My
other friend of this time period, Scherene, who showed an interest in Lord
of the Rings similar to mine, but not one that actually let us get around
to doing some of the things I would have found supremely interesting - learning
Quenya together, for example. She's a 'fiddle girl', through and through.
She's rather good at it, too. Anyhow, this is an absolutely terrible picture
and should be ignored. And she was watching me draw Thomas when I drew this.
If that makes sense.Running by myself is great! Also we cleaned up the whole house today because Aunt Debbie and a friend of hers planned to stay the night. We hung up my pictures and my bullatin board in my room, and now the walls are comfortably covered with my favourite clutter. There's a family portrait from before my brother was born, and a watercolour of me by Grandma - my birthday present, remember - and a poster of the Earth at Night from National Geographic, and a picture of Link next to a picture of my Silver Helms and underneath tracings of Raven, Eliwood, and Hector, and on my bullatin board there are things like a review of the Norouet group from Québec, and an article about New Zealand and its role in LotR from a magazine, and a couple of articles about a young pianist who was busking downtown and was attacked last October by a drug addict for $5, and then saved by a street painter. The pianist girl is doing her Grade 7 RCM this year, and she's my hero now. (so is the street painter)
Oh, yes, and today I snuck down and bought another green running shirt after organ practice. The lady at the counter was the same one as on Monday, and she remembered me and asked how my new running was going. I bought the one Mom liked, and it was supposed to be a surprise, but Dad blew it by telling her I needed another running shirt, and Mom blew it by not recognizing it as a new shirt the first day that I wore it and she saw it. >_>7
