Hiatus period... sorta

Omigod it's been so long since I last got on. I'm so so sorry!

For anyone wondering, no my Yosemite trip didn't last for two weeks. It only lasted a weekend but I think I'll do a separate post for later cause I won't have much time on here.

So basically my mom's computer kinda died for the moment. It's trying to fix itself with ye old Windows technology and it's not working at all. My mom took it to BestBuy yesterday but it was gonna cost a decent load of money to fix and get a program to keep it from going crappy for like 200 bucks a year which to be honest we'd end up buying a new computer.

Luckily my uncle who's gonna be coming over in about two weeks is a computer geek extraordinaire and could fix her computer in like five seconds for free. Now sadly cause he can't come over any sooner we're gonna be left without Internet access excluding my mom cause she has a Blackberry.

So again I'm really sorry for the lack of updates and if anyone was expecting pictures of Yosemite but I promise to type up a post of the trip and some photos.

As for my life right now my only Internet access is at the library for an hour each session. Along with that I've also been reading, writing, drawing and playing Super Smash Bros. Melee. So with my session ending in fifteen minutes don't expect a lot of posts from me for a while.

XOXO,

Lazy Summer Days

So obviously my days have been as uneventful as they could be. Just sitting in the house playing Super Smash Brothers Melee hoping to unlock Mewtwo. And by the way if anyone can help me with that task that doesn't involve leaving the Gamecube on all night (Cause I will get caught and possibly in trouble), leave a comment below for some help. Not that I mind too much being inside cause we got a nice little heatwave right now. It's one of the few things I don't like about summer: extreme heat. Luckily with California weather there's no humidity in the summer cause it's the dry season. So thank God it isn't smoldering hot.

Finished reading Animal Farm today. My work with that book isn't over yet though. I still have to look for seven quotes for my assignment. Won't be too much trouble since someone had the book before me and pencil marked some quotes. Hahahaha. I probably would've used those quotes anyway. It was a pretty good book summing up the Soviet Union.

Going to Yosemite in a few days. Going to store tomorrow to get myself a new camera chip. Gonna be so happy to take tons of pics! Only downside about going to Yosemite is... Well let's just say Mother Nature isn't nice to me sometimes... Yeah

Anyway, so I'll be gone for a few days and be back with possibly tons of pictures to show!

XOXO,

P.S. Yo momma's so hairy the only language she speaks is Wookie!

So much foooood

So today was my step dad's birthday party. Had a ton of friends over which also included five fluffy dogs. My mom outdid herself again making great lasagna and getting an ice cream cake from Baskin Robbins and all sorts of other side dishes. T'was a pretty good time.

So as usual, nothing's going on. At least until this weekend. That's when me and my family go to Yosemite for the weekend. I just remembered I need to get a new camera chip for this trip since the one I have temporarily only holds seventy pictures. I hear it's nice in the summer so a new camera chip's in order.

Started on my summer assignment a few days ago, going to the library and gettingAnimal Farm. I already know what happens since I saw the 1991 film in the seventh grade when we were talking about the Soviet Union, but it's obviously better to read the book. And I also need quotes for what I need to do so it's not like I can just pull stuff out of my butt and expect an A. Still got a couple months so no pressure.

I seriously need stuff to do that doesn't involve me being alone all day playing Super Smash Brothers Melee. That is unless I have some friends over to play with. Probably should do some of the library stuff for the teen summer reading program and meet some people. Well anyway I'll definently think of something.

XOXO,

I am going to lose my mind

Why you may ask? Summer assignments....

So for my sophomore year I signed up for Spanish 3 Honors and Advanced English 10. Both of those have summer assignments. Spanish 3 is no biggie cause I just have to memorize nine different grammatical tenses and their endings... Okay now that I look at it, it sounds like a lot of work. But not as much as Advanced English.

For Advanced English I have to read these three books:

1.Animal Farm by George Orwell
2.1984 by George Orwell
3.Anthem by Ayn Rand

And then I have to write seven log entries for each book, annotate the seven quotes I've chosen for each book, and then for my favorite book of the three I have to find, read, and write a one-page reflection for two current news articles related to the book.

This is me when I found out I have so much work and only two months to do it.


And this is me afterwards.

This isn't going to end well...

Well my first order of action: Get my little brunette butt to the library ASAP.

Adiós amigos!

XOXO,
Liz

Artist at work

I've finally stopped being lazy and have gotten around to showing some artwork on here. Leave nice comments and constructive criticism please. Any mean comments will be ignored and deleted. Enjoy!

BANZAI!

School is finally out for the summer!!

After a long stressful week of final exams, it's worth it when I get to hang out after school signing yearbooks screaming "Banzai!" So glad my first year of high school's finally over.

Kinda sad though that my Japanese exchange friend, Akane, has to leave over the summer back to Japan. She was my first friend and if I didn't meet her I wouldn't have met any of my anime obsessed friends I have now. I'm gonna miss her a lot.

So that was my week. Finals, finals, and more finals, and then of course signing yearbooks and random scraps of paper. That was my last day of school. As eventful as it's gonna get.

Came home after being bored for a while and began watching anime and still going. Mushi-Shi and D. Gray-man all the way.

As for starting up my summer I don't really have too much planned. Gonna go to a friend's house next week for a party aaaand that's about it. Desperately need something to do other than watching anime on Netflix. Sigh.. Will think of something eventually.

XOXO,
Liz
