Blooooooggggginggg

All righty then...
I realized the other day that I need to do at least one real blog a week, or it will look bad that all I do is youtube tuesdays. (Speaking of, I had them planned out for like three weeks, but I forgot what I was going to do. I'll try to remember. *sigh*) I'm also behind in blogs (still need to write about Thanksgiving, field trip, and much more). Today I thought I'd do a general update blog. Well, I'm currently coughing up my lungs. There's an illness going around the house that has knocked down me and Mom. If I don't post again, it's because it has killed me. (However, I think I may have lost a pound. *grins*) School is almost over - I have three finals next week, then I'm done 'til January 12th. I've got Math and Literature finals on Monday, and the Religions final on Wednesday. But wait! You're wondering why I didn't mention my Spanish and geology finals, right? Well, I took the Spanish one last week (he offered it early and I wanted to just get done), and I'm exempt from the Geology final for getting straight As on the tests this semester. (Except for the one last Thursday, but everyone failed that one...we get one test grade dropped, and that was mine. ^^") *happy dance of exemptness* Of the finals left, the only that will be any possible problem is the Math one...but I calculated it, and as long as I don't get below a 70, I'll get a B. Though Math is my worst subject, I should be able to get at least a 70. What else? I've been trying to sneak in more art-stuffs. This weekend I continued work on a project I've been meaning to do. It's kind of an experiment. When we went to Build-A-Bear a couple months ago and got animals, the animals were sent home in little box houses. I've kept mine all this time, 'cause I'm going to colour each of the four outsides with a different medium, then decorate the inside. I probably won't keep it for very long afterwards, but it will be an interesting experiment. I've already done three sides (marker, coloured pencil, and oil pastel). The fourth will be watercolour paints. I'm also a bit behind in requests from people online, and I'm working to catch up on that. There'll be some human pictures, an animal or two of various species. There's a foxlike canine I'm working on that I'm quite happy with so far. He's got a lot of expression in his face, which is something I usually have problems with in animal pictures. I've also tried my hand at making treats a couple different times this week, with varying amounts of success. First, since we had old bananas, I thought I'd make banana sludge...I mean bread. Unfortunately, the flour container was empty, and I mistook the powdered sugar for the flour. Yuck. It was bad. My later attempt at making Muddy Buddies turned out better. There was a girl in my Spanish class who had them a couple weeks ago, and I wanted to try them. They're pretty good. Better than the banana bread, that's for sure. What else have I been spending my time doing? Well, I reorganized my bookmarks the other day. I'd given up on some sites and joined others and it was getting to be a mess. One of the sites I joined is facebook. Mom joined a couple weeks ago, and her comments on the strange pointlessness of it made me curious, so I joined. I like it better than myspace, at least.
The other interesting site I recently joined is Wajas. It's an animal sim, for those who know the type, but the main thing to do is breed the canines together. It's a very complex breeding system, actually. Rather addicting. ^^ The art is beautiful, too.
If you join, I'll give you a free pup.
There's several other new sites I've joined, but none thrilling enough to talk about right now. *grins* Maybe another post.

Sooooo...I think I've run out of things I want to talk about for now. Gotta save some ideas for next time. *grins*
Hope I think of those youtubes I was going to link before tuesday. *frowns*
