when you complete your minor
It seems to me that when you complete your minor, bells should go off and balloons and confetti should fall from the ceiling. But I guess that’s just me. Ash and I hung out today and did some costume stuff. Watched ROTJ. Then I went with mom and dad to the first meeting of what will hopefully become the Millington…

when the bugs attacked
I forgot to mention this is my costume journal! On saturday, dad was helping us with some costume stuff in the kitchen when all of a sudden he gave a shout and pulled his t-shirt off! He said something was biting him. I looked over and saw the culprit still hanging onto his shirt. It had bitten/stung him in 3…

when there were boys loitering
Lately I’ve been having a good time going around telling people “Hey, you know, I think you’d belong in Slytherin.” It gets people so riled up! It’s quite funny. Last evening I was going out to ride my bike, but I got out there and saw there were 4 or 5 boys just hanging around the end of the driveway.…

Large buttocks are pleasing to me, nor am I able to lie concerning this matter.

when i love lucy made me uncomfortable
I hate the episodes where the Ricardos and the Mertzs (Mertzes?) fight. It makes me so uncomfortable. It’s like watching your parents fight.

when i was officially 501st
whee! I’m officially a member of the 501st Legion now. I feel so important! I am reading all my Harry Potter books again. I’ve read all of them except PoA multiple times (not including Order of the Phoenix, because I havent even made it through that one all the way once… I stopped first time I read it). So right…

when i needed to organize
I really really feel like organizing something. There are two things I need to be working on – either organizing and getting together costumes, or cleaning my room/”unpacking” from San Diego (nothing is left in the suitcases, they’re just laying all over the floor in my room with a ton of crap on top of them–it’s a disaster area). But…

when i couldn’t concentrate because dcon
Two commercials I absolutely hate: Revlon commercial with that ‘i believe in love’ song. I hate that commercial, mostly because that song makes me want to rip my ears off… a Some jeans commercial. I don’t know what it’s for. Maybe for a department store sale or something, but it’s this woman walking down a hall to a version of…

Ozma, Amidala and other updates
Lessa: Everything is finished except a few little details. I’m going to finish it tonight. Masq. Costume: Finished except for the headpiece, which is underway. Hermione: Still need to iron the pleats back in, but that’s it. Amidala: I got a wig, otherwise I haven’t done anything else. I redid my Belldandy antenna yesterday. They look *so* much better. A…

Ozma, Hermione and other Progress Pics!
Pictures! my “secret” masquerade costume is ozma, which anybody who has been around my site or my cosplaylab profile would know I’ve been planning on doing for a long time. Ash and I decided we wanted to keep it under wraps until dragoncon though, so I’ve stopped mentioning what it is. Anyway, I started on it back before akon but…

when i was worried about our dcon room
I have been very worried about paying for the Dragoncon hotel room. Comic Con was really hard to pay for, and only having 2 paychecks between the two cons I knew was going to be hard. So I’ve been thinking and plotting trying to figure out how to get enough money back on my Mastercard in time for DC, so…

Furry
Indy likes the fur I bought for Lessa. She loves it so much I’m going to have to buy her her own to sleep on, lol.

when i went on a nostalgia bender
For my He-Man/She-Ra loving friends…! X-E’s 1985 and 1986 Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade Coverage – besides all the wonderful Rainbow Brite, Care Bears and other weird 80’s stuff that appears in the parade, you have to check out the video at the end of the live action He-Man/She-Ra float. Simply awesome. By the way, screw the fact it’s hot – I…

Hermione, Lessa, Ozma, and Padme progress
quick trip to hancock’s today, and I got my dark red lining for my PoA cloak, some green ribbon, and some really awesome wolf-looking fur for the lining of my Lessa costume. I don’t want to cut it up! I want to use it as a blanket x_x It’s so snuggly!! So, dragoncon to-do list… Masq Costume: 75% Main dress…

when i got a gryffindor sweater
Why the heck do my pajama pants have pockets? What do I need pockets for while I’m sleeping… I got my new gryffindor sweater and it kicks butt. I wish it were cool out so I could wear it.

when i had no point
Ugh. I have been trying to get stuff ready for this thing I’m doing week after next… it’s time consuming and tiresome… on top of trying to get ready for Dragoncon. AUGH. Don’t even mention to me the fact that school starts back 2 days before Dragoncon. That’s not even on my radar, and it won’t be until September 7…

Lessa fabric
Back at easter when I was here at my grandmother’s, I found a bolt of brown vinyl that I wanted for my Lessa costume. I didn’t get it because I figured if they had it at Hancock in Jackson, they’d have it in Memphis too. Well they didn’t, nothing even close. So since I was up here in Jackson this…

Sketchblog: Starfire
At work, Kevin wanted me to draw a picture of him. So I did. He had no idea he looked like Starfire. (Done with the only colour pens I had available.)
