New Blog Layout!

So, what do you guys think? As you can see, I've totally changed the layout of my blog. New background, new fonts, new side for the sidebar, all that jazz. I've added a few new things and removed a few things, too. Let me know what you think!



P.S. I was thinking of Reesie as I added the "Search This Blog" thing down at the very bottom of the screen... Enjoy it, Reesie.

Things I have learned from life

1. I'M AN IDIOT. You know it's true.
2. Even when I think I'm being smart, I'm usually not.
3. Life's not all about me. Duh.
4. Sometimes it's just better to shut up.
5. I can agree with something someone says without actually liking them, but I always have to love them.
6. Crushes are stupid, but unavoidable.
7. Goals are good.
8. Procrastination gets me no where.
9. Music solves lots of mental problems.
10. Brothers weren't meant to be enemies.
11. My best friend can be my mother. =)
12. The only opinion that really matters is God's.
13. Bad days happen, but I just have to look at them with a smile to make them better.
14. Some people are just mean, but I have to be nice back.
15. All I can do is tell someone what I believe, I can't make them believe it.
16. Calling someone stupid doesn't make them anymore stupid than me. =P
17. Ironing is very relaxing...
18. The world may be a sad place, but that doesn't mean I have to be sad.
19. Writing is the thing I'm best at. That, and folding laundry.
20. I can dwell on the bad things, but I need to be thankful for that which God has given me.

This is a test or the Mii-mergency Blogcasting System

AKA, this is a blog post of random subjects. The first subject: DOES ANYONE SERIOUSLY READ THIS STUPID BLOG?? I wouldn't blame you if you don't, but I would be very happy if you did. AND POSTED OCCASIONALLY. I mean, would it KILL YOU to leave a comment every once and a while? Yes? Well...I'll admit I wasn't expecting THAT answer...

But seriously, the sidebar claims there are eight PWMRLMB, and yet...I think only one of you has posted on more than one blog post...and even that one PWMRLMB only posts ocasionally... It makes Mii so sad... *sniff*


Next Subject: Vacation!!! We went on one last week, for the whole week. First time we've gone away from home for a week since the Mayo trip, and first time we've gone on a week-long REAL vacation. I mean, you can't really count the medical wonders of Mayo a real vacation when I was being poked and proded a lot of the time. *shakes head* But this vacation was waaaaaay fun! We rented a cottage UP North, did a lot of fishing (I get guilty for a short period of time when I catch fish that are actually big enough to keep... >.> Yes, I'm a strange person...), saw some cool sights, did more fishing, lost a hat in the wind, took a ton of pictures, saw some relatives, got a Cabbage Patch doll from grandma (...>.>...<.<...) then came home. *sigh* It was soooooo much fun!! I loved it. Plus, it's not all over yet! Tomorrow we're leaving for a different location for a couple days. =)

Another Subject: Birthday!! I'm having a birthday soon!!! I shall not tell you when it is or how old I will be turning, I shall let you guess. *NOTE* THHers, you don't get to guess correctly, because you'll all ready know. And I don't want any cheating. =P

Final Subject: If any of you read my fanfics, I would love to know what you think of them. If you don't, that's fine. I'll keep writing them anyways.

This has merely been a test of the Mii-mergency Blogcasting System. Thank you for tuning in.

Grammar, Spelling, and Capitalization

Okay, I realize that some of you (my readers) don't use correct spelling, capitalization, and grammar. And I realize that I sometimes misspell words, forget punctuation, and use improper grammar, but can't people at least make an effort to try to spell right? Or capitalize words at the beginning of sentences? Please? It makes it so much easier to read your posts and everything... I mean, why do people do it? Really? Is it easier to type? Okay, I'm going to try to type in "text talk" for a sentence and see if it's any easier than regular typing.

k this is me typing n txt tlk n no its not easier its the same

Although I do have to remind myself not to put in commas or anything... I mean, seriously, which is easier to read? *sigh* I guess that because I write like a maniac, this just bugs me a little. --_--

Sorry if I offended any of you guys, I just wanted to say it. And I realize that I also forget to spell correctly and everything sometimes. So this is a post about me, too. Just voicing my opinion. No hard feelings. I still love you guys, I just had to get this off my chest. *deep breath* Ah, much better.

