Just here to tell the wire about my randomly odd life ^^; as I work my way through college life to teaching in Japan. The blog will be updated quite often, and when the vlog is up, the vlog will be updated weekly.

I know I've been neglecting this blog but I think I have sort of a good excuse.... and one not so good.
First of all, this being the not so good excuse part, I've been feeling a little down. I sort of lost motivation for a while there, and still sort of have. I'm the type of person who can't see past tomorrow so it's sometimes hard to envision where I want to be. I've been trying really hard to concentrate but for the life of me I can't keep my mind focused on what it is I want to be doing. Right now, I want to continue learning Japanese which I am somehow still failing at, start school, start the vlog, and be all otaku-ish.
When it comes to learning Japanese, I always, always, ALWAYS hit this wall! It's the same damn wall that I can never seem to get over. I get bored of what I'm doing and just don't want to do it anymore so I stop. I get lazy and don't want to practice or study and this is just a part of me that I'm trying very desperately to overcome. I always do good for about two weeks to a month and then hit the wall, at this rate I'll never learn this language that I've been trying to learn for years. I feel like I'm suffocated by my self and it's a very annoying feeling. Though, I think I've found motivation in someone though I won't say who. Lets just say I've always felt jealous of this person and still do, in all honesty as I am human and <_< the jealous type, but now I feel more admiration than the former. If they could do this than so can I, regardless of different occupational choices ^^. I feel like I can concentrate a bit more now.
School. I finally have orientation for college on Friday and I get to registrar on the same day. My sister, Ms. Plume wants me to take the same Art Appreciation class with her so I'm going to try and do that. School is something I hate as you can obviously tell I hate to learn or otherwise I wouldn't suck so bad at learning Japanese. It's going....to hurt to get used to going to school again. I actually really, really, really, REALLY do NOT want to go. At all. But this is the only way I can fulfill my dream so I'm going to bite my tongue and dive head first into this pool of suck.
The vlog. I can't wait to start this and have decided to start it in June. Not really on June first, but some in the first two weeks of June just so I can have stuff to talk about. And, to get a few things cleared up from the room that is soon to be mine. ^^ in case you didn't know, I haven't had a bedroom in years. I've slept in the living room on the couch for a good...oh, five or so years. My eldest sister, Ms. Tonks is moving out into an apartment with her boyfriend and that room gets to be mine ^^ so that has me very happy. I've never had my own room O: I'm going to have a ball!
Speaking of Ms. Tonks and her boyfriend, I have a feeling they're going to get married soon. Just, you know...word of mouth and beating around the bush sort of things have been going on. I'll let you (that is, the internet as no one reads my blog. Followers? Psh! I know such followers! (this is true o;))
So, now it's come to Otaku-ish. How so? I've decided, FINALLY on the final quota of my cosplay commissions. I'm going to buy two costumes in June, them being er...M and B. Lets go with that for now! The total is going to be around...(Note: I seriously got out a calculater as I fail at math) $290 with out shipping costs. I'm excited!
I'm also going to purchase a lot of drama box sets for my birthday gift to myself near the end of June. As for Ms. Plume's birthday as it is on the 9th, I told her she's going to have to wait a bit for it to come in. She doesn't read my blog so it's fine to say what it is ^^. I'm getting her seasions 1-5 of Sailor Moon <3. I know she'll love it!

