Hi! I'm Vanessa, fourteen years old as of a week ago, from the Central Valley, California.
This is my Saturday, November 29th which I spent in San Miguel, El Salvador, visiting my father and celebrating the 50th anniversary of Carnaval.

This is my first adiml. New friends always welcome!

I forgot to post this a few days ago...who knows if I will actually succeed but it's worth the try. Some task ideas I got from others on my flist + the internet, others simply my head.

The Mission: Complete 101 preset tasks in a period of 1001 days.
The Criteria: Tasks must be specific (ie. no ambiguity in the wording) with a result that is either measurable or clearly defined. Tasks must also be realistic and stretching (ie. represent some amount of work on my part).

Start Date: September 3, 2008
End Date: June 1, 2011
events completed will be striked through with a date.

( and now...the tasks! )
EDIT: sorry I forgot to put this in a cut earlier :|

it's quite nice outside today. it's not too hot, or too cold. perfect shorts-and-a-tanktop weather. the sky is really pretty too. there are a lot of clouds: not just the thin, wispy types, but the big, fluffy marshmallow/cotton ball types. we hardly get those here. it makes me want to go out with my camera and suck it all in. or go out with my canvas and capture it with a paintbrush. or maybe just go outside and absorb it, and feel it, experience it for once. yes, i think that's what i'll do.
