Mmkay, so here's the story of my last week, made brief.

I went to a cosplay meetup on Tuesday, since we didn't have school for election day. And I met this L cosplayer there. And he was really cool and life was awesome and happy fun tiemz were had.

And then that night, I had given him my AIM as we were leaving the meetup, so he IMed me. And asked me if I would be his girlfriend. Remember that I've only known this guy for about six hours... so I said no to being his girlfriend since I barely knew him, but I'm not entirely against the idea overall... I would just want to actually know him first. And we said we'd go out on Saturday (today) to, you know, get to know each other more.

But we never set a time. And he didn't sign onto AIM at ALL so we couldn't set one up... until it got to be today, and I still didn't know WHEN we were supposed to meet, and I had the SAT IIs in the morning anyway (which are a BITCH, by the way) and... it just didn't work out.

So I did other things today (one of which I'll freak out about in a second to you guys) and I got home at around 4:30 or so, signed onto AIM myself... and saw an offline message he left for me saying that he wouldn't be able to go out with me today... and that he didn't think he'd be able to at all- he said that he had to concentrate on his classes considering how he's not exactly doing to well in them at the moment, and he said he'd just gotten out of a long, hard relationship, but if it wouldn't be wierd, he still wanted to be friends.

And to be honest... I was kind of relieved. I was flattered when he first asked me, but... he's really cool and all, but I just didn't LIKE him like that. And maybe that would've come with time. Maybe if I'd hung out with him more, and gotten to know him better, that would've changed. But... it's probably for the best, the way it is.

I dunno. But as much as I complain about it... and as much as I occasionally want someone to just be with... I kinda really kind being single. I like being a flirt. I don't want to have to change that just for one guy. I bitch about it... but I really rather like my single status.

Also... my family's cell phone contract ran up with Verizon recently, so we renewed today and got new phones, and do you know what I got?

AN LG ENV TOUCH. Damn straight- I have a smart phone. And it makes me SO VERY, VERY HAPPY. Just sayin'. XD

So today I went back to my middle school, to give a presentation on my high school, and why the 8th graders should apply there. And I was REALLY awkward in middle school. I mean, I thought I was happy and popular at the time, but looking back... god, I was practically mute, and I had almost no real friends, and such TERRIBLE fashion sense. But to go back there for the first time in a long while, and have the teachers look at you, not recognize you and look away, then do a double take and go "...Emma?? Is that you?? You... you look good!!" Yeah, that's pretty sweet.

When: Saturday, October 10th, 1PM
Where: The south side of the Great Lawn in Central Park
Details: It's a picnic, so bring stuff to sit on, food (preferably some to share as well~), stuff to play with (balls, frisbees, etc.), and YOURSELF.

Also, don't be an ass in Central Park. People get married there. So, for example? Yaoi circles are not happening. I love them too, but it's a public place.

Also also... it's starting to get cold, so dress accordingly. I won't be wearing my Shiki Misaki for example, and I would hope you wouldn't wear anything similar...

And, if you're on Facebook... have a link? [link]

Friday at New York Anime Fest- which cosplay do I wear???

I'm considering between Shiki Misaki from The World Ends With You, and Haruhi Fujioka from Ouran High School Host Club.

On one hand, I can actually look feminine as Shiki, which will be nice, particularly at a con scene where guys aren't afraid of me so I can actually flirt there and stuff. While as Haruhi I'm flat as a board, and I'm crossplaying on Saturday and Sunday, so there's no hope there. Also, I haven't debuted my Shiki at a con yet, which I have with Haruhi- I've only worn Shiki to meets, not a proper con.

On the other hand, I can wear my Haruhi cosplay to school and I won't have to worry about changing or anything because I'll have to head to the con after school. (Actually, it'll be a mad dash to get there, considering how I have to go from the Bronx to the Javits Center in under an hour to make the voice acting panel on Friday- there are three voice acting panels this weekend, all of them on different things in the voice acting industry, and I swear this year I WILL MAKE THEM ALL.) And I AM still pretty cute in my Haruhi cosplay... but I still look even flatter than I actually am in it.

Voice actors from both fandoms are going to be there, so it's not like that's a major factor- well, it IS a factor, but it's evened out.

So guys... what do you think?

EDIT: Okay, so what about this idea? I go to school and to the con on Friday as Haruhi... and then on Saturday I have my Axis Powers Hetalia meet, but after that I change into Shiki. Eh? Eh? Whaddya think??

