                <description><![CDATA[ Accounts, that is!<br /><br />I'm following in the (very fast, she's a runner) footsteps of <a href="http://cosplayaerith.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/c/o/cosplayaerith.gif?2" alt=":iconcosplayaerith:" title="cosplayaerith"/></a> and switching accounts. I don't really like using this name because I no longer cosplay JUST Yuna, the name is 3 years old and just no longer relevant to my costumes, stories, or artwork. <br /><br />I've already gone through and deleted most of the deviations on this name and will be uploading the important ones on my new account. I left some of my IDs and a tutorial in case people still need to refer to it.<br /><br />In light of this, I'm moving to a different account. Everyone that I'm watching on this account I'll watch on my new account, so watch out for me! <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> If you're watching this name and have time, please watch my new account, as I will no longer be using this one for anything.<br /><br />My new account can be found here: <a href="http://spottablemouse.deviantart.com">[link]</a><br /><br />Please don't reply to this journal.

                <description><![CDATA[ LUCKY ME! <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" />  I have internet. I thought I'd be out for another week, maybe longer, but I guess I got lucky.<br /><br />I'm thinking about commissioning myself to do cosplay costumes. I've offered my services to several people in the past who turned me down (due to lack of cash flow, understandable), and a few for free. <br /><br />Unfortunately I can no longer offer my services for free, as one too many people have taken advantage of this. Too often have I sunk myself into making a costume, buying the wig, materials, etc., only to find out on my own that the other person doesn't want to wear/can't wear the costume anymore. I'm sorry  - I used to be okay with doing this, but I can't afford it anymore.<br /><br />I like to think my own costumes are pretty detailed, and I know I'd be able to put that same effort into a costume for another. My plan is to charge an initial deposit of $30, which will go towards supplies and whatnot, then the rest would be calculated based on the complexity, and how much time I had to put into it.<br /><br />Before I decide to go into this, though, would you hire me??<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ EDIT: Alright kids. I do sincerely thank all of you for your help. I don't have enough time to go thru and individually thank all of you, but without your help I wouldn't have even known where to begin. It turns out my nVidia GeForce was TOO up to date.  ._.   I was running version 191 and needed version 190 since both Sims games weren't compatible with 191. They really thought that one through.<br /><br />On another note, I won't have internet for awhile thanks to our WONDERFUL wireless provider, but when I do come back, I'll have some pictures of my updated Fused Shadow (from my Midna) and pictures of my latest cosplay costume. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/m/meow.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":meow:" title="Meow :3" /> Hopefully everyone will enjoy it.<br /><br />Thanks again, everyone! <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/g/glomp.gif" width="47" height="20" alt=":glomp:" title="Glomp!" /><br /><br />------END EDIT------<br /><br />I posted this question on Yahoo Answers yesterday, with no luck. I could really use some help - I have no clue what's wrong with this.<br /><br />My copy of The Sims 3 won't run. I recently ran a destructive restore on my computer, and reinstalled this game (which was working perfectly before). I installed the latest DirectX drivers, and the game ran fine. I changed my in-game graphics settings and quit, but when I went to start the game again, it wouldn't run. After I click "play" from the game launcher, the screen goes black like it's going to load (though the taskbar is still visible) and it stops and takes me back to my desktop. I've tried reinstalling the Sims 3, reinstalling DirectX, and restarting my computer, and nothing works. What should I do??<br /><br />Additional notes: The Sims 2 also doesn't work, but other games I have (like Spore and The Movies) work. I have an Emachine, and have installed an nVidia GeForce 8400 GPU video card.<br /><br />PLEASE! I could really use any bit of advice/help. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/h/hug.gif" width="38" height="15" alt=":hug:" title="Hug" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Wow.<br /><br />My computer was becoming infected with a virus, I think. So I went ahead and ran a system restore to go back to a date when my computer wasn't infected. By doing so, I somehow lost 2+ years worth of pictures, documents, games, game files, music, videos, and stories that I can't get back.<br /><br />Maybe next time I'll learn to back my files up.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

That's the price you pay for going through a wireless-by-satellite provider.<br /><br />Anyways, I'll be attending EAE this weekend. I'll be there as Yuffie (Dirge of Cerberus) on Saturday with the lovely <a href="http://cosplayaerith.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/c/o/cosplayaerith.gif?2" alt=":iconcosplayaerith:" title="cosplayaerith"/></a> as Aerith.

