I did mention that I do draw.
Here's a quick, 15-minute sketch and color drawing on PS.
I got lazy at the end with the shading.
Oh, haha, in case anyone was curious.
That is supposed to be CL from the Korean girl band, 2NE1...
Admittedly, I am a huge fan. -_-;;

It's finally here~
Ahhhh...
I kept reminding myself to update this monstrosity I've decided to take under my horribly ungroomed wing... buuuut.....
Between cram school, studying and packing for my short term mission starting tomorrow, I've been running around hardly getting much sleep. I'm also taking free time to pull my hair over the fact that my school schedule has NOT come in the mail ... while all my friends have received theirs~
Oh well. I guess I'll check it out after I get home.
Well, this short term mission I'm going on is organized by Youth and Family Focus.
I'm super nervous because I've never gone on a mission that wasn't with my own church... or with my own youth group members... OTL
I guess I'll have to overcome my ridiculous inability to meet new people at some point in my life.
Anyway, it goes from Sunday (tomorrow, kiddies) until Saturday of next week. It'll be a week full of living in a tent, no electricity, no proper toilet (hole in the ground. hurrah), doing back-breaking labor aaaaanddd...
I may possible have to strangle mother nature if she drops a little present by while I'm there.
Those of you (if there are any) will wonder:
WHY WOULD ANYBODY DO THIS TO THEMSELF?!

My answer: TuT
I guess my yearly adventures to get myself eaten by mosquitoes and sleep in uncomfortable places isn't strictly masochistic. [Last year was Costa Rica. I still have scars from mosquito bites that just won't go away.]
I feel like every time I come home from these places, I learn new things and become a (hopefully) better person.
Ummm... it completely has nothing to do with the fact that this looks FAAAABULOUS on college applications. (But shhh~)
Actually, it really doesn't, but I'm not complaining if it helps me.
Anyway, I got back from the orientation yesterday and there were a lot of kids in the group going too. Some were people who had gone before, but many, like me, had no idea what was going on. Apparently we spend some time at a nursing home, talk to inmates in jail and build homes (at Habitat... which I thought closed because it didn't have enough money.... umm.... what?!), and fight off hoards of mosquitoes in the process....
I can't decide whether to be excited or nottt~
And out of the 11 groups, there are only 3 groups of girls.
Roughly 18 of us.
Versus
Roughly 50 boys....
OH wellll~ more time for bonding between the girls... I hope.
Oh yes.
This whole "Color the Soul" thing.
Yes, you may say "wtf is this?!"
The whole idea of "coloring the soul" is that I'm going to honestly say what happens in my slightly abnormal and strange life.
No lies.
No exaggerations.
The truth.
And I may post some short stories or art if I get the urge :3
As I still have to pack for my journey into the unknown, I will end my blabbering here and wish the world a wonderful week while I live in virtual isolation.
I pray that I will not forget the bugsprayyy T_T
Au revoir!

Welcome to the craziness!
I doubt that anyone will ever be reading this. Nonetheless, this is an aspiring writer's little space to express her insane life.
I am 15, turning 16 in just about one month.
With SAT prep, AP classes and high school drama, I sometimes find it hard to sit down and just... write (or draw if I'm in the mood).
Forgive the occasional whining and nonsensical babbling.
I have an excuse:
I'm learning to add color to the human soul.
So this will be my place to never have to hold back and simply write about ... things in general, I guess~
Today's mood: Tired
