    when i had a million projects due

    Ew. Ok I’ve been told I look like a few celebrities in my time, like that girl from the Lost in Space movie. That one I just kinda was like, eh, whatever. But this one I just heard…. Ew no! No I don’t! I tried to stay up all night last night working on the poster, but gave up around…

    when i wanted to make t-shirts

    I have 4 blank t-shirts. One is exactly like the one I put dumb LOTR panels on, except it’s white with black stitching. The other three are fitted white shirts with coloured sleeves and collars. (one is black, one is blue and one is yellow) What should I put on these suckers? At least one is going to be another…

    My first photo at a convention

    So… my first convention. Animazement 2001. I get to the hotel, we get checked in, and I toss on my Selphie costume. I’m so excited I don’t bother with my hair, and (as usual in those early days) didn’t bother with makeup. I stepped out of the elevator, not knowing what to expect but excited beyond belief to be there.…

    Doppleganger

    Apparently I have an evil doppleganger. People are always saying to me, “I saw you at -con I didn’t go to-!” At MidSouthCon, 4 seperate people said they saw me there last year – I didn’t go last year! It’s kinda creepy. I just nod and smile when people say something like that. I really must have a doppleganger. Maybe…

    when there was a baby for sale

    Last night I dreamt that my aunt had come over, and my mom said, “OK, Kell, let’s go.” I’m like, “huh what go where?” And she said, “To the play.” “It’s next weekend,” says I. And she told me that no, it was also this weekend. They were having it two weekends this year. Since my poster wasn’t ready they…

    when i took some school photos

    To go with my old RAT ghost story… I took some pics of the school tonight. Second floor – dark! It was creepy up there, and super quiet. I didn’t stay long. Stairway – the back stairway to the second floor. Prop Room door – this is one of two ways into the prop room. See that door up on…

    when ozma changed in every picture

    Mom pulled out an album of old pictures… man. I look SO much like my dad. If I had my scanner hooked up, I’d scan some of them. Alas, alas. Good news tho, I’m ‘inheriting’ my aunt’s printer. Which is a fine printer, it’s just not working very well right now. Between dad and myself I’m sure we can get…

    when antiques roadshow was coming

    OH my gosh I didn’t update my sketch journal yesterday!! *smacks forehead* I sat down in the chair in the living room and fell asleep. I was dead tired yesterday. I got shocked monday morning. I touched the metal prongs on the plug when I was unplugging my computer. It was weird! My arm from the elbow down was sore…

    Ozma updates

    Random updates: I bought all my material for Ozma Monday. $95 worth, blegh ;;; Started fooling with my Phoenix wig. I hope to have them both done by Akon. I’d like to finish Ozma in the next week or two, before it gets too hot, and take it out to the Dixon for photos. anyway-

    when akon worked out perfectly

    Perfect!!! When I’m in Dallas for Akon, there’s going to be a Guitar Festival the same weekend. Anime con for me, Guitar festival for dad. It’s perfect! Almost too good to be true! I’m really glad. I know Dad gets bored at these things with me, so he can go have fun at the guitar festival instead of hanging around…

    Contacts

    I know I want to get contacts for my Phoenix costume. Thing is, I can’t decide which I want. The character generally has just white eyes, but I wanted something cooler, something related to fire. My price range is $250-$300. I’d like to get something I could use again, also (since I’m spending so much!) Look here Which one do…

    Upcoming Plans

    Is it wrong, oh so wrong, that I want to go as Marty McFly from Back to the Future? There are a couple of anime based costumes I want to do sometime next year. Belldandy’s battle outfit – possibly an alternate colour Princess Jupiter Paine (don’t know which Paine yet) Mikako (Paradise Kiss, Miwako’s older sister) I think there was…
