Waah...
Thank goodness, I get a 4 day weekend due to teachers conventions.
Haha, the other day, a friend of mine told me a joke...I thought it was kinda funny, so I'm sharing it. *warning: I don't want/mean to offend anyone with this, and I'm not racist in any way. I just think that this joke was a good laugh. I don't mean anything by it. To read or not to read is your choice*

So there was this old lady at a casino. She won a whole bucket of quarters. I know... Then, she decided to take them to her hotel room, which was upstairs of the casino. She walked to the elevator, pressed the up button. When the elevator door opened, there were these two African guys. One was tall, and the other not so tall. She was nervous and scared that they might rob her, but forced herself into the elevator anyway. After a few minutes, she realized that the elevator wasn't moving. So one of the African guys said, "Hit the floor." So this old lady threw her bucket of quarters in the air...raining quarters. The African guys, trying to hold back their laughter, said, "Madam, I meant to hit the 2nd floor so that the elevator can move." So these two kind gentlemen helped the old lady to pick up all the quarters. They also walked this old lady to her room just to make sure she'll be okay. ~~~The next day, this old lady received a HUGE bouquet of beautiful roses. Each of the roses was attached with a note and $100. On the note, it says, "Thank you for the laugh that we hadn't have for many years. -Eddie Murphy and Michael Jordan ."

And according to my friend, this was a true story... it's a wonder how this old lady doesn't recognize them...
Well, I hope you got some humor out of this. I sure did.

Why such a long time? Well, the 24th is when my spring break starts. Right after the winter break, I have mid-term exams . and I will most likely be busy in the times between with a billion tons of homework.

Yay! The prize! I will take a portrait (chest and up) request of any character from the winner. The winner can pick 2 of their artworks to be featured in my journals for 3 months with his/her avatar.