And thanks to everyone who commented and favorite-ed all my Midna cosplay pictures. I'm glad, since that photoshoot was not only tiring but very long and somewhat difficult.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ 1. The first character you fell in love with:<br />Kadaj. Okay okay. I'll admit it, the first time I really got into Final Fantasy VII wasn't until after I saw the movie. But after that I got into it through watching the other different movies and watching my heterolifepartner play the games.<br /><br />2. The character you never expected to love as much as you do now:<br />Denzel. After ACC came out, he buried and nestled a special place in my heart. Also, Nero from Dirge of Cerberus. I don't know what it is about that bondage mask...<br /><br />3. The character everyone else loves that you donÂt:<br />Sephiroth. SERIOUSLY guys, come on. He's just a whining, sad pretty boy with mommy issues that JUST WON'T DIE!! <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/h/headache.gif" width="16" height="16" alt=":headache:" title="Splitting Headache!" /> and Tifa. Holy crap, guys, her body is way too tiny for that rack, and I just can't stand her presence.<br /><br />4. The character you love that everyone else hates:<br />I'm not sure, actually. Maybe Genesis. Most I know take an immediate dislike to him just because he's directly based off Gackt, and I don't like Gackt but I like Genesis...its weird.<br /><br />5. The character you would shag anytime:<br />Oh geez...just one? Really? Umm...probably Zack. He's the only one manly enough. Or Rufus because he's really smooth and pretty.<br /><br />6. The character you'd want to be like:<br />Uuummm...I'm not sure. I'd definitely love to have the casual outlook on life that Zack has. Or Yuffie because she's really cute and fun!<br /><br />7. The character you'd slap:<br />Is it like, a kinky thing? Reno. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/g/giggle.gif" width="17" height="15" alt=":giggle:" title="Giggle" /><br /><br />8. A pairing that you love:<br />Zack/Cloud, Tseng/Rufus, Reno/Rude, Kadaj/Yazoo<br /><br />9. A pairing that you despise<br />Anyone with Sephiroth or Tifa, especially Cloud. Cloud doesn't belong with either.<br /><br />10. Favorite character:<br />Zack, and Kadaj.<br /><br />11. What are your five favorite things about the fandom.<br />Nothing, really. I try to stay away from that and keep to the opinions of myself and my closest friends.<br /><br />12. What are your five least favorite things about the fandom.<br />See 11<br /><br />13. Who are your five favourite characters (in order!)?<br />WHAT? You just asked me who my favorite was!<br /><br />14. Who are your five least favorite characters.<br />Sephy, Tifa, Hojo...yep.<br /><br />15. What are your five favorite pairings.<br />-_-<br /><br />16. What are your five least favorite pairings.<br />STOP ASKING<br /><br />17. Which character are you most like.<br />Lesse. Since most of them live in my head, its kinda hard to tell anymore...<br /><br />18. What is your deep, dark fandom secret.<br />Oh geez...I'm not totally sure. I'm usually out and proud with most of my fandoms. I secretly enjoy a little Zack/Angeal from time to time, but nothing else real major.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I got home from my St. Louis/Branson trip last night, so if you'd rather not read all that jazz and skip to my opinion on the death of MJ, feel free <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /><br /><br />My aunt and I left on Sunday morning and headed down to Missouri. It was supposed to be a 10-hour trip, but thanks to the change from Eastern to Central time, and my aunt's need for speed, it only took about 8. Sunday was uneventful for the most part, aside from almost getting trampled at Ted Drewes Frozen Custard. That place was PACKED! But I got my Cookie Dough Concrete Custard and a T-Shirt, so it wasn't all that bad. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br /><br />Monday we got up and left for Branson, which was hotter that St. Louis! We of course had to go during the southern heat wave, which I'm not used to living next to the lake farther north. We went to the Titanic Museum, which I could not have been happier for!! I always wanted to go, and silly me, I totally forgot it was in Branson until we got there and I started hearing commercials for it on the radio. We even got those cool audio tour guide things you hold up to your ear when you get to an exhibit. The museum though! It was absolutely amazing, and so big! I even geeked out like the fangirl I am when I saw all of Kate Winslet's dresses from the movie behind 50,000 layers of glass. I wanted to touch them so bad, or at least take pictures, but unfortunately they don't let you do either in there. I'm a big Titanic buff, one of the things I'm less-known for, but I went there and had an amazing time.<br /><br />That night we went to see Legends in concert, basically a bunch of really good impersonators doing the Blues Brothers, Marilyn Munroe, The Temptations, Gretchen Wilson, and Elvis. (The Elvis was a great singer, but he didn't quite have the face for it.)