Nothing To Report

I don't have really anything too exciting to say, but I have neglected my blog the past few days due to homework, so I thought I would write something anyway.

I did a painting for the art portion of my Humanities cluster and I am quite happy with the way it turned out. I painted a giant blue cat in front of the pyramids of Giza (instead of the Sphinx). The sun is setting, which causes the cat and the pyramids to cast shadows. The cat is guarding his master's tomb and is sinister looking as if to say, "Don't mess with the pharoah's stuff, man." It was my first attempt at painting in ten years or so and my very first attempt to use oil paints. I love oil paints! My friend Dave says I love everything. Maybe I have a bit of Buddist monk in me. I do love everything, well, almost everything. Maybe it's the meds. Maybe it's the paint fumes.

Some gals at work and I formed a team for the Susan B. Komen Breast Cancer walk on June 18 of this year. I am so happy to do this walk. Sadly, I know too many people whose lives have been affected by breast cancer. I have had to work in past years and have not been able to participate. We can also walk "In memory of" or "In celebration of" someone.

Last October I did a walk for Autism research and had a blast meeting all sorts of people with Austism and seeing the different dyanamics of it. It was very touching and it felt great to take part in the walk.

I love walking for causes!