Now, I mentioned having a good excuse, right?
Well, about a week ago I got bit by a spider. No big deal, it was just a dust-colored house spider and I'd been bitten by one before...on the same leg <_<;, anyway, what happened was...somehow, the bite got injured. Maybe I scratched it in my sleep or something but it got infected. Badly infected to the point that I couldn't walk for like three days before I went to the doctors. Needless to say, I'm now on strong antibiotics and painkillers as well as an ointment to treat the skin.
Let me explain to you how badly this hurt.
I could not sit down. I could not stand up. I could not walk and I could not lay down. I was really at a loss and was feeling really exhausted from trying to find SOMEWAY I could be without hurting myself.
“Why couldn't you walk with your other leg?”
x:
Er. Well, you see! Being me, my left foot (right leg had the infection) had suffered an injury via knife. I stabbed myself in the foot so I really couldn't walk on that leg either ^^. I'm not emo or anything, what had happened was I was loading the dishwasher and a knife fell out and stabbed me in between my little toe and the other toe next to it. Yeah...it didn't hurt until I started walking around and noticed bloody footprints on the floor. Talk about a late reaction!
So, that is my better reason for not updating this blog in a while.
Oh, I can walk now ^^ painkillers are awesome <3. But now it just itches a lot D:
–
Concerning Otaku Nation, I've neglected it as I was feeling really tired from the previous endeavor but I will have one updated on Sunday. I promise this. Cross my heart and hope to....fail a class. Not to die because ...well, I don't want to die O: I like living. It's fun ^^
–
Not much more to say except something that I've been wanting to tell someone for a while.
I'm getting my lip pierced. I'm cutting my hair again and I'm getting my chain. ^^ my father is going to hate me <3
I'm a super happy camper in the Otaku village right now, let me tell you!
Tonight I finally saw Blood on the Dance Floor live! I'd been a fan of them since they added me on MySpace. At the time, the only song they had up was 'Blood On The Dance Floor' and I loved it immediately. Now they have plenty more songs and a nice following to help them along to where they deserve to be :3 everywhere <3.
I was originally supposed to go with my friend Mr D but he couldn't go so I flew solo there in hopes of not being too awkward. I met a nice group of people in line, we'll call them Mr A, Ms B and Ms C. They were nice enough to help me when I totally forgot what I needed to get my ticket with which ended up being my I.D. And conformation number from the receipt since I got it online....the fucking liars, all I need was my god damn I.D. X:.
Why am I so angry about that? Because I spent nearly thirty minutes trying to get my phone to open Yahoo Mail that my phone ended up blinking red from being near dead BEFORE the shows even started Dx that meant no picture taking for me x:.
Regardless of this, with these new found friends who...were mainly younger than me save Ms B, I enjoyed getting turned into a sardine cheering, screaming, reaching and nearly dying <_< for the bands!
The first band that played was Stereo, a band that I do believe stated they were far from home, being from Canada. The crowed wasn't as energetic as they were for the following bands since I think the majority of us didn't really know much about them but they ended putting on a good show. At the end of it, nearly everyone agreed that the boys were good looking. I think given time they'll become pretty big as well.
Following them, the people I came to see took the stage! Blood on the fucking Dance Floor <<<333!
Dahvie Vanity and Jayy Von Monroe are so awesome in person. They're nice and more sexy than their pictures let on! They drove our little crowed wild, so much that I think I might have fucked some girls hair up pretty bad because of all the pushing that was going on. I felt bad buuut it'll grow back <_<;
Following BOTDF was BrokeNCYDE who I'd personally never heard of but do admit that they were pretty good. I spent most of this show sitting down, trying to get cooled down from the extreme body heat that had been going on moments before xD. I think if I hadn't had been pretty lightheaded I would have enjoyed their music a lot more.
And finally, what nearly everyone there had been waiting for. Jeffree Star took the stage and put on a hell of a good show. Me, as someone who doesn't really like or dislike him or his music, was actually getting all into it. I sat in the back next to the merch table for this show, since I was starving and still light-headed. I had a good view ;) lets leave it at that....--- His live made me nearly a fan. It'll take some more listening to make me an actual full fan. I was pleasantly impressed <3!
The first thing I did when we were let into the club (other than running to the bathroom <_<) was look for Jayy. I couldn't see him...since it was super dark, he was wearing black, and I'm blind. Mr A found him and directed me towards him. I got all giddy buuut I built up the huevos to ask him to sign a poster I'd bought of BOTDF for me <3. I did the same to Dahvie and took separate pictures with both.
By the way, Dahvie has the most epically awesome sleeve in the world. I didn't notice it before but right before I was leaving, I couldn't help but think it looked familiar...and for good reason! He has a sleeve with Final Fantasy VII characters on it. It was... awe inspiring xD.
Annd Jayy is super tall... I think he was the tallest guy there. x: literally.

