My brother got that lego set I won him today, it was one of those huge ones, which is now taking up the entire cawfee table. Well, 3/4 of it anyways.

The computer is going painfully slow.

Update number one:Legend of Dragoon is a pretty good video game, even if it is a uber rip off of FFVII, which is the best game (sides Chrono Cross)
Update number two:
=( My mom has a wheat allergy or intolerance or something...and I think I might have it too. I am TRYING to cut wheat out of my diet but it's HARD. Also, we had thought that it was diary foods that I had problem with but what if...it's both?!?! eep. well, I'm going to eat lots of fruits and veggies...and tofu. ^_^
Update number three:
me and rin played dressup, I'll post the...er... results later.
Update number four:
anyone know japanese? I'm trying to learn, and want to be somewhat fluent by the time I go to college....I'm good with language. =)

This is a picture I drew of Artemys and Maith from my story, and I'm very very proud of the outcome I think. Her face looks a little funny, and Maith reminds me of a fish... Sorry maith.
Maith: Anger...
Me: Oh no!
Maith:....
Me...
Maith:....
Me: ha! you blinked! I win!
Maith: Frustration... Fury....
ANYways... haha, I love me characters. I wish I could do the whole story like that, I really do hate describing things. It's takes WAY to long, and I love dialogue. That's why mostly everything I write is in first person.
Artemys: I thought It was because you were lazy.
LOL! Spilt personality disorder, haha. Anyways
I found a quote I liked, though I don't remember it exactly. something like :"i'm a vegetarian BETWEEN meals" haha. It reminded me of me.
My little brother is reading over my shoulder... and laughing at my lame jokes, so it makes it alright. I mean, if he was just sighing at me, I would throw him out the window. Not really, just wanted to hear his response. he's still laughing. Silly kid thinks I'm kidding.....
He wants me to draw him an Artemys and Maith piccy....if only everyone could be so appreciative. ^_^
That's all I suppose... ^_^ ~Skootle

| So I got bored today, this is what happened: What Your Pizza Reveals |
 You eat like a European. A little bit of everything, but too much. You stay svelt through portion control. You consider pizza to be bread... very good bread. You fit in best in the Midwest part of the US. You like food that's traditional and well crafted. You aren't impressed with "gourmet" foods. You are generous, outgoing, and considerate with your choices. You are fun and imaginative. You should consider traveling to Brazil. The stereotype that best fits you is hippie. You knew it was coming. |
What Does Your Pizza Say About You?
| Your PMS Disaster Level: Medium |
 You definitely are a bit of a wreck once a month. But as long as remember to take it easy, your PMS isn't a major crisis. |
| You Are a Moderate Mama |
 You're not overly political, and your views fall more with the American mainstream. In fact, it may be difficult for you to decide who to vote for at times! Your approach to politics is reasoned and well though out. |
| You Are Picky When it Counts |
 Like most sane women, you want a great guy who will treat you well. But you're also willing to put up with a few flaws in your Mr. Right You should congratulate yourself on having a realistic approach to dating. You probably have quite a few great guys you can date! |
| You Make a Good First Impression |
 You probably are making a much better impression than you realize. Social situations can be a bit awkward for you at times, and you tend to over think what you say and do. If you make a social faux pas, you remember it a lot longer than anyone else does. Just relax and do your best. There are little things you can do to improve your social image. Express more of an interest in the people around you, and be a good listener. The secret of fascinating people is that they find everyone else fascinating! |
| Your Superpower Should Be Invisibility |
 You are stealth, complex, and creative. You never face problems head on. Instead, you rely on your craftiness to get your way. A mystery to others, you thrive on being a little misunderstood. You happily work behind the scenes... because there's nothing better than a sneak attack! Why you would be a good superhero: You're so sly, no one would notice... not even your best friends Your biggest problem as a superhero: Missing out on all of the glory that visible superheroes get |

| You Are 85% Real |
 There's hardly a person on this earth more real than you are. You have no problem showing people who you are, flaws and all. For you, there couldn't be any other way.

After all, the world is a strange place. However, you're going to need some convincing before you can believe in aliens or reincarnation! |
| You Are a Little Messy |
 You aren't the cleanest person in the world, but you're definitely not a slob. You clean up when you have the time, but you're realistic about what you can get done. Generally, you're pretty organized and tidy - though you may have a few hidden messes. You eventually get around to making things spotless, but you do it on your own schedule! |

| You Are 55% Normal |
 While some of your behavior is quite normal... Other things you do are downright strange You've got a little of your freak going on But you mostly keep your weirdness to yourself |

That's all I suppose... ^_^ ~Skootle
I was thinking about food today. As the hot dogs were cooking (not even the nathan ones, the icky ocsar mayer) my mom said "eeewww they smell good" and I returned with a rather witty "they are specially designed with your taste buds in mind!"but...think about that... should food really be *designed*????
shouldn't it be grown, and not manufactured?
eeeeewwww?!?!?!
and did you guys hear about a while ago, when they said that there was melomene (basically poison) in chicken, and the FDA, says "well, if you eat a little bit, it's ok"
oh yes, a little bit of poison is a-ok.....wait, what????
Hopefully my mom doesn't agree with this, that might spawn a new sort of punishment... just kidding! (I only wrote that cause mom reads my blog...)
But seriously, what kinda of culture do we live in where the thought that "A little bit of poison" is ok??
Don't get me wrong, I love America....well, I loved what America was supposed to be. But not so much the people that are running it... No, it's not even that, it's the attitude that those people have...
AND it also is frustrating that all the healthy food is so expensive! A nice good for you meal should be just as much money that a meal a mcdonalds is (well... maybe. I guess mcdonalds is cheaper cause it's not really food anymore....) lol.
That's all I suppose... ^_^ ~Skootle
