                <description><![CDATA[ Technically I was tagged by two people XD: <a href="http://satinkitten.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/s/a/satinkitten.jpg?1" alt=":iconsatinkitten:" title="satinkitten"/></a> and <a href="http://leaux.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/l/e/leaux.gif?1" alt=":iconleaux:" title="leaux"/></a><br /><br />âWho did you first cosplay as?<br />Videl, Dragonball Z, JFC old school<br /><br />âWhen and where did you first cosplay?<br />My first convention, Tekkoshocon '03 (OLD)<br /><br />âWhen and where was the last time you cosplayed?<br />By all technicality... ooh that'd be Tekko '09. I was Butters from South Park in his Professor Chaos getup. It was amazing. I had a gun and switched soup. Be afraid~<br /><br />âWho have you cosplayed as in the past?<br />Are you ready for this? XD Lets see if my memory serves me correct.<br />Videl (DBZ)<br />Ken (Weiss Kreuz)<br />Kyo (Furuba)<br />Nuriko (Fushigi Yuugi)<br />Fai (Tsubasa)<br />an "Anime Fangirl" (I was 13)<br />"casual" Sanji (One piece)<br />Tsuna (Katekyo Hitman Reborn)<br />Hinata (Naruto)<br />pajama Hinata (Naruto)<br />Shikamaru (Naruto)<br />Yumichika (Bleach)<br />shinigami Ishida (Bleach)<br />Sanosuke (Rurouni Kenshin)<br />5 minute Sanzo (Saiyuki)<br />Goku (Saiyuki)<br />"Sexy no Jitsu" Itachi (Naruto)       <br /> - At this point I think I've named everything but erm, w/e XD. I like to be men. <3<br /><br /><br />âWho is your favourite person to cosplay as?<br />I'm quite fond of being Yumichika. He is so over the top and not very much like me. It's fun playing someone so high maintenance and full of themselves. Likewise, I really enjoy being Tsuna. I really identify with the character and my group that I cosplay with are all epic. We have such a great time.<br /><br />âWho do you REALLY wanna cosplay as?<br />My list is kinda crazy long. But at the moment my biggest dream cosplay of all time is Alexial from Angel Sanctuary. It has been since I saw her for the first time. I also really want to be Seras from Hellsing, Revolutionary War America  or Pirate UK from Hetalia, Sena from Eyeshield 21, and Odoroki from Gyakuten Saiban 4<br /><br />âHow many of your friends cosplay?<br />Almost every single one of them. We have a lot of fun you know, some of my most favorite memories.<br /><br />âHave you ever walked around in public in your cosplay outfit?<br />Traveling to and fro the cons, getting something to eat at said cons. Not just in public for lulz though, not yet.<br /><br />âHave people in public ever recognized you and asked for photos?<br />XD No, I have no reason to be that epic.<br /><br />âHave you ever made your own cosplay outfit?<br />Mhmm, quite a bit of them! Some are sort of closet cosplay where I specifically buy pieces to make it, but MOST are all sewn.<br /><br />âWhen and where did you first learn of cosplay?<br />The internet, I saw pictures. After I realized I wanted to go to a con, I figured I had to cosplay to be on of the cool kids. Lulz ensued.<br /><br />âWhat did you think of it then?<br />This is so cool! Can I do this?1<br /><br />âWhat do you think of it now?<br />As I get older I have more money and more talent but less time for it. Hopefully I'll be able to make a dream costume or two and really enjoy it.<br /><br />âWhere do you usually cosplay?<br />Conventions~ Oh and a few halloween parties.<br /><br />âHave you ever done a cosplay skit on stage?<br />No, but at one Otakon I did walk across the stage with Rini when they were doing the hall contest. XD We asked and the staff was all 'LOL SURE WHATEVS"<br /><br />âHave you ever won a prize for said skit?<br />Most epic squeals when Kenshin(Rini) and Sano(me) were hugging the crap outta one another? In my mind that sounds about right XD<br /><br />âDo you plan your cosplay outfits waaay before youÂre meant to wear them?<br />Yes, no. XD Sometimes I just make what everyone's into because it's super fun and out of the blue. Other times I plan and plot and realy get into it.<br /><br />âHave you ever been to a convention and cosplayed?<br />Mhmm! Almost all of them. I'd say about 14 out of my 17.<br /><br />âWhat is the best thing about cosplay?<br />I just really love being able to go out of the box to express myself. <br /><br />âWhat is the worst thing about cosplay?<br />Anxiety about getting done. For my friends and I it always boils down to us moving last minute and still worrying about sewing on someone's sleeve inside out XD It's our trademark<br /><br />âWhy do you cosplay?<br />Self expression that I can share with my friends. Thanks guys for all the fun!!!<br /><br />âNow Tag 7 Other Cosplayers?<br /><a href="http://edwardcullenplz.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/e/d/edwardcullenplz.gif?3" alt=":iconedwardcullenplz:" title="edwardcullenplz"/></a> <a href="http://scoutplz.deviantart.com/"><im... