Description I hope you never lose your sense of wonder,
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger,
May you never take one single breath for granted,
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed,
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens,
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.

I hope you dance....i hope you dance.

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance,
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Livin' might mean takin' chances but they're worth takin',
Lovin' might be a mistake but it's worth makin',
Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter,
When you come close to sellin' out reconsider,
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.

I hope you dance....i hope you dance.
I hope you dance....i hope you dance.
(time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along,
Tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder where those years have gone.)


That is the song I listened to while drawing the picture.
The petals are phail *flail* Everything else matches, though

I have a very pouty lip right now *was bawling her eyes out earlier*... I missed my boyfriend's call... he's in boot camp...

--ART BELONGS TO ME! NO STEALING FOR YOUR CRAPPY LITTLE OC'S! D8<--

Shiiiiiinyyyyy! 8DDD
And it IS the same. When someone you love is far out of reach, it hurts all the same.
Do you get to visit them in like the summertime at all? <:]

That is an amazing piece of work, Shortie. I love it! You keep getting better. XD

And I'm sorry to hear about you missing that call, but don't worry, he'll call again. And boot camp doesn't last forever. :3 Keep the spirits high!

Thank you so much! Am I really??? o3o

It's okay. I'm well over it. I talked to his mom (whom he hasn't even called! I think when you go to boot camp, you only get one call that's less than 3 minutes to whoever you love to tell them your address... and I told him to call his mother.. AND HE PICKED ME! DX)

Yeah.. It doesn't. I'm flying down to TX in March to see him for his graduation.

You indeed are. ^^

And yeah, my cousin went to boot camp and he said the calls there are super short. It's like prison. Honestly, I don't know why the US army treats people who volunteer to train to help defend the nation so horribly. Hard conditions or not, we're not a country of hardcore gorilla warfare bastards. We don't need to be so cruel to our defenders.

Boot camp, regular old training camp for the army, none of it matters. >_< Military organizations. Suck. Ass.

This is a really cool picture! The highlights and everything are really well done and I think the petals are good too! The hair and her eyes are my favorite parts

I'm sorry you missed the call I hope you can talk to him soon.

MissShortie In reply to kamiiyu [2009-01-19 21:42:22 +0000 UTC]

Thanks!
I'm super glad you like it! 8DD
The highlighting was a ton of fun...
and making everything the same color tone like she was outside at night was quite the challenge! OHGOD! The PETALS! D8< Those came from hell, I swear!

And yeah, so do I.
I have his address, now, so my mom is taking it to my cousin (who went to boot camp on the same base) to see if it's right.

That is beautiful! I love the dress and the petals and the whole thing! Theway it's drawn, it really does look like it's windy. The petal shadows on her are a really nice touch.

What's the song?

Do try and cheer up!

MissShortie In reply to haos-shaman-queen [2009-01-19 21:45:20 +0000 UTC]

Thank you!! *clingage*
The flowy dress thing was a challenge from that angle.
And thanks! The petals came from hell, I swear! XD

The song is "I Hope You Dance" by "Lee Ann Womack"
It's my dad's favorite song (and is mine, as well). The song speaks volumes.

and I will. I have his address now, so I'll write him hundreds of letters. It's week 1 of 8... gah. 7 more to go!