Whew!

Okay, I've been meaning to post the following, but haven't been able to. So here it is, what me and my family did last week. (Starting with the Saturday before last)

Saturday:

We drove up to visit some of our relatives, we mainly wanted to see Grandma because, well, we hadn't in forever. On a good day, the drive is three hours. We got up there and stayed the night with my Uncle Pete and Aunt Betty. (I have some cool pictures of stuff in their house.) We all had fun, and my baby brother enjoyed playing on their "rocking plane" and playing with all of their toys. After a while, we went to bed. Bigger/younger brother (the brother that's not that baby...the baby's not really a baby any more, he's three, but for clarity the three year old with be called "baby brother" and the other one will be called "other brother" :P)...where were we before the rabbit trail? Oh, right, "Other brother" and I slept on inflatable sleeping bags. They were nifty. His was camo, I think, and mine had really bright flowers on it.

Sunday:

We had monkey bread for breakfast, went to a church up there, I went to junior church with baby brother, (which wasn't half bad, actually...) then we went to visit Grandma. We had lunch at her house, and I ate so much that I should have been writhing in pain the rest of the day, but I only got a small stomach ache. (Remember that, okay?) For the rest of the day, we watched Harry Potter. (Insert smilie here) I know you're thinking "What? I thought you went to spend time with your Grandma!" And we did. Thing with that side of the family is, though, that when you get together, you just kinda...chill. Watch TV, talk, eat, that kinda stuff. Nothin' really spiffy. Besides, she was watching it with us. :P (She didn't get it at all...and I had to explain lots to dad because he hasn't read the books. Tisk tisk...) Anyhoo, we watched part of the second one, and most of the third one...I think... (Can't totally remember, though...) Then, when we were getting hungry-ish, we took Grandma to Big Boy. (Oh, while we were there, my Aunt Jean and cousin Micheal came over for a little, and we saw Uncle Caz.) After dinner, we started going home around...eight or nine...AND HEADED STRAIGHT INTO A BLIZZARD!!! O_O We drove for like, five hours!!!! We were all exhausted when we got home...

Monday:

Monday was a day of rest. Me and my bros and dad slept in, no school. Mom did have to go to work, though. :( We went to choir that evening, and it was fun. :) (I ACTUALLY HAVE BUDDIES THERE, NOW! WHOO!!)

Tuesday:

Dentist. bleeeeech...

Wednesday:

We packed to go to the Great Wolf Lodge! (We have one in our area, it rocks.) After dad got home, we went to have fun! We played in the water park, played Magi Quest, had a blast!!!

Thursday:

Played more at GWL, then came home laaaaaaaate at night. We got ice cream before we went home. :)

Friday:

Around seven o'clock ish, some of our friends came over. We had been cleaning the house up when we were home during the week, and we had been cleaning and stuff before they came that day, too. When they FINALLY got here, they stayed until...three a.m., ish? Oh yeah, it was a blast. Tacos, card games, talking, laughing, snacks...pure awesomeness. (We also watched Glenn Beck before they came, and let me tell you, he'll be getting a post pretty soon. Go Beck!)

Saturday:

After we all woke from our comas, we went back to the Great Wolf Lodge. :D I'm pretty sure my baby brother is starting to think of it as a second home after this week. :P Lemme tell ya, I could live at a GWL...

Sunday:

We went to church and relaxed. Busy week...fun week. I love it when dad has vacation time. :)

Monday:

Choir, again. Not as fun as the week before, but not torture. :P

Tuesday:

Once again, we went to the Great Wolf Lodge! (We had time left on our wands, little did we know our bands would be good too! But we didn't bring swim stuff... *sigh*) Came home when we were done playing and watched American Idol. GO DANNY GOKE!!! My fave quote from American Idol was "It left me confused...yet, happy!" I almost fell off my chair I laughed so hard when I heard that.

