So I just wanted to talk quickly about a few things.

1) AX was amazing! I got Vic Mignogna's autograph and a picture with him! Whoo! He is such a cool guy! I also bought some art from a few people, and completely enjoyed myself being surrounded by nerds like me! Oh! And I saw the Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann movie and went to a panel where we were introduced to the creators of Gurren Lagann! We're talking the artist, the director, even the PR guy lol. It was so adorable seeing them talking in Japanese and having to wait for their translators. ^_^ Ah yeah, such good memories.

2) School is out! Summertime! I got all A's, too! Whoo! So yeah, job search time now QQ. But it's been nice visiting with my family and friends back home.

3) I finished watching Avatar: the Last Airbender! OMG IT'S AMAZING! x3 If you haven't seen it yet, GO AND WATCH IT because it is intelligent, hilarious, adorable, amazing, endearing, and such win. I shall even venture to describe it as "epic". And that's a big deal.

4) Drunk people are retarded. They are the cause of so much pain. A drunk bicyclist was the cause of my sister totaling her car in an accident on the 4th of July. People, getting drunk and riding your bike in the middle of a highway heading toward traffic IS NOT A GOOD IDEA. And for your information, you still can get a DUI on a bike! Thankfully, no one was hurt, though, but that jerk took off and left the bill to my sister. The car was a goner. Let this be a warning to drinkers: if you get hammered, STAY HOME, YOU JERKS.

I guess that's all I wanted to say. Not much else is new. Hopefully I will be able to draw and post more and practice!
