I show pictures taken yesterday at the Gold Key Award Art Gallery




Picture #1: Me and My friend Indigo at the art gallery. Unfortunately, her amazing piece of art is not shown in this pic.

Picture #2: A lose-up of a bike wheel this guy had parked outside a neighboring coffee shop.

Picture #3: Sculpture standing against foggy glass window. Nice backlight, don't you think?

I rejoice because it is Friday, and because Stanford testing is officially OVER!


Happy Friday Everyone! Being the most special day that it is, I couldn't help but make a new post. Here are some of the interesting things that are going on in my life:
  • Stanford testing is over!
  • I'm accually updating my blog
  • Tonight at 7:00 I'm going to my first group piano "lesson", where someone comes and gives feedback on our pieces.
  • It's Friday!
  • Tomorrow is RealFilms (A documentary screening my parent's non-profit organization does every other month at the Aurora Picture Show. I'm in charge of serving popcorn!)
  • Oh. Also for dinner we're having sausage, green beans, and salad w/ homemade dressing. Yum!
  • And thats about it...
There. You finally got a little peek into my every day life.

Above is a nice picture to look at, and below are some interesting links:



UPDATE: Before I could finish my post, I had to go to the piano event that I was talking about. Everything went well, and there was a nice woman to give out tips after everyone's piece. It was a lot of fun, and the even had chocolate covered pretzels!

Thanx and Goodnight again

Randomness



Hello Everyone. I know this is my first post in a long time, so I'll make it count. As you can see, I changed the template. The old one was too...brown. Anyway, as this title suggests, I am writing about randomness! Check out the pictures above, and these links:

This is a little something that all of you should look at. Don't you ever want to wake up early? I find sleeping in a waste of time. (Just my opinion; do whatever you want) ;)

Btw, the link above doesn't work for Verison! I found some others, but they haven't been as good.

This is an awesome little game! It also helps to get creativity flowing. Type in encouraging words to make the flower bloom. Ok, ok it may sound corny coming from me, but seriously. Try it!

Well, that's pretty much it. Please comment!Oh! also, check out my new poll and blog roll (if i get it up tonight)

Thanks and Goodnight
