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…

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 & Utena updates, and etc
My Ruby Moon costume is now half finished… worked a little more on Utena last night, too. I hope I typed it right… I did this a while back for stress relief and it sat a long time without a background, which I finally finished… um, 3 or so weeks ago? I think I’m losing my touch CGing, out of…

when i went horse back riding
We actually went horse back riding yesterday. I haven’t been in years. I think my horse’s name was Whiskey, seriously. LOL! He was a nag! I know no one really cares, but costume update: We got the sewing machine fixed (for the 3rd freaking time). My Ruby Moon skirt is nearly done (and I put the finishing touches on the…

when i took photos of things
Urk… kellilla.com mail server is still down (it started last night). Claudia, if you see this, could you forward the last email my dingo address? I updated the sketch blog early this morning, and Lazy Eternity late last night. If you don’t wanna go over to lazy e, here are all the new pics plus a few non cosplay ones.…

when I got stuff in the mail
WOW! So much fun stuff in the mail today! First off, I got the Sailor Moon wig. Ok, so this didn’t come in the mail, I went and picked it up from my aunt’s office. But it’s lovely. Such a pretty shade of blonde. It’ll work well for both my Halloween costume and Cath’s Sailor Moon costume from this yeah…

when i planned for mtac
Ha, ha, ha! We went over to Ash’s grandparents and had dinner last night. Then we met up with my aunt and Kristie to see Cats and Dogs. It was cute… I liked the Ninja cats and the Russian cat. I’m going to reserve our room at the hotel for MTAC tomorrow. We learned some things at Animazement (and from…

when i was working on ruby moon
Urk. I’ve been so busy lately. Some summer so far. Actually, my parents took me to see AI again last night. It was a nice break from working all day. It was just as interesting the 2nd time around, and I noticed some things this time that I didn’t last time. We also went and bought fabric for my costume…

when we cleaned the attic
Yesterday was weird. I had the day off, but I since I was house-sitting/watching my cousin/cat-sitting, I was over at my aunt’s house that night, and had to get up early to take my cousin to school. After dropping him off I came home and fell asleep on the couch. I knew my mom had the week off, she’s on…

when I made a costume decision
Ok, I’m doing Beatrix and Milly, but I need a 3rd. I ran through the choices… Sailormoon costume: Did one already, don’t really want to do another. Sailor Lead Crow might be fun, but a pain to make AND a pain to wear. Out. CardCaptor Sakura: I’m not cute enough to be Sakura. Plus I hate wearing dresses, especially feminine…
-
when we decided to cosplay
Catherine and I want to do costumes together again this year, but we can’t figure out what. Here were our ideas… Sailormoon: We did this last year, so we don’t want to do that again (tho we did think about Aluminum Siren and Lead Crow, but I don’t really want to wear something like that! I mean, it’d be cold!…

when i was being tested
AUUUUGH!! I’m leaving Saturday and I still don’t have my MOB sub done~!! I’ll have all day tomorrow to do it, but still!! All I’ve got is the sketch… geez… And I know I’m like, being tested or something. My Card Captor Sakura 2nd volume came today, so I’ve had to force myself NOT to watch that and to try…

when i can’t make up my mind
I’m really, really thinking of dumping either the Milly costume I was working on or my Utena costume. I’m not very far in either…. see, now I really want to go as Beatrix from ff9. Yeah! Whatchu think?