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Presently I am experiencing a down.<br /><br />I'm sure no matter how I attempt not to make this a "baw baw" post, it's going to turn into it either way. If you're not in the mood, please stop reading now, I've just had so many things going down that I figured I might as well put it into words. IMHO facebook is too public here and the really important close figures in my life watch my da, so ya. It's something I really only want the handful of you to know without making it so public. Besides, it's not like anyone outside my group of friends really reads my da journal.<br /><br />Anyway, this whole quarter hasn't been very pleasant for me in the least. I'm back home, I'm still playing a slight catch-up with my classes, but all in all things aren't going as bad there. It sucks to have to drive to classes every day and be home with mom and dad, but I love them and I learn to appreciate what I have, you know? I think it's just taken me a long time to process all the overwhelming emotion that kind of washed over me regarding the entire situation. Perhaps I reacted too fast to the whole situation, but I was so emotionally numb that I could not have decided something else. I miss all of you up there and there's not a day that I don't go by thinking of each and every one of you. I try to give little messages of "hey I'm thinking of you!" but I need to do a little more than that, I'm aware. However, my mantra has become "Everything happens for a reason," which leads me into my next caveat.<br /><br />If I've been emotional lately to any of you, or excessively wtf I promise there's a reason. Of course this doesn't excuse my behavior, but I just want it off of my chest. Last week we found out that my sister may have cancer. I am not saying this in anyway to garner attention or anything in the like. If this was something that's just "one of a few things it could be" or someone in my family going overboard I would never post it. When I first found out I just assumed it was my mom overexaggerating one of my sister's symptoms. Then I realized the doctor was so worried that she's been given an appointment to see an oncologist. Regardless if it is cancer or not, what is wrong with my sister is most likely serious (along the lines of something autoimmune or leukemia). I'm scared to death guys, I don't like the idea that my sister is going to suffer. Of course it's far too early to say this, but the fear still tugs at the bottom of my stomach. I don't want her to die.<br /><br />As I say this, I don't expect everyone to drop everything and cater to me, of course not. No matter what personal distress you are going through, the world still turns. Live goes on. And well, in the huge population of this earth, your bad day is basically an insignificant spec. So, I want to say that I'm sorry if I've been weird or anything lately. I understand the world does not revolve around me, and I need to start realizing that I shouldn't expect so much out of people. Either way, that is my story, more or less. I hope it has at least given everyone a little enlightenment to what's going on in my life. <br /><br />If anyone has gone through this situation though and would like to talk to me, I would totally appreciate it. Cancer is such a powerful and scary word, you know? Anyway, I hope everyone has a good Halloween doing whatever they are (Within the limits of the law, y'all). I'll probably get really busy in the upcoming weeks depending on my sister's diagnosis and finals. Either way, you all take care, ok? Thank you.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So we're leaving for Otakon in 17 days. I can't believe it's come so quickly!! Needless to say, I have a lot of work ahead of me, as well as a lot of updating to do. I have (this past year) drawn quite a few stickers that I will be spamming all over da. I hope you're all ready for it, because I have about 30 finished. XD There will be about 20-30 more here done soon. Lets all root for me ok? <br /><br />Likewise, as I'm posting pictures, I am open for suggestions and requests. If there is a sticker you'd like to see drawn, or a sticker you'd like to own please let me know. I will be selling all of these at the con for $1 a piece or 6 for $5. If you cannot make it to the convention, I'd be happy to go ahead and mail you any sticker sets you'd like. All I ask is an extra dollar for shipping (unless you want other things, but we'd go into that!).<br /><br />Anyway, to keep a long journal short:<br /><br />1. Otakon FFFF (I believe we're in tables Q3 and Q4). Just look for BakaSquared in the Q section. It'll be me and <a href="http://zora102.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/z/o/zora102.gif" alt=":iconzora102:" title="zora102"/></a> , <a href="http://matoko-shizaki.