First things first, THANK YOU ~Asfodelo! He drew one of my characters, Ilfrona to be precise, for me and he did a drop dead gorgeous job. Go shower him with love and cookies!

Also, Congratulations to *Aurella! She just got engaged! I wish you two an amazing wedding, and a long and happy life together (with seperate cookie bags of course ).

Obviously I'm back from Panama and let me just say it was a truly wonderful trip. I learned so much not just about the people and the place, but alot about myself as well. I can honestly say there will always be a soft spot in my heart for the wonderful people of Panama. I was able to meet many of the same people I had met in February along with many new ones. I learned also some very interesting cultural facts that I had not known before about some of the traditions in San Juan. For instance, if a boy and a girl are seen talking together much they are considered to be in love. All of the girls on the trip were good friends with the guys so we must have looked scandolous! Although we really did try to keep it on the down low.

As you may have noticed I'm trying to post a couple pictures everyday. I'm hoping you guys are enjoying them as much as I am (especially the bubbles!). While on the point of pictures though, I want to lay out something about them. I am making every Panama picture I post into a print. 100% of that profit will go to a young Panamanian girl who I am sponsoring to finish school this year. Honestly, I can only support her a little bit from my own paycheck, but I'm hoping that maybe I can add to it with prints. She really is an adorable girl and has worked very hard to get where she is today. For that matter, once she's done with school I will continue to support (with as much as possible) one Panamanian student a year. If you would like to help, but don't want to buy a print, please note me so I can give the address where to send the money to.

Next order of business, school starts again so very soon! Honestly, I'm kind of looking forward to it! I can't wait to start my world politics class. That should be so much fun! Of course for every up there's a down...math class. Duh-duh-dun!! :scared: I'm so terrible at math! There goes my 4.0! *sigh* Oh well!

Oh my goodness, I totally forgot to mention! Guess what?! I'm getting published in a coffee table book! Can you believe it? It doesn't come out till the end of this year, but I made it! And the picture that got in, you ask? Why of course, Once Upon a Time. The title of the book isn't official, but it runs under the "Endless Journeys" series. I totally flipped when I found out. However, there is still the contest part of this. I'll be published either way, but I have a chance to win some money which I can honestly say will go directly to buying me some lenses, lights, and/or backgrounds. Thus, I shamelessly say...please vote for me?

Well, that's about all I have to say for now. My brain is very fried and I have alot of work to do tomorrow (the equine dentist is coming, oh noes!), so I'll be off to bed! Oh, yes, but before I go I just found out the play my old drama department is doing: Neverland. Thus get ready because this spring Peter Pan meets Kaitlin!
