Limited Patience

So....Today I had my English AP test.  And, no, I'm not going to talk about the content.  That would make my test 'invalid' as they love to say while you're taking it.  No- I'm gonna talk about the girl sitting next to me.  The test is about 4 hours long, and in the large room with many table,  you are seated at your own small table to share with one other, who would sit next to you.  When we first started, my table sharer had not arrived, and I thought maybe I had gotten lucky, and would get the whole table to myself!  But...no such luck.  The girl came and took a seat next to me...  And so it began.  I'm one of those people, who likes no noise or nonsense during test taking.  I get distracted easily.  Well, I started hearing clicking noises... small but  high pitched sound, a continuous clicking set to an annoying rhythm...  I ignored it to the best of my ablility, which was pretty good actually.  BUT THEN...she moved her legs so that they were facing me, and she began to kick my chair on occasion, and even push it a bit.... I was deeply disturbed, and tried to move my chair so she would stop, but her legs stopped me from budging.  Then....she started reading loudly to herself, like some kind of raspy whisper...  Well, in the end, we both came out alive, but I really thought I might die from annoyance.  Okay, I'm done complaining.... Everything went great after that. 
   Here I have some pictures and things from today.  Some doodles.... I'm still working on that story.   Still not totally set on it, but I've been making some more characters, and the two men are some of them.  A picture of the Virgin Mary from the front of our church. I thought it was beautiful.

M'kay, so....it hasn't even been very long since I last wrote- but SOOOO much seems to have happened!  I got confirmed into the Catholic Church, and I feel like my faith has been saved.  I pray all the time now, I feel a complete happiness that I never have previously had- a feeling my teacher has said you can only get with faith.  And I have it!  I was losing it before- I never prayed, I doubted everything, my relationships were going down hill...but now, it's all fine.  As though my problems (most of them)  just resolved themselves on their own!  It's amazing.  And it's because of my teacher, I swear, he was truly inspiring.  I want to write his name, but I'll just have to give him credit as "Mr.P".  A wonderful, amazing teacher.  I'm sad that classes have ended now... :'( For religious reasons and because I have people I want to see... 
     ANYWAY, I've really gotten into the BBC show "Sherlock" with Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman.  It's a present day Sherlock Holmes, but I think it's just absolutely wonderful.  One of the co-producers is Steven Moffat, who also does Doctor Who, so the slightly similar elements make it even better.  http://www.thescienceofdeduction.co.uk/ This is a link to the fictional blog of Holmes from the series...after watching, I've become very interested in the habits of people, and how to read and deduce their actions and appearance... 
     This fall on CBS, a show called "Elementary" is coming out, and it's another modern day Sherlock Holmes, only he's in Manhattan.  I saw the commercial, looks alright, but the thing that's really got me is....that Dr. John Watson... Is now Dr. JOAN Watson.  I'm just wondering how they're going to make the transition of the traditionally male character into a woman.  They'll probably end up putting in some romance between them, and somehow I feel that would ruin it all... but I dunno, maybe it'll be an awesome show!  I'll just have to wait and see..

Emma and Friends...(hah)

Just a pic of some of the characters that'll be in the story..
