pues, la escuala ha me robado de me clase de espanol dosciento y tres, una ves mas. Tengo el credito para la clase, pero, es credito del examen de AP, entonces no me dejaran registrar hasta dos semanas de hoy, y la clase solomente tiene casi tres puestos, y por eso no hay una posibilidad realmente que podre tomar la clase, porque estara lleno. Ojala que tuvieran mas clases, O que acepten credito AP en total el dia que los recibieron. 
este verano, quando voy al caribe, no voy a recordar nada de me espanol, por que, aun ahora, no he tomado una clase, ni una conversacion, desde junio pasado.
me gusta esta escuela, pero a veces, me hace enojado, y esto no me gusta.

Quel fara!

*sigh* having never given anythign up for lent, and also realizing that i really need to cut back on art time to do my term papers, i tried to give up drawing for a month. it didn't work. it was 11:30 pm, i was in my room, alone, bored, exhausted, and sick to death of homework having done nothing else all day. and so i read a chapter from HP, and then drew two fan pic, which i really really like!! hehe...*hugs sirius, oogles harry* now all i need are some colored pencils....hmmm...yeah, and then i couldn't stop drawing them. it was suddenly 1:30 am and my eyes kept closing, and I kept adding detail, and inking over good parts, and shading and this and that...now it's 2 am...

eish. i have a serious art addiction...

quel fara!

aaaah, stupid computer!! for some reason it doesn't seem natural to me that a perfectly good publishing program can take 15 minutes to send a document to the printer. 15 minutes!!!! My goodness, what a waste of time! grrrr...

so busy, so much to do...and just barely enough time to do it in.

no amazing quote for today. sorry...my mind has been say off schedule.

I have a new hero. Alexis de Toqueville. Genius!!! Yes the French are kinda crazy, but every once in a while, by which i mean couple of centuries, they produce a man of inexplicable insight!

How do you make your boyfriend happy when he lives across the water and you have mountains of homework and other stuff to do then spend three hour of travel time each way and he's so depressed on the phone to talk much? 

man, that made me depressed. only a little. fortunately, i don't depress easily. I refuse to not enjoy my life!

dang, i want to hang out with Yoda! why is it that we can be best friends for five years and as soon as I move across the water, now we're dating? this makes no sense to me......

"O man, it is not you who make God, but rather God who makes you. Wait patiently for the hand of you Artist, who makes all things at the proper time. Present him with a heart that is supple and docile, preserve the imprint that this artist has given you, protect in yourself the Water that comes from Him, without with you will harden and lose the trace of His fingers. In preserving the modeling, you will mount up toward perfection, for the art of God will cover what in you is only clay. His hands have fashioned in you your very substance; He will adorn you with gold and silver, inside and out, and the King himself will be captured by your beauty."
- St. Irenaus of Lyons, "Against Heresies", IV, 39,2

what a gorgeous day. it looks like summer down there in the valley outsid emy window! and it's so warm. I'm wearing shorts and a tank top, in February. it's kinda insane but it feels like 75 degrees out there! it's so nice and warm, the shade actually feels calm and inviting rather than cold, and the sun is like a warm caress.
my room mate and I went down the hill to go shopping and it was so much fun! not like giddy girl shopping, but errands. not a cloud in the sky, and the mountains are out in all their majesty!!!

life certainly has it's moments, doesn't it? 

nothing matters right now, it's so amazing. the world is beautiful. I have great friends, a future of wonder, and whatever happens tomorrow, today was peaceful and wonderful. 

haaaa....God bless us all.
Lovs to Kairanie and Yoda! and chelle and anya and Chels and becca etc.

phew! i think i passed my history midterm. yep, think so. my hand is so sore! i have written for longer, but never as intensely! owie.
Got a new CD last weekend, Switchfoot. So good!
so much latin. I'm begining to regret taking the accelerated class. you have no time to get accustomed to anything before they throw something else at you. 
anywy, guess that's about it.

God Bless!

okay, i hope I won't normally be this obsessive about this, but as it's very very recent.....
Most of you will find it very sad, but at the ripe old age of 19 I have never had a boyfriend...untill last friday....
yay! Yoda and I have been best friends for about five and a half years, and decided last friday to give it a shot.  Yes, I am very very happy!  Just when I thought life couldn't get better.....

ah, life is so wonderful. No matter how bad things get, they can always get worse, but they are likely to get better.
Why can't every one be as happy as me? I don't know, but they should be.
anyway, yay, i'm going home, and I get to see yoda, and my moms' getting me stuff for making the Dean's list. yeah, i have no complaints about life! none at all!

Wow, so early, yet what a day!
Latin exam went fairly well. I was good and went really really slow and proved all my answers, so I think i did fairly well. But the best part was that after the test, another guy in the class, Neil, followed me out, and we started talking (not for the first time) and he asked me out to coffee right then! Well, that's not the best part, the best part is that he's from Scotland, and has the exact same accent as Billy Boyd! who, I am sure you all know, plays Pippin in LOTR. hehehe!
Nice guy.
anyway, back to homework! Retreat this weekend, so much fun!
God Bless!

Yay! I thought my midterm was today, and wonder of wonders! it's next monday! :D Happiness!
okay, so yeah, I have a serious huge amount of Latin to study for my exam on Friday, and a serious need for a job, and lots of reading for French History. Do I do it? Of course not! I sit in my room for five hours writing my own fantasy stories, and reading Harry Potter! Oh, yes, all of my academic discipline (and I had a lot of it as recently as last year, all of six AP classes and a play and a zillion other things, yes, I had NO life!) has all gone straight down the drain!
On the bright side, i'm still acing my classes. Surprising, not really! okay, i'm done.

wow, it's been a while. I have been pretty busy, both with just lots of stuff to do and with stressing out over needing a job! Yes, i am poor, and unemployed. grrrr.
But hey! life it still good.
i think i got all my pent up sketches out of my system which is good because now I can finish playing catch up in my classes. Yay!
 Last weekend I went to SPU and sent to one really cool lecture on the Lord of the Rings, got interviewd by the school newspaper, and meet John Rhys-Davis!!! (for those of you not way up on LOTR he plays the dwarf Gimli, and he's really just over six feet tall!) yeah1!! as soon as I have pics i'll upload them for all to marvel at!
God Bless!
