It's been a while.
But my mom's laptop is here, the other three human members of my family are out, and frankly, I NEED to update this thing.

I got a letter from an art college in Detroit today - College for Creative Studies, or CCS.
The opening statement caught my attention.

College is more than hard work. It's lifelong friendships, little sleep, Ramen Noodles, roommates, cafeteria food, and the best four years of your life.

1/3 of the second sentence in a letter from a college is about food?
There must be a catch - that's simply far too good to be true. xD


... I updated my dA some the other night. I felt quite accomplished, haha


I also got my teeth cleaned today. They're all white and sparkly and yay. :D


Last Saturday marked one month for Jeremy and me... I juss so happeeee. :]
He invited me over on Friday for a second Thanksgiving. (His cousin can't make it Thursday)
... I kinda wanna go. And that makes me a just liiiittle bit nervous coz I have no great love for ONE Thanksgiving a year.
Don't get me wrong - it's a fun holiday, and I do like having an excuse to pig out to my heart's content.
It's just such a physically taxing holiday...

Buuuuuuut I don't even know if I would be allowed to go.
My mom says I'm grounded, but I don't think my dad backs her up on it. I'm very confused. :P


I think I'm gonna go update my dA some more and then attack my Tumblr and Twitter.
I love my Interwebs. *huggles*
