I'm not dead! Really!
Yes, yes, I know: "Holy crap, she decided to update!!!! XXXXD" Actually, I have a reasonable explanation! My computer had a virus...and it sucked. I went Internet-less almost this whole weekend! I was gonna post on Thursday, but just as I was about to check on everyones sites, a little window popped up saying my computer had some form of the Trojan virus. Luckily, my uncle told my dad how to get rid of it, and my dear father fixed it up for me! Yays! *huggles Daddy*

Okay, now for what I was going to post on Thursday. Kay-kay, Yumi, Justin H., Jodi, Chance, and myself all went to an art conference in Ida Grove. First we went to the school to learn tutorials about pottery, painting, and glass bead-making. They were quite informative! After that we went to Pizza Hut, and ate from the buffet. What I loved about where we went, was that the resturaunt was basically built on a dock in the middle of a small lake. After we had paid and eaten, anything left over, we fed the ducks, geese, swans, and various fish living in the pond/lake. There was this one swan that had a dirty head that I fell in love with, and wanted to smuggle it home with me, cuz he was so cool! He caught the pieces of crust I threw to him in mid-air! After that, we drove over to the Skate Palace for the conference itself, which, in case you're wondering, is basically an art show. ^^ They had tables and little walls all set up in the middle of the skating area where most of the art was displayed. Kay-kay, Yumi, and I each had about five pieces total that were there. I only won two white ribbons, but I'm still proud of myself! One was for my surrealism (which is too big to scan, so I'll have to take a picture...), and the other was for my stained-glass dragon I made. Kayla won a few whites and I think one or two reds...I can't remember that well...and Yumi got some whites too. Remember that girl I was talking about it a way past post named Kitty? She go a blue ribbon and a medal for a clay slab/puff box she turned into a dragon! That is one of the highest awards you could win, too. I'm very proud of her myself. ^^

...Yeah...very interesting, ne? For "spring break", if you can call a four day weekend that, I didn't really do much of anything...though last night (Sunday), my brother and I escorted two dogs back home that live about a half a mile away. You could say I got my exercise...and the cows looked like they wanted to eat my brains or somethin...though there was a really cool looking one that was black with a white face, and I looked like somebody threw a blob of black paint at her eye...Okay, so I lied about the whole "I didn't do anything," thing: I played Super Smash Bros. Melee. My younger brother and I finally got all of the unlockable characters, and my favorite out of them all has to be Mewtwo...just cuz he's that spiffy and awesome! Well...I think this is good enough for now...hopefully I'll post sometime in a few days...you never know with me...
