"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime." - Mark Twain

Okay guys, we are officially doing a countdown. :) Im going to catch everyone up on whats happened and add a few recent adventures that I have had. I just got back from Tennessee to see my grandparents before I left for the Navy. Boy if that didnt make me feel guilty about leaving, I dont know what would. Seeing my mom and Grandma cry wasnt my favorite thing in the whole world. As soon as we got back, I threw my bags in my room and dumped them out on the bed, grabbed a few clean articles of clot…

My husband and I went with some friends to the Shrine club. It was very upscale. We had to purchase a collar shirt which was expensive.

It was nominated for Best New club 2009 throughout the entire world. Stars like User, P. Diddy, Jenny McCarthy, Carmen Electra and a lot more stepped into the Shrine to have fun...

Being a senior in high school, it feels as though the weight of the world is on your shoulders. Not only is there a last time for everything, last first day of high school, last pep assembly, last homecoming dance, etc, but people ask you everyday what are you going to do with the rest of your life. When it seems like everyone around you has their life planned out, it's a scary feeling when you have no clue what you want to do with yours ... which, in a round about way, leads me to how I found T…

So I've just started uni. It's monday morning of freshers week, 11:00, I'm awake with a bit of a head-ache, stomach-ache and an everything else-ache, I assume that this is what you call a Hangover.
I moved into my new flat on Thursday and met all my flatmates on Saturday, who are all the coolest people ever!
I told 'em, I had a list of things to do before I die and we got talkin about them, they all seemed really eager to help me out. It's party week though and the only one that seemed suitable…

So one of my goals (actually, it would be goal #1) is to become a published comic artist. I really love drawing, and I love comics and stories. I'm a DC girl myself, but Marvel makes great stuff too (hopefully it stays that way, what with the Disney takeover and all).
Anyway...
I did a pre-college thing at RISD over the summer and got two 6-page comics out of it. I don't have a scanner big enough to get a good picture, but I have some blurry photographic evidence of one of them. This one is a…