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/m/a/matoko-shizaki.gif" alt=":iconmatoko-shizaki:" title="matoko-shizaki"/></a> and <a href="http://reddragonwings.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/r/e/reddragonwings.gif?1" alt=":iconreddragonwings:" title="reddragonwings"/></a><br /><br />2. If you see any stickers you want, have requests to make, just wanna make a comment, PLEASE DO! Feedback helps me more than you know.<br /><br />3. I am working hard and cannot wait to sell!!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ A lot of things lately, like why I've been so moody and needing to have AshleighAlone!Time (although it's really not been happening that much at all). I dunno what's up really, but I'm just tired of people. I'm so ready to sit in my room and have happy me time. I think a lot of it stems from the fact that I've had a busy last week and I'm ready for down time. Who knows maybe after this weekend I'll calm down a bit (I bet against it though, ahhh family time). At least tonight I've gotten a lot of time to myself and I'm able to calm down a bit.<br /><br />On the note of things I don't understand, I much don't find the reasoning behind the Maka/Chrona pairing. Not that it's bad or anything, I just don't understand it. XD I've been seeing a lot of the art lately and I'm kinda like "Hmmm." It reminds me of those good ol' crack pairings of the old days (omfg I'm still all about Sasuke/Temari). XD It's meant to be nothing bad or directed at anyone's art lately, I've just been seeing it a ton and I was really confused! Perhaps I'll learn soon enough.<br /><br />Next point: I don't understand how one can become so addicted to South Park. It's a disease I tell you, one that's taken hold of me recently and shows no signs of letting go. Perhaps when I'm brave enough and draw something I really like I'll post it up. As far as I know, DA is saying I have 99 deviantions and I really want my 100 to be really special. <br /><br />Something else that doesn't make sense to me: why did it take so long for me to read Hellsing? I mean hell, I finished it... in one day. But gosh why did I wait that long. It was TOTALLY worth the wait and I thank the upcoming fandom. There are so many things I could go on about, especially the Captain (I think that's it, the werewolf guy that works for Millenium that never talks, he's just so cool!). I practically spent the entirety of the series going on about how cool he was, how hard the Valentine brothers made me laugh, how human Alucard really was, and how Integra was sooo my favorite character. Hirano truly produced a classic series (perhaps a bit rushed at the end), but it was soo worth it.<br /><br />Eh I figure that's enough babbling for now. On a sidenote, Tekko went pretty well. I met some WONDERFUL people and I look forward to con-ing again with them sometime soon. <b> For anyone that ordered a commission, I should be starting on it in the next few days and for sure will have it finished in the next week or two.</b> If you have any questions, please just note me ^-^<br /><br />Thanks for viewing~<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Everything thus far in my third year of college has been going surprisingly well. Classes are happening and work is pretty smooth. I'm trying to avoid drama here, and for the most part it's been pretty good. However, things have finally gone awry. What's interesting though, is that it's with stuff back home. <br /><br />I'm not one that likes to post stuff like this on DA... but I figured it's the best bet (besides I don't use myspace and facebook is just too much). Anyway, I've finally realized that I've really ended a friendship. I suppose that things like this happen and should be expected... but I'm just taking it really hard. I feel upset with the way I handled things, and I wish there was a last opportunity to chat. Although, in my defense I do know that if I had a chance to talk to the person when I was upset... well I would have gone off the deep end and screamed and said some terribly childish things. <br /><br />Needless to say, I recently found out that one of my good friends really couldn't stand me... they said that I was obnoxious, driving them crazy, that I didn't care about them, showed off online, I was leaving them out, being a bad friend, and just not liked by this person because of it. It was sort of a shock to me... I understand I'm not the best person to call anyone (I... really need motivated to do so, and even then I can be shy about it). To this day I only really call people that I've called many times and have gotten used to it. As for the leaving out part, looking back I can see that I did, but it was never intentional. I just talked about what I liked and many times it was what everyone else really enjoyed and the others weren't into. As for the