QUEEN OF DORKS

Ok so I single-handedly won a sudden death round at Trivia Night tonight, getting ALLLLLLLLLLLLL the questions right!!!!! ANNNNND they had a Kids' Lit round so NATURALLY I aced it!!!!!!

And we BEAT OUT the top two super-genius teams who win practically every Trivia Night and we can finally GET OUR PICTURE ON THE WALL OF FAME!!! WOOHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

.............the thought does occur that if any of you Geek Fight peeps had been here you would have gotten even more questions right. That sudden death round was on urbandictionary terms, for Hawking's sake. I cannot believe I was the ONLY one who answered 'Hipsters' on one question and 'Dork' on another. I mean, what do people do all day?*

BUT STILL I HELPED OUR TEAM WIN FIRST PLACE WOOOOOOOOOOOO

*yes, I know the answer is 'something more interesting, usually.' let me have my moment plz.

new scanner

So it's been a month--and I was finally able to buy a scanner!

This is big, you guys. It doesn't seem big, but it means something that I was able to do some legwork, pick my weapon (CanoScan LIDE 100)...and pay for every part of it with money I earned and saved myself. I'm not a very...independent person, so this is pretty much a first for me. It's also the very first scanner I own all to myself and don't share with family or classmates, which feels just as significant.

I've had jobs before, but always with supplemental income. Now I'm paying bills and buying important things with money I earned myself, and...it's about time, you know? Kind of pathetic, but I will improve with age...I hope!

Anyway, I think I'd like to do some sketchblogging to celebrate.

Finished Scott Pilgrim the other day and decided to re-read the whole series, ended up drawing curvy hipster girls...and one skinny one, below.

Her t-shirt reads 'LL YR VWLS R BLNG T S', an inside joke from Making Light, one of my favourite blogs.
