Today's
picture is a guest picture, and it's done by Scherene, who came over to my
place for the first time and I bored her with my sketchbooks. It's appropriate,
considering today I was away for my Graduation ceremony.The music I picked, the middle part of Jupiter, wasn't needed after all as some other girl volunteered some Pink Floyd (???) before I got there. Meh. Seven grads in all... Picture taking took a while because one person was late. That was before the music stuff... which lasted all of 5 seconds and I didn't notice it anyway. Then there were a bunch of speeches, some of which were quite interesting, and then people got introduced and handed their certificate. My French teacher, who rambles on nicely, introduced me. It was funny because he said he remembered something from English class - your speech should fit on a recipe card. So, he put it there, but he still used his other papers, too, and he couldn't find a blank recipe card! So, he didn't make a mistake and say 'piecrust', but he warned us. Then I won two bursaries, and the Governor General's Bronze Medal!?!!! The other people who won bursaries all sounded like great people; one boy single-handedly organized the Student Council, and a girl was with NIDES for a similar reason as me - she wanted to focus on her dance. I was not expecting to win a medal. It's pretty. And my piano teacher gave me a pretty necklace! Pretty, I say!
Dad plays Deadlock 1 obsessively.
I have begun play Link's Awakening again, and I'm about half-way through. I managed to get the picture of Link and Marin for the first time! I'm playing to remember the plot so that I can write the sequel to Timeless Ocarina with sense. Since the game plot is pretty sketchy, I have lots of freedom! Also, it's a bit silly. The things people say... the hints are ludicrously obvious.