driving crazy... I don't really know what I did, I'm not aware of it, but I can guarantee it must have been something bad (no sarcasm intended). Instances like this make me think and rethink my personality... and I get into modes where I start disliking myself. I pick apart little pieces of myself that I hate, and it drives me crazy.Maybe I drive everyone crazy because I whine too much, I complain, I don't really know... I hope that I can improve myself in the future so I don't make the same mistakes again. <br /><br />I hope that I've not hurt you badly... I do care about you, I do love you, you were one of my best friends. I hope your life goes well and that good things will come your way, you will be blessed with a good marriage and perhaps some wonderful children. I'm not trying to act like some martyr or victim, by any stretch of the mind I'm far from it. I'm just as guilty in this situation and I probably could have done more to help and talk about it before breaking things off so quickly. But it did hurt to hear all those things... I'm sorry you think that way about me.<br /><br />All in all things will get better, and I'll live on to see tomorrow. But it does hurt a little at night once in a while when I think about what I've lost. ::sigh:: Well all emoness and gloom aside... thanks for reading this. I hope I didn't bore you senseless.<br /><br />One one last note: Good luck, I hope God blesses you with everything you've wanted, and if you ever need anything, I will be here to help if I can.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I just wanted to update before things got even crazier. XD My life is a bit chaotic mess at the moment, but not as mess, more of just getting buried in all the things I have to do. Starting today at 4:10-6:00 I am going to be taking my summer classes. Well I am taking one class online and the other will be meeting from the time I've given. Anyway, that is Monday - Thursday and that'll be lasting until July 25th. So while that's going on I'll also be working and doing little craft things on the side. <br /><br />     When I say craft things, what I'm referring to is convention items. Some of these are shrinky dink keychains, others are phonestraps, I should also have some bookmarks, shoes, and sculpey items here soon. One of the projects that I'm the most excited about has to be the core drills from Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. If you don't know what I'm talking about, the core drill is the little drill like key that Simon uses to pilot his mecha. It's my first dabble in sculpey and I'm pretty pleased with how it's coming out. Here are a couple of examples of how the drills are looking (mind you I haven't smoothed it or painted it yet). <a href="http://bakausagi.deviantart.com/art/Drill-base-1-89517950">[link]</a><br /><a href="http://bakausagi.deviantart.com/art/Drill-base-2-89518385">[link]</a><br /><br />So here's what I need you guys to help me with! What do you think is a reasonable selling price for the drills. I was trying to think of cost and efficiency, but I've never been really good at that. Each drill uses half an ounce of sculpey. Also I will be using acrylic paint and perhaps some sculpey glaze. Once I get the exacts on everything I'll post it up. Anyway, if anyone would mind helping me to get an estimate, that'd be amazing!!<br /><br />But ya, as you can see I'm UBER swamped. I think things'll be getting better once I'm actually in the swing of things. For right now all I can really do is work out the priority things first and then the fun things on the side. I will be attending Tsbuasacon in October with ~<a class="u" href="http://irukasdove.deviantart.com/">Irukasdove</a>, ~<a class="u" href="http://reddragonwings.deviantart.com/">Reddragonwings</a>, and perhaps ~<a class="u" href="http://littlecrowofkono.deviantart.com/">LittleCrowOfKono</a> ! I'm really excited about things and we're working on getting our artist's alley table at the moment. We're going to have simply a flood of items including original comics, commisioned clocks and shoes, phone straps, and a multitude of stickers. Likewise ~<a class="u" href="http://matoko-shizaki.deviantart.com/">Matoko-Shizaki</a> should be sending us some hats and plushies to sell, so I'm looking for a nice array of merchanadise. ^-^ Stop by and see us! Tsubasacon is in Huntington, WV! On the off chance I get some free time I'm ((probably solo)) also looking at perhaps visiting Matsuricon which is near Columbus, OH. ^-^ We'll have to see what happens until then ^-^;;<br /><br />Regardless, as you can see I've been totally busy, lol! As soon as I finish I'll post up the D.N. Angel, Kingdom Hearts, and Tsubasa stickers I've been working on. ^-^ I like to think they've come out well! I'll also update everyone on the status of the drills and anything else I've decided to work on.

