I like cameos but I don't have any. Maybe someday I'll get one made of someone I know!

A piece of jewelry, typically oval in shape, consisting of a portrait in profile carved in relief on a background of a different color. (Stolen from Wikipedia ) If that doesn't make sense, do a google search for cameos and then hit images; just be careful, because sometimes they like to do it in what I call Greek/Roman style, and there can be some immodest images.

Hope I love your ninja pictures! Those were awesome!
I was at church about four feet from the welcome center and I saw a graduation card that has a boy with red hair. I thought to myself "Why does Isaac have a grad invite on the table; he's not graduating for another year?" Then I looked closer and saw it was Josiah's. Did you take those pictures or did someone else. They're really good; nice quality too. I don't know if we'll be able to make his party because it's the day after my birthday and we might have my party then. I can't believe I'm almost fourteen!

Wow, things just got even more hectic! I just finished recording a part for my brother's latest contest film entry, I need to finish the last few pages of Dawn, (I promise I'll get it to you guys next Sunday if not this one) and now I've found out that since my aunt is having surgery she wants Isaac and I to come stay with her for a couple weeks in Ohio and help cook and clean while her husband is out working! The surgery is on July 14th, which is a day before my birthday, so now we have to figure out how we're going to get there, who's driving us, when we're going, if we want to be gone on my birthday, and how long we'll stay! Plus our Summer Reading Program, the Fourth of July, we want to go to the fair sometime, and I have a room to clean when I get home! (I'm at my grandparents house.)
On a lighter note, I just bought a really cool box at a garage sale. It's sort of wicker, sort of metal accents, with a hinge clasp. I might use it for my 'treasures' or my paper, pens, and pencils.
So what are ya'll going to do for the Fourth? I might go to a parade with my family, or a little festival on Sunday night. Whew, this is a long post. As someone on here before wrote once "I'd better post this before it gets any longer"

Wow, it looks like you will be busy. A cool box. Fun! I love boxes. And trinkets. We're going to have a cookout and make pizza pies and s'mores. And we'll do fireworks. And watch a movie.

Well, it's set. The next time I post to you guys, I'll be in southern Indiana with my grandparents. Next Monday, my dad is driving Isaac and I down to my grandparent's house in Indi, and then on Wednesday, they'll drive us to our uncle and aunt's house in Ohio. We should be gone for almost three weeks. We'll be back the 30th, or the 31st. I'll be gone during my birthday. And it's only a week and two days away So sad. That I'll be gone, I mean, not that it's soon. But that means we're having an early party for me on Sunday at my other grandparent's house.

Greetings from Indi! I am officially starting my three weeks sojourn.
Hope, you need to stop doing this to me! Posting pictures of cute office supplies is driving me crazy! I was able to resist buying the one and a half inch by three inch, one ring note pad and make my own, but we were at Staples with our grandparents and guess what happened? I came out with a tiny little binder that can fit in my pocket.
And you dagger... that is so awesome! Where on earth did you brother get that? Which one was it? What is a swap meeting? I can't wait for the other pics!

I love my little binder. I can write each scene on a page and then spread the pages out and organizing them, etc. It works well as long as I don't sigh over my story. Otherwise the papers go flying everywhere. Josiah bought the dagger for me at the Wolf Lake Swap Meet. It's kind of like the Flea Market, except for one day a month (three or four months out of the summer) and it's generally farm stuff. Animals. Knives. Guns. Swords. The last one this year is August 20th and I really want to go. I might have gone this last time, but I hadn't thought about them having daggers.

Hope, I have some questions about the Legionarres. Since you don't require an email address in sign-up, how am I notified about things like the giveaways, or drawings, or special article, or realm leaper stuff? BTW, I love that you put 'What are some of your favorite books' as a mandatory question.

If anyone wants to practice typing or find out how fast they can type, check out this really good writing test! I use it for school, actually, but I do it for fun too. It keeps my fingers fresh, even during those unfortunate spans when I am unable to accomplish any writing. typing-speed-test.aoeu.eu/?lang=en

Okay, I guess I'm officially a member of this forum now, but it wouldn't accept "Corissa, Maiden of Praise" as a user name, so on the forum I'm just Corissa.