Well, I'm pretty much fucking dead tired since I hadn't slept more than three hours compared to my usual fourteen plus so I'm going to leave it at this.
It's been an interesting set of days, I can assure you that!
On Thursday, I went to see Kick-Ass in theaters with my sister, her boyfriend and his sister. I have to admit that Kick-Ass happens to be one of the best movies I've seen in a while. It was witty, funny, down to earth and action packed! When I first heard about it, all I'd seen was the promotional images and immediately thought this was a hoax or some sort of gag movie. But as time started to get closer to its release and I began to see trailers, I found that it might actually be good. Usually when you see the testimonies of audience members walking out talking about how great the movie is you can't really buy into it but for this movie, I do believe they were not lying.
I enjoyed this movie so much that five minutes after it ended I wanted to see it again! I couldn't afford that so when I got home I just watched it on my Playstation 3 thus also showing it to my mother who also shared my enthusiasm for the film.
When I'd seen it in theaters, it was the second time that my sister and her boyfriend had seen it. They stated that they'd wanted me to dress up like Hit-Girl for Halloween since they think I remind them of her. At first I was kind of put off how they felt I acted like a little girl but after seeing the movie I don't really take it as so much of an insult anymore. Color me fickle, I guess!
I agreed with them that for Halloween I'd go as Hit-Girl. It should be fun :3