                <description><![CDATA[ Seeing as yesterday was my 4th year anniversary since joining da I figure I should PROBABLY say something. Likewise I haven't updated my journal since last August and... well I was really tired of looking at "The Convention Collection" post. XD Thus I've concluded that I should theoretically post something new... really ANYTHING new at this point is probably a good indication that I'm not dead. So yes, I am alive and I have a good deal to talk about!<br /><br />Let's start with one of my personal favorite subjects and from what I see an important one that is definitely worth posting here. Anywho, since the start of the school year I have been a busy little beaver and running here and there. However, I am happy to say that I've had the pleasure of attending a wonderful artist's alley and I really had a great time. Tekkoshocon was this last minute decision that turned into something really great. My two friends and I had a nice treck to the Pittsburgh landscape for such a wonderful con. I was also able to sell a good deal of stickers and keychains, meet a lot of wonderful people, and most importantly get my name out there. The only sad thing is that I didn't have a business card when so many asked for one. Now I am happy to say that I do have an actual business card and I have printed a few copies. ^-^. <br /><br />On the convention subject, my friends and I are looking at something to attend this summer. Right now (as sad and disheartened as I am to admit...) Otakon seems quite unrealistic. We missed the artist's alley registration and honestly that is the main reason we were looking at going. Now with gas prices and everything else being so high, it seems like costs have outweighed profit and although we'd all have a great time, it might be safest to say to wait for next year. So we have come up with two alternatives. One is Matsuricon, a fairly small convention in Worthington, Ohio and about 2 hours from my house. The artist's alley has not opened yet, and although it is a small con, I think we'll have fun (it's fairly cheap). Another con we were looking into is Tsubasacon (in september) which is just as small and about a 3 hour drive. For my friends and I at this point, we are still looking into all of our options and ultimately going to decide what to do. If anyone knows anything about one or both of these cons please lemme know which you think is the most worthwhile. ^-^ Thank you! <br /><br />Bah I'm sorry for such a long update, but I had a lot to say. I hope our plans do end up working out and we meet some new people and sell some new stuff ^-^ If anyone has any suggestions for some stickers or keychains that we should make please just leave me a comment or note. Likewise, commissions are always taken and welcome! Thanks guys!!! ^-^<br /><br /><br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/hug.gif" width="38" height="15" alt=":hug:" title="Hug" /> My deviant family: <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/hug.gif" width="38" height="15" alt=":hug:" title="Hug" /><br /><br /><a href="http://reddragonwings.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/r/e/reddragonwings.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconreddragonwings:" title="reddragonwings"/></a> <a href="http://matoko-shizaki.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/m/a/matoko-shizaki.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconmatoko-shizaki:" title="matoko-shizaki"/></a>  <a href="http://irukasdove.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/i/r/irukasdove.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconirukasdove:" title="irukasdove"/></a> baka^4 forever!<br /><a href="http://littlecrowofkono.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/l/i/littlecrowofkono.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconlittlecrowofkono:" title="littlecrowofkono"/></a><br /><a href="http://brittish.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/b/r/brittish.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconbrittish:" title="brittish"/></a> 2nd in command!<br /><br /><br />Convention Account: <br /><a href="http://bakasquared.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/default.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconbakasquared:" title="bakasquared"/></a><br /><br /><br />Clubbage:<br /><a href="http://yaoifantasyclub.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/y/a/yaoifantasyclub.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconyaoifantasyclub:" title="yaoifantasyclub"/></a><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ All right kiddies!! There is a reason I posted this journal here. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> What I wanted to say is I started a new account. Well more precisely, I started a joint account. As my last journal has stated, we spent our first Otakon at an artist's alley table and loved it. Ironically we had little to no art finished and yet still was able to do rather well. I really am thankful to everyone that bought from and visited us. Thank you out there!!!<br />
<br />
Anywho, realizing that we've both worked on art and weren't sure where to post them, we've decided that our convention art and otherwise will start to be posted in a new account that we'll both run. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> I hope you all enjoy it and please visit it for the newest, cutest, chibi stuff (and maybe some others). Oh! and if you were wondering you can visit it here: ~<a class="u" href="http://bakasquared.deviantart.com/">bakasquared</a> <br />

I almost forgot, the collab is between: ~<a class="u" href="http://bakausagi.deviantart.com/">bakausagi</a> ~<a class="u" href="http://matoko-shizaki.deviantart.com/">Matoko-Shizaki</a> and ~<a class="u" href="http://reddragonwings.deviantart.com/">Reddragonwings</a> who are all awesomely awesome, so visit us all.