<br /><br />Tuesday we went to the Silver Dollar City, just a wild west-themed amusement park with some awesome roller coasters. One coaster, the Powder Keg, I went on three times. Once with my cousin, the second time with my aunt, and the third time with my cousin again. (The second time was the most amusing...the guy in front of me kept yelling "YOU'RE SO AWESOME! YOU'RE DOING GREAT!") After the third time I started getting a headache so I stopped. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" />  They had a bunch of cute shops though, like a taffy store, a candle store that smelled like crayons (wax, duh <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" />) a leather store, a bakery, a jerky store...it was all just very fun. We even saw a few shows while we were there.<br /><br />Wednesday we just spent getting some last-minute things done around Branson. I went back to the Titanic Museum and got this ADORABLE bear based off Polar, the Titanic bear, which has a story behind it. In 1912, the family of Daisy Corning Spedding, including her young son Douglas - and his Steiff bear "Polar" - survived the Titanic's fateful voyage. Unfortunately, Douglas died at the age of 9 in a car accident. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" />  It still makes a great story, and one adorable bear. :3<br /><br />Thursday we went back to St. Louis, and went to the Gateway Arch and the Grand/Great Basin...I can't remember. It was hot, there was a lot of water, and my aunt almost got to touch a hungry crane. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br /><br />Friday was 10 hours on the road and back home! <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" />  Now here I am. Surely!<br /><br /><br />Okay, MJ. Seriously?? I don't even think there was this much media coverage when Kennedy was assassinated! Plus, Farrah died the same day, after battling one of the most rare forms of cancer for over 3 years (right?), and she was a strong woman with the talent and courage to back it up! Michael Jackson had some talent, yeah, but lets face it...he was hotter when he was black. He was ALWAYS in the news, and I'm not trying to be mean, but I got really sick of hearing about his death really fast, especially when I was at my cousin's place and saw it on every channel, over REAL world news, for hours. Geez. Yeah, I liked Michael, I had nothing against him, but...come on. We got plenty of him when he was alive.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

I just want to know how many people know about these games and how familiar they are with them, so I may go ahead with his big "secret" project of mine.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ WOW! Tekko....probably one of the most productive cons I've been to, and I think staying at the hotel at the actual con had a lot to do with that. It was awesome that so many people recognized my effort and attention to detail in my Yuna and Midna! It made me feel so good, I'm still running off the high a little bit. I saw a lot of great costumes and got to hang out with a bunch of cool people.<br /><br />Of course, big cons like these always leave me farther in the hole than I'd like, and I'd like to know if I opened commissions, would people actually want one? They wouldn't be expensive since I don't consider myself to be very good. Lineart would be pretty cheap, and anything colored wouldn't be much more than that. I would love more practice with this new style I've adapted too, so let me know if that would be a good idea or not.<br /><br />OH, and for those of you who were wondering in my last journal, the "Raynger" in my name is a running joke between my friend and I involving Yevon turning into the worship of Chuck Norris and all his followers being his "Rangers". I altered the spelling a little and got my username. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" />  Though with a few of the suggestions I got that may change. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

I have paints now, thanks to the most awesome lady I know: <a href="http://zologirl.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/z/o/zologirl.gif?6" alt=":iconzologirl:" title="zologirl"/></a> who bought me, not only the Reno jacket that I'll be wearing to Tekkoshocon, but acrylic paints as well with which to fix my Midna suit! :happydance:<br /><br />Also, I JUST found out that I was one of the lucky 30 people to be accepted into the finals at the Tekkoshocon AMV contest!! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" />  Only one of my videos was accepted (which is bogus because there's a few other people who submitted two or three videos, all of which got accepted), and yes I just used the word "bogus", but I'm SOOO happy that my video made it. Its made of awesome and stuff. So of course I have to be there early on Friday to make it to the contest and see my video, and BOY do I hope it wins something!<br /><br />So this is part of the reason why I'm in such a disgustingly good mood. