Tryin' out some other journal skins.

Figured it was about time for an update, considering I'm working on the fifth chapter of Origins and that was a peek at the third.

And - if anyone doesn't know it yet - I GOT ACCEPTED INTO SAVANNAH COLLEGE OF ART AND DESIGN!!!!!!!



SOOOOOOO EXCITED!!!!!!!



I got accepted into the honors program, and I am currently in the process of trying to take care of the proper finances, housing, and fine print before I head up there at the beginning of 2010, as well as try to get an additional scholarship........so I probably won't be on dA as much as I have been.

But again.......I'm SOOOOOOOO HAPPY!!!!!!!!
Anyhoo, on to the fun stuff.

EDIT: Movie quiz!!!

Swiped from
