2:14 pm Thu, Sep 17, 2009 - Quick Thought
Hello everyone.
I was watching the Colbert Report today (rerun of last night's show) and I saw about the textbook special. One person on the program was angry that terrorists were not identified as Muslim. Why should they be equated? Not all Muslims are terrorists and not all terrorists are Muslim. There are plenty of instances of terrorist activities that had nothing to do with the Muslims; look at East Timur(sp, sorry) and Indonesia for one.
As we're on the topic of education I still don't know why people were so angry about President Obama's speech to the kids. If anyone has a major impact on what a child thinks and does it is going to be their parents. Just because he spoke with them does not mean he said "I talked to you, you owe me, now be a democrat". He was encouraging them to try hard...
One last thought, LOUD does not equal correct.
Well, that's all. :-) Thanks for listing.

8:27 pm Sat, Jul 11, 2009 - Cat...
Holy crap I could just kick my cat (I won't mind you, I love him to pieces). When I came home this 4th weekend I had left my markers safely on the couch in their case and I found that he had gotten to 5 of them. That's roughly $30 worth of art supplies ruined! And unfortunately I needed them for the finishing touches on a project I'm working on for Ravyn.
So today we spent a really long time trying to find a Hobby Lobby that sells replacements and weren't all sold out. The one we found had to hide them behind the counter at the frame department because people kept stealing them. Geez, people. I know they're expensive but come on. That's not going to encourage the Hobby Lobby to keep them as a regular item.But anyway Ravyn's project is finished, I'm going to take pictures and Joey's sending them out either Monday or Tuesday morning.
Well, toodaloo peeps!

2:12 pm Thu, May 07, 2009 - One more final and a party!
Hello! I'm going to a party for people who took Japanese at my college tonight! I bought a bunch of Japanese snacks for it too. Two plastic bags worth, lol. I know I went overboard a bit but I really wanted to share a bunch of treats with everyone. I have my last final tonight and it is in my Japanese Cinema class! That is going to be really easy so I'm not worried. I'll post pictures of the party in the gallery later.
So, now that school is almost over and done with what am I planning you ask/think? I'm going to work on PTP first and foremost so I can have the first graphic novel done before the convention. I'm also going to try to have the first Corp. Agent's book ready for publication by the end of the year. I don't think these goals are too lofty right now. I'm also going to research into getting my teaching license so hopefully I'll have that sometime within the next year or so.
Well, that's it for now. Talk to ya'll later.

3:49 pm Sun, May 03, 2009 - Wow, it has been a WHILE!
Hello everyone! I know it has been a long time since I said anything but I am still here. I've been really busy this semester, and sick, and this past week my grandfather died. I had to go to his funeral on Thursday and Friday. I spent a good deal of Wednesday getting things ready for it though. I have only two finals next week, Math and Japanese Cinema, and then I graduate!(Hopefully, lol. I'm not so good at math...)
I am going to a convention this year! I'll update here with more information so if you're in the area you can come visit me and Ravyn. We're doing a table together. It is going to be in Arizona, I know that much. :)So maybe I'll see you there!
Toodles for now! :)
