Oooh. Shiny.

I got a free art lesson today, from my friend Rebecca (metal-icarus.deviantart.com <---Check it out!) She taught me better ways to use pastels. The main thing was that you can blend pastels with pastels. This is made easier by the fact that I have chalk pastels. So, they're less smudgy, I guess? Less residue, really. But yes. I drew 2 eggs, a pot, and part of a lamp. And I'm getting better! Woo! So yes.

On a separate note, I watched some of the Olympic gymnastics today. One word: damn. I mean, the basics are probably really fun, but seriously now. How much of a life can you have when you're that dedicated? I barely have one as is. :P
