*Added a quiz. 'Cos I'm cool like that.

Sorry about that link, everyone, I just fixed it! It took a while because I was busy this weekend, so, sorry for the wait, too! XP

Also, about sketches for people, -another- sorry (I'm pathetic, I know!) for how long you're waiting! I've been in a bit of a slump recently, and not much I've been drawing is coming out right. :/ They're coming, I promise. I never guaranteed I'd be fast, right?

But, I guess I should say some happy stuff, eh?
Well, last Thursday my sister and I got to hang out with ...we went to the mall for a few hours, then caught the bus to me & my sis's house, and hung out here. I have to say, it was really nice to be able to visit with someone here that's my age! (The only human contact I've had this summer aside from my family is mum and Mike's friends, who are all adults, and one friend's birthday party. That's it. 0_o)
She wrote about it in her journal, too. But I'm so late because I've been busy this weekend.
I've been listening to records today...they're pretty awesome. I played my Adam Ant records (Of course!) and went thru Mike and mum's records, and found some gems...it appears that my mum was (well...she still is!) into Duran Duran! She has like 5 of their records! She also likes stuff like Olivia Newton John, Grease, Flashdance, Footloose...regular 80's teenage girl stuff! Mike has plenty of cool records, too. Lots of reggae, and classics like The Rolling Stones, U2, David Bowie, Michael Jackson, Elvis....and tons more!
It's easy to tell that I am currently in record-heaven. All I need is more Adam Ant records...particularly Prince Charming, Friend or Foe, Strip, Manners & Physique, and Wonderful...hehehe...

Anyways, that's it for now. I'll try to work on those sketches as much as possible...again, I'm really sorry I've taken so long...they're coming!

-ciao!
