Sigh!
I'm really kind of bored right now. I'm just drawing and listening to a CD my Bf gave me before he left, and typing this of course. Here's a quik rundown of my day. I woke up at 7:30 and I felt really sick. Then I woke up at around 9:30 and felt really sick again, but I'm better now. My brother and mom went to get their hair cut. I'm upset at myself because I've been slacking on my typing and everything I do (or don't do) lately. I'm not putting my 100% in anything lately, which is weird since I'm usually a perfectionist. It really doesn't show on the site does it? I'm thinking about going outside and drawing later.
Anyway, enough of my pity party. I would like to offer an apology to a lot of my friends. I haven't really felt like visiting. I've only been to about two sites, plus whoever happens to sign my GB. Anyway, sorry about that.
Many of you may remember the article on the youth being stolen from the Gundam pilots, and the story's similarities to the book titled "Ender's Game". I was fortunate enough that our library happened to have the book, so I checked it out yesterday. After finishing it this morning, I would like to encourage you to read it. Here is my small summary and review. (No big spoilers):
The story is set in the future, when parents are limited to two children per family, because of overpopulation. Ender, a third child, authorized by the government, is born and monitered till he is eight (I think that's right. I don't have the book with me for details.). Then he is taken to be taught how to command fleets of space ships to destroy the enemy, the buggers. They are trained using a game and simulaters.
This is as much as I can tell you because anything more spoilers the story, in my opinion. To read the article in a new window, pleaseclick here. I warn you though, there are a lot of spoilers for "Ender's Game" if you plan on reading it.
Word of the Day:
Love- noun An intense affection for another person.
Hmm... isn't hate an intense affection for another person, too? Anyway, I like Webster's complete definition better. This one came from Webster's notebook dictionary, so it's the condensed version. Sometimes I get the definitions from here, sometimes from the normal Webster's. BTW, Webster was my very fist band nickname, but most people called me cat because of my catears. I starying from the point, aren't are?
Element of the Day:

I was asked why I had so much space between the comment link and my post a long time ago, and now I am getting to the point. Since I have scrolling posts, I have to have a set amount of space. Sometimes I have little reminders that I forget to put in my regular post, so I just add it instead of editing. It's much easier for me. I hope that ansers your question Kilwoon. ^_^
Good bye and God bless.