Wednesday:

Real life...but it's pretty good. :)

Okay, now you're all caught up on my life...I guess. We had fun, and I hope you had fun too. :D

Valentine's Day!

I wanted to draw some Fairies, so I did. And I made them into a Valentine's day card for my Grandma on my dad's side! :D

This one's for my grandma and grandpa on my mom's side of the family. :) Isn't he cute?

Hope you have a good Valentine's Day! I drew these myself. (duh. :P) Enjoy! :D

P.S. Do any of you know the origin of Valentine's

day? Just curious.

I have two followers...

And I have no idea who one is. I know one, but I'm clueless as to who "Briant" is...so could "Briant" please inform me?? Or someone?? Okay, that's all. Besides "Yay! I have two followers! Whoo! Someone reads my silly little blog!" :P Okay, enjoy your day.

(I just realized that "Followers" sounds really...weird...so I'm going to call them "People who really like my blog", if they're in future blog posts...so they'll be "PWRLMB" :P)

MY FIRST REQUEST!!!

This is my first request. It was made by two friends of mine. The story behind it is one day we were being goofy and we pretended we were a band. I'm the one with the brown hair, the one on the drums is Sadie, and the one with the other guitar is Aussie. (These were online friends, by the way. :P) The girl off to the side of the stage wanted to be in the picture/band AFTER I had finished outlining it, so I was like "GAH!" So I added her to the audience. :P Her name's Reesie. :P Well, not her real name...but you get what I mean. Anyhoo, MY FIRST REQUEST FROM PEOPLE NOT IN MY FAMILY! WHOO!! *happy dances*

Okay, that's all. :D

A few more pictures

This is a picture of Sonic and the gang, in cartoon form and then I drew them in people form!

This is inspired by an Adventures in Odyssey episode.

And me and a buddy being superhero duo of the universe! :P

Enjoy! :D

I love church...

A year ago, I probably wouldn't have said that to you. I dunno where we were a year ago, but I know it wasn't here. But I love it at our church. Our pastor makes you look at things differently, and it's really good. He taught our Sunday school lesson this Sunday, and it was about Psalm 23. He had us write it down, then split it up into 9 couplets, like a poem. When we looked at it again, we realized there was a beginning, middle, and an end. We just looked at it in a different way. It was awesome. :) I thank God that I like my church so much, and the people there too.

AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

:D Have a great new year, guys! My New Year's Resolution: Not to have as many stomach aches. Whoo! :D

EEEEP!!! *girlish scream of happiness* I'VE BEEN PUBLISHED!!!

Okay, okay, I know what you're thinking. You're thinking "Your book got published! Mii that's totally awesome!!!" But it wasn't my book. A bazillion years ago, I sent in a picture to Focus on the Family's Adventures in Odyssey department thingy. It was inspired by a certain episode of the radio series. (Which, is totally awesome, no matter what age you are.) And, they've just come out with a new book that has a bunch of things about Odyssey in it. And they just happened to publish some pictures in it as well. AND ONE OF THEM WAS MINE!!! Okay, the picture is totally awful, as far as I can remember, but I've been published!!!! EEEEP!!! And, to add to this happiness, I GOT THE LETTER THAT SAID MY BOOK WAS OFFICIALLY COPYRIGHTED!!!!!! Today is wonderful...and I drew an awesome picture. :P *sigh of pure bliss* I hope that you, too, will be happy today. :D

It's our anniversary!

About, anyways. My tummy ache and I have been together for a whole year! :D *fake happiness* Woo-hoo! It was about this time last year when I got my first tummy ache in this series...or mess...or saga. I call it "Episode 3: Return of the Pain!" :P Last year, between the 21 and the 28, we went to Little Cesar's pizza, and I got my first tummy ache...the beginning of Episode 1...Oh well, at least I'm not moping! I want flowers and get well cards to celebrate, cause if you have a year long tummy ache, you don't get "Get Well Soon!" cards, or flowers. If you have surgery or something like that, you get that stuff. IT'S NOT FAIR! *whines* :P *sigh* Well, I'm off...

