Currently watching: The State of the Union Address

So I am just sitting here watching The State of the Union Address and I made a almost february resolution. Instead of writing a 600-800 word blog every week I am going to try to write a shorter blog every 1-2 days. I just didn’t have time to sit down and write a long blog that much but I will try to add a few longer ones when I have time.

So you may be wondering what homework assignment could be that great. I am making a journal of someone from the 18th century. My person was a 14 year old girl named Isobel Helen Williams. I thought it was pretty good I made a book by hand and printed out my pages to turn in it. My teacher thought it was really good. I will take a picture of it when my teacher is done grading it.

I also have some science and

GAAH.. I hate hate hate Bush!!! He is such a butt face. I strongly disagree with his views on immigration and the war in Iraq. I have to say the speech isn’t horrible so far and he has made some good points but I have very strong views about the war as I said before. A lot of people are clapping about what he is saying about Afghanistan.

I am working on a couple of new free layouts but I have to fix some the others first. I also am working on a couple of new brush sets..

I have another after school dance rehearsal which means I will be at school from 7:30 AM - 6:30 PM . I like dance but the after school rehearsals can be extremely tedious.

My mom is taking her class on a field trip to a puppet play tomorrow! They are so lucky.. My last field trip was to the art museum :P. It was insanely dull..

We have a new affiliate, Tasha, be sure to check her site out and say hello!

Well I should get back to my updates and editing..

So guess what peoples. I GOT A PRINTER! I know it’s that cool.. Actually it is. I’ve usually print using the PC’s printer (We have a ‘family’ PC aka. Evil Box of Doom!) I try not to use it unless I have to print and it’s too old to set up a network with.. Well the Evil Box of Doom got a virus and crashed so now not only is my dad kidnapping my laptop for half the day but I can’t print anything.. I have been wanting my own printer for a while because it takes forever to print on the PC because I have to turn on the PC log in get to my email download the attachment while my dad’s anti-virus software (so much for that..) scans it open Word and print it. Yeah it takes about 15 minutes and I end up late to school because of it.. Also if it’s late at night and I’m working upstairs there’s no way I am going back downstairs to print a stupid document.

Anyways.. I got a HP Photosmart C4280. It has a scanner so I can scan in more of my drawings for you guys and make brushes!! I still have to set it up but before then I have to clean up my room so I don’t have to set it up on my bed because you can’t stand on the floor.. I have a shelve under my desk I can put it where it wont take up much room which is good.. I am really excited because we are doing this project at school that requires stuff like printing.. It’s a really fun project I just couldn’t finish it before because I couldn’t print anything.

I am totally in love with this layout! It’s just what I wanted. I am also super proud of the CSS. It’s a lot more sophisticated that what I normally do and I tried to do something that’s a little more professional. I am just so happy to finally make a layout I really like. The last one was ok I just wasn’t head over heals in love with it like I normally am. This one I can’t stop staring at! lol.. So tell me what you think and seriously I would rather hear constructive criticism than ‘Ooh. Cute layout.’

I have a 37+ long list of songs I have to buy! It’s crazy.. It just keeps pilling up. I wish I hadn’t already spent all of my itunes gift cards!

I know this is a rather short blog so I will try to add more later.

XOXO & TTFN
