End of the School Year--Almost

As I finish my sophmore year at HHHS, I find that I have indeed been very bad about keeping my grades up in some of my classes. Oddly my foreign language [spanish] is still in good shape [B+]; I'd think that'd be the first to go down, personally. I have two C's and an F. Yes, I know, I can do better, believe me my mother has already given me this lecture twice. But I promise I've got it under control, mostly.

Yesterday, I was sitting out front of HHHS waiting for my mom to pick me up [in my state you don't even get your permit until 16 much less your license which comes at 17] and one of my senior friends came out dranging her huge art portfolio bag behind her. I asked if she needed help and she said no so I just watched as she made her way to the edge of the sidewalk, dragging this bag that's 2/3rds her height. When she set it down [actually it kind of fell over when she stopped] I asked her if I could have one of her drawings, seeing as she's leaving and getting rid of a lot of it anyways.

So she let me riffle aound in her bag until I found the coolest "work of art" ever. It's this huge sketch done on black paper of a girl's face with a blue dragon and a red fox. It's super colorful. I'll try to get a picture of it up here later. It's hanging up in my room over my desk and I don't even mind that it stares at me while I sleep. It's that cool.
