My phone has been a bit jerky lately. The main problem is that the pictures I take with it... don't want to actually stay taken. Just a bit later, I go to my gallery to find black squares instead. *blank face of rage* So you can imagine it was a bit harder to get them on here before they disappeared. APPRECIATE ALL THAT TIME AND EFFORT I TOOK TO SHOW THIS STUFF *Titan Eren rawr*
I forgot to put last time that my mom found a small pile of old schoolwork and asked me to look through it for stuff I want/need to keep. It was stuff from 8th and 9th grade. I found a few drawings I'd done in my drawing class those few weeks we were going to school in Mexico! This was something I had to do for English (if you think being Mexican and taking Spanish in an American school is a drag, just imagine how much worse it was taking English in a Mexican school). I remember even being confused that day why I was drawing like this, because it's different from how I usually draw, but it's cute, right? I'm ticked that the teacher decided to just drag her pen (to check it off) all over my beautiful work! *tick mark*
We had kind of an elective thing for one class, so I went into a drawing class. While we usually just drew whatever we wanted (the first drawing was because I had "Viva La Vida" by Coldplay in my head), there was one day where the teacher was helping us draw realistically (thus the pics of my hand below). I don't think I did that bad, although I'd rather not draw like that often. Also, the Spongebob and Tigger below I had copied from something else. Once again showing my copying skills. *boss face* And the Chinese dragon... I'd wanted to do that, but didn't really have any references I could use at the moment, if I remember correctly. It's pretty close considering, right?
^(I forgot that a few of these were actually double-sided, so I took this pic the day after all the other ones, thus the lighting is different and it looks more dramatic. I love my phone's camera sometimes. *pleased look*)
I also looked through a notebook for Geography last year... and found this little beauty in the header of one of the pages. I remember drawing it. I'd somehow had "Baby Got Back" stuck in my head that morning.
As I mentioned before, my phone's camera has been wonky lately. I had a pic to put here, but then the picture didn't work anymore. But you guys know how I love doodling Al's blood seal? (I particularly have done that more during math, for some reason.) Guess what I found in my Geometry textbook?
*waits for answer*
BASICALLY AL'S BLOOD SEAL DESIGN! *swoon* Isn't that so cool?! It was a freaking math problem! (We're on chords and angles inside of circles- that specific day, inscribed angles.)
I started thinking how stuff like alchemy would make a better "real life problem" for textbooks than a lot of the sad chiz they actually put. So this is what I drew on my paper the next day... *innocent look*
The second is just me drawing the blood seal star twice in the same circle, then doing the little curly thing in the middle small. It looks cool, right?
I've told a few people I'm friends with Blondie, and they usually are like "...Oh." I guess she's not as nice to other people? Is a bit judgemental? This sucks because I know she has her moments, but everyone does! And she's generally a very nice, generous, awesome person! I'm still gonna be friends with her, of course, because I think she's my only best friend here. But I kinda wanna know... Why no one liek Blondie?
I failed to mention earlier too (I should stop doing that) that during the wedding, one of my sister's friends was getting baptized, and she got to go there! They also Skyped with Niisan for a while! And after the wedding, the day after, the whole family got baptized, and this morning in Sacrament they all received the Holy Ghost. It's great seeing how the gospel brings families together and gives 'em happies.
I'm chatting with Scaehime, so I'll just go quick.
So, last Friday, my mom was teaching a zapatio dance to a few adults in our branch while I taught their daughters a bit of the Tahitian dance. I wonder how much they'll remember. And I wonder if I was actually a good teacher or not. *sweat drop*
There's some sisters in our branch that work at a bakery. Their job uses a lot of their time, so they don't really get to be with their kids, and thus their kids are a bit, um... Super annoying at church. My seminary teacher suggested to us to think of a skill we'd like to work on- maybe something that we can use for service in the future. I thought about how I seem to have a small amount of talent for baking (or, at least, more than for cooking). I thought that maybe, maybe...
Sometime before we move, I could come help the sisters out at the bakery, and so one or two can take a break for a few hours and spend time with their kids!
I probably won't have the time to do that, but I think it's a sweet (hehe, punny) idea. I'd learn, and they'd give their children at least some of the time they deserve.
OKAY I'M DONE NOW BAI
