Here's what I doodled:
Alright, so it's not a realistic portrait, but hey, it gives you a clue of what I look like. I used to have really long, wavy hair, but I cut it earlier this year as a symbol of letting go of what happened in the past - that I soon regret doing. So now, I have shoulder-length hair that's far more straighter than it had been last time.
As you can see, my face is round, and my hair is tied into a ponytail - which is my usual hairdo (see, I'm no good at hair styling) when at home. I wear a hijab outside, though.

The new semester's going to begin this Monday. I'm quite crestfallen that it's ending too quickly, but I'm anxious to begin again - this time, I'm determined to not speak to anyone once the teacher starts talking. That means you too, Fafrina. ( = 3 = )
Hey, desperate times calls for desperate measures. I'm not very good at splitting my already short attention span, so it's important I make sure I understand each subject.
My grandparents are in the house - they're here to look after me and my sister since my mom got a new job and the maid's gone. I'm feeling a bit guilty for neglecting my duties to entertain their time, but what can I do? I'm getting more and more busy each passing day as I cram all sorts of info into my brain.
Yes, I'm finally starting to follow my study schedule. I'm hoping with time and great discipline, I would be able to catch up to where the smart students are. That also means you too, Fafrina. Musheeroom, if you're reading, I'm taking up your mom's challenge at being your competition in the academics field. I'll prove to be a potent opponent, I'll make sure of that so that one day, we could be sent of to Japan on the school exchange program.
Studying proves to be much easier when there's nothing to distract or pressure me. I dislike when people poke and force me to go read a book, so when I have the freedom of choice to study by my own will, it's much less of a burden. Also, a clean environment helps a lot.
Speaking of cleaning, I'm almost done with the cleaning of my room - which is quiet a huge surprise. Thanks to new storage space, I'm able to keep all my prized possessions without having it clutter my room.
Also! I'm taking up the Drawing Challenge from here.
Here's Day 1.
The computer in my house is going whack. So's the Internet connection.
So today, I mainly doodled, read and wrote my second Hetalia fanfic. (Not finished yet, though! ><)
Here are the lazy sketches. I'm getting more used to the pen, so it looks better than my previous doodles.
I made a more wild-haired version of the girl here:
Which version do you like better?
[End]
Proof I'm not slacking off on my promise.
I'm no longer sick! YAY!
Also, I'm back from a wonderful 2-day trip to Penang. At first, I didn't want my fever to go away because I didn't want to go (I don't like leaving the house much ><), but now it has come to me that it was very lucky of me to have gone. There were so many amazing things I get to experience, sights I was able to hear, foods I was able to eat. In short, I regret nothing.
I'll try hard to squeeze in blogging time in the next few days, but I'll tell you here, it's going to be very hard. For one thing, my mother's bent on cleaning up the old house. And another, I'm beginning to realize that I've been taking my studies too lightly from the moment I ever stepped into high school. I need to be more focused.
Also, because there's problems with my netbook, I am unable to post using it. That leaves me to no choice other than to suck up to my sisters and beg for a few minutes of Internet time.
Siiigh. This is the life of a teenage blogger. This is the life of a closet fangirl.
See ya!
