Day 35.5; Tuesday, July 21st

Today I made an art shop with my cow, after getting her art priced in the proper subforum. I ate a whole bag of yummy sweet rice cracker thingies. I realised Chris' birthday party was this weekend, thanks to Mish.

Woke up, got online, read manga. You know, the usual. Kat got online, and we got her art priced. Then we made the art shop in the afternoon, after MUCH discussion on a name for it. xD She told me to put whatever I like, so that's exactly what I did. ;D While she was offline, I made a banner for the shop, using the colours she used for her Lunar's Box.

I have like a month to finish reading the Odyssey and my French assignment too. &/3 So tried to read the Odyssey more today.

My mum thought there was something wrong with me today because I wasn't talking as much as I usually do. o_O; And I usually talk quite a bit.

Went swimming and managed to swim 8 laps freestyle, then one for fly (beat my mum swimming breaststroke with my fly, amazingly.), and then a backstroke, which was slow, and finally raced my mum. She swims down to the flags on the other side of the pool, so almost half of a lap, and then I start swimming as fast as I can and try to beat her. I won today. ;D Woot!

Came home and started working on my first art request from someone I know. &3 Almost finished it.

Talked to my cow a lot while drawing, which was fun. xD Is Peru in South America? So they speak South American, don't they? &:'B YUSH! They definitely do! Kat told me Americans don't speak American. T^T Isn't it like...American-English or something, so you can shorten it to American? The people in Britain speak British-English, which can be shortened to British! It makes perfect sense. What doesn't make so much sense is why zucchinis are called courgettes in British-English. o_O;; Hmm...strange.

Pickles are failed and dead cucumbers. I sorta like sweet pickles. There are these weird Asian pickle thingies that I eat with rice porridge. I think they're yummy. &3 (I also like those...weird dry brown things that go with rice porridge. xD They're called rousong! I tend to nom on a little of that stuff sometimes, since it's way yummy. xD;; ) [Too little water with rice, and you end up with American version of white rice. Too much and you've got rice porridge. xD] Zucchinis are just big cucumbers, really.

I asked my cow to text me tomorrow morning for one important reason. <3 I have lotsa trouble getting up out of bed most days. ^_^;
