difficulty. Stupid drawings won't come out right. It doesn't help that I crumple them up and then look at them ten minutes later, realizing that they weren't all that bad and only needed minor alterations, but are now too wrinkled to be considered salvageable. Oh well...<br /><br />And now, as for updates, I have some photos that I've taken within the last few days...<br /><br />Self-Portraits/ID's:<br />Searching<br />In the Jungle<br />Awake<br />Final<br />Tell Tale<br /><br />Other Photos:<br />Fog<br />Yellow Lily<br />Meow<br />Snakey<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ ...but oh well.  Jammed it into the desk a second ago.  I know, everyone really cares.  Didn't go to school yesterday because I didn't feel good.  And I just can't seem to shake this head ache I've had since about Tuesday or so.  I got really dizzy from it last night and fell over. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":-(" title=":-( (Sad)" /> As if that isn't enough, about five minutes after I first posted this journal, I found a huge cut on my thigh from my desk.  It didn't even  hurt until I looked at it.  I swear, I'm about the worlds clutziest person.  Or at leasst a strong contender for that title. Sheeesh!<br /><br />I'm excited because my package is finally coming tomorrow! Gosh, Amazon is so freaking slow with their free shipping. But what can you really expect with free shipping?? Translation: SSSSLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWW!! If I don't have my package tomorrow, I'll probably cry, because I've been waiting and waiting and waiting for the DN anime. So they should get it too me quickly, especially after they wouldn't let me order the 2 live action movies because they were out of stock! Okay, end of my stupid, childish rant.<br /><br />I'm kind of bummed because AP exams are in like two weeks or something and I've got to seriously start studying, especially for the Government one. I'm not all that worried about the English one as of right now, but I will be closer to the test I'm sure.  The bad thing is that studying means no writing, no drawing, no watching the Food Network. Man, am I bummed!!<br /><br />But enough about me!! My mom downloaded a new browser so I was finally able to post something.<br /><br />Updates:<br />Near 4/19/08<br />Haku 4/19/08<br />Tama 4/20/08<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Okay, well, today was a fairly ordinary day.  Went to school, came home, was lazy.  Sounds pretty typical to me.  I finally got around to updating some. Hurray.  Note the enthusiasm.  It's totally there, you just have to look for it.  Really hard.<br /><br />Anyway, I finally got all my college stuff straightened out.  A huge relief, really.  Now I just have to worry about scholarships.  Major pain in the netherregions, but that's my problem.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Okay, so I finally got around to posting some of my pictures and actually doing something with my profile...I'm such a procrastinator. But I figured since it is Christmas break and all, I have plenty of time, the most time I'll have until after graduation in the spring.<br />
<br />
Not that anyone really wants to read about my lack of time management. I know I don't, so I shall stop complaining right now.<br /><br /> ]]></description>
