YEAH BABY. ITS GREAT TO BE BACK!

I got back Wednesday night.

Okay, Im SO not telling everything that happened there because 1) that would make an extremely long journal. 2) Things that happen in London, stay in London and shouldn't be told online to hundreds of watchers that see this journal. But I'll probably end up telling you anyway. XD

Viewer discretion is advised?

Anyway, the trip over all was fantastic. It had its ups and downs and bumps along the way but being my first trip over seas I think it went pretty well. A great experience and just what I needed to get out of my little "groove" I was in.

My cat just totally sneezed on my computer. Gross.

However, things there were very very very different for me. Everything. Is. Backwards. Nothing made sense to me. Signs are so wordy. The food is different (much less salty, and sugary). I went though culture shock for a long while, just because I missed home after a few days and I wasn't used to my surroundings yet. Though seeing butt naked, drunk Irish men in the bathroom didn't help my anxiety at all about being so far away from home. (I'm not explaining that, if you already know the story behind it, it means your a close friend and have been blessed with my terrifying experience. XD)

Anyway. Im totally jet lagged and have been talking funny (because Im tired, and British accents are easy to pick up.)So Im gonna be boring and keep the pictures to myself, because Im a biznatch, and I have to unpack and clean up the house a little. My family are pigs and made a mess of everything while I was away. Nice huh?

and they blame ME for making the mess.
I don't think so. lol


I drew SOME things in England, mostly just inked because I couldn't bring any colored pens so I wasn't able to color ANYTHINGGGG.

Also, the weather cooled down in Washington while I was away.
I missed the 100 degree weather streak in Seattle. YES. XD

Im hungry now, so I'm gonna go look for amazing American food. Yum yum yum.

Bye

So my dad bought a new toy. XD



He got a pellet gun. I hate guns. I really do.

But he has been looking for something for forever, and finally got one. And hes like a little kid in a candy store, its funny XD

Anyway.

I leave in 6 days.

Pretty much tonight is my last totally free day to do anything I want. Except my friends and I are getting together for a little 'goodbye party' type of thing at the city pool, and then going to a diner at midnight to eat all you can eat pancakes for $3 XD
(if you wanna join me close friends, by all means come along. No creeper internet stalkers plz. Thanx)

Friday, I'm doing some last minuet things before the family reunion in eastern Washington.
It finally gets cooler in Seattle, just as I have to go over the mountains to be in the fcking desert for a day. Swimming in 100 degree weather? I think I'd just be screaming "PLZ GIVE ME A SUNBURN" before I left the country. XD

Saturday I leave for the family reunion, Sunday my aunt is coming over to help me officially start packing my bags (because I'm terrible at packing for long long trips like this.) Monday night I go to my cousin's to spend the night at her house with my little sister, and another cousin of ours (her DA name escapes me. XD) Later on Tuesday I'm most likely getting my bags approved by my girl scout leader to make sure everything fit requirements. Wednesday morning, I leave for England with and our two adult leaders. ;3

By the way, thanks for all the music ideas guys :3 I added a whoooooooole bunch. This is pretty much my last journal before I leave, maybe I'll post something before I go, I'll have computer access in England, I might post something funny that happened, but eh... I dunno. XD

I hope to draw lots and lots of stuff to have things to post when I come back. AND GET MY SCANNER WORKING. >:l

Senior year starts practically a 2 weeks after I get back... This summer is flying by, fail.

Okay~ Catch chu gais on the flip side, yo~

It's true. :3



So I've been putting new tunes on my Ipod in preparation of 10+ hours I'll be flying in less than 2 weeks now lD

I've added nearly 250 new songs, and still adding more :3

Hooray for finding old CD's I forgot I had filled with my favorite music XD

But, however. I wanna add even MORE music. I need plentyyyyy.
So, I am asking if anyone has any artist/song suggestions to add.
Name as many as you can, it would be most appreciated ;3

I like most genre, remember. I like rock, some rap, R & B, J-rock/pop, classical, alternative, indie, opera, the list goes on.

So pretty much I've been packing.

Packing.


and more packing.

I've been buying supplies for the big trip in 17 days lD;

Can you believe I'll be in England in 17-18 days? I sure can't. I've never been out of the states before so it's kind of a nerve wracking feeling leaving good 'ol Seattle, the city I know and love XD;

Not to mention that scary long plane ride... I hate planes. So much. So I'm going to keep complaining about them. Mwahah.

I also got an email from who's been in Japan for about the last week.
I miss her... she was my late night boredom buddy PLZ COME BACK SOON, HOLLY MISSES YOU ;~;

Anyway, so I've slooooowly been coming out of my art rut. Been doodling with my tablet, which I'm extremely rusty at, all my lines are SO sketchy lD;
But for your previewing pleasure, I shall share this epic failure.
[link]

Hopefully I can draw my heart out when I'm in London, do some artsy stuff like drawing gestures, maybe some comics on that scary long plane ride...


I also got my hair cut so its easier to manage over seas, uses less shampoo because I got a good 4 inches off of it lD;
Sooo much shorter, I love it <3

Anyway, I need to get ready for a girl scout meeting and have some things straightened out, most likely I'll post another journal the day before I leave, because chances are I'm not going to be able to sleep the night before I go XD; I have to be at the leaders house at 4:30 in the morning anyway.... YAY FOR SLEEPLESS NIGHTS!
Okay bye XD

BTW. CINEMA BIZARRE TOYZ ALBUM COMES OUT IN AUGUST. IM SO EXCITED. BAWAHAHSDIFNSID

I wish I could go to Germany and get it.
See them in concert.
Get it signed.
I think I'd die a happy happy fangirl.
<3 :3

Btw, person who catches my 18,000th's PV I'll... doodle something for XD
Not into a huge gift picture because I'll never finish it lD;