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I'm pretty sure I ruined my new Midna suit. The black dye, of course, bled RIGHT into the white, and no amount of acrylic paint can even it out and make it look nice. The self-esteem isn't so great right now, thinking about how I spent at least $40 on the dye and another $30 on the actual suit. I should've sewn two suits together, but didn't, of course. I'm not sure if bleach is gonna take the dye out. If not, my last resort will be to paint over the white with acrylics. (NO FABRIC PAINT THIS TIME!) But...who knows if I can make it to WalMart before the con. I have no ride, and no one wants to take me.<br /><br />Things aren't going too smooth for me right now. I kinda wish I liked myself.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I had this crazy dream last night that kept coming back, even after waking up and falling back asleep. Some of you may think this is completely crazy, but that may be because you've never been a serious writer like me. This entire dream came to me by someone, giving me important bits and pieces of information, and now I have to take those pieces and write this story. I don't know how I know I have to, I just do. Its a parody of the Wizard of Oz, something I've been in love with since age 3, including all its little spin-offs like Tin Man. Its gonna be pretty interesting!<br /><br />---<br /><br />I'm in the works of planning a FFX photo shoot here where I live. I'm making/fixing the costumes for it as well, like with my Lulu's dress, and I'm helping my Tidus actually make his costume while he's home for Spring Break. (He's wanted to make one for awhile but never really got around to it because of school.)<br /><br />So far I only have three people confirmed for this, myself included. Bascially the photo shoot will be done at Lake Erie, and/or any other beach in the surrounding area we can get to, and will be a photo session and hopefully the creation of the Live Final Fantasy X Vocal Collection (basically videos taken with my camera, put to the music either in its original Japanese format or re-recorded by my cast in English). We may also take to other locations that look similar to their FFX counterparts, like that one huge, hilly field near Meadville that looks like the Calm Lands.<br /><br />This is our cast as of right now. I have no hopes at all of taking a complete cast, because I don't know of many people in my area who cosplay these characters, and I don't like Kimari  >_<  We are also in need of a willing photographer. "Tidus" would basically be our source of transportation and I'm sure he'd be nice enough to come and get everyone so long as they fit in his car, assuming that my car still doesn't run by that time. (If it does, I have more room!!)<br /><br />I also can't pinpoint a date this very moment, I just know that it will be sometime this summer, when the weather is nice and when the beaches aren't crowded out the ass. This may mean going to a few locations later in the day as well. Anyone who lives here should know how unpredictible the weather is, but I do have hopes that everyone will be avaliable on one day where the weather is just gorgeous.<br /><br />Yuna - <a href="http://ladyrayngeryuna.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/l/a/ladyrayngeryuna.png?3" alt=":iconladyrayngeryuna:" title="ladyrayngeryuna"/></a><br /><br />Lulu - <a href="http://luziferrr.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/default.gif" alt=":iconluziferrr:" title="luziferrr"/></a><br /><br />Rikku - <a href="http://listlesslullabye.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/l/i/listlesslullabye.png?2" alt=":iconlistlesslullabye:" title="listlesslullabye"/></a><br /><br />Tidus - (Not an active dA member)<br /><br />Wakka - <br /><br />Auron -<br /><br />*Photographer* - <a href="http://zologirl.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/z/o/zologirl.gif?6" alt=":iconzologirl:" title="zologirl"/></a><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ EDIT: So my sister, who likes to change her mind more often than she changes underwear, decided that she didn't want to be Link OR Aerith at the convention. Which is lovely considering that the con is two weeks away, and I still have to make an entire Dark Link costume for Kaylee. She decided that instead of Link, she wanted to be...Zant.  o_o  <br /><br />Then of course, it was left up to me to make the entire costume. Well, I've been at it for two days, and the helmet is mostly complete. Anyone interested in pictures? The robe is coming next, then after that I have to focus my attention on that Dark Link or else it'll never get done. We should be pretty popular at the con though, and a lot of people seem to like my Fused Shadow over on cosplay.com!<br /><br />--END EDIT--<br /><br /><br />And the verdict is....<br /><br /><br />Imp Midna, and Roxas!<br />It was going to be Gullwing Fairy Yuna instead, but my fellow Gullwings abadoned ship and decided to cosplay bigger and better things. Plus, I have a Roxas wig here that I styled all by myself like the big girl I am, and if I want money for the convention, I can't afford to go off and buy a new Yuna wig. Paying back these student loans have been ass-raping my wallet, seriously.<br /><br />Saturday's group will be Zelda, as far as I know, with Midna, Navi, Link, and Dark Link. Sunday will be Roxas, Marluxia, Larxene (as far as I know), and Aerith from KHII. ((If I'm wrong, let me know...))