Truth be told I don't remember what it was I did Friday...at all. For the life of me I can't remember anything about that day. This is odd because I wasn't drunk or stoned...and I don't think I slept through the whole day so that's a mystery to me! Hopefully it was a fun day!
Today, on the other hand, I DID nearly sleep all day. I slept until about seven in the afternoon. When I woke up I was super hungry so I convinced my mom that she was too and had her buy Wienerschnitzel for everyone. I'm a wonderful daughter, aren't I? Making my mother who is on a diet eat when she isn't so hungry ~_~!
While we ate, we watched Sherlock Holmes courtsey of my PS3 <3 I love that thing ._. I'd be so desperately bored without it.
---
I think I only told Leo and my other sister, Miss Plume, about the Language Exchange so let me jot that down a bit.
I've always wanted to move to Japan ever since I was little, around the age of seven. I fully blame and thank my dad for raising me the way I am regardless of it being looked down upon by the norm. Who wants to be drab and normal anyway? In any case, I'm currently trying to pursue that dream by going to college, which I'd previously vowed never to do, and get my B.A in Education with an Associates in English. Why this combination? If you live under a rock, then you wouldn't know that you need that sort of combination vice versa or not, to teach English as a second language.
It is very hard to get a teaching job in Japan if you do not have a B.A. - and as I'm to understand you cannot even get a workers visa without one.
Of course, it would be a big help if I could learn Japanese before hand. I remember when I was younger I tried to learn it from books and ultimately failed because they taught in pure romaji so regardless of understanding cheap 2¢ phrases, I was still completely unable to read or write. There were a few years that I just stopped trying to learn another language save the forced upon everyone Spanish that I still am not very good at. Following this time, I, like my sister before me, wanted to learn German. It was during the time that this girl introduced me to a band I'd never heard of. Tokio Hotel was their name and they'd just come out with their first CD, Schrei which she had imported. The girl was German born and had to move to America with her father as he was in the military. I tried to learn German because I was infatuated with the band, and still am. Well...not so much obsessive anymore, but I'd still like to learn German one day... and Korean....and Russian... <_<
After that, I realized what I wanted to do with my life. I wanted to revive that childhood dream and move to Japan. At first, it was in my naivety that I would just work for a while, make about three-thousand dollars and just move out there. Unfortunately, that would be...impossible. There were too many rules and too many obstacles for me just to pack up and go. If I wanted to live there for a while and not just spend a few months there, I would need to suck it up and go to college. I, for one, hate, hate, hate, HATE school. I don't hate learning, I just hate school... and I hate having to PAY for knowledge...I hate that more than school probably.
Now, I'm going to start school sometime in June...as a Freshmen with this mini-mester. Unlike the little rich kids who have mommy and daddy pay for their education, I unfortunately cannot get my B.A.- in the standard four years or the elite three years. (What I would GIVE to get a B.A.- in three years ♥ ) Instead since it is just finAID strolling me along, I'll probably finish in six years...I hate the sound of that, I really do! I'm so impatient with this, honestly!
I'll be a busy person, you see, because I plan to get a full time/part time job once I get my schedule for school so that I can afford luxuries as well as possibly save up to shorten that darned six years of doom. I think... I'll be very tired by the end of this.
Anyway, back on point about learning Japanese. I have done self-study as well as video lessons that have worked to some point. I'm fairly certain I've memorized all of Hiragana and a bit of Katakana as well as some grammar and words. I've also got Rosetta Stone installed...let me tell you that when those people say this program is fun...they're lying... it is SO damn boring! So...boring...
Whilst searching the wire for my usual fix of information, I came across a site that advertised for people wanted to learn different languages in exchange for their own. Language Exchange is what it is called and I figured I might as well give this a try. I submitted my little add and at first thought no one would respond...a few days later I was e-mailed by someone saying they'd like to exchange with me!
For the sake of the blog, we'll name her Miss M.
Miss M is a native speaker from Tokyo who lives in Canada and wishes to improve her English. I'm a bit nervous to speak with her on Skype when we decide to talk to each other for the first time since I've never done this sort of thing before. I hope that I can help her improve her English like she wishes. I feel so obligated that I'm actually going to go ahead and refresh my self on the English language. It's obvious I know English as it is my native language but when I think about it long and hard I come to realize that I don't really know English fully. Sure, I speak it and type it daily but I've never fully known all the rules to this language, all the grammar and situational uses. I've never thought about all the words I don't know the meaning to or all the phrases and metaphors that don't make sense to me. If you were to sit down and think about your own language can you honestly look someone in the eye and say that you know it one-hundred percent? I know that I can't.
For the sake of being able to help Miss M with her English, I'm going to catch up on my grammar by reading Language books and guides. This will be good for me as well, since I do plan to teach English.
I'm excited and nervous at the same time!

