    when i was going to draw us

    OH! I forgot. I want to re-do mine, ash’s and cath’s pictures for lazy eternity, so I was going to draw each of us as a character. I was thinking either… Stick with powerpuff girls… me as blossom, ash as buttercup and cath as bubbles. LOTR girls… don’t know who would be who yet, but arwen, eowyn and galadriel. Hogwarts…

    when i needed business cards

    Ok, question: Which of my pics do you think I should put on my business card? This question is the reason I didn’t have a business card for MTAC 2 1/2. Or for Animazement 02. Or for Otakon. Or for Dragoncon. Or for MTAC Pi. I just can’t friggin make up my mind.

    when i was a poster child

    Hee! Look at that goob who is the “poster child” for Harry Potter cosplay on cosplaylab. I cleaned my room last night. I started at like, 10:30 and stopped by 11:30 cause that’s when the Buffy episode I was watching ended. Ha. Then I went to bed cause I was all tired, but ended up sitting there watching the rest…

    when i told people to go vote

    ahhhh go to cosplaylab.com and vote to keep non-anime inspired costumes there! that’s one of my favourite things about cosplaylab, searching for all kinds of costumes and seeing what all people have done. I don’t see anything in the term “costume play” that says “anime only”! I mean, yeah, wearing harry potter to an ANIME convention might be weird, but…

    Weird Habit

    I have this weird habit with new costumes – I don’t like to put them on before a convention. The closest I came was putting most of Shadowcat on before Dragoncon, but that’s just ’cause mom made me. I didn’t put all of Amidala on, or Ocha, or Urd, or Lina, or Lulu, or Xiaoyu, or Misato… etc, etc. I…

    Nervous

    (it’s a nerve inspired rant about Animazement… beware :P) I’m getting really really really nervous and excited. Next week!! It’s next week!! I’ve already started packing. Gathering up costume pieces and putting all my makeup together and setting it inside my big suitcase. I’m taking two suitcases, a big one on loan from my gramma and my regular one… and…

    when i had con dreams

    Last night I woke up at 4 AM. I don’t know why. I was kinda freaked out. I was sleeping in the living room, cause my cousin is over this week and he was in my room. So I got up and made my cousin switch places with me. It still took me an hour to fall asleep after that,…