<br /><br />Midna is just about finished. I keep touching up the bodysuit and fused shadow every now and then, but besides that...its pretty much finished. Roxas...I have the wig and thats about it. If anyone in the area has something checkered for me to wear, that'd be awesome. I have less than a month to become a metrosexual teenage boy.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I am never -NEVER- doing my Christmas shopping last-minute ever again. EVER.<br /><br />About a week ago, I was trying to fall asleep and realized that Christmas is coming up very soon. So after a few talks with my mom, we decided we needed to get the bulk of out shopping done this weekend, or we'd be pretty screwed. We went yesterday, and it was an absolute nightmare.<br /><br />We first stopped at WalMart so I could at least knock my mom off my list. Morons parked as far as the eye could see. One jackass was parked hoizontally across two spaces, and a few not-so-smart citizens were parked over the "LOADING ZONE: NO PARKING" line near the back of the building. I really hope those people got tickets, because thats just incredibly dumb. It was crowded inside, of course, and I needed to make photo prints for my mom's present. This woman, no lie, stood at the photo machine for almost a half hour, cropping all her pictures, and editing them in the store, and had a line that snaked around the register. I was lucky enough to snag a machine that didn't work, but I bumped into my friend Laura, who moved back from Kentucky a few months ago, and she was working back there so she fixed the paper jam in the printer for me. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br /><br />We were checking out, my sister and I, when the last three people I wanted to see that day walked in: Chris, Ray, and Nate. Nate I don't mind so much, but Chris has always been an ass to me (especially when he became our band director in High School) and Ray has been blowing me off like yesterday's tea bags the last month and a half. They didn't even notice us until I said "Oh shit, thats Chris. ...And Ray." And my sister made a real loud animal noise, and of course they ALL looked over, and I was forced to wave, since it was too late by the time they turned around, and they had already seen me. Of course they didn't come over to say anything and kept walking, so it didn't turn out too bad.<br /><br />We went to the Golden Corral for lunch, which also wasn't too bad. I had some chili and a salad...and some frozen yogurt with gummi bears and M&Ms. After that was the mall. It took us about 20 minutes to get into the parking lot, because people kept cutting other people off, and one jerk ran into the back of someone else's car, slamming their bumper. It wasn't pretty.<br /><br />We got in and it was more crowded than WalMart. I almost freaked out in Spencer's because of the crowd. I started feeling compressed and trapped, and we didn't make it halfway through before I told my sister we had to leave. There were a lot of assholes there though, and one incident fuled my hate for little boys even more. ((I absolutely hate little boys, and by "little boys" I mean boys between the ages of puberty and 18.)) I was in Victoria's Secret with my brother looking for something for my mom, and some skinny-ass punky emo kid was in my way, so I said "Excuse me" and he kinda looked at me and said "Oh, you're excused." Myself, along with two or three other people in the surrounding area gave this kid a real nasty "Excuse me?" look while the kid walked off with his equally-as ugly and emo girlfriend. If I had it in me I would have said something to him. Unfortunately I couldn't think of anything to say at the time. -_- I also almost got sat on by some ugly 13-year-old with a beard and ghetto clothes.<br /><br />Sorry for complaining so long, but this is why I will NEVER shop this early before Christmas EVER AGAIN! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/headache.gif" width="16" height="16" alt=":headache:" title="Splitting Headache!" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I "love" how everything tends to fail on me around the holidays.<br /><br />My mp3 player is broke. My laptop is broke. The snow is broke. I'm broke. Get ready, because this next one is a real kicker, and the reason I'll shortly be selling my entire collection of Sims 2 Expansion Packs. ((Yes, I AM that desperate for money right now.)) My desktop computer did an ENTIRE system restore and erased a good 4 years of pictures, music, videos, and documents. Can't write anything until I fix the problem with Word, or until the magic document fairy swings by and grants me with OpenOffice. I can't download applications because I'm on a wireless connection that comes in through a satelite.<br /><br />Things are just GREAT right now. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/headache.gif" width="16" height="16" alt=":headache:" title="Splitting Headache!" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Just so I don't have to worry about being strapped for Christmas or Ohayocon cash, I'm selling a wig and a few misc costume parts for anyone who is interested. I will be selling:<br /><br />Yuna wig<br />Gunner Yuna belt<br />Thief Rikku belt<br />Summoner Yuna belt and bow (the original, and does not have the hibiscus - if interested and serious about purchase, I'll have no problem making another)<br /><br />Even if you're not interested, please help me get the word out. I really don't need these things laying around and adding to the clutter-hole that is my room, and the money can go towards Christmas things, and possibly new costume parts. I'm not sure ho much I want to sell them for yet, but the Gunner belt will probably cost more because of how much time I put into it and how nice it looks.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