Moving on, have you ever read something like a book or a comic that never continued or finished? Maybe a television show that got canceled? Did you ever want it to continue even though it looked as though it never would?
This happens to me all the time.
The latest of these happenings is with a manga that was canceled in December. I didn't think much about it then but the more I do and know that I've re-read it I realize that I want to know what happens!
I love the characters and I love the story so far so I'm actually sad that it's not going to continue.
The mangaka is named Amano Youichi and the manga is titled “Akaboshi – Ibun Suikoden”.
I'm so privy to this manga that I've already made plans to cosplay the lead sometime soon.
The point of this part of the blog is that I want to somehow write a letter to Amano Youichi asking him what happens. It's the sort of feeling that's embarrassing because it feels sort of wrong to do so. I'd feel rude writing and asking, “Can you tell me what happens next?” when I don't know him at all. But it's such an urge that I think I might sometime later if I see that it really isn't going to continue. Oh, the drama Dx!
---
Lastly, speaking of Cosplay I've finally decided what to do with the quotes I've gotten back.
First of all, cosplay is very expensive so I can't do all of them all at once so I've decided to split the list into a two year period.
I've decided to buy from three sellers:
Two, technically three, costumes from K for this year.
Three from Cat early next year (this includes the Ryuusei Taisou costume from Akaboshi).
And the wigs split between the two years for their respective costumes from B.E.E.
Totals for each would be...$435 for K/B.E.E.
And something like $770 for Cat/B.E.E. The following year.
These do not include shipping Dx
These are the leisurely things that I also need to get a job for :3 I have habits to support, after all!
Waking up at one in the afternoon is something I'm very familiar with, if not later. For a long time I've been a hypersomniac and it's kinda hard staying awake when you're constantly tired. That, and the fact that I yet have something to get up fore makes the days seem long and uneventful.
In MegaTen, I have finally decided to destroy Headdesk's build and cast out the DD. This means I'm in need of a crap load of Lethe bottlers and an Hourglass....and all my current equips have now become useless. That and grinding occultism on Face and Support on Head dry without Inc is kinda...a challenge. I've decided to get these two expertised out before even considering grinding Rapid on the J-server dry.
Speaking of the J-Server, there was supposed to be a new CP chip hack run but apparently it's bugged so...so much for that for now. Also, the new comps look really interesting if anything.
---
Something I haven't done in a while is go into a Yahoo chat room. I did just that today and was pleasantly surprised with the actual conversation that was held.
It started off with people not believing I was a girl regardless of the name Roy so I admitted that I was pretty bifauxnen and showed them this picture in which they said I was still too feminine to be a guy.
Well. That's nice xD
And with that picture came a very interesting cosplay discussion about how expensive it is and who does who well. A girl said I'd do good to cosplay L buut I don't want to ._. if I'm doing anyone from Death Note, it's most definitely 100% going to be Matt <3.
We also realized that there is a lack of male bots in the rooms. We assumed this to be sexist and figured that if we filed a suit against them on equal gender rights, we could probably win... Of course this would increase the amount of bots and in turn make us hated by all the Yahoo users. :3 Fail plan is Fail.
We then got into a very detailed and outspoken discussion on how down-hill Role Play has gotten over the years since the closing of the User Rooms.
YES, I did and sometimes do Role Play on Yahoo. I'm not ashamed.
Anyway, this discussion was very refreshing from the usual random babble that usually overtakes all of the rooms.
I hope to have more thoughtful conversations there ^^

I've already read two news stories that were entertaining since my last posting. Now I can't wait for Sunday to discuss them in Otaku Nation! One is rather funny ;3 and concerns the American President =D
I love how I can type here and pretend someone is reading for self...er... what's the word..I guess just venting. It's good for you to talk/type about what's happened and whats coming. It's rather relaxing if I do say so myself.
P.S. I noticed that I really HAVE played MegaTen for too long ._. I tend to use the phrases daily...like /orz and the like xD
Let it be known that I absolutely hate, hate, hate, HATE, HATE, HATE yard work and cleaning D< more than Kefka hates YOU!
Let's just say that I had to do a bit of both and in the end, I am in a very... bad mood because of it. Floating grass is not my idea of a good Monday...
---
This morning, I woke up from a very strange dream. I dreamt that I was back in High School and for some reason Bob Barker was coming to give a speech or something. For the life of me I could not get anyone to tell me WHY Bob Barker was coming to that school but everyone seemed excited so I just brushed it off. I woke up laughing, making my mom give me the usual "WTF?" look :3
I watched Moon Child again today. Regardless of how dauntingly long this movie is, I still love it. If you haven't seen it, I recomend it especially if you're a fan of either Gackt or Hyde. The story is very good and there is plenty of fan service ^^ I'm glad my sister was able to get it with TLA's release of Danger After Dark.
The previous was the live that Gackt, Lee, Taro and Zeny did to promote the Thearetical Release back in 2003. Hyde was meant to sing the song with Gackt, but I do beleive he was on tour with L`Arc en Ciel at the time.
---
Now, I'd like to start something I've been thinking of doing for a while. At least once a week, I'll scourer the Japanese and American news for something that might be interesting for us Otaku. I'll call it Otaku Nation since a friend of my suggested this ^^
I'll start with something that took place LAST week but it was big enough for me to add for this week since it is the first installment.
On May 2nd, 1998, 松本 秀人 died of what some think was an accidental suicide. If you don't know who Hide is, I'll give you a quick run-through. Hide was the guitarist for X-Japan. He also did a few solo albums, one of which produced the hit Pink Spider while with "Hide with Spread Beaver. Needless to say, he was a Japanese Rock Icon that passed way before his time.
May 3rd, 2010, over 35,000 people gathered to pay their respects to his grave in Japan. The article can be found here.

