Catch Up

I have been taking photos, but not blogging xD I was gone this weekend, and took along my smaller camera. Here goes a week of catch up posts!

I took out some acrylic paint and an old painting kit today and had a lot of fun :) working on a cow project from ages ago got tedious, so I pulled out a file folder (when I couldn't find any cardstock) and had fun creating something of my own! I added a bit of symbolism to the picture, which makes it more meaningful for me. This was so much fun, and it made me resolve to bring my brushes and paint with me to college next year, so I have something to do to relax. I also watched "Time Traveler" which was an interesting, weird movie. I'd watch it again just to see the beginning.

Meet JC. He is a pet of my friend, Victoria. I spent the afternoon/evening with her, and it was lovely. We made burritos, a collage, hung out, played wii, and talked. It reminded me of when I was young and went over to my friends houses more often :) JC likes to take baths, eat oranges, and make nests out of hair.

The above is a Ninja Man drawing from a group of youtubers. I won their drawing, and received said drawing, which was signed by the cast. It is very whimsical, and I am looking forward to having it in my dorm room. This picture does not have the signature on the top, "Gary Gase loves you!" The package made my day. I also got to go driving with my father, where I practiced three-point turns and driving above 20 mph. haha. I would have failed twice if it was the test, so I am glad that it wasn't.

A check came in the mail today from the Government. It was my wages for going to Jury Duty! I spent more time reading today, and sketched the picture above. I aim to watercolor it soon. I am also working more on powerpoints for my dad, and looking forward to Sport's Night at AWANA.

Today was very calm and kind of lethargic. I spent time reading, playing guitar and piano, and lazing around. Later I went to my College Group, and had a wonderful time learning and worshiping and hanging out. We stayed at Dennys until 12 am which was a new experience for me, and very fun :)

Today it was very gray and ho-hum. I took out a stack of books to read. I ended up finishing The Blindside and starting Anna and the King. Today (the 11th) I should finish Anna and the King. Later that day I got to work on another power point for my dad. He may hire me as a photographer for future projects! I also got to get out of the house and go to Starbucks with my mom and a bunch of her friends. It was a nice break from the hoopla of a house of six kids. I got some work done, chatted with friends, saw friends come in and out of the store, and relaxed.
