Hello people!
I have some exciting news, some sad news and some just plain pathetic news...
Firstly, the exciting stuff. I got to meet Jewel Staite!! She's like one of my favorite actresses ever, just behind Claudia Black. I met her this weekend after she did a panel and got my pic with her, as well as an autograph. Even talked for a minute with her, which was sooo cool!! Anyway, all the panels are on YouTube for anyone interested (my username is treehillbabe_xo ... Not that different). It was pretty awesome. I geeked out all weekend from it!!!
Second, I was baptized last Sunday (the 26th). 
So that's incredibly exciting!!! I'm very happy I was finally.
Third, I'm out of exams!! So I have a whole month off After that, I have a month long class for screenwriting. I'm looking forward to that. It's being taught by a member of the screenwriter's guild and she's won awards and such. Which is awesome. And only 15 kids in the whole school got in and I was one of them!!
Fourth, the sad news. I'm upset cuz my best friend is going to be in Iran for the next month and I'm not going to be able to talk to her at all :'( As if her living across the country wasn't bad enough!
Fifth, the pathetic news. I got a terrible grade in geology. Seriously, it was depressing. I actually cried a little on the exam because it was so hard! Honestly, I didn't even know some of the scientific names they used, let alone what period in which they first appeared. Heck, I couldn't even tell if they were one-celled organisms, fish, animals or plants!
Which reminds me, we're seriously all decended from reptiles?! How weird is that?!
Ohh, totally nerded out this weekend and bought tons of geeky stuff. It was amazing. My room is filled with SGA, SG-1, Firefly and Farscape stuff. Too bad Farscape stuff is so hard to find now... 
Oh well, gotta love that show! Seriously, Claudia Black and Ben Browder have amazing chemistry! And the whole show was sooo clever!!
Anyway, that's my little update for now. For a more frequently (as in like 100 times more frequently) updated blog, visit valamckeller.wordpress.com
