Hey Guys!
Still in Florida. YAY! We leave tomorrow. BOOO! So anywho. Yesterday we went to MOSI in Tampa. A big dissapointment. The place was a wreck and the exibits weren't working. It wasn't cheap either. I was also quite tramatized there as well. I don't know if you have heard about the "Bodies" exhibit going through science museums across the country. It was at MOSI. It is very contriversial for one reason. They used real human "specimen" for the exhibit. I was thinking it was only one. No big deal right? Yeah. The whole display, everything, was once part of a living human being. That really bothered me. I get kinda queasy at that stuff anyways, but it was real bad for me. I practically ran through the exhibit. My dad was really concerned with how I was holding up. I wasn't. One particular one that bothered me was a "specimen" cut up into see through slabs about half an inch thick. The whole body. People cut in halves, quarters, people with their muscles removed facing the bones that were once hidden in them. Brains, lungs, cancer, fetuses, birth defects. They had it all. I was literally crying at the end. These people donated their bodies to science, and instead had their bodies disected for the public gawking. The argument was the exhibit was educational. It was, but it really was a principle of moral values.

On a way lighter and less gory note, I don't know. That is the first museum exhibit that has ever given me a nightmare.

Oh! I plan to do a Disney recap, with pictures! Look for it!
See ya!

FLORIDA, HERE I COME!

Well, tomorrow's the big day! I finished my packing last night while my sister danced around me. It was a little akward. I have now become super addicted to Bleach, so I may be doing a ton of Bleach drawings in black and white. As I read it, I'm like, "I wanna draw that." So I think my goal is to get more fanart up after vacation. Yay!

In more local news, we got more snow, 4-6 inches. School is not canceled, but there was a rumor that it would be because the bus companies were pissed off at the school district for Monday. I want a snow day!

If you update art, or have something really important you would like to share, PM me or leave a comment and I will get back to you ASAP. I cleaned out my inbox just for the occasion, but I highly doubt anyone will actually PM me.

This is it guys! I will see if we have computer access at our hotel, but don't really count on it too much, it's Disney World for goodness sake! I'll miss you guys!

See ya

Parent Teacher Conferences
Don't cha just love 'em? So my parents went last night, and I was really kinda nervous. Under such weird circumstances do parents and teachers meet, and I assume they are really akward. Any ways, all of my teachers "love" me (That is my mom's word, not mine). I always look forward to what my dad is going to do to my english teacher. He really knows how to make people squirm. So for the ten minutes they talked, my dad
1. Stared him down
2. "Stabbed him in the heart"
3. "Drop-kicked him to the next county"
The ones he did in quotes were the figure of speech ones. The first one he actually did. Sometimes I wonder.

On another note, I have completed volumes 1,2, and 3 of Bleach. It is super addicting. Yay manga addicts!
See ya

Let me just say this. We should not have had school yesterday. The roads were a complete mess, and teenage drivers should not have been out yesterday morning. There were about 12 crashes, another handful of buses in ditches, and a 5 car pile up including: 2 buses, 1 car, 1 SUV, and 1 cop car. Two of the cars had high school students in them. There were no deaths, but a few serious injuries. Just imagine if there was a death, how it would feel to be the superintendent and know that you could have prevented it by calling off school. Even the teachers arrived late. Yesterday suqed.

On a much lighter note, I took a zinc pill this morning. WOOHOO!

And that's about if for me this morning.
See ya

The Fluffy White Stuff, with an Added Heart Attack.
I woke up this morning with 10 inches of snow outside. Now do you see why I am so excited to leave this snow hole? I really don't know why I am complaining. This is the most snow we've had in a year. That's right it does snow in April here, a lot.

Any who, we started taking zinc for our immun systems so we don't get sick for the recycled air on the plane. YAY ZINC!

Oh, thanks all three people who voted on "Jungle." Really appreciate it.
See ya

Yesterday was a Good Day
I really needed yesterday. I pretty much did nothing the whole day. It was the Boys Class A State Hockey tourny, and our school's game was at 12 so the school was empty at 9:30. The rest of my classes had like 7 people in them, including the teacher. It was good just to relax. In spanish we watched Spirirted Away, which I had on hand for my english class. YAY! I feel better now! ^^

I had a minor breakdown last night. I am cracking under the pressure, and I can only wish those 8 days come faster. These past few weeks really have suqed. I have to set aside 2 hours every night for Government notes, these past 4 days I have spent almost 12 hours trying to finish my english project, set aside another hour for applications, and the rest of the time is devoted to other homerwork. No time to do anything. I am sorry if I won't be on the computer that much, but I need to focus on school a little more. My mind is already in Florida. I don't know if I'm gonna make it.

Yay! It works again!
Everythings cool with my site, except for the random deletion of gb sigs. Whatever.
I know this is really belayed, but it came to me last night. It's an award. SM's "Hit" list. Every time I get 100 more hits, another name will be added to the list.
For the first 100 hits, my award goes to Caprice. For many reasons you made the list, so this is a thank you.

Ooh. Crap! My english project isn't done! Dang!
I'll leave every one alone now,
see ya
