Hi i made another picture on Photoshop just recently. I found a tutorial on the internet that I liked so I tried it on a picture of Genevieve. I think it turned out pretty good so here it is.

I also changed the same picture into a sketch style.

I you have any thing you really want to learn that you see in this post, just leave a comment and I'll do my best to post a tutorial.

Adios,

Book Review

I just finished the first three books in the Ranger's Apprentice series, all three of them were awesome. They are about an orphan named Wil who became a ranger's apprentice, fought in a war, and got taken prisoner. Unfortunately the fourth book doesn't come out till next March, But I definately reccomend this series.

A day in the life.

It's Monday already!?! Jeez, the weekend went by to fast, I want a refund LOL. I did get to go driving for about an hour yesterday, that was fun. I managed to drive around a building about five times, without hitting anything. I also got a book that I've been wanting to read for a while, it's called the Bourne Identity.

My little brother Isaac is sick he was really conjested last night. Please pray for him, and my baby sister who is finally starting to get better from her illness that has lasted a month. She is on breathing treatments, which are really helping. She was really wheezy but not anymore which we're all very thankful for.

O.k. this song is from one of my favorite bands Stellar Kart. It is called Me and Jesus this song has helped me through so many hard times, horrible moods, and various other times when I felt completly hopeless.Plus it is a beautiful song.

VERSE 1:
When there nowere else to turn,
all your bridges have been burned,
feels like you've hit rock bottom,
don't give up; it's not the end.
Open up your heart again
when you feel like no one undestands
where you are.

CHORUS:
Someone loves you
even when you don't think so.
Don't you know?
You got me and Jesus
by your side through the fight,
you will never be alone,
on your own.
You got me and Jesus.

VERSE 2:
After all that we've been through,
by now you know I've doubted, too.
But every time my head was in my hands,
you said to me:

CHORUS:
Someone loves you
even when you don't think so.
Don't you know?
You got me and Jesus
by your side through the fight,
you will never be alone,
on your own.
You got me and Jesus.

BRIDGE:
Hold on to what we got.
This is worth any cost,
so make the most of life that's borrowed;
love like there's no tomorrow.

CHORUS:
Someone loves you
even when you don't think so.
Don't you know?
You got me and Jesus
by your side through the fight,
you will never be alone,
on your own.
You got me and Jesus.

A day in the life.

Today was AWESOME!!! I finally got my learners permit yesterday, so this morning my dad gave me my first driving lesson! I was quite surprised, it's not as easy to drive as I thought it would be. Right after I got home from my driving lesson my brother and I went to skate station with our Grandpa like we do, and have been doing every Saturday for the past year and eight months. I LOVE skating it's right up there with playing my guitar. So we skated for about 4 hours then came home. That is a day in the life of me.