Everyone by now should know that the Japanese have a lot of different tasting sweets and snacks. Apparently, I'm wrong when I say "everyone" because a group of reporters recently found out about the strange array of Kit-Kat flavors that the Japanese offer. They took it upon themselves to taste a few of them and give their opinions. I have to admit, I really would like to try a few of them, especially the Raspberry Passion fruit ^^ -- More can be found here.
-
Chiemi Hori was put into the Guinness Book of World Records for creating the worlds largest Onigiri ^^ with a tawara-gata shaped pedestool of 5,555 individual onigiri. Well, technically its more like the worlds most onigiri on one plate buuut it's still awesome!
What's not awesome is all the complaining about how it was a big waist of food. Get over it, damn D< pissing me off! Reading the news apparently makes me mad ._.;
On a more..."Okay?" note, Tsukioka Aya created a skirt that can turn into a disguise...what does it turn into? A Coca~Cola vending machine...-_-;
"It is just easier for Japanese to hide. Making a scene would be too embarrassing. These ideas might strike foreigners as far fetched, but in Japan, they can become reality."
American side, it is known that OCRemix is making a Final Fantasy IX compilation CD among others things. Kate Covington, known as katethegreat19 on YouTube is submitting a new piece that was recently released on her channel. It is a cover of the Cleyra Settlement theme.
I personally like it, as I like most of her work. What I like most about the video is that we get to finally see her playing the instruments. You can tell she's nervous but it feels good to see her at work ^^
Embeded just for you 8D

Well, that's it for this Monday!..er, Tuesday morning :3, I'm still considering this Monday though ^^
Whoa it's been like...a while ^^; I have to admit I've been a bit lazy this week.
I put partial blame on my mother who was acting up this week, coming home wasted and being annoyingly drunk Dx so we didn't walk AT ALL this week. I made up a bit of that yesterday by helping my dad move into his house...which was a lot of work. I swear, my arms are still feeling a little limp.
Ugh I still have a headache...
---
In MegaTen, there is plenty of QQ'ing as usual. That why I like the J-server...it's so quiet...maybe...too quite <_<
No, but honestly, I'm actually grinding Occultism on Facepalm and Magic Control on Headdesk, both Inc-less so x_X it's a hassle xD. I may actually decide to farm after I get my Omikane's crystalized and go for full chaos on Face but that won't be for a while anyway. They're such stubborn brains Dx
---
Last night my sister brought me a DVD that her friend had kept from when Major Players closed down. It was a part of the Last Exile series so she knew I'd absolutely love it... which I DO! Last Exile is my most favorite anime ever, to the point that I've seen it in Japanese and English about ten times since 2003. That's quite a lot but I just love it, it's just so dramatic and well done. The only problem I had with it was that when Dio supposedly died, none of the other characters gave a fuck -_- but in the last episode, you can clearly hear Dio say, "Ascending!" and a promotional picture showed him greeting the rest of the characters in an after-the-fact sort of way.
That is probably the best AMV of Last Exile. So much, that I have it on my iPod =D
---
Finally, I was told that my FinAid Application was complete so that I am to call in on the 18th to see the progress... why the fuck is it taking so long? It's absolutely unprofessional that they say they'll call me the next day and don't. It's also bad that the woman who does it is never in! How many sick days can someone take before people begin to wonder what the fuck is going on?
I just can't wait to get the crap over with. I'm already exhausted and school hasn't even started yet :/ this is going to be a bitch, I know it.