THANKS A LOT. WHY'D YOU HAVE TO SHOW ME HOW AWESOME IT IS?? NOW I'M OBESSED AND CAN'T GET THAT DAMN THEME OUT OF MY HEAD. AND THAT'S JUST OF THE ABRIDGED SERIES.

"Oh my god... that ShamWOW just sucked the life out of him." "Whoa, whoa, whoa. Whoa. Is that a f@#&ing ShamWOW?!"

Also, I saw Ponyo today!! Oh my god, it was so utterly adorable. I loved it so much!! Even though I was so totally late in seeing it... XD

WHAT THE HELL WHY AM I SO YOUNG???? It's not even like they were pervy about it, they're just like "You know, if we had gone to high school together, I probably would have asked you out." WHY IS IT JUST GUYS WHO ARE OLDER THAN ME WHO WOULD DO THAT??? NO ONE my age has ever liked me back, but both of these guys who are older and awesomer and more mature say they would have really liked me. WHYYYYYYYY???????

So, I'm in... the greater Boston area right now. In... Hadley, MA, to be specific. And they have a computer in the hotel we're staying in for the night. Because we're only here one night before we go to Amhearst...

Anyway, I don't exactly have time to post, but I just wanted to say hi to you all, and that I'm not actually here. So if it takes me about a week to respond to your posts/deviations... that's why. I'll try to get on through my phone, so I can respond to comments and stuff, but not posts. So uh... yeah. I love you all, and I miss you, and I'm being dragged out to dinner. Bye~

P.S. GMSN IS A BEAUTIFUL THING. Just sayin'. XD

And my computer's internet is working fine! (For once...)

Anyone have ANY idea what's going on??

In a mostly but not entirely unrelated note: anyone going to the Hetalia meetup tomorrow in Bryant Park? I'll be there as N. Italy~! Well, causal N. Italy, because not only is his full cosplay not done, there is no way in hell I'm wearing his full uniform in the middle of summer... but yeah. Anyone else going?

Please stop being so awesome. You're sucking all my money away. How am I supposed to pay for Death Note 13: How to Read?? And I have to. I mean, I can't NOT, because you're being so damn awesome. But the only way I was able to get the book about the LABB Murder Cases was by getting my parents to pay for it! (And, of course, because you just HAVE to be so awesome, I've already read it twice. In under 24 hours. Because I just can't put it down.) Even if I use my Haruhi Fujioka wig for my Italy cosplay, and borrow 's Hunny wig for America, what about everything else? What about saving up to see Avenue Q, or anything else??

...Dammit. You're not helping.

With far more love than I should have for you,
Arthoniel

SPOILER ALERT

SPOILER ALERT

FUCKING DEATH NOTE SPOILERS BE HERE

...If you haven't noticed that by now, you're a moron.

So... birthday money is a beautiful thing. Now why, you may ask, is birthday money so beautiful? Well, I will tell you why it's so beautiful. IT'S BECAUSE IT ALLOWS ME TO BUY THE REST OF THE DEATH NOTE MANGA AND FINISH IT IN ABOUT A DAY.

...Holy shit. That's all I can say. Holy shit.

I'm watching the anime now too... and I'm going to get my parents to buy the book about the Los Angeles BB Murder Cases soon too... they might actually do it too because it's a real novel, and doesn't rot my brain through PICTURES.

...Yeah, they actually believe that. Even though Death Note, for example, is so much more intelligent than most of the stuff my peers (and sometimes even I) read, they automatically assume that it's stupid and childish because it's a COMIC.

...They've never read any manga in thier lives. Obviously. And they're only liberal and open-minded in theory. And that's all I'll say here.

But holy shit Death Note.

By the way, at the very end when they show Misa praying to Kira... is it just me, or does she have the Shinigami eyes? Or is it just me?

BUT DUDE I CAN'T WAIT TO COSPLAY MISA. IT WILL BE AWESOME. SO AWESOME.

...Right. I'm done now. XD

...I don't approve of this whole "getting older" thing. So instead, I'm going to do what Mookie (author and artist of the webcomic Dominic Deegan) does, and instead of being another year older, I'll just think of my age in levels.

So tomorrow, instead of turning 17, I'll simply become a Level 17 nerd. Which, I admit, makes me sound kinda pathetic, but... shhh.

