For a Special Someone...

This post is dedicated to my dear friend and OYAN sister, Adrienne!! It was her birthday two days ago, so....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ADRIENNE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, I realize this is somewhat late, but since you helped to make MY birthday extra special, I thought I should return the favour. :) I loved reading on your blog about how amazing your birthday was. I hope I can extend that amazingness by making it just a little more special!

Things I love about Adrienne:

1. She's my sis. What's not to love about that? ;)

2. She is sweet and kind, always lending a helping hand to others, never failing to be an encouragement.

3. She loves Jesus with all her heart, constantly acknowledging her Savior through everything she does.

4. She's an OYANer and a fellow writer.

5. She views life with so much joy and passion, and challenges each day with a smile.

6. She is insanely epic. B-)

7. She's adorable!! ^_^

8. She's sarcastic and funny and downright awesome. :D

9. And perhaps best of all, SHE'S GOING TO THE SUMMER WORKSHOP IN KANSAS!!! :D I get to meet my dear sister for the first time!!

10. I felt like there should be a tenth reason. ;) You're just so awesome, Adrienne.

The list could really go on and on... You're such a darling girl, Adri!! I love you SO much and I cannot WAIT to meet you in only 17 days!!!

Love you, girl! Have a beyond marvelous day, and may God bless you beyond measure throughout all of your coming years. Never lose that spark of life that clings to you so dearly.

News. Epic news.

I have some news.

Some pretty small news, actually.

But news, nonetheless.

Wait for it.

...

22 DAYS UNTIL THE OYAN SUMMER WORKSHOP AND REUNION IN KANSAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, so that was small news.

Seriously, though! 22 days until I get to meet my second family!! *explosion of confetti and trumpet blaring* 22 days until possibly the most epic week of my life!! 22 days until I get to spend a WEEK with nerdy writers like me! :D

I don't know about you, but this is my idea of a summer holiday. B-) It'll be like a summer camp, but with ten truckloads of awesome added to it, battles about the nerdiest things, epic skits, amazing lectures by amazing people, AWESOME PEOPLE, Whovians, Nerdfighters, musicians, and above all, homeschoolers. ALL IN THE SAME ROOM ALL AT THE SAME TIME!!! O_O All that multiplied by 2. B-D

As I like to say, there is much to be done. I have a book to finish writing (or try to), someone else's book to finish critiquing before June, a costume to prepare, math and history to complete, a packing list to make, things to buy, lines to memorize, evil plans to carry out, a decision to make. Yep. I'm swamped. :P Oh, and not to mention, armour to prepare (for all those glomp attacks, y'know ;).

PLEASE, nobody pile anything more on me. I think I have enough on my shoulders to last for a good while. :P And three weeks to do it all! I do think, with God's help, that I will be able to make it and that everything will be prepared in good time. I hope.


Thanks for reading my rather random and pointless post! :D You people really make my day. ^_^

OYANers, beware! The queen shall be entering the court! Hold onto your pianos, or they will be played. ;)
