Aah, summer life. We all know what it's supposed to be like-brightly colored fruit smoothies with crepe umbrellas in them, the smell of chlorine in your hair, the stinging sensation one gets from mowing the lawn in your shorts. Needless to say, those aren't exactly the summer joys I've had the opportunity to relish. Like all people around my age-between arranging practices, taking part in the job hunt, doing a bit of teaching to pick up extra cash, deciding to give this driving thing a shot, and playing psychiatrist to many friends-I've realized that I'm growing up. Or maturing. Or maybe I'm just missing all those simple summer days I had as a ten year old. Whatever the reason, I have been horribly busy. ((Though don't kid yourself, I'm enjoying my summer immensly.))

There seems to be a lot of literature around that I would enjoy reading and can't seem to locate. Angels and Demons, The Awakening, Lord of the Flies and Apollyon are at the top of my list, and I can't find them at the library at all. Not to mention my need for gaming. There are final fantasies I desperatly want (TACTICS!!!), platformers that are out of my price range, and RPGs that slip just out of my grasp. I am so nerdy it frightens me.

I've taken up an interest in photography, a hobby which I'll sadly never be able to fund/progress in. Experimenting with photoshop has also been taking up a lot of my time. My very generous friend let me attempt coloring some of her lineart, and now I'm addicted to coloring in general (if only I had drawing skill!) Not only is the afore mentioned ST taking a crack at a webcomic, , has also decided she'd like to do likewise. You can find some strips on both of their pages.

As this has been an exceptionally long journal entry with almost no point, I'm going to end it in this paragraph. Please visit my friends' pages (their artwork kicks my arse) and oggle without drooling, thanks! ~Caroline