                <description><![CDATA[ OK! So, as I may have mentioned, I officially have an Otakon table!!! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> I am so wicked excited but nervous as well. We'll be in Table S1 from what it seems: So according to this map - <a href="http://www.richard-kim.com/Otakon/AA07Map.JPG">[link]</a> we'll be near the back. I'm really excited about it! Oh and when I mention "we" I'm speaking of <a href="http://matoko-shizaki.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/m/a/matoko-shizaki.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconmatoko-shizaki:" title="matoko-shizaki"/></a><br />
<br />
We both got a table together, and it's wicked exciting. Everything is VERY new and kinda scary to us. We know we aren't the greatest artists out there, but we're going to give it our best. So please, if anything - if you'd just like to stop by and babble to two very happy friendly fangirls, please come by! We should be cosplaying: Ishida and Ichigo from Bleach, Ikkaku and Yumichika from Bleach, and Raito and Near from Death Note. You may also see me as Anbu Itachi and toko as Sn Chouji. So PLEASE stop by and visit - XD Not even asking to buy, just to babble. Also, if you wanna help broadcast - just add this to your journal. ^-^ I hope everyone has a good con and comes to visit us! <br />
<br />
Oh also! My good friend <a href="http://irukasdove.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/i/r/irukasdove.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconirukasdove:" title="irukasdove"/></a> will be having a table as well. She'll be in the t's! Stop and visit her as well ^-^<br />
<br />
OH! We'll be having chibi stickers, bags, and a few random cosplay things - maybe some prints. Its a joint effort between toko and I - so some I drew, some she did. Here's a small preview - <a href="http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y166/bakausagi/yyhchibispreview.jpg">[link]</a> . If you have any quick requests before the convention, please let one of us know. ^-^<br />
<br />
THANKS FOR EVERYTHING LOVES!<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Ok, look, I know I am not the greatest artist out there, but I need some serious help. I plan to design an "Inner Hinata" costume for Otakon. I know...this seems so random and would simply be Hinata's normal clothes just dark. However, I wanted to know other people's opinions on it. I am not the biggest fan of dubbed Naruto...and moreso I have a personal vendetta against Yuri .... ok SasUKE's voice actor. I wanted to bitch out XD "sasuke" as inner hinata...and ya. So...would anyone like to help out? <br />
<br />
Basically what I'm asking is for a little contest of sorts: A design for the costume design. The prize: Me actually sewing the thing, no matter how hard it seems. Likewise, I'll draw you plenty in return. I also promise to credit anyone with their designs and when anyone asks, I'll tell them the designer. Please help!!! I love to costume desgin but I have no time!!! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ If anyone is wondering what I'm referring to, sit back and let me explain. I've been sitting back and thinking of the deepness that is my Naruto fandom. I am a rather deeply analytical person and I truly wanted to make the best out of my favorite and least favorite Naruto pairings. Looking aside from the straight fangirling, I have compilled a list of the top 10 Naruto couples: both my favorites and least favorites. Sometimes in something as large a series as Naruto it is simple to lose oneself in deeply crack pairings and straight fan stuffs. So... in this sense, I have taken the time to think and ponder on each pairing, wether I love it or hate it, and why. So...look out in this week and the next for both my top ten lists. I have created both and already finished some art. I'll be posting both groups simulatenously starting with 10 and counting down to one. Hopefully you guys will enjoy this!<br />
<br />
((I don't plan on bashing anything, so even if you're a fan of one of my hate pairings, you'll still get nice art)). Any questions, comments, or otherwise, please leave them. Thanks minna-san! ^-^<br />
<br />
P.S. Ok, obviously no one cares about the kiriban. Anyone want a few icons, drawings, or wallpapers, let me know. First person to reply will get stuffs ^-^<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ I'm ready to bang my head off of a wall and then some. My family...like seriously wants me to explode. My parents have been arguing from their waking minute this morning and its like... ZOMG just shut up already!!!!<br />
<br />
     Ya...I'm angst, I know it. But lets see...last post about me quitting art...I lied. Well...sorta. Blame <a href="http://matoko-shizaki.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/m/a/matoko-shizaki.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="matoko-shizaki" /></a> for that, its all her. HER I SWEAR IT. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/g/glomp.gif" width="47" height="20" alt=":glomp:" title="Glomp!" /> Ahh...hell, without art I'd be smooshed at the bottom and sad and...omg I'd be such a Kamui. X buzz at the moment, watched all the anime and bawled my eyes out at least 10 times. <br />
<br />
     WILL THEY EVER SHUT UP?! >.<; Ok, I totally give up. Lets see, before this journal post goes insane I want to make my Kiriban set at 2,300. You guys have got a long time...JUST PLEASE PAY ATTENTION. Nobody claims my first two. And to be honest, I wanna draw something. So anybody...if you want some art, please lemme know...I'll draw you something! I promise!!! <b>2,300 got it?</b><br />