Manga Wise, 天上天下 has sparked up the interest factor again. It's about time too, because I was actually starting to dislike the series because of how much concentration they had been putting on Souichiro instead of the rest of the cast. In the newer chapters, Madoka is finally being used. I was actually pissed about the fact that she hadn't appeared in a lot of the after-chapters. It was as if she'd been forgotten about but they're making up for that now, at least. I must admit, the +5 years Madoka is really cute ^^
OHHC is going into it's final volume so that's exciting! I love and hate when Manga ends because it's just that sort of event. You want it to end to know what happens but you don't want it to end because you like it so much. I just hope it has a better ending than フルバ. ^^

A few days ago my sister got in her 金子一馬 art book, volume one of two. You can tell that this volume was released much earlier as the character design and art of the demons is so very retro! It was fun looking at how the demons progressed or didn't change at all. My sister immediately notices that a lot of the demons were very oddly shaped like penis' and vagina's. xD she would notice that! But yeah, you have to admit that his are is just awesome.
She's ordering volume two soon, a 70$ book that is two-hundred pages longer and is more updated. My dad doesn't understand why we pay so much money for something we can't exactly read...as both volumes are in Japanese, but that's not the point! Just having his art books is so satisfying!

Well, I still have a few things to do before sleeping tonight like typing, dancing and trying to figure out a way to get rid of this headache and allergies without dying so
I cannot explain how happy I am to be able to play MegaTen again! Even though I totally fell out of the loop on both servers, I have to admit, I'm still having a lot of fun. I experience my first Ichi hack and have to admit it wasn't as horrifying as everyone was making it out to be. A kind player named Yuffie` easily solo'd it for me ^^, even if I didn't get my Inexperience Yaksini, I enjoyed it.
That is the latest Chu Chu kiss that I've done.
Ever since I'd gotten my first Kiss emotes, I've literally kissed a lot of Cu Chulainns ^^ so many that I can't remember them all. I used to have all the screenshots but my laptop had to be reformatted so like the bulk of them are lost to the deadzone D:
I seriously have fun in this game, even if I'm a fail player <3.
On the J-Server, I've started grinding rapid on the Hua Po's whenever I can find them as they are always getting owned by other people x_x! But I think I'll be around fifty when I finish grinding Rapid without Inc of Mastery :3 a challenge! I've also decided to take Facepalm seriously and start grinding occultism again. I'll play the American server for a few hours and the J-Server an equal amount of hours and hopefully have all my grinding done by....September? At least before the end of this year x_X

I got back the quotes for the wigs a few days ago and I love the prices. He's doing them so cheaply but they're real hair so I know they'll look good :3 I can't wait until I get back the quotes for the costumes ^^ I'm excited to see which one's I can run around in soon <3 of course...I know one of them won't be worn until I can get all this chub from my stomach D: since...he's always half-naked x_X
But I love him so I can't wait to dress up as him and distroy his character <333

For a while I've been wanting my sister to paint me a portrait of Setanta and Cu Chulainn and next month she's agreed to do it if I buy the canvas. I want it to be really nice, so I'm getting a rather big canvas for her. And when I say Setanta and Cu Chulainn I don't mean the models from MegaTen but a more naturalistic Celtic design. She's already painting her own version of Setanta, which looks really nice ^^ so I know she'll do well with this one!
Speaking of her paintings, she's going to 'try' and display at EPAC buuut knowing her, she'll forget and miss the deadline x( so I'm constantly trying to get her to draw and paint some stuff that would sell nicely at EPAC but she dislikes drawing Anime so...it's hard ^^ I hope she goes, though!

Even though I hated my new frames when I tried them on at the TSO, I have to admit that I'm rather fond of them now. I think I disliked them so much because they had had false lenses in them so I couldn't really see myself in them. I'm still a tad iffy on their odd shape, as they are like a rectangle that decided mid way that he wanted to be a triangle, but I'm used to them now. All that matters is that they're black framed so <3.
Well, that's all I've really got to say for today so,