*cue whiney voice here*

My teacher is so mean! I was supposed to write this assignment for Grammar class, and she gave me a B!! MINUS! *sniffle* And she said one of my sentences was CRAPPY! *sobs* Her exact word! *sniffle* she's so mean! She didn't even have any sympathy when I produced (semi) real tears! (okay, so they were totally fake...) WAAAAH! *glares at mother--I mean teacher) So mean. JUST BECAUSE I WROTE A BOOK DOESN'T MEAN EVERYTHING I WRITE IS GONNA BE PERFECT!

*Note this message was totally sarcastic*

Well, that's all, folks...

According to the doctors, I'm crazy. But you all already knew that. :P Seriously though, we've hit a dead end. No more. Nothing else we can do. My stomach ache will forever remain a mystery. They have found nothing medically wrong with me, but I think--no, I KNOW that it's NOT in my head. If it was, I'd have a tummy ache all the time, or whenever I thought about the thing that I was depressed or whatever about. But I get a stomach ache WHEN I EAT and AFTER I EAT. So that wouldn't make sense. That, and I think there's a girl with the same thing I have. I have to get more info before I know for sure, but I'm pretty sure that we have the same thing. *sigh* You know what, you'd think I'd feel worse than that, but I don't. I know that there's a plan for my life, and I know I'm not crazy. I know God's gonna help me. I know He'll help all of you too. Prayin'.

To my sister,

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hr0Wv5DJhuk MAKE UP YOUR MIND ALREADY! i think this song was specially written for you. :P Nice tune though...

Yeah, we fight, BUT I DON'T HATE YOU! Just remember that, okay? WE'RE SISTERS FOR PETE'S SAKE! We fight, we scream, we storm away, we lock ourselves in our rooms and (possibly) cry (or just fume to our pillows) then try not to let anyone notice. Then, after about an hour, WE MAKE UP! HELLO!!! YOU'RE FORGETTING THAT ASPECT! DON'T! I still love ya like a sistah, we just had a squabble. YOU'RE NOT GETTING RID OF ME THAT EASILY!!!!!

And another thing, IF YOU NEED HELP, ASK! I'm here for ya, girl! All ya gotta do is ask. I mean, I'm older, so I've more than likely gone through this stuff too. You may beg to differ, but you know it's true.

And finally, I AM SO ALWAYS RIGHT! :P And I do love ya sis, you're not ruining anything. *hugs*

"The Meeting at the Cafe"

Vanessa's alarm on her watch went off, and she began to wake up. She slowly lifted her head off of the laptop's keyboard and looked around the room sleepily. She wiped the bit of drool on the side of her mouth off of her face with her sleeve then looked at the computer's screen.



"Coolio, got all the work done, and in my sleep to!" Vanessa chuckled to herself. She glanced down at her watch then back at the computer. Suddenly, she did a double take and looked down at her watch again.



"OH NO!" She yelled as she jumped out of her chair. she began rushing around her small apartment like a mad woman, brushing her hair, stuffing stuff into her backpack and brushing her teeth for about thirty seconds. She looked at herself in the mirror in the bathroom and sighed. She pulled off her sweatshirt then immediately threw a long-sleeved, blue-jean jacket on.



"You're going out in public, you need to look decent!" She muttered to herself. She grabbed her tennis shoes and shoved them into her backpack and quickly threw on a helmet and some elbow and knee pads. She put on a pair of roller skates, put on a tan trench coat, slung her backpack over her shoulder and grabbed an umbrella then was out the door.



She skated down the hall with all of her things, looking slightly ridiculous. She came to the stairs and put all of her strength into her legs as she jumped onto the railing, avoiding the startled people.



