I won 3rd place (SonyVegas/Adobe/Ulead editing) in Wishinuponastarr's Special News Contest! I'm so happy! I never thought I would win a contest for MS videos. I thought mine was too not oober crazy editing like the other guys, but I got a 10 for creativity, 8 for song used, 9 for editing and 27 total as a score (out of 30). I'm so happy. I don't know what my prize is yet, but it doesn't matter. I'm so happy :3 Now my videos will be recognized a bit more when peopple watch my 3rd place entry.
Part 2 I got my blue belt today in Hapkido! I feel really happy about this too, because next test, I get to break boards. Except since I'm 14+, I have to break thicker boards than my brother Alex. I also get to learn skyfall. I can't wait. My bro and I also started going every weekday to Hapkido and I absolutely love martial arts now :] We go to take down and sparring on Tues/Thurs. And last Thursday, I beat Alex twice in sparring. haha, Wimp :3
Upcoming Stuff
I have a Adobe workshop with my Baron Banner FVHS newspaper staff at the LA Convention Center and I'm going to wear my new brown hat with ears I got at AnimeExpo at the LAConventionCenter just last Saturday. I love my new hat :3 I can't wait to see the BB gang agian. At least, some of them hehe.
I'm going on vacation to Lake Tahoe from July 14-18. I haven't gone on vacation with my family in a long time. We usually go every summer, but last summer, because of band, I couldn't (money). Because of gas prices, we will be driving up and staying in the cabin instead of taking the trailer. My first time being in a cabin. It'll be kewl =] MORE SWIMMING! My 15th Birthday is coming up on July15. Hehe 15 on the 15th. I already sent out details about that to the BDay Invites to my buddies :] I'll be celebrating it with my buds after I get back from vacation on the 19th. My annual piano testing is coming up (or as my teachers call it "auditions"). This year, I'm on level PA...I don't know what that stands for but I know last time I was in ID which was Intermediate D; so I must be in the advanced program. Now that it's summer, I got to focus on my piano playing more and, sadly, because of my procastinatin for not practicing a lot during the year, I have four songs to memorize anad test for rather than 5 or 7. So I'm in the ....district level? Iunno. The least I ever had was 5, which is district, and 3 is Local. 7=National; 10=International. Wish me luck in later July/early August.

Still really happy about the contest and my belt and I can't wait for upcoming stuff. Summer otherwise at the moment despite all the excitement is extremely boring at home. I'm not allowed to go outside when my parents are at work D: Well...excluding the backyard :] Hope you are all having a better summer than I am. BYE!~~
-Much love, Michelle Doan
