"But you don’t know about the flame that burns here in my heart.
It leaps and flickers and grows beneath the chilled exterior, eating my flesh away from the inside, consuming me. It hurts with a sting I have never felt before. It melts away the numbness and lashes out abruptly, warming me for a moment, burning me the next. It has wavered at times, threatening to fade out—but I know secretly it never will. It has forced my soul to emerge from the darkness and stand in awe of its dancing light, covering my face, hoping that I am not burned alive. I fear it, but I love it, and when it dies I know that my body is going to fail along with it. So I cherish the flame, I cup it in my hand, I shield it from the public eye—I conceal it even from you."

Well, the last time I updated my journal was before last semester ended so I think it's time to do it again. ^.^;;
Entered my junior year in college I love it so far and we're only two weeks into it. Love my classes, cept for maybe one which is really dull. Workload seems to be pretty decent as of right now. I have a lot to do but it's manageable as long as my boss keeps me to a reasonable work schedule.
My roommate and I decided to start a webcomic (like we don't have enough on our plates with school and work as it is ;; )so I might be posting some stuff up soon. We're going to TRY to start with once a week uploading, most likely on Sunday which is a day I always have off. She's writing the scripts, with me tweaking them as I go along with the art. Still debating on whether or not I'm going to color all of them, still up in the air and it depends on the time frame I give myself. I'm hoping I'll become a little better at drawing and not get too frustrated with everything so here is crossing my fingers that things turn out okay.
On an awesome note, I just passed my road test, whcih means I am LEGALLY allowed to drive without a licensed driver next to me . I was nervous when I took it yesterday but I did well, considering I haven't driven my uncles car since beginning of spring semester. Though I did learn stick over the summer and I have to say I love the power rush you get when flooring it on the highway .
Gotta ask mom if I can borrow her car for a day and take my roomie on a little road trip out to the 'more countryside than we are now' when the leaves really start to change colors. It's so pretty. I just hope I don't get lost, haven't been that way in a while .
I'm feeling pretty good now that I'm back at school surrounded by people. Summer sucked so bad. No one to talk to but family unless I wanted to try and wrestle the phone from my 'teenage girl' brother who stays up till three in the morning talking to people. It wouldn't have been so bad if I had internet... but that's over with. I'm going to be looking into housing for next summer, maybe this winter session too. I can't go home again, I'll go insane, even if I did have a vehicle to drive.
Well, I think that's about it. Pretty good since I got maybe 4 hours of sleep last night. That's what happens when you want to work on a comic and don't have class or work the next day . See ya around.