"Vanessa!" The apartment manager yelled, "how many times have I told you not to skate down the stair rail?"



"Sorry, Mr. Gritchin!" Vanessa called as she landed on the ground. Everything that wasn't a room in the apartments was outside, including the hallways and stairs, so when Vanessa landed, she was already outside. She put up her umbrella then skated down the sidewalk to her destination.



When Vanessa reached the cafe, she was relieved to see that none of her friends were there yet. She went inside, still wearing her roller skates, and sat down at a small circular table. She pulled off her skates and replaced them with her tennis shoes. She then took off her pads and helmet and pulled out her laptop. She opened it up and began playing around on it when the door to the cafe opened.

A teenage girl, wearing a long black coat, walked in, carrying an umbrella. She had dark brown hair, almost black, pulled back into a pony tail. She glanced over at Vanessa and smiled, then quickly walked over to the table.

"Hey, Rachel," Vanessa said with a smile. Rachel sat down across from her at the small table and smiled wide.

Hey, V! Have ya seen anything yet?" Rachel finished in a whisper.

"Nope, you're the first person to walk through the door since I got here."

"When did you get here?" Rachel inquired. Vanessa hesitated.

"About three minutes ago..." She replied slowly. Rachel's shoulders fell a bit.

"V, you were supposed to be here early!" She exclaimed.

"I was earlier than you." Vanessa pointed out. Rachel nodded and shrugged her shoulders at the same time. "Besides, I was up all night with this stupid project..." Vanessa's voice drifted off as she looked at the computer screen.

"I would've helped, but you know how good I am at that stuff...not at all..." Rachel said sadly.

"Yeah, well, I got it all done, so no biggie." Vanessa reassured her friend. The door opened again and another girl walked in. She had curly brown hair that went past her shoulders and a navy blue raincoat on. She glanced over at the two girls and waved then walked over.

"Hey, guys!" She said happily.

"Hey, Alex," Rachel said, then gave her friend a small hug.

"Anything?" Alex asked hopefully.

"Just got the project done, that's all." Vanessa replied with a sigh.

"Oh..." Alex said, disappointed.

"Hey, Rachel, do you think you could get me a hot chocolate, please?" Vanessa asked.

"Sure," Rachel got up and walked over to the counter and began ordering. As soon as she was at the counter, the door opened yet again and two teenage boys walked in.

"Dude, I don't see how you CAN'T like it!" One said to the other rather loudly. The other boy looked over at Vanessa and Alex and nodded.

"Yo, Chandler," Rachel called to the boy who was talking. He looked over and smiled.

"Yeah?" He asked as he began walking towards her.

"Help me out here, will ya?" Rachel asked, trying to balance five cups.

"Oh, sure." Chandler took two of the cups from Rachel and helped her carry them over to the table.

"Hey, guys!" Chandler said as he set the cups down.

"Wassup, C.D.?" Vanessa asked. Chandler shrugged then glared at the other boy.

"I say noszing, I hear noszing, I know noszing..." He said with a funny accent. Vanessa chuckled while the others just looked at him like he was crazy.

"Hey, Jasper," Alex said with a smile. Jasper nodded in greeting then glanced around the cafe.

"Vanessa, this is for you," Rachel pushed one of the cups towards Vanessa, "Alex," she repeated the process with Alex, then Chandler, and finally Jasper.

"Thanks, Rae." Vanessa said, taking a sip of her hot chocolate. Chandler and Alex said thank you as well and Jasper nodded.

"You're welcome, guys." She said then nodded at Jasper.

"So, what's going on?" Chandler asked.

"I got the project done, but nothing other than that." Vanessa replied quietly.

"When did the email say to be here?" Alex asked, getting slightly impatient. Vanessa sighed then pulled up her email. The others all leaned closer as she pulled up one labeled "Agent" and began reading it in a whisper.

Agents L, C, D, R, and M,
On the fifth of April, meet at the Charlotta Cafe at 12:00 p.m. Another agent will meet you there between 12 and 1 to give you an important message. Good luck, agents.
D.A.