<br />
Well...that's about it for now. Look forward to more pics, kay?<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Family life...is nowhere near what I imagined, well at least when it comes to the college level. I'm not really sure, what I want...and its so scary to think about what I'm going to do with the rest of my life. My mom's been pressuring me about what to apply to and where, who, what, when? I've come to the conclusion that I will never be able to get outside of this hold that is down on me... And with that being said, I've come to a conclusion.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
                I'm done with art<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
     I just... don't have time to doodle here and there when I really should be studying anyway. College is going to be a hell to afford anyway, and looking at it, I don't have any talent...so there's no use in dropping it. I don't mean to sound like I'm going to complain, I'm just giving some reasoning behind. This means, you may not see a lot of pictures from me before, ah, hell, its not like I had a lot of pictures in the first place, likewise no one wanted to view them anyway. Needless to say, I'm completely sorry for wasting anyone's time for giving me enough to look and try and help me. I want to thank everyone here who's ever given me a chance and I just hope we can keep in touch. Thank you guys...for everything.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Ok, if you haven't seen up to Gundam Seed Destiny 34, turn away now. I'm warning you! I swear I'm gonna tell it!!!<br />

<br />
     Ok...here we go ::deep sigh:: I can't believe GSD left where it did...and the fact that there is a large chance that Kira Yamato has seen his last days. Sure, I've always felt terrible for Shinn, but I think he is so damn selfish. You know the only reason he even dreamed of killing Kira was for Stellar ((did you not see what he said after the Freedom had blown?)). I'm sorry Shinn, but stop on the feelings and start realizing how sincerely dangerous Stellar was to those people. She is more at peace now then when she was forced to fight. She knew no other better life. Her existance was pathetic, plain and simple.<br />
<br />
     I loved Stellar, I really did. I was honestly sad to see her go. But...the things she was put through, that is what I mean by pathetic. And any Shinn fan out there, I'm not putting you down, and I'm not putting him down as a whole character...I just think these last few episodes he has been too damned selfish. All of those lives lost for one...Shinn it doesn't add up. Kira fought for the people he loved, yes. But Kira also fought for the betterment of the entire population. Which is why I can't see...why things turned out the way they did. <br />
<br />
     I'm sure the Archangel survived...they had to. There was no wreckage...unlike the freedom. I'm honestly praying kira pulled another one of those "no way in hell" escapes ...<br />
<br />
Ok I gotta go for now...but I shall return in my rant later <br />
<br />
<br />
T-T Where's my kira...?<br />
<br />
<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ O.O I am on such a Gundam Seed/ Destiny  buzz it hurts me. Funny thing is that I  have almost ALL of my pals getting  readdicted too. Thank god for  gsd...thank god for Yzak's new uniform.  :melt: I dunno why, but he looks SOOOOO  hot in it. I mean the scar's hot, but  without the scar his skin looks so  soft...i wanna pet it >.>;; :cough: Ok,  moving on from the yzak subject. Kira  finally makes his appearance in the  show to Shinn. I'm more or less like  "About friggen time!" ^-^;; Kira's the  angst, so with the added angst machine  ((Shinn)) we shall have like...angst  overdose. ...God I just hope the  AthuCaga-ness is good. I mean, they're  so perfect! <br />
<br />
     Moving on from gundam seed ((If  not, we'd be here for a long long  time)). I've actually drawn half the  character sheets for Identity Crisis. I  mean, don't get me wrong I have a LONG  way to go until I'll have a few pages  drawn, but its coming. To be brutally  honest...I feel its going to flop. But,  I'm still keeping hope. Some of my  really close pals have been telling me  the story line is really good and I  already have like 3 Tetsuya fans  ((Tetsu-chan is the smex baby)).  Personally Kei's my fav, but you know,  manga artists tend to have odd favs.  Needless to say, Kei was my first  character I came up with and will  probably have a kinda small role.  Although I do hope to give all my  characters tender love and care so that  they will not be pushed aside for some  other characters. <br />
<br />
     Speaking of the spreadsheets of  the charrys, does anyone want me to  post them? If I get enough interest,  I'd be more than happy to ^-^.  Tetsuya's needs a little more work,  Hikaru's is pretty much done, Maki's is  nearly there, and I have to start  Kei's. If anyone has any questions  about the story, I'd be more than happy  to talk about it. Next journal entry  will probably come with a synopsis or  something ^-^;; <br />
<br />
Oh ya, <b>no one hit the kiriban</b>. I know  its nothing great...but if anyone wants  a Kiriban, I'd love to do it for them.  So anyone....puhlease?<br />
<br />
Ok, next kiriban will be at <b>1,666 hits</b>.  I know its soon...but the way I get  hits, it'll take a long long while. So  someone...please be watching!  Ok...that's about it for now!<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ ....... *twitch* I *TWITCH* HATE  *TWITCH* LOSING *TWITCH* FULL *TWITCH*  JOURNAL ENTRIES!! *spazspazspaz* I  wanna cry! I had a nice rant going on!  ....I shall rewrite the whole thing  again<br />
