    when i was going to take anthropology

    I AM TAKING ANTHROPOLOGY!!!!!! Hee!! Anyway. I went in to see what other class I could scrape up for this semester, and she’s looking for an Liberal Arts class in the right time frame (I needed more LA classes), and she goes “All I’ve got is History of Math and Anthropology.” And I think I practically leapt across the desk…

    when it was stormy

    I have to go up to school today. And then after that I have to go to my mom’s new school to see her class room. Guess I’ll stop on my way home – if it’s not raining too hard – and get that colour remover I need. It’s storming really good here right now. It’s nice. It’s keeping it…

    when i read the princess diaries

    I really, really love Meg Cabot’s The Princess Diaries series. It’s not exactly my normal reading material, but the movie was a bit of a guilty pleasure for me, so I ended up buying the second book in the series while in Jackson last month. Well, if you go read the books now, make sure you read the FIRST one…

    when contacts were super expensive

    Ash – if you see this, I found black contact lenses. I was wrong about the price. It’s higher. $150 for a pair that doesn’t cover the entire eye, $325 for a pair that covers the whole eye. (if anyone knows where one can get black contact lenses ala Evil willow for a cheaper price, let me know.) Um. I…

    when it was time to go to mtac

    Leaving for MTAC in a few minutes. All week long I have been fighting this horrible zit. I *only* get zits when I’m stressed, which only adds to my stress, of course. Well this one was a doozy. Mom bought me these neutrogena “on the spot” acne patches. Those things are worthless, don’t waste your time. A) they didn’t have…

    Art Post: Ah! My Goddess

    Markers on illustration board…. Another one to take with me to Otakon. Skuld looks like there should be a bluebird on her hand (really she should be holding her hammer thing, but I forgot to ink that part so it got left off)