"So, that's it..." Alex began. "We just, wait?"

"Yeah," Vanessa nodded her head and sat back. "We should spread out, but first..." Vanessa pulled up her backpack from the floor and set it on the table.

"Won't people get suspicious if you give us spy stuff?" Rachel asked, whispering.

"No, because it doesn't look like spy stuff." Vanessa replied, pulling out five pairs of sunglasses. She handed one pair to everyone then put one on herself.

"Sunglasses?" Chandler asked in disbelief.

"Just put them on." Vanessa commanded quietly. Chandler shrugged and put his on obediently.

"Cool!" He said, looking through them.

"Here," Vanessa then handed everyone an earpiece and cellphone.

"Free cellphone, sweet! How many minutes do we have?" Alex asked with a silly smile.

"Ha ha." Vanessa laughed dryly. "Those are actually mini-computers. You can find out a lot with those, and they act as a video screen to communicate with other members of the group." She explained quickly. The others put their earpieces in their ears and stuck their new cellphones in their pockets.

"All right, let's do this thing!" Chandler said as he and Jasper moved to a booth across the room. Rachel and Alex moved to separate tables, and Vanessa stayed put.

"Mii Maker, can you read me?" Vanessa heard Rachel's voice coming through her earpiece.

"Loud and clear," She replied.

"Cool! Can everyone hear us?" Rachel asked.

"Only if you want them to." Vanessa pushed a button on her earpiece and began talking into it again. "Guys, to let everyone into the conversation on your earpiece, push the red button, otherwise you'll just talk to me." She explained. Murmured "Okay"'s came from her earpiece and she switched it back to her and Rachel.

Alex picked up a magazine and began reading it absentmindedly, while Rachel picked up a newspaper.

"Why can't I read Twilight, again?" She asked.

"Because you wouldn't stay focused on anything else!" Vanessa hissed. There was a sigh on the other end and Vanessa rolled her eyes. She glanced over at Chandler and Jasper, who were in a heated discussion about...something she didn't care about. Vanessa looked back at her computer when the sound of the little bell above the door ringing suddenly caught her attention.

A man with a long black trench coat walked in. He had short, spiked black hair that was red on the ends. He walked up to the counter and ordered something in a cup then walked to an empty table and sat down.

"Whoa, what's up with that dude? Is is just me, or are you getting a bad vibe about him?" Rachel asked over the earpiece.

"I don't know, he does look awfully suspicious..." Vanessa replied as she watched him pick up and old newspaper and begin reading it. "Hm, old newspaper..." Vanessa mussed.

"Whoa! Look who just walked in!" Rachel exclaimed. Vanessa slightly turned around to see yet another man walk in. He had on a tan trench coat and a detective's hat on his head and a brown mustache on his face.

"Rae! That's Detective Austin!" Vanessa exclaimed quietly.

"Seriously?!?" Rachel asked in disbelief. Detective Austin glanced around the room and met Vanessa's eyes. He nodded slightly then walked over to Alex. He sat down at the table she was at and discretely slipped her a note. Alex took it then walked over to Vanessa.

"Fall in, guys." Vanessa whispered. The rest of the group walked over to her as Alex handed her the note.

"What does it say?" Chandler asked. Vanessa read it quietly to the others.

Agents,
Congrats on your first official mission. Travel to London to Buckingham Palace, and you will receive further instructions. Good luck, and don't let anyone stop you.
D.A.

"Whoa, London?" Alex asked. "That's kinda far away..." The others gave her a look like "Duh!" When she finished.

"I'll work on tickets," Vanessa began typing on the computer, looking through different travel sites.

"How long is it gonna take?" Chandler asked.

"Not long at all..." Vanessa said absentmindedly.

"Can you give us a certain time? Like, a couple minutes, an hour-"

"Done." Vanessa cut Chandler off and he stared at her.

"How'd you do that so fast?" He asked quietly.

"Simple: Computer Wiz." She replied.

