What an emotional week my mom and I had -personal stuff. D:
Yesterday, the plumber came and installed our new dishwasher, new pipes under the sink, new garbage disposal, and installed the small water line for the refrigerator. The good news is that everything works; the bad news is that we got a leak in the wall, and this was after dad cleaned up the area under the sink. :annoyed2:
On other news, I have almost everything I need for my pirate costume!

Because I'm entering so late, I will use this entry for discussion.
Labor Day: the hottest weekend in southern California. But enough about the heat, I'm happy to bring good news!
Mom and I went out shopping today, and we found a corner desk for our living room -we found the unit at a kid's furniture store, of all places, as we don't have much room. I'm considering getting one for myself, because I have a small room.
We also found purple fabric for a dress I've wanted to make. (By now, we also found some store-bought possibilities, if we can't find someone
This school computer is driving me nuts! But besides that, I got my college ID today.
I also have an announcement for later today (namely, when I get home): stay tuned!

On June 13th, I graduated from Oak Knoll! Out of the forty students in the Class, I knew three of them; one being in the background. At my school, before we receive our diploma, the principal or president of the school board will read a presentation (which each of us already worked on with the principal via interview). Mine was short, because I had been at a
The Autobiography is almost done. I only need to have it proofread, edit, and print it. It's called Quest for a Destiny, and yes, I do have the quote from Vakama in B3:
Tonight, I made this:
It's (one of) my dream avatar for NSB. I've also got two others, but I have yet to use photoshop on it.
Come to think of it, I think I want to add more purple to this current one...
On TOV's Birthday, we went to Macaroni Grill for dinner. Here, I wistfully stared at Prom couples (my school doesn't have prom, so I can't understand it). Two of them were from the Chino Bethel, we could hardly recognize them when they visited our table.
Then, when the waiter
In the past weeks, I went to the go to Church Sunday with the Jobies. For this term, we went to the Covina Christian Church, and the theme was "The Lord is my Shepherd." Before the service started, I told the Choir Director that I was in Choir. She was very excited by the news, and went on and on about it to everyone... I didn't expect that, so I was humbled and embarrassed simultaneously
Then they went to the park to make sno-cones while my family and I went to Simi Valley to see my Great Un

I sent in my entry for the contest today!
The entry was everything I had in mind when I started, but with gel pens as a last minute color decision. I'm especially proud of how Pridak's face came out; murderous, really. Takadox frustrated me, becase his head is so hollow. I now know how a space probe engineer feels when his creation is sent on its mission.
I bagged candy with the Jobies, for a local park's upcoming event. We finished quickly, but we were also so busy
Hurrah #1: Contest Entry!
I finished my comic cover contest entry! I will scan it at school tomarrow before I send it to Lego.
Hurrah #2: Dept 56!
As our collection increased, we have set up a separate alotment of our income for Dept. 56. This means that the collection will NOT impair my ability to attend the Comic-Con.
Hurrah #3: Scholarship!
I have an interview this week for a scholarship! Everyone wish me luck!
Hurrah #4: Band!
Band will start Tomarrow!
Hurrah!

Much better! Anyway I just got back from Grand Assembly for California Rainbow, and there is a lot to tell about this event, so...

I've been meaning to write this for a while: I may not be going to the San Diego Comic-Con this year. It started after 2006 Christmas, when my parents bought candy lights and glitter-covered faux greenery.
Then we had to get a gingerbread house, leading to the other four reasons why I may not go:

3/17 (Sat): St. Patrick's Day? This event was entirely ignored. Dad was gone all day, helping his Troop organize their stuff in the afternoon, and then attending an expensive Scout dinner because a seat opened. Mom and I went shopping, and we came home with a pair of green and blue shoes. That was all the green I wore all day. I also got my graduation announcement pictures, which I will publish with my art after we get a new scanner.

Our internet-connected computer is experiencing technical difficulties, and we may have to crash it next week. I will not be as active on BZP.
HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!

I struggled to get my homework, so I didn't complete much. As a Senior, I felt terrible for that.
But then Mom got home... and the comic was in the mail! But on a meeting night again... Why must I suffer?
Just Kidding. I got to read it because I got ready before Mom was. I loved how the Story page became a two page spread featuring all 6 Barraki! Then of course the page featuring the art. The due date is May, so I have enough time to make an e
I have too much energy.
This is mostly because I'm not Worthy Advisor anymore. Even before I became that station, I was always busy doing something other than homework. I planned three Installations, fundraisers, learned about half of the Rainbow Ritual... So I needed more energy. But now I'm not WA anymore and it's technically too early to be planning anything for my Honored Queen term, so what's a girl to do?
The good news is, when the scanner gets fixed (or if the neighbors let me use t
The Playstation is back in action! I have played the the first three levels of BH.
The game has thrown storyline out the window; but the older a fan you are, the more it's like a high school reunion. If you're a younger fan, you have an excellent chance to be introduced to the characters from the past. That's one of my favorite aspects of the game.
The other is the humor. I wrote something about that it my paper journal, so I'll quote that... when I find it.
TOV also started playing the
Tip For Life #1: Always pack your backback the night before you go to school. I didn't heed this suggestion, and I forgot to do high-priority items this morning.
As I turned in completed work, I learned that I now have two projects for Macbeth: "Read aloud to your teacher some of the pasages in the play which seem most significant to you. "Design three costumes appropriate for either the hero or heroine of this video. Indicate the scenes in which the costumes would be worn." What they mean by
Hello, I am Gali Nuva Girl. I would like to welcome everyone who reads this blog. Here I will chronicle my crazy life. I have been writing in journals since second grade, and I will continue writing on paper for those topics that may not be appropiate for the forums. Right now, it's late at night, but later I will write a novel about recent adventures!

My specialist's office called and told me that I do not have an infection. I'm not sick, this is part of a life long medical issue. I was going to note it in my journal, but it has vanished! I'm not worried, it'll turn up eventually.
Anyway, the Christmas season is arriving! Here, it isn't heralded by 90% off sales at the mall or the fact that Thanksgiving is over.
The Pointsettias are here.
