                <description><![CDATA[ Well, I have finished my Samus cosplay and just in time. Orientation for my new job is tomorrow and I'm going to be focusing in that for awhile. ^^ <br /><br />As for my personal life, Charlie just got his green card so I have been going all around town trying to change my last name. I would have done it sooner but I read on the internet that someone did it and then they said there was "Conflicting data" or something lame like that. Better safe than sorry. <br /><br />Also, we are looking for new things for the apartment. We got some gifts for some things but we still need a vacuum, microwave, TV, and stuff like that. We are looking into TVs but I don't know. My mom doesn't want me to spend too much but we found a nice TV at Best Buy for $1,000. It's a 40" Samsung with 120 Hz, 80,000:1 contrast, 1080p, everything we were looking for. My mom tells me to buy a piece of crap TV and then in a year when it breaks you can get the new TVs with the new graphics and everything, but I don't know. Charlie is going to call the apt place today, they keep saying they need to verify where he works but it's like, how long should that take? It's been 2 weeks! We are thinking of just applying at another place, especially since the other place has no application fee. I don't know, if I have to stay in my mom's house one more month I will scream! XD But in the good news we could get like $2,000 dollars saved up if we don't spend too much. Eh, we'll figure it out. <br /><br />In cosplay/gaming news. I think I know who I want to cosplay next. Cosmos from Dissidia! ^__^ I know the PERFECT wig to buy. It's really expensive but it's the perfect length and has the right color and curl to it and everything. That and then making a white dress, it shouldn't be that hard to do, but I say that about every cosplay and then I realize that nothing is easy! XD<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well, I finished my Princess Lana cosplay! (YAY!) so now the only loose end I really have is Zero Suit Samus and Reimi. I hope to finish those at some time but for now I am focusing on Otakon 2009. We bought a special gun for CC Cloud but unfortunately it has "moving parts" so I don't think we can bring it to the con, better safe than sorry, besides, you don't really see Cloud shoot too often, I re-checked all the FMV and there isn't much of him shooting. We are also working on the baton like thing and that is almost done, I am so happy with the color of spray paint we bought, it really looks perfect! ^__^ Other than that I went to a local convention Anime Syracuse as Princess Peach just to see how it would work. I now know I NEED to hot glue the crown to the wig, it fell off REPEATEDLY! And worse, I came in fourth place and when I went to accept my prize (Mario Kart DS candies! <3) the crown fell off AGAIN and one of my jewels broke off! X__X I WISHED I had some sort of super glue with me but unfortunately I did not. So the Princess, was crownless! XDD I have to make sure that doesn't happen at Otakon. Also, I found that moving around as Peach, is very difficult as lace likes to get caught up on corners! XDD Charlie would go somewhere and I would be a mile behind! XDD Charlie right now is working on a huge Mario head made of paper mache. It's really cool and I have complete faith that it will look awesome when he is finished. We tried to plan out where we can put holes in to breathe and all that good stuff. We have like a month and a half, it's really starting to get scary how much we have to get done! X__X Well, I'm off for now, later! ^__^<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I didn't update my DA journal for a year? X__X How crazy is that? Ok, well, anyways to update. Since the time of my last post, things have been a little crazy. I left my husband and moved in with my mother, fell in love with my current guy and right now we are trying to get a life together. <br /><br />In cosplay news, I am currently inspired in too many places! XDD I fell in love with 4 designs Zero Suit Samus, Before Crisis Aerith, Reimi from Star Ocean 4, and Princess Lana from Captain N. I blame it completely on Charlie, he keeps playing all these games and I start watching and then I get hooked, although I have always loved Metroid. With Lana that is just something that I love because I grew up during that time, Captain N was a big thing for me. ^__^<br /><br />Other than that I am trying to get ready for Otakon. I plan on bringing Crisis Core Aerith and Princess Peach. Because Charlie wants to join me, I am trying to finish the Crisis Core Cloud I was already making and make a Mario cosplay. I went to a local costume shop and looked around, I got some ideas for the Mario hat, mainly I think I need to buy a foam that isn't too think, not too thin that I can use for it. I really want him to have a Mario hat and big clown nose and huge mustache, lol, I want it to be mascot like without wearing a big fake head. XDD<br /><br />Well, I think that's enough from me, later! ^__^<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Ok, I was tagged...like 2 months ago. But I always try to answer people, even if it is really late. X___X Sorry! Oh, and by the way, I totally had to look up the word "aleatory" for anyone who takes this quiz thing..<br /><br />Aleatory means "pertaining to luck", and derives from the Latin word alea, the rolling of dice. Aleatoric, indeterminate, or chance art is that which exploits the principle of randomness.<br /><br />XDDDD Ok, now I am ready. XDD<br /><br /><br />TAGGING RULES:<br /><br />1. Post these rules.<br />2. Each tagged person should post 8 aleatory facts of themselves.<br />3. Tagged people should write a Journal\Blog about these facts.<br />4. In the end, tag and name 8 more people.