College is coming up fast... too fast for my taste. I hate time. It's so mean to me DX I don't want to leave home. My parents are like my best friends and I won't get to see them as much. *sigh* I'm going to miss everything. :( And I'll have to be responsible.

Now let me tell you youngin's out there something: responsibility may give you the opportunity to finally get away from rules and choose everything on your own, but it also means you get to deal with money. NOT fun. :P Don't forget, you also may want to know how to cook your own food, clean your own room, and civily socialize with idiots. X3

I joined DeviantArt to work on my photography and graphic skills... I may even try improving my horrid art skills. X3 I realized how un-original alot of my work is. *facepalm* I need to push myself to be more creative. OH! and the japanese kid that was staying with us a while back, he went back to Japan. He was sooooo much fun! I kinda miss him... though he didn't hardly talk XD Well, the end.

Well... the good news is that I am no longer bored. :3 The bad is that I am now completely exhausted and do NOT want to do anything anymore. Entertaining a 14-year-old, foreign boy, who knows only a llittle english, for just three and a half days is exhausting. X)

He is very nice, and very fun. ^.^ We (meaning me and the rest of the fam) are enjoying him very much! He's leaving tomorrow morning to go on a camping trip with his groupies so we'll have a few days rest of entertaining. He really likes Kingdom Hearts.

We had some family time and played this Wii game called 'Just Dance 2'. O.O Very fun, but very very tiring. X3 Well, now I want to sleep and continue doing so until laaaate into tomorrow.

I went boating/tubing with a group of friends today. It was my first time and I LOVED IT! XD It was soooooo much fun! Besides the nasty, dirty fish water :3 Anyway, if you ever get a chance to do it, you need to. It's so much fun!

We're getting a Japanese exchange student for a few weeks. He's coming this weekend and I'm so excited! I took Japanese for two years in high school, so I hope I can somewhat understand him. X3 My mind is all loopy excited, I can hardly wait! I doubt he's the stereo-typical Japanese kid, but that would make it even better.

Other than those two fun things above, life is fairly boring. -.- I've got lots of chores, but I still have plenty of time to butt around and stare at random objects for long periods of time. :D It's a very time consuming process you know. ;3 Well, in the meantime, sayonara. ^.^

I is finally home! Yay, what a relief. I love dry weather and mountain spring water soooooo much! X3 It's good to be home.

I read and finished Death Note... =( It is the single most creepy and dreary thing I have ever read, manga or no. I think I might puke. I guess I was asking for it when I kept reading, but the story line was WAY wacko and had little to no happy ending. It'll be a while before I get over it. Perhaps I shall move back to Danny Phantom to take my mind off it. DX X3 Anyway, I think you could basically sum out that I didn't like it. I didn't even like the characters that much. I did like the author's art though...

Anyway, I'm glad to be back home... except that we are leaving again tomorrow afternoon to go to a family re-union for a couple of days. *face palm* Happy trails y'all.

I am so tired and so sore (especially my feet). We went to a theme park yestereday called Silver Dollar City. But, being the wimp and weak stomached imp that I am, I rode hardly any of the rides. X3 I did do the Magificent Wave Carousel and the 'Electro Spin'. Those were fun, but the flooded mine was without doubt, one of the most boring rides I've ever been on. I also did Lost River of the Ozarks... at least I think that was what it was called. Something like that. Anyway, it was one of those raft rides. Grandfather's mansion was pretty cool too, but it was an Attraction not a ride. :)

Well, it was definately exciting yesterday... today has been fairly boring, but that is plenty okay with me. I'm perfectly content with sitting around doing nothing after walking back and forth through a crowded park, waiting in lines for rides I wasn't going to ride.

I'm currently in Arkansas. We just left Texas this morning and arrived not too long ago. We're here visiting my other relatives X3 Anway, it's all very complicated and confusing so I won't try to explain. They have a HUGE house. It's amazing. I am sitting all by my self in the game room at this moment. Everyone else is swimming, talking, eating or running around on the first floor. All the cousins in this family are younger than me (three boys, two girls), but I stll have fun with them. This is one of the best trips. It can't quite top China, but hey; what can?

I'm dying for more of the story on 'Gaia Online'. DX They just finished a chapter and I'm sure they won't be doing another for a while. But it's so NERVE WRACKING! It just ended and I must know what happens!! AAAAAAHHH! Oh well, life will go on... for now. :3 The End.

Hope you all had a great Independence Day! If you don't know what I'm talking about, you're probably not American... otherwise I feel bad for you. ^.^ I had a great one. It's always wonderful to remember what a great country I live in and all the amazing opportunities it gives me. I'm grateful for the freedom and rights that my country allows me to live with, but I'm also grateful for the good laws that keep me safe.

I have a rainbow of glow sticks on right now. AND, my cousin taught me how to throw a football today. I stink at it, haha. :3 I am very sports-inept, but that's okay. I have alot of other talents.

I haven't drawn anything on the computer in a while. I don't really know what happened, but I think I had a low self-esteem with my abilities when it came to art. Everyone around me has always told me I draw really well, but I just keep comparing myself to the better. *head desk* I need to stop that and just keep doing what I do. I know I'll get better eventually. That's the other thing. I don't know if I have the patience. I think that's the bigger reason why I've kind of died in my hopes of becoming a cartoon artist. :P I don't think I have the patience for it. I'm better off sticking with coding, graphic design, photography and programming.

This trip is the bomb. My parents and extended family adults took me and my cousin out laser tagging and to dinner afterward. It was great, but we lost. I've never been on the winning team in laser tag. Oh well :3 I didn't do that bad. I was number seven in rank on our team and there were 12 of us, so I don't feel so bad about how I played. I'm not great yet, but someday... just someday.

This trip has been really fun so far! I finally got off Danny Phantom XP Just needed time away from it.

I've been trying out this free MMORPG game called Eden Eternal. It's really fun! Sooo, if anyone else plays it or gets around to playing it I'd love to know so we can play together, or be friends and take down some freaky monsters and such. X3 My username is 'mintyoreolover' and my characters are Melodious and Enmity. I think I'm going to be using Melodious more than the Enmity. She's a healer(bard). Anyway, just soos ya' know.

NOTICE: When you comment on my profile/in my guestbook, don't post the quote of our WHOLE previous conversation. It drives me bonkers when people do that. Ugh! All it does is take up space. I don't mind a single quote of what I said before so that I remember what it is you are answering and don't get confused, but for cryin' out loud don't post the whole stinkin' conversation. XP Thanks ;3
