Salsa puke?
Wow, I haven't updated in almost a month. I think the daunting prospect of making a new layout scared me away. ^^;; This isn't really it; I doubt I'll last long with the splash image and icon. But, the colours are fun, which is what matters. I love using colour to set the mood. 8)

So, what happened over the past month? Bulleted list to the rescue!

• Took my finals and got my grades. Did pretty well, surprisingly.
• Wrote some poetry for my Creative Writing final submission, at least two pieces of which I'm really proud of.
• Went to a butterfly garden. Indescribably beautiful. Got to hold a butterfly on my finger.
• Mom's birthday.
• Went to see Spider-Man 3, which was pretty neat. Simultaneously reconciled with an estranged friend.
• Mother's Day. Tried a frappachino, which is really just a fancy milkshake, apparently.
• Went to my friend's birthday party. Played DDR and actually passed once. Ate many cookies. Geeked out.
• Went to my sister's band concert. Got frustrated because I couldn't take photos properly because someone 6'1" decided to sit in front of me (and I'm only 5'3"). Enjoyed the piano solos.

Between all that, I've made a few icons (some I'm proud of, some that probably won't see the light of day) and played video games a lot. I should really be more productive, seeing as how I have a pretty massive to-do list, but I can't help it. Video games are so addicting (and I only play late at night, which is when I'm least productive anyway. It helps me clear my mind so I can sleep). I started Ico, which is mostly a puzzle game where you have to figure out ways to use and manipulate the environment so that you and Yorda can get where you need to go. You do have to fight some monsters, but it's not as battle-oriented as Kingdom Hearts or Star Ocean. Speaking of which, I beat Kingdom Hearts II. Well, I didn't do any of the tournaments or side quests (except Atlantica, but I think you had to anyway?). Oh well. I'm the sort of person that gets bored doing side quests. ^^;; I'm also randomly replaying .hack//Infection just because. I hate Mimics. So much. D< Stop charming my party, kthnx. I'm the only one allowed to be charming!

Anyway, I hope everyone's been doing well since I've been MIA. I know Shanny's having a hard time, so go give her some love! I tried to, but I wasn't really sure what to say that wouldn't sound insincere over the Internet. I'm so useless at that sort of thing. =/

Later, guys~!
