    when i took cammy photos

    Hm, I tried to post @ AD and it didn’t work. Publishing outage or something or another, let’s see if it works over here. I took a few Cammy pics. It was too late in the day for me to use my normal spot, the shady back patio, so I had to go around front… Luckily no one drove by…

    when i shared our mtac recap

    MTAC TRIP REPORT!! Thursday We left Memphis around 4:30 in the afternoon, and didn’t make it to the hotel until around 10. We got lost!!! I’ve been spoiled by staying in nice hotels the last two times I’ve gone out of town. One of those was a really nice Clarion (Claritin) in Gatlinburg, and I was expecting similar with this…

    when i was mad at the mtac hotel

    Well, until I finish my report (can’t now, mom’s on the computer I started writing it on), I’ll just say a few things. I hate the Claritin (Clarion). MTAC staff & everybody at the con were friendly, nice and made the whole thing worth it. They rock. I still can’t believe I won a prize in the cosplay! What did…

    when i won

    AHHHHHHHH I’m back. I’m tired. Not much to say right now, except I won Best Craftsmanship for Ruby Moon at the cosplay 😀 Didn’t sell much, but I had a lot of fun, spent a lot of money and talked to lots of nice people. I’ll have a write up for it soon. Unfortunately our camera is presumed lost right…

    when everything was 100%

    All costumes, 100% done. Gotta go to the bank and walgreen’s today, and back to the printer cause they screwed up my trigun print, and then to my aunt’s office to pick up some more money, and then to my aunt’s house to look for a piece of the Rinoa costume Cath thinks she lost there. Utena… I’m pretty satisfied…

    when it was halloween

    what the- why are only my posts from 17th and under showing? Oh well. Happy Halloween!! YAY~! Cath and I talked about this Saturday, and I think Ash and I have talked about it a while back. I want to have a Halloween Themed Party: Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Everyone has to be a character from it. And…

    Utena costume!

    I’m not going to go into how long it took to make those shoulder thingies. I’m not satisfied with them but I’m running out of time. Still gotta trim the wig a little, and recurl the curls next to the face. I forgot to wear my ring for this pic 🙁 I’d better not forget to take it with me…

    when i was working into the night

    Whisky A-Go-Go is taped before a live studio audience! I’m fixing to go post a couple of pics at Bite it Like a Little Monkey!. I’m about 10 minutes away from finishing this blasted CG. I hate CGing now. This is the only one I’m doing for MTAC, and the only reason I’m doing it is because I’ve been wanting…

    when we went to zooboo

    Woo. Today was busy. I have several points to hit on, so just bear with me! Got up, Mema came by and gave me the Hagrid. Dad and I watched Godzilla 2000 while we ate. Then we went and picked up my Cammy bodysuit (which I had made, we weren’t going to have enough time). It’s too bright blue but…

    when i took some pics

    It was very cold out today but I braved it anyway. I made a blue skirt out of some old blue material, put the buttons on real quick, and found the other stuff in my closet. It’s Cath’s old Rinoa jacket from Animazement, which she’s letting me fix up for Ash to wear at MTAC. I didn’t get a good…

    when nobody knew who andre was

    WHO IS ANDRE?! EVERYONE KNOWS WHO ANDRE IS!! How can you not know Andre?!?! Oh, and I forgot to mention, in regards to the previous poll (favourite thing to do in class), one of my favourite things to do in class IS eat. In fact that’s probably my favourite thing, since I don’t draw in class anymore. I go get…

    when i worked on a bunch of stuff

    I hate it when I update my elfwood galleries and it’s not listed on the update page! Oy! I’ve worked all weekend on stuff for the con. Plus I’m studying for a test I have tomorrow, eeeek. I’ve been working on a very big picture of Vash to sell, it’s about two feet tall and as of last night it…

    when i painted some shoes

    I painted some shoes today. I had these platform saddle oxfords that I bought like, 4 years ago and wore once. I figured they’d be perfect for my Utena costume, but when I pulled them out of the closet this morning, I realised the colours were opposite what they needed to be. Where it should have been white it was…

    when i was waiting for the mail

    All my stuff had better come in the mail today, if that mailwoman knows what’s best for her. I’m waiting on my fansubs, my red asuka shoes, and my ah my goddess bandaids. I decided I couldn’t live without the bandaids. I have Harry Potter bandaids, too. They glow. IN THE DARK. But not very well. Ach. Hunger cramps.

    Cammy & Utena progress…

    Sort of. I hope so. I’ll be back tomorrow sometime. I finished my Cammy wig today. I actually got the bangs to stand up the way they needed to. Wire+glue=freaky anime hair. I also finished my Utena wig today. Utena should have those huge spitcurl dealies, it bugs me when people don’t do that. That’s just her defining characteristic to…

    Ruby Moon wigs, etc

    Cath might get to come to MTAC with us, after all! She’s not getting to go on her Georgia retreat after all, so that means she has enough money and time to come with us to MTAC. She has to check and see what’s going on at school that friday, but she says even if she has to go class…
