I know I haven't blogged lately. And I also know that I don't have a new layout yet. But see, I have very good reason. I've been transferring all my files to and fro from computer to computer. O_O Because *drumroll*
I BROUGHT HOME MY NEW COMPUTER!!! XD And his name is Lan. Just like I always wanted! XD XD XD
Installation and transferring has been a real pain but I'm happy that this thing is the fastest thing I've ever used ^_^ It just tells you how pathetic my old computer was. Lan is a Sony VAIO R505 EL, with a 30 gig HD, 256 memory, 1.13 Ghz pentium 3 processor- and is my baby :D So nothing exciting happens until I transfer everything over to him. ^_^ I'm taking him to college with me. YAY!
And just because Lisa did it:
 You are Kinomoto Sakura You are kind and generous, often underestimating your own abilities. Though you may not often know it, you have a lot of talent. Relying on your friends is both your strong point and your weakness. Take the "What Magic Girl are you?" Quiz

np: Hikaru no Go - Atatakai Hi
Lisa is SO AWESOME for burning more HnG episodes for me ^__^ with the soundtrack and other fun junk included. I can't stop watching this series it's just too annoying!!! XD
But letsee. A week after AX started? Lots of moping around and doing nothing, catching up on email, blogs, photos, and we all went to Pekkle's for a Furuba marathon! Which was fun. I finally got to play my CCS game, Clow Card Magic. That game is actually really hard @_@ But I'll beat it. Some day. I made a Natsu no Yaritai mon list for the summer and I think I'll upload it as I go. But yes, yesterday was productive! Since we're having Open House, I have to be out of the house by morning so I slept over at Mirae's and we got up to get tea, set our work schedule's with Anna, picked up an unexpected paycheck (wee $75 =_=) and came home to FINALLY work on our manga, INTERNAL. I'm so happy we're finally starting on it again and we fixed all the loopholes! But this is actually our 4th revision.... ^_^;; All previous 3 went to the trash or got lost in my garage somewhere. As long as we're both satisfied we're all good! So I drew some concept sketches of Lon and Lan, two guys from the story. And I learned that if I listen to Hikago music, I start drawing Hikago style o_O Because Lan started looking a little too much like Kishimoto-kun. And so I switched to Ayashi no Ceres music, and then.. he mysteriously transformed into Aki. Um. And Lon looks a lot like Tooya... with Muraki's hairstyle. ... ^_^; I'll scan in later.
Lisa you poor thing ;_; I hope you get better soon. Now I'm so scared about having my wisdom teeth get pulled out! >_<
Gen-nii! If you're going down in August: In Japan, Summer is one of the seasons when anime and manga events are mostly held. Recently, many events were held in the Suginami ward of Tokyo where has the most numbers of anime studios. Within the 3 days from August 10 (Saturday) thru 12 (Monday) at Sesion Suginami, an anime event that will enable the fans to experience a new type of film shows called "ANIFES" will be held.
If you're interested :D
I'm hoping the next time I post I will have a new layout. But I still need to finish my reports! Speaking of which, I have my prereg day finished in an hour! :D If I can do one day per day, I can be done sooner! And then I can start on my new layout! WEE! ^_^ But for now, it's off to work for me.

woo... my parents are still up... Um. I got back from UCI... on the 28th... Yes. The 28th. And after that orientation I've decided that UCI is a complete waste of my precious time and I'm going to pile stress on my already dying shoulders and graduate from that shithole in 3 years with a Studio Art major. And next up, because my dad brought it upon HIMSELF and this would not have happened to him if he had let me go directly to AISC, is that I'm going to grad school. At Art Center. For a few years.
YAY for 33,000+ per year for tuition!
At THAT point, I'm going to have no life. And what about college? (I had no idea SPJA was involved with Cal Animage) Sure. I'll join Cal Animage and I'll maybe take Japanese even though my language requirements have already been met, but I'm going to have basically a suicidal schedule. And all my free time goes to... Um. Say. Working out and drawing for AKG and cosplay can wait till um. Summer. Yeah that's it. Simply because I have nothing better to do.
And I finally got back (GOD it was HORRIBLE I felt like I was going to SCHOOL next week!) and started working my ass off on Rikku's stupid tank top. And it's really stupid because I can't even be cheap with the hot glue gun because it simply. Doesn't. Stick. So it's been cram, crash, shop, wood, saw, cram, crash. And after sleeping over at Pekkle's, working on Yuna and staff, going to Mirae's, swimming, working on skit, being thrown down, falling, getting fallen on, beat up, bruised, and swollen, I'm back to cram.

I'm in the middle of stringing the necklace that comes with the shikifuku. And then my brother walks in.