And that one hotel that looked like a clown shoe got booked two minutes before I booked it. But thankfully I got us a room in time...one room with two double beds, and the hotel staff doesn't have to know 5 people are staying there, right?? Thats okay, we'll improvise. I'm just glad we have a good room in time, because all the hotels in that area were going FAST! But we're going, its all good! Who's excited?! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/d/dance.gif" width="29" height="21" alt=":dance:" title="Dance!" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I can't post this journal on my y-gallery account, because for some reason I can't stay logged on long enough to do anything important.<br /><br />Well anyways, the CNA Fan Expo was fantastic! As soon as I can upload the pictures on photobucket, I'll share them with everyone. That is, unless someone ELSE who was there would like to share. WINK WINK <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /> The pics pretty much explain the trip. I chased down two Renos there, which was cool, and the one we hung out with was tons of fun. We even made a video with the Savage Bandito and saw Kate Mulgrew! Good times all around.<br /><br />I'm having computer problems again. -_- I know I know, "Dump the emachine and move on to bigger and better things, Ky." I'm not quite ready to part way with my emachine yet. I left the computer turned off for 3 days, and when I turned it back on, the fan ran, but the monitor did not pick up a signal. I switched out the power supply, the computer ran for 5 minutes, then crashed again. I switch the power supply out a second time, it ran for 5 minutes, and crashed. Now each time I turn it on, it runs long enough to ask me which mode I would like to run windows in, then restarts again.<br /><br />I would love some advice, as I'm not sure I'm ready to spend hundreds of dollars (again) getting it repaired, because as I said, this has happened before, and its most likely going to happen again. I can't understand why it would do this after being shut off for 3 days, and why it acts differently each time I change the power supply. Any advice?<br /><br />Other than that, my parents decided to run away for a couple days and abandon me and my siblings. No matter! :3<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Ooh snap its June already? When did THAT happen?? Geeze!<br /><br />Alright, well...the cosplay is so far so good. ::knock on wood:: Here are a few updates for people that care.<br /><br />Summoner Yuna:<br />The skirt and belt are both painted and finished! ::applause:: Though I have my lovely grandma to thank for the sewing. She's amazing. I painted the designs on myself, and soon I'll be getting the wrap-over top. That just leaves the sleeves, then the dying and everything else is up to me. I need boots, too. So...good luck to me trying to find boots in a store in June.<br /><br />KHII Kairi:<br />I finished the belt and purse today. How I managed to sew through leather...I have no idea. But I did it, and it was good. Thats finally done; I have to sew the hood to the tank top, and Payge took the pink part home to sew the zipper on there. That was fun, huh? ^_^  And rather interesting. Haha..zippers.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Sooo how excited am I for the CNA Expo this summer? Umm, quite a bit!! So here's the plan, folks.<br /><br />I have my Songstress dress all made, but I don't think it's coming with me to CNA. Sad, kinda, but I can wear it to the EAE Con this September if the Summoner dress falls through this summer. <br /><br />I've made the Summoner skirt, kinda, and I want to get that finished this weekend with some help from my mom. I need fabric paint for the flowers, and that'll be done. But I still need to make the top, sleeves, belt, and bow, and buy boots, and all kinds of things. I'm not sure if I can or should do it...any advice from the peanut gallery??<br /><br />I'm really excited for my Sora and Roxas outfits though. I'm buying the Sora one on Cosplay Magic, but when I get it it's gonna need a few alterations and things. It's really manufactured-looking, but there's no way under the sun I'm gonna be able to make something that complex. And <a href="http://listlesslullabye.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/l/i/listlesslullabye.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconlistlesslullabye:" title="listlesslullabye"/></a> is getting fabric for our Orgy costumes, and that's gonna be awesome too!! <br /><br />So yeah, that's all I have for now. But I'm really excited and everything. Now all I need is a Namine, Kairi, or Rikku to take cute pics with! ::coughPAYGEcough:: :3<br /><br /> ]]></description>
