Haha! Nice man! Very nice! Libraries are great for hanging out in when it's hot. I found some stuff on vending machine hacks, but the ones at my school are retarded so I could never get it to work. Of course, it could be me, lol. They (the machines at my school) don't work anyways, so meh, haha

Thanks WolfMontana! I'd like to have another go at it. See it I can't get it more symmetrical this time, lol.

Oh! BB! I remember your moonstone idea! I'll go scan pictures of a ring I made that's loosely based on that! I hate the way it came out, but it didn't drop my grade so meh, haha.

Here it is I've decided I don't hate it because it looks better than I remember it looking (go figure ). The material's silver and it was cut out of a thin sheet/plate. The stone isn't moonstone, it's a white cat's eye stone. I'm sure there's another name, but I don't remember what it is.

Okay, the pointless view (I keep telling myself there's something to it, so bear with me, lol)


The side view. There's a crescent moon cut out of each side


And the front

Whoa, that's pretty intricate!

Wow, fun classes! Archery and jewerly making Not being nice either - that's really beautiful work I love the moon one ALOT.

That one with the trinity design is Celtic, so I figure you might like seeing that one.

When you're in class, you'll have to make three full moon moonstone designs, one for you, one for WolfMontana and one for me, ha, ha.

Maybe you can get extra credit for making WolfMontana's and mine?  (ha, ha)

Thanks Lynz!

Haha! I'll have to do that BB! I'm sure I could work out something with the teacher. We're practically like this *crosses claws* lol!

It's just a regular school. It's not an archery class though. If you take Independent Study in art, you can choose to make a bow, and then the teacher takes you outside to shoot it It's sweet.

We don't, however, have a lot of AP classes. We have AP English, Ap Calculus, and AP Art. We have Honors English, and it's *exactly* like regular English. I don't think they even expect more out of you. In AP English, we read Ovid's "The Metamorphasis", Shakespeare's "Midsummer Night's Dream" and "Macbeth", Dante's "Inferno" (I'm taking that we're just reading the "Inferno" bit and not the whole thing), pieces from Chaucer's "Canterbury Tales", pieces from Joyce's "Ulysses", "My Antonia", Sophocles' "Oedipus Rex", and I don't know what else. But here's the thing: We're not smart enough to take any of this home and read it. The teacher even told us the first that it's hard literature and he's not assigning any of this to read at home. Some of this is difficult literature, but really. I hate the way my school runs classes like that, but I love the other classes, like jewelry.

Gah! And I thought my school was having problems with money! The scoreboard on the soccer field hasn't worked in who knows how long! I suppose we do alright though.... We're the only highschool in the county, and Moab is pretty much the only city in the county that draws in any money. Spanish Valley kinda does, but it's like a sub-section of Moab or something.... and then there's Castle Valley. They won't allow any businesses to be built out there. In fact, they hardly allow anything to be built out there except houses! And Thompson just sucks. It's surprising people live there because it looks abandoned! Cisco's the same way. And then I think La Sal isn't actually in Grand County but in San Jaun County, but if it is in Grand, there's no businesses there either. We thrive off sucking money from tourists, lol

hehee
