Star bringing yorbel
Well, I graduated today. Got some money from relatives. Still haven't finished packing, but I have started the sketching process for the next animation I'm doing (see previous post). I plan on staying up all night, as I find it very difficult to sleep only a couple of hours, and I must away to the ATL at 5:30 tomorrow morning. My plane leaves at 8:35 (!). Hopefully I'll sleep on the plane, as we start driving on the Alcan immediately.
Okay, but graduation. It was good. I graduated Summa Big Honor. Our valedictorian actually had an interesting message. Shirley Franklin, the mayor of Atlanta, was the guest speaker. As with most speakers, her words were mostly fluff, but sincere enough, I guess. The thing seemed to go pretty quickly until after I had received my diploma. Then it dragged on and on. We had about 300 people graduate. I'm sure some of you out there might say "Feh. That's nothing. My school's super huge." May be. Whatever. I was still bored. Somebody brought a couple of beach balls and blew them up and they were bounced around the graduating class for a while. At the end, when we were standing up, waiting to go, they started throwing one with a smiley face on it around again. It came towards me, so I hit it. It landed on a girl's head some ways in front of me, knocking her cap (and, I believe, her glasses) off. A guy two seats to the right of me said "Hey, that's my girlfriend!" I shrugged and said sorry. About three minutes later, someone hit the ball and it landed on the same girl's head, again knocking her cap and glasses off! Fuh-nee.
Oh well, the packing time, she comes.

Have you seen any polar bears? What about penguins? We are very concerned about artic animals. Do they have iced tea there, or do you just have to go lick a glacier? What's the dumbest thing in the gift store? What about a Hello Kitty Eskimo?