Also... remember that mini-cosplay meetup I went to two Fridays ago? No? Shh... it's the one I posted pics from today. Well, those were just my favorites- almost all of the pics I took from the mini-meet (save the duplicates and the ones that turned out all blurry because I can't take a proper shot) are all here, at my LiveJournal: [link] In case you're, you know, curious about them or anything.

I may or may not be doing anything over the summer. I'm not really sure, but my parents want me to- to the point where if I'm not, I'm screwed. I won't have the internets, TV, or texting... but I don't know how they're going to enforce that last one.

So what I want to say is... if I can't find anything, I just want you all to know that I love you all so very, very much, and... I'll let you know if my internets are taken away, but... call me!! Seriously- anything to alleviate the boredome.

Seriously, feel free to call or text me anytime!!


Secondly... where are all the other people from AnimeNEXT?? I've been browsing Cosplay.com and the AnimeNEXT forums (by the way, I got a cosplay.com account!! I'm arthoniel there too... XD), and... I see a few people, but almost NONE of them have LiveJournals or DeviantArts, and I've found VERY few pictures of me!! I mean, I must have given my picture to about a billion people and all, but... nothing!!

WHY DIDN'T ADAM WIN??? Well, I know why he didn't win, but it pisses me off. Just because he's ~*different*~ he can't be the American Idol, even if he is, by FAR, the better singer.

I mean, I suppose it works out better for them both. Kris isn't BAD, and he needs the fame of being the American Idol more to sell more records, and Adam will do amazingly regardless, but... UGH. DO NOT WANT.

But beyond that! I ALSO noticed that cleolinda on LiveJournal's "Secret Life of Dolls" is simply AWESOME. I mean, I already knew that, but... I've been kind of wanting to do something like that myself. And... well, I have a Data figurine (from... ahem... Comic Con '08) that I actually still haven't opened, and... I figure I can start with him, and then maybe get the Edward Cullen doll they're selling at Borders... it could be fun. And, quite honestly... why not?

Yes, that is all. XD

I... tag everyone. And I tag no one. Why? BECAUSE I'M A MAVERICK!!!

Okay. I won't go on about the election. Really, I won't. I mean, there's just been so much of it on the internets... plus I've already done my political squeeing on my LiveJournal.

So now it's time to get to the important stuff!!

Why does whatever powers may or may not exist feel the need to give me a cold? I mean... really?

Also, the Ouran DVDs came out!! I didn't get one, but my friend did, so on Halloween, I'm going over to her house, and there's a party in her apartment building, and then we're watching it. Probably all of it. What? I love Ouran...

...sort of. I won't be able to submit any new deviations for at least another two months, because I'm not at home right now. I'm at Gerogetown University, doing a summer law program, and while I now have internet access, I don't have Photoshop access. But uh... yeah. I'm alive! I'm sure you're thrilled.

Of course, having said all that, I don't really have anything to report or anything about life... so uh... yeah. That's pretty much it...

1. Post these rules
2. Each tagged person must post 8 things about themselves on their journal
3. At the end, you have to tag 8 other people and post thier icons on the same journal
4. Go to thier pages and send them saying you tagged them

So then... let's do it!

1. I am a HUGE fangirl for anything and everything I may like. Seriously, I will REALLY get into that fandom.

2. I just joined my first RP, but I've gotten really involved with it.

3. I've only been a geek for about a year or so.

4. Before about a year or so I was really... normal. As in, only concerned with becoming popular and how I looked and stuff.

5. I currently have a crush on 8 guys, none of whom are actually real. What? All the guys my age are all... immature in both body and mind.

6. I used to be deathly afraid of dogs, but I'm really getting over that fear now.

7. I'm going to be either an actress or a lawyer when I get old enough, and possibly both.

8. I've also relatively recently gotten into cosplay- you can see my Mai (from Avatar: The Last Airbender) cosplay in my gallery, and I'm working on making a Maya (from the Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney series) cosplay now.

So, it may be kind of cheating, but I'm not going to tag anybody now. Partially because I'm not entirely sure how to link to other people's DAs on here *feels like a total noob* and partially because I haven't friended enough people on here to tag. *feels even noobier.*

Oh, and just so we're clear? Eliot Spitzer is a bastard. Not because he destroyed his family- that sucks too, but... I live in New York. We ELECTED this guy, and he screwed us over.

NO, I AM NOT A WHORE, AND I DON'T LIKE MY REPUTATION TO BE SEEN AS SUCH BECAUSE ONE GOVERNOR COULDN'T KEEP HIS PANTS ON. So, yeah. I'm pissed.
