  • Wanna know what's cool? I'm getting tons of cool e-mails from all these people in the visual arts section with freshman academy. Lots of neat peoples. I've been told that normally you become friends with the people on your floor (or ward) as opposed to the people in your classes, but I'm not so sure that will be the same with me in the art program. Especially since I'm in FA which means that the same freshman will be in all of my classes. Maybe that means I'll have two circles of friends- a ward circle and an art circle. Hmmm. Kinda like how at Stevenson I had a couple different groups of friends that didn't really mix, though there was some overlap. Anyway. I should stop thinking so much and be patient and experience it as it happens- in 6 days!

    I discovered that sitemeter has cool graphs about visit history. I am much ammused. Here is This Year's Visits and Page Views by Month:

    Cool, huh? February is when I took that break from xanga. I also went to some September entries to see what might be different (to explain the difference in number of visitors from then and now). My September entries are just like my now entries. Slightly more soapboxy. August of last year though. Man was I in an awkward stage. Lol. No seriously, last summer I was nuts. It's funny how you can change so quickly.

  • I remember freshmen academy. Hmm...there were a lot of people in my ward who where in my classes. I think that's how they set it up.

  • I am in college, in my room, at Ringling, and that is why I win, hahaha.

  • Your college wasn't destroyed by a hurricane then? yAy! hehe jk

  • Hey Dan. Thanks for the compliment.  Though now you've got me all sorts of curious.  Who?

  • Hello!!! I'm so glad someone else had a Xanga site too! So anyway! I'd never really thought about your church/art comment...but now you've got me thinking about it and I'm thinking of the same things you were...we'll discuss it in detail once we get to the Y!

    Holy cow...your artwork is AMAZING!! I mean, watch out Greg Olsen!!! I can't wait to see it in person!! I can't think of anything else to say about it it's so awesome....I'm speechless!! :)

    I actually leave this Saturday (like 36 hours!! yay!!) and I can hardly wait those hours! It's a good thing I still have a lot of packing to do to fill my time!

    Okay this is plenty long enough so I'll leave it with that, but I'm looking forward to meeting you! We'll all have a blast!!! Are you going to NSO? Where are you living? See ya! :)

  • I'm getting frustrated with this guy who is completely arrogant about religion.

    He keeps missing the target when I tell him things. Like, he can't comprehend anything.

    Anyway, I know you've been through the same thing, so should I just stop answering questions when all he does is try and come up with more?

    I don't mind answering questions. But it's as if he ignores my explanations. SIGH.

    I'm glad you're excited about art school. I want to be a film writer, and novelist, so I'm guessing I'll have several different crowds when I'm off to school next year.

    I wish you the best of luck.

  • whoa- that history thing is really cool!  I had to mention I love the song "Homesick at Space Camp" by Falloutboy too!
