Drawing

For those of you who know me, you know that I have never really been the artistic sort. Doodling was the extent of my artistic capabilities, and I was OK with that. Recently, though, I decided to give drawing another go. With the help of some online tutorials and a lot of patience and determination, I was rewarded with some pretty good results, even if I do say so myself. I actually really enjoy it. Go figure!

Luigi and Mario!

Simba from The Lion King

BUGS BUNNY

Everyone knows this guy!

A Cyberman from BBC's Doctor Who TV series. :D Yes, I know. He's supposed to have handles coming out of his head. 

Brothers

Here's a song I just recently discovered: Brothers by Dean Brody. Even if you don't like country music, it's worth listening to. It brought tears to my eyes, and not many songs do that!

New Look!

I decided it was time for a change in the background image of my blog, which ended up resulting in an all-out makeover. Hmm...

Anyway, I wanted my new background to reflect the sunny, warm, delightful summer-like weather we've been having here in Kelowna lately. Today, it got up to 27 degrees Celsius, and we were all sweating like pigs. Well, actually not like pigs. Did you know that pigs don't sweat? :) It's true! That's why they roll in the mud, because they have no other way of cooling themselves off. 

Back to the point, I liked the little fruit things on the background as well. They reminded me of the Okanagan valley and the abundance of fruit that grows here. Granted, those look like lemons. I don't know if lemons grow that well here. :)

So, why am I rambling on and on about lemons and pigs? I honestly don't know. I think the sun's getting to me. *GASP* THE SUN'S GONE WIBBLY!

Maybe tomorrow my brain will return, as it seems to have gone AWOL. 

Anyway, have a great day! 

On My Way

Just thought I'd share with you all one of my favourite songs right now. :) I first heard it as background music for a fan-made Doctor Who video on YouTube. It was such a catchy song that I decided to try to find the real thing: and I did! Some of you may recognize it, others might plug their ears and run as far away as they possibly can. It's one of those songs where you either love it or you can't stand it. :D

So here it is: On My Way by The Proclaimers. Enjoy!
