:A peek into my sketchbook:

Medium: ink
To be coming soon - more sketches and watercolors. I want to get real feedback about my stuff (love my family and all but they are family, and think that if I did it it has to be good).  So, I'll say it again... Coming soon!

Some Changes

Some new changes have came around to my trail in the woods, hope you like them all! More to come still


A new header... of sorts.

Really like this quote

I think this quote is so true and the picture was SO perfect for it!

I'm very happy how this turned out - another top five favorite quote

ME! Or at least - my new profile picture

Confessions of a wanna-be blogger

I'm on, I'm off... I'm off again - then back! And all that jiggiejig stuff.

I honestly don't know why I keep on going back and forth (and back and forth)... it gets annoying sometimes (so sorry)
When on blogger: *whine* "I don't want to post! Why do I even post anything at all? *whine, whine, whine*
Then...
When Not on blogger: "Oh, I should post about that! ... wait... never mind."

You get the picture.
So, I'm just going to be randomly posting... I think it's what works (with life in full scale right now it's the only thing to do)

So, what's been happenin' my peeps?
Me? Oh, not much really. Just a few favorites...
Despicable Me. Love this movie!
Margo, Edith and Anges ... pretty sums up the only three girls in my family (I'm Edith btw...*grins*)
"...Um, it was your cousins idea!" "Whaaaaaaaattttt?" (I died watching that the first time with a friend=)
I've fallen in love with these little guys - gross hair and all!


Random picture of me... sorry. but I have to show off my new bangs.

Christmas Eve morning in 2009 and this year. Same place but almost totally different people. But, that's what my mom says.
 
THIS. IS. THE. COOLEST. KNIFE. EVER. Thank you so much Ari!!

What you ought to know... Yeah, this guy is great.


Anyhow, I'll end this now with this.
Merry Christmas!

Friendship

Is it not amazing? How two (or more) people, in whatever walks and levels of life - sisters and brothers through Christ, can have friendships that are just awesome? It's inspiring.

Lërown is someone I can call my dear friend - and the quote (don't know who by) "God made us friends because he knew our mothers couldn't handle us as sisters" describes us greatly (or so I've heard from my mother). I've known Lërown nearly her whole life (we were neighbors back in the day) and she is just awesome. We also get along great, in that way that lots of people do, with opposites. She's outgoing, and I'm shy/quiet(-er. Not "super" though), and I just love her (and miss her!!! Even her annoying me to death by pinching my nose.=P)
So anyway - what I'm trying to say is - Go Check out her blog (after NaNo though - you could be a dear and follow her and write an encouraging comment for her writing!). Here at Purple Dreams (Is that not just a creative/fun title. I can't get over it!)
(btw. Isn't her purple hair awesome!? In the pic above, you can see her purple and can slightly see my red=)

"I think we should sometimes read stories where everything's different from our world, don't you agree? There's nothing like it for teaching us to wonder why trees are green and not red, and why we have five fingers rather then six."
