when i decided to go to akon

Man, who is not thinking here? I found cheapass tickets for Akon, so I’m going this year even after I said I wasn’t. But they were sooooo cheap! Anyway – I made my reservations and everything before checking, and turns out it’s the same weekend as HP 3 opening šŸ™ So I’m going to be at the stinky con instead of going to the movie with my friends. maybe there will be some cosplayers at the con going I can attach onto. If not I’ll make dad take me.

I made a new journal -> kelldar.livejournal.com. Having all my random costume chatter on that little tiny blog window on the cosplay page was too annoying, so it’s being moved to that livejournal. page updates for the costume page will continue on the blog.

We leave for Paris at 5 PM on thursday afternoon. They’ve got me sitting apart from people I know on the Detroit-Paris flight… umm no. I get airsick if I sit next to strangers. I’m not riding for 11 freaking hours next to a stranger. Anyway, we are going to London on that following tuesday. I’m having problems with packing – our teacher is telling us only one suitcase now, although when we called northwest they said two… one would be impossible. We’re having to pack winter clothes for 9 days… plus art supplies… plus cameras etc… and then whatever we bring back? WHATEVER ONE SUITCASE! I don’t care if I have to pay extra to have two… one is just not going to cut it.

Despite all that complaining… I’m in quite a good mood actually… sitting on the living room floor with my computer is nice. Getting used to the keyboard, finally. I’ve got just about everything on it… just need to move my MP3s from my aunt’s computer to Groucho. I made a wallpaper for it, because apparently no one makes 1440×900 desktop pictures. I just took all the big LOTR pics I had on my computer and spliced them together… but the colours in it make me happy.

I just realised that my last play poster is not in the gallery. Did I upload an old file when I updated last, or did I just forget it? I dunno.

We’re having an Oscar party here tomorrow night. I have no idea who is coming. Cath asks if we can have it at my house. I say sure. Then I just sit back and leave the rest to her…