"Okay, we've got two hours until the flight starts. I suggest we go home and pack." Vanessa continued.

"Oka-" Rachel stopped when she saw the guy with red spikes practically jump out of his chair and run out the door. She looked at Alex who nodded. "Do you mind?" Rachel asked Vanessa.

"Go ahead." She replied.

"I'll go get a taxi!" Chandler exclaimed as the two girls dashed out the door. Vanessa chuckled then looked at Jasper.

"So, whaddaya think?" She asked. He shrugged.

"Fun." He replied simply. Vanessa laughed then packed up her computer, then she and Jasper walked outside.

Chandler was already in the taxi when they got outside, and he was motioning for them to jump in. Vanessa slid in next to Chandler, and Jasper got in after her. Vanessa immediately flipped open her computer and began pushing random buttons. Suddenly, an image of the guy with red spikes crawling up a fire escape. The image turned into a choppy video as the person with the camera climbed up after him.

"Rae, what's going on?" Vanessa asked through her earpiece.

"He's running!" Rachel replied.

"No he's not, he's climbing up a fire escape." Vanessa corrected.

"Right-wait, how'd you know?" Rachel asked as she continued climbing.

"I can see him right now." The video image looked around frantically.

"Where are you?" Rachel asked.

"In a taxi no where near you."

"Then how can you see him?"

"Your sunglasses." Vanessa replied simply.

"Ooooh!" Rachel continued climbing and made it to the roof of the building. She ran towards the guy, who promptly jumped off of the building. Rachel ran to the edge as he flew up with a jet-pack on his back.

"Whoa," Rachel said in disbelief.

"Yeah," Vanessa agreed. The guy with red spikes flew away, and Rachel could do nothing but watch.

"Well, that was interesting." Chandler said. He had been watching over Vanessa's shoulder, as had Jasper.

"Whose house are we going to first?" Jasper asked.

"Uh, mine," Vanessa replied slowly. Jasper gave the taxi driver the address and they began moving. Vanessa saved a picture of the jet-pack, which was very interesting in design. She decided that she needed to study it more, and find out more on the guy with red spikes...

Ugh. Blech. :(. Sick face here.

Okay, so we (we meaing my family and I) went to the doctor's on Wednesday. I have been transfered from the pediatric doc, to the big doc. We went in and had the most thorough doctor's visit EVER which was acctually good. Becuase they didn't just say "Oh, you have a tummy ache? Well, here, take this new pill and let's see what it does. Bye bye!" He acctually asked about, like, everything. And it was pretty cool. We have more tests scheduled, but until then, we don't know what's wrong with mii. And, to boot, we're pretty sure that I'm having reacurring ovarian cysts. So I get pills for that too. (They're orange, in case you cared) And, as an even better bonus, last night I woke up at about 4:00 a.m. (so it was really early this morning) and went into the bathroom. I woke up becuase I had a tummy ache...then I threw-up. First I threw-up in the toilet, but the second time was on the floor. Oops. I went back to bed for...I don't know for how long, but I didn't really fall asleep, then I got back up, went back into the bathroom, and puked again. Basically, it was just phlem. (Or however you spell it) I went back to bed...again, but didn't sleep. Instead, I got up once more and...you guessed it, I threw-up again. That was the last time, but I'm not feeling very good today. I had a piece of toast for breakfast, and I feel like I have a cold. COULDN'T I JUST HAVE ONE THING WRONG WITH ME?!? Sorry, just a question I've been asking. Oh well, pain builds character. :P Well, I'm sure this will come in handy one day. Until then, keep praying for me, please. I keep on praying for you.

Sketches

And this is my cousin Hannah.
These are pics of my cousin, Rachel. If it looks like you, Rae, you can pretend it's you if you want. :P

Two sketches of mii, both edited but in different ways.

Who doesn't love Alvin?

I'll have colored versions up later, but I wanted to post the sketches. Rae, if you could try paintshop on 'em, I'd really appreciate it. :) Enjoy! :D
