Wow. I haven't updated in a long time. School has been following me everywhere lately. Exams are going to be less than week, but thankfully I've noticed that I only have to take four exams and not all seven of my classes. I might go see The Golden Compass today. :D Critics rated it a C over here. I was really surprised, but if you read the books and if you see it doesn't go along, then it makes sense for rating it that. Plus we're finally putting up Christmas lights! My parents just yelled at me for getting the wrong bow. XD

I have my piano recital tomorrow. Oh joy. -.- I hate it when it's that time of year where I have to sit front of the piano and people are just staring at you waiting for you to mess up. Oh the nerve!

And *ahem* National Treasure: Book of Secrets comes out the 21st. ^^

I can't believe December is almost here. I already found my Christmas presents. haha. My parents did so much shopping on Black Friday. They finally got me the iPod Touch. YES! Everytime I ask them they go, "Nope we haven't gotten it yet." xD Oh such liars you are. Anyways, in 3 weeks I have exams...or even less than that. Teachers are already cramming in stuff. I'm not doing that bad in any of my classes, but I'm so worried about Literature and Geometry. ugh.

Can't wait till 2nd semester though. We get exempted from finals. COOLEST THING EVER TO HAPPEN TO ANYONE SOPHOMORES AND ABOVE! xD And I might probably get my wisdom teeth out over Christmas break which sucks big time, but I'm not sure yet if it's really happening.

I was on a roll today with making icons. :D

Later this Spring I'm going to be really excited. Jim Sturgess is coming out with another movie called 21.
He is soo amazing in it and it looks like a really good movie. I absolutely love the trailer.



So last night I watched clips of My Boy Jack on YouTube and I wish it was being shown here in the United States. Dan is just simply amazing. Hopefully that DVD will come across seas. xD

So Thursday was my Sophomore retreat and thanks to my friend for telling me one portion on what was going to happen. That one portion was our where retreat instructor put on some rubber gloves, played the song Piano Man by Billy Joel...and started dancing to it. I couldn't watch it, but then he said, "Whenever you hear this song, think of me." I was so mad how he had to ruin that amazing song! Anyways...Our retreat instructor had like over 9 jobs in total that he had done over his lifetime. He was just an odd personal in general. O.o

Moving onto the doorbell part. Right now it's just 1:00 in the morning, but around an hour ago the doorbell to the house rang and I literally freaked out. Then I turned off my computer monitor for some strange reason and then I saw a flashlight coming in through my window and this time I literally ran out of my room and woke up my parents'. I was freaking out so bad, but apparently they couldn't find anyone who did it. Plus we have such strange neighbors. -__-

You can see how nice I am here. haha.

And yeah I made some things for you guys to enjoy!

Oh how wonderful it was to go back to school today after a long 3-day weekend. *sarcasm*

So I'm suppose to finish off some chemistry homework, but I got distracted and made a banner because I was bored. xD Today I got my yearbook from when I was a ickle, little Freshmen! Just from looking at me I haven't changed much, seeing as how I'm just a Sophomore right now. haha. Pretty excited for my retreat on Thursday (even though it probably might be boring). I get to miss all my classes and I get out an hour early so it's all good.

So this is my first entry on Livejournal. How exciting. xD
My name is Cadence and I'm 16 years old. I wish I was living in London, but I'm stuck here in the United States. As you can see I like to make icons, especially banners. I use GIMP and I try to make the best out of that program. I absolutely love music and if you want to find out anything else just check out my profile to see some other things I like.

Right now I'm trying to figure out how to do this in GIMP:
 

If anyone knows that would be so great of you. I'm trying to figure out the coloring, that's all.
