I wanted to play something people would enjoy, and I guess that worked! Actually, my t-shirt was supposed to diss MIT. The front says: MIT; The back says: "Because not everyone can get into Caltech." Thanks for the standing ovation too :). I'm afraid I was a bit "shell" shocked from playing so I didn't notice a lot of the audience. But thanks for the applause and everything. You're a great person. -------- Hey MyNa, I didn't let you see my drawing in detail since I stink at drawing! If you looked at it any longer, you would have noticed that it was horrible! Kakashi's the only person I can draw since he's fairly easy with half of his face covered. I'm pretty sure you can draw better than I can.... -mX Hey Felix,

Hey MyNa,

I didn’t let you see my drawing in detail since I stink at drawing! If you looked at it any longer, you would have noticed that it was horrible! Kakashi’s the only person I can draw since he’s fairly easy with half of his face covered. I’m pretty sure you can draw better than I can….

It seems that the not caring aspect comes from not caring for oneself, but for enlightenment instead.

I was on AIM a little bit today, but I have this big AP English assignment that I've been meaning to work on... I'll see if I can sign on AIM from time to time.
