What better to start off the New Year than a meme?

Jacked from mergle who drew me this. XD

1.Comment here and I'll pick LJ interest(s) and draw a picture using the almighty MS Paint.

2. You have no say in what I draw for you, or in how much it will suck!

3. Put this in your journal along with the pictures other people have drawn for you.

Reminds me of how in AP CompSci Lucy and I worked on a random generator that did tarot readings, and originally we wanted to render cards in simple vector art. So to simulate this, we started drawing really simple stick figure kinds of cards in Paint. It was quite hilarious, but I found some of them kind of charming, too. But, after all, there is a commercial stick figure tarot deck.

Oh yeah, and Happy New Year.

*back to packing*

ETA: erichowens drew me this.

Like parent like child...

So the original plans to drive down tonight changed into mooching a ride from one of my friends I went to see today, who's working near UCLA. I guess it'll be nice to stay home another night and get some more sleep, although that means I don't have much time to adjust back to Tech before classes start again.

Anyway, I forgot to mention in talking about Taiwan how interesting it was to see all of my relatives' families, and observe how the children were so much like their parents. In appearance, of course, but each family also had their own personality, their own approach to hospitality, and things like that. They were all very nice and normal and all, but all unique and different, too. I wonder if my family appears that way to outsiders as well.

It was kind of the same way when I visited my friends today, although I guess it becomes less apparent with time, since my friends are all graduated and working now, and not so tied to their parents.

Alright, well, still have to finish packing, since we ended up not only staying for "afternoon tea" but all going out for dinner as well.