<br />5. Go to their DA pages and comment saying that they are tagged and hugged<br /><br /><br />FACTS:<br /><br />1. Well, when I was younger, I used to have a lot of lizards and toads as pets! XDD Pretty much a tom boy growing up. X__X<br /><br />2. I can get crazy in the right setting. I have a picture on my sister's computer right now of her staring at the camera and me biting her head....we use it to scare away creepy perverts on AIM! XDD<br /><br />3. I have really bad ankles, like honestly, I can't stand for too long without needing some sort of pain pill and at night I can crack them forever! XDD<br /><br />4. I enjoy nature and love going out for walks. I could spend all day outside, and usually, I did when I was younger. ^^<br /><br />5. I love to sing, as a child I would pick up any one of my toys and start to sing a song about them...my sister hated me for it. XDDD<br /><br />6. I used to make theatrical plays in my backyard when I was younger. We made all these fan fic crossover video game plays and I acted as Yoshi and Bowser! XDD<br /><br />7. When I was younger, I wanted to be a marine biologist. I loved dolphins so much. I had posters of dolphins all over my room. ^^<br /><br />8. I was the hugest Sonic fan when I was younger, I read the Archie comic, watched both of the cartoons that were on at the time and had all of the games. Now a days, I still have love for Sonic, and I hope a good game will come out, but so far nothing makes me want to play Sonic games, ever since Sonic Adventure 2. Sonic unleashed looked good, but I am scared about the whole were hedgehog thing. I'll always be open to it though.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ This journal entry is needed! X_X Well, I'm working on my Crisis Core Cloud cosplay for Kevin. It's coming along well I guess, I'm at the point where I need some buckles and stuff for belts so progress has stopped for now. I started working more on my Crisis Core Aerith. I decided to make the pattern on the cosplay out of fabric instead of paint. The paint was kind of chipping if I sat on it and stuff so I want to change that! X_X I can't be walking around a convention and be losing part of my costume to chipping! XD So I'm working on that, the top should be done today, and then the skirt, who knows! XD Well, that's all from me for now. I'm off to work on the top! ^^<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I was tagged! Christmas meme time! XD<br />
<br />
What do you like about Christmas?<br />
Hmm, well, I like Christmas mostly just for the warm feelings you get and spending time with family. Also it's kind of like the beginning of winter, so I view it as kind of a winter welcoming occasion too. ^^<br />
<br />
What do you not like about Christmas?<br />
Shoveling all that wonderful new winter snow! XD<br />
<br />
Best Christmas experience ever?<br />
Hmm, that's a tough one. I think this year was pretty special. My sister gave the whole family cards with our gifts, and each one had a heart felt message inside, that's what means the most to me.<br />
<br />
Worst Christmas experience ever?<br />
That would probably also be this year, me and my sister made ornaments with a picture of us and our dad inside. This Christmas was the first one since his passing, so it was pretty sad. <br />
<br />
Did you have christmas dinner with ALL your folks this year? Just with parents (siblings too if you have them)? Or did you spend it alone? (I feel REALLY sorry for you if ya did.)<br />
This Christmas I pretty much went everywhere! XD I celebrated first just with my mom sister and husband, then we all went to my Uncle's place to celebrate with him, my aunt, and my grandma and grandpa, then me and Kevin went to see our little 3 year old sister(sister in law to me) and his mom, and then we saw Kevin's brother. It was a busy day! X_X<br />
 <br />
Ever get kissed under a mistletoe before? (tell me a few details)<br />
I don't think so...I mean maybe, but I guess it wasn't that memorable! XD<br />
<br />
What is the true meaning of Christmas to you?<br />
Just to give to others and be around family. ^^<br />
<br />
Believe in Santa Claus or no?<br />
Well, I mean, he does show up at the mall every so often! XD But me believing in Santa was pretty much ruined for me when I was like 3 or 4 years old. My sister was 4 years older, so when she found out he wasn't real at like 8, she had to ruin it for me too! XD<br />
<br />
Did you have a white christmas (that means snow ppl) or did you not?<br />
Yeah! TOO white! X_X There was like awful blizzards all of December, now the ground is almost back to green because we've gotten rain for the past few days here. But on Christmas it was white. ^^<br />
<br />
Would you ever give to people who needed Christmas more than you? (be honest, please.)<br />
I always try to help, I usually don't have a lot of money or anything, but if I can help I try to.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well, I'm thinking about doing a new cosplay...and it's not Aerith! O____O Hehehe, I know, crazy talk, but it's true! I'm not going to say names yet or not because I never like to open my mouth until I'm 100% sure that I am going to do it. So for now, I leave to get ready to look for supplies. If I come back successful then I will announce the new cosplay! XD Look at me, sounding all formal. XD Well, now I'll announce my leave, lol, talk to you guys later! ^^<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Man is it hot outside, 12 at night and it's still like 80 degrees. We've been having kinda a cold spell here for awhile so I guess it's cool that summer came back for one last blast of heat. Tomorrow I will feel it's full fury! XD I'm going to the NY state fair where I will spend all day baking. It will be cool though, they have ice cream and all sorts of things, I'll find a way to keep cool. Plus I'll probably be having too much fun to notice. I love the fair! Hopefully I'll get to see some fireworks too, the fair usually sets some off on certain nights, I hope this will be one of them! ^_^ Well, I'm off, later! ^^<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ This is my first journal entry, because this is my first day here, lol. Yeah, I know I sound corny right now but give me awhile, I'm really new to this. My sister and a friend of mine told me this would be a good place to come and put my picture and stuff but something new is always a tad scary. What are people going to say? What should I expect? I'm trying to expect some negative comments and some positive, thinking in my head what they will be. Oh well, don't wanna think too much. I posted my first night in the church pic today, based on it's responce I might post more. I never really thought of what I was doing as artistic, my sister was always the one with the drawing ability. Oh well, I'll see what happens on here, you don't know unless you try, right?<br /><br /> ]]></description>