   Ok, I really hate it when someone  tells me that I'm a good artist! A  really really nicely drawn picture! -_-  I like to think that I'm a "decent"  artist and a "decent" writer. I really  would like to be AWESOME at both...but  hey i get what I get. Back to the first  sentence of this paragraph. What am I  to think when I have someone else  telling me that "Eww! There's sooo many  mistakes and you "REALLY" need to work  on something." ;-; I really do try...i  really do! I can't help it I suck.  Honestly I am really depressed because  I feel I'm not worthy to draw but on  the other hand I feel even worse that  my friend is lying to me. *Sigh*<br />
     I'm really at the point where I  think it might be for the best if I  give up one of the two hobbies and put  all my time into one. Honestly I really  think that I'll end up keeping writing,  only because I am a much  better writer  than an "artist". Not that I am this  all holy author...I think I just have  more of a knack in it than drawing. I  think another thing that drives me to  this decision is that in the last  week...my art has been criticized 3-5  times. And not good criticism...bad  criticism. I know, I am not good at  taking it period...but I'm working on  it. Then one of my good friends  suggested that I post more because I  would get help. Question for all of you  out there. Why should I post more if no  one comments on my art? Seriously I  know I only have 2 pictures up...but  really. Even if you guys totally hate  my art I would really love it if you  left any type of feedback...please? <br />
     Well I guess things have just been  terrible in general. I want to pull my  hair out over family matters. Oh  well...Otakon is in less than 21  days...and I get to see Toko in 18. I  really need it I think. *sigh* Well I  really appreciate you guys putting up  with all of my rants. Now you need to  do me a favor. Check out these awesome  people.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Is it a bad sign when your sister yells  at you for drawing "anorexic anime  characters"?  <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /> I was working on this  picture of Hiro((oh gods, it  sucks...BADLY)). Lemme backtrack, I  started this pretty spiffy hiro picture  last night. I was really in a spaz to  draw. Eventually one of my pals told me  who to draw, so I started on it.  *glomps hiro* Did i mention he is the  best guy ever?! MUST STAY ON SUBJECT!<br />
     <br />
     *cough* So I drew his hair...ok,  some of his hair, his face, and then  the lines for his shoulders. Today I  added to it and started drawing his  body... I guess I must be  unproportional for the moment or  something. Everything I tend to draw  the heads come out HUGE  *cough*KURAMAPIC*cough* Needless to  say, I had to ask someone for some  "help". My sister likes to draw  cartoons((namely nicktoons and disney  characters)), so I asked her for an  "artists opinion" -.- Here was the  reply, "ASHLEIGH! ITS BAD TO STARVE  YOUR CHARACTERS!!!!" <br />
<br />
     It was bad enough when a ton of  people tell me that im good at  clothes...and um thats it. BUT NOW MY  OWN FLESH AND BLOOD! :sigh: Well its  not like I'm very talented at Gravi  style anyway. Maki Murakami-san is god!  *bow* She really is awesome. Its also  pretty funny to watch how her style  changed as the storyline went on.  Gravitation seriously is like the  king.....or well "queen" of all shounen  ai manga. I really LOVE the angst and  everything else that comes with shounen  ai....it really is the "perfect"  romance. TO ME THAT IS! <br />
<br />
     I could go into a whole discussion  about this, but I decide to opt out! I  don't feel like ranting. Guess what, my  family is doing just wonderfulllll.  *sarcasm* No, really...it sucks, but  um...Ya. I don't really want to get  into it. Mom's not as bad as usual, but  by tonight...who knows? Im getting  really tired of it. THANK YOU GOD FOR  OTAKON! *spaz* I NEED Otakon! I NEED  TOKO! and damnit, I NEED YAOI! Enough  of that for now. Thank you all for  viewing my wonderfuly-awful ranting. I  really DO appreciate it. Maybe I can  have the hiro pic up later or at least  the sketch. Well that should be enough  for now! LOVE U ALL! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/p/peace.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":peace:" title="Peace" /><br />

<br />
Oh! Im really short on fanart  ideas....any help I would really  appreciate. Who knows, maybe I can  actually take some requests...not that  anyone would want a request....BUT HEY!  I can try, right? Just throwing it out  there. JA! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Gomen for not posting a thought  earlier! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /> I guess I was trying to get  everything together that I completely  forgot about an entry. Ano...lets see,  I'm totally out of it at the moment  because of my sinuses. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/blownose.gif" width="28" height="20" alt=":blownose:" title="Blow your nose!" /> Thats how I'm  feeling right about now -.- However, I  am a bit more excited because Toko said  she might go to Otakon with me! We can  be like Momiji and Kyo! I would really  love that, seeing as I've been trying  to get a Kyo costume together. <br />
<br />
At the moment I am attempting to draw  Kurama....but as usual, its coming out  rather pathetically. I really cannot  draw yu yu style eyes. I guess I never  get the shape down right or  something..... well hopefully I'll let  you all see what I do later. For now,  Im going to go finish. JA NE! ]]></description>
