You said no star was out of reach

DUDE and check out this present from Emi: Sierra from Dollhouse!!!!:

SO GREAT! xD <3 I got to see the actress who plays Sierra, Dichen Lachman, at a Comic-Con party this summer. She is gorgeous in person and seemed nice as well! Thanks, Emi!!

Ever just the same, ever a surprise

GUH just got back from Beauty & The Beast at the Newmark Theatre. Dad gave Mom tickets for Christmas, and she invited me. :DDD It was delightful! The play was fun and the cast and crew performed brilliantly. Lumiere, Cogsworth, and the Wardrobe were hysterical. It makes me sad that it is only performing for a few short weeks. I want to watch the animated movie so badly right now...!!

My gift to Mom:

Best Christmas ever, seriously. Now I just need a couple hundred dollars to give this art the framing it deserves...!

Because the sky is blue, it makes me cry

I've received some AMAZING art gifts this year, and just want to take a second to pimp them! (There will be more once I can get the physical art I've received scanned and uploaded)

First up, here's a birthday present Nico sent me on Tuesday!! ADORABLE. I smell a new profile picture~~ :)

Me as Saint Lucia in the Bend, OR Sons of Norway pageant. I just walked in a circle around the room with the other children behind me, but apparently it made my grandparents really happy, so cool. It was fun playing dress-up and participating a bit in the Norwegian culture.


My herd.


With Grandma and my cousins Abby and Emily. Note the ad for Lutefisk!

I ain't wastin' no more time

Happy holidays!

I'm out in Sunriver, Oregon, with my family for the week. My mom's family lives out here, so we're celebrating Christmas early with them before going back to Portland for the actual date.

T-minus 4 hours until I play Lucia in the Bend Sons of Norway Lodge's Christmas pageant!

Lol. Kind of excited.

My birthday is in 3 days!!! AHAHAHAHA!

Is our secret safe tonight

Check-in for surgery tomorrow at 5:30 AM :( But home, tonsil-less, by 12! :D

A simple celebration, a place you've never been before

I have been trying to draw as much as possible while I am still in Eugene, but I also have to study for finals, clean the house, and pack, and that's been getting in the way. I really want to finish my projects before the tonsillectomy Friday--who knows how many days I'll be loopy or half-dead on the couch...??

In happier news: have some new haircut pics!


I love it. But I have to learn how to draw my hair again xD;

I don't claim to know my way, I still run in circles every day

I can't post any of the projects I worked on today, but I can give you thumbnails...

I smell roses

AAAAAAAAUGH DUCKS!!!!!!!

Civil war football game last night between the Ducks and Beavers was BEYOND AWESOME. I was hanging out with a friend, and decided to go to the bars and catch the end of the game there, and we walked into Rennie's for the last 2 minutes of play, which were FANTASTIC. The bar went CRAZY when the game ended. We had reruns playing all night on the TV screens, I Love My Ducks on repeat, and people drinking crazy amounts of alcohol and talking at crazy volumes. When the stadium crowd got back to campus, there were lines outside of bars that NEVER have lines. It was insane. I smell roooooosessssss!

Day and night

HAHAHAHA.

I am down with music video nudity when it's this funny:
