			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">I should be sleeping now or studying but I wanted to add a post really quick. I made a new painting Saturday and I finished it yesterday. I&#8217;m going to include that in the art show. Even though it took a short time to finish I still took a lot of time painting it during those days, I finally learned to be <em>patient </em>when painting. It&#8217;s a painting of three onions, garlic and a cucumber on a white sheet, it looks real traditional but then there&#8217;s also&#8230; an Ugly Doll. I put it in because it doesn&#8217;t fit at all which I thought would be funny. I know.. Ugly Dolls are overrated (and &#8220;in style&#8221;, blech), even Sasha and Malia have them! But I got them when they first appeared and I still think they&#8217;re awesome anyway, I wish I had the whole collection! But they&#8217;re so expensive&#8230; So back to the painting, I&#8217;ll post it up here once I get a good picture of it.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">After only 2 days the cucumber rotted and burst x[ It was really gross. Its juices (which were like cucumber guts) came out and dirtied the sheet so I had to take down the whole setup. Thank goodness I was done, tee hee.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I put some of my business cards in the Blick doorway where a bunch of fliers and things are. Yes, the business cards got here a few weeks ago, yay. I&#8217;m going to do that more often in places that have sections like that. Hopefully it works!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Eee the days are flying which is great! I know no one is reading this but it&#8217;s nice to write somewhere sometimes. I had my lunch at wholefoods today, I love the stuff at their buffet! Anyway, I was unlazy enough to paint today, and I decided to paint these organic eggs that were in the fridge (I don&#8217;t eat eggs but it doesn&#8217;t hurt to leave them on a table for a while xD) I found the whole thing too boring so later I took out one egg and got a carnation and put it in. I took a picture from far away since it&#8217;s not done xD</p>
<p><a href="http://maggycheco.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/DSCN28111.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-122" title="DSCN2811" src="http://maggycheco.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/DSCN28111-768x1024.jpg" alt="" width="212" height="283" /></a></p>
<p>So as most of you know I&#8217;m an Agnostic Buddhist, Agnostic as in I don&#8217;t believe in a god existing at all, I find the idea crazy, but I do understand that I could be wrong and I do understand why most people believe in god and their reasons are real reasonable most of the time. I&#8217;m not intolerant of other religions, religion is fascinating but unfortunately there&#8217;s always some group of extremists in most religions. And I love discussing religion! Very much, it&#8217;s so interesting. Anyway.. I found this article and I found it pretty interesting. I was raised a catholic and I even read the bible so when I switched to buddhism at 14 I started reading about things the buddha said. I noticed that him and Jesus said and believed in VERY similar things. Buddhism existed before Jesus was born so I was thinking, maybe Jesus studied Buddhism in some way (during is &#8220;lost&#8221; years), if not then it&#8217;s one heck of a coincidence. I guess I wasn&#8217;t alone in that thought! x] But the one who wrote this seems obviously more knowledgeable about the subject.<br />

<p>I, Magdalena &#8220;Maggy&#8221; Checo, was born in Manhattan on August 11th 1990.  I grew up in Astoria and will move back there soon! My dad is an artist which is why I discovered my talent early since I got a very early influence in art. I want to be an artist (hopefully successful!) more than anything but art can&#8217;t pay bills. When choosing a career I wanted to work in art but also with other things I love like math, engineering and just building things, so I decided to become an architect and I can&#8217;t wait to be one.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve been an Agnostic Buddhist ever since I was 14.  (Agnostic- not that I&#8217;m unsure that God doesn&#8217;t exist, I&#8217;m very sure God doesn&#8217;t exist and my mind probably can&#8217;t be changed about that, but I know I&#8217;m a human who can make many mistakes, so from that I am an agnostic and not an atheist). Enough about religion! I do yoga and I love Japanese food (especially sushi, natto and pickled cucumbers :]), I love Japanese food so much that I&#8217;ve learned to make some of it at home. I love roller coasters and ice skating and many other fun family friendly things. I hate parties, and clubs. Most of all I&#8217;m a Beatlemaniac, a bookworm, a heck of a beatnik and a fan many many very geeky  things.</p>
