Wow, I haven't posted on this thing in about two years. I would feel bad, but I've never really put that much importance on this sort of thing. In fact, the only reason I actually posted in this thing today or even remembered that I actually HAVE a blog, is because my good friend and adopted brother, Jason, got one. The way I see it is if I had something really important to tell the world about, I would put it in my journal on deviantart, which is almost as good. This amuses me, because I had such great plans for this blog when I started out. And now look where I am - only posting because I'm bored.
Anyhoo, as you can probably guess, a LOT has happened in the last two years. For example, you remember Patrick O'Neil from a few posts back? Well we're dating now. Although I'm not sure I would call it "dating" exactly, considering that we live three hours apart, but we consider each other boyfriend and girlfriend now. And when you consider the fact that I've been waiting for this since I was twelve years old, you can probably imagine my excitement on this fact. Yep, it feels good to be loved!
Now that I'm sixteen, my parents have been *ahem* encouraging me to consider college options. I'm not even sure if I want to go to college any more, although I did find an online manga class called mangauniversity.com that looks interesting. I bought their cookbook, and it's wonderful. And yes, I have decided to go for the manga-ka position. This has been frowned upon by Jason, and he continues to *ahem* encourage me to find a nice college to go to. I have nothing against getting a second job to make ends meet, but he seems to want me to become a doctor or an attorney and have manga as a side. No way Hosea I say! My art has improved since I first started drawing, and you can see it at http://daamazingmeepers.deviantart.com/ if you're interested. However, be warned, it's mostly fanart.^^;
My library has started holding weekly teen meetings in which I am the vice-president, and we plan on doing some sort of Alice and Wonderland skit in which I'm the Cheshire Cat and the scenery director. However, everyone but me and my friend Maranda (who is the director) seems to have lost interest in it, so it most likely won't take off. However, it is fun, and we usually walk to the nearby arcade or the 7-11 afterwards. Emileesings goes to these meetings as well.
Speaking of Emileesings, we've been doing a lot of stuff together, and even started writing a fanfiction together. It's called, "The Adventures of Two Sexy Waffles" if you can believe that. It's on fanfiction.net, and it actually has nothing to do with waffles, misleading as the title may be. We're thinking of also converting it into a comic, which will be fun and challenging for me. I regard her now as a sister, and haven't a clue on how my life would possibly be funny without her in it. We went o Aki Con together last November, and it was the BOMB, even though neither of us completed our costumes. We plan on going this November, and until then, you can watch videos of it on Youtube.^^
The family has been doing well. Bob recently turned thirteen, and now has a better cell phone than I do.TT-TT Both me and Bob Alpha have been trying to come up with excuses to steal it. Luckily, my phone upgrade is in a month or so, and then I can get a touch screen too. Bob-Jo hasn't been nearly as annoying as she could be, except that she always seems to want to snuggle and do stuff together whenever I want to get things done, and then when I don't mind, she doesn't care! Bob Jr. has been his adorable self, always trying to get people's attention and make people laugh. Our personalities have gotten so that our friends from church have taken to calling us after the four ninja turtles, me being Leonardo, Bob being Donatello, Bob-Jo being Raphael, and Bob Jr. being Michaelangelo. I'm not even sure if they know Bob Jr.'s real name, but then again, neither do you.=P
Speaking of church, we switched churches. I didn't say much - or rather, anything - about our previous church, mostly because there wasn't much worth mentioning. I never really felt comfortable at Sun Valley Church, mainly because I don't think the other kids my age liked me that much. Sure they would participate with me when we played games and such, but I was always picked last in stuff like that. Me being A.D.D. and lonely from having just moved into that general area, I tried to impress them by being hyper, because that's what A.D.D. teens do to try to impress people they have to be around long term. However, they never actually came around to liking me enough to actually want to do stuff with me willingly. They never said anything like that (not to my face anyway), but I could tell in the way they acted around me. If you've ever heard the song "Stained Glass Masquerade" by Casting Crowns, that's exactly how I felt.
But now that we've switched churches, I actually feel...welcome. It feels nice to have people talk to you because they want to and not because they're obligated to just because you go to the same church as them or because you look lonely. Don't you hate that, when you're a teen and an adult comes and starts talking to you about mediocre things just because no one else is talking to you? Doesn't it just make you feel awkward? I've always hated knowing adults are only talking to you because they pity you. Especially when you have no reason to be pitied. And it's even worse when they send their kid to talk to you. As if you won't notice that they don't actually want to be there. If more adults realized this, more teens wouldn't be as rebellious.
Well, that's enough for now I suppose, because my fingers are about to cramp up. Feels good to get all that off my chest though. I'll be back if I don't forget.^^