At 2 in the morning, I really do NOT need to know how 8 beads on a string could be so disgusting. Brain. Corrupting. Innocence. Crumbling. SLowLy.!.... X_X

As of midnight yesterday (I think it was yesterday, at least) I have taken a note of quite a few things:
1. The birdies begin chirping at 4:30 a.m.
2. 16 hours without food = very BAD for tummy
3. Opening your eyes too wide gives your forehead wrinkles O_O
4. Yes, you REALLY ARE the only one awake from 3 to 9 in the morning. So when you really DO see your friends sign on AIM at 6 a.m., it's only because they've left the computer on and their cat sat on the keyboard.
5. Uh huh. It's summer. And you know you love spending your summer taking out the perfect stiches you spent the last half hour ironing but so conveniently SNAGGED on some other part of the outfit.
So. Shikifuku status: 99% \^o^/ WOO!!!
And I passed out at 9 and woke up 5 hours later. And then RIGHT after I went over to Mirae's to do some MORE cosplay. But all I got done today was Kenji's Auron. Auron has long legs. Kenji does not. *irk* so his red jacket ended up being too short so we had to extend it.
So. Auron status: 35%
I don't have my own manga (but GOD I wish I did!)
The closest thing I've got is something I've started with Mirae (but have never put up) but she's the only one who draws anything ^_^ Call it laziness. Or maybe lack of self confidence. Or both. >_>;; =( But hopefully you'll get to go to AX! *crosses fingers*
It looks like the rest of my week will go something like this. >_< Caffeine. Need. GYAH!

Thank you so much Meimi-san! I'm glad somebody likes the layout! ^_^ Although I'm sure my X16 doesn't. Heh HEHHHH. ^_~ And because I didn't get to email you, I really think your manga "Bound" is wonderful! I kept wanting to know what happens *_* Tsuduite kudasai! Onegaishimasuuu!!! T_T I'm inspired to do my own manga now! Wehhh but I must cosplay ;_;
*boils two cups of tea*
No sleeping tonight. XD I'm going to finish that Shikifuku and nobody's going to stop me! To add to that, Mirae did my hair today so now I know it's physically possible to be Rikku without a wig! You're totally awesome :D I finished making Pekkle's Kyo bracelet today, we're being productive! So we plan on recording the Furuba skit tomorrow so I can use it to work with our music. Only 9 days left ;_; HAUUUUU ganbaranakya~!!!

Um. New layout.
dammit I hate it already. Next up. Heidi's Chiaki Layout.
... FUUUU Y_Y
Anyway, I died at work today but not as much as Mirae did since she actually woke up to go on time ^_^ I didn't get up until 12:00 today for my 11:30 shift so I went in at 1. All because I went to bed at 5 a.m., thanks to Mako-chan. ^_^ We kind of chatted nonstop for 5 hours about... just about everything. Mako-chan's so awesome. And now I'm supossed to be saving up every penny after AX and Animagic to go visit her in Japan this coming year so we can clean out the bookstores. Well, looks like it's time to use ebay again...XD
I woke up from the most horrible dream this morning. Yes, everyone, this is the FOURTH "OMG AX starts Tomorrow and I don't have ANY of my 7 costumes finished!" dream. And yes, I woke up, had a heart attack, and almost cried. I'm sooo pathetic. I'm SOOO going to work my ass off today. I PROMISE!!!
And you know WHAT? He's BACK, he's BAD, and he's about 1000x sexier than before. It's the new. Sakurazukamori. I can barely contain myself!!! >_< *SCREAM* Sideburns make him look SO much more EVIL! He's so. Apathetic. Emotionless. Passive. Expressionless. Blank. Uncaring. Just like Seishirou-san.
And I don't get my August ASUKA for another MONTH! ;_; NOOOOOOOOOO~!

You're Chii!
You're innocent, and your lack of common sense often gets you into strange (and possibly dangerous) situations. Luckily, you're surrounded by people who love you and who usually manage to get you out of the messes you cause. Your naive nature disguises a deeper agenda and purpose, however, and your worldly ignorance doesn't mean you're dumb.

I don't have the urge to play Go because I know I'll suck at it. But I'm learning it. Inevitably. I have no idea why watching middle schooler's play Go is SO addictive. It's annoyingly so. But if I don't watch it I would have never been able to figure out how to make Sai's outfit! But now that I have, why am I still watching?!
Okay. -_- No more Hikago until after all cosplay is finished.

Aya-onee! =D Sankyuu for checking lab coat prices for me. We need it for Hari-chan XD All we need is a long white knee length 3 pocket lab coat =) It's $15 online with $5 shipping, so now I'm kind of at a loss of what to do. >_< teehee.
And Excel Saga is the fooonniest thing :D Lee is super awesome for showing it to AKG crew today, and letting me borrow his R505 ^_^ When I get my own, I'm naming him Lan-kun. Wee! XD
Um. I have to go back to packing again... ;_; It really sucks because I messed up my room today for the painters and then they bent up all my plastic Chobits posters (which were easy to fix) and then I had to disconnect all my computer stuff and recconnect it all again on the other side of the room ;_; so after I finally get it reconnected I'm supposed to vacuum which I haven't done yet, but the WORST part is we're getting CARPET changed in a few weeks so I have to disconnect everything and move it ALL OUT AGAIN!!! T_T Weehhh!!! And ALL I did all day was wash blinds in the backyard in the hot nasty sun and I got like 3 shades darker ;_; I'm happy I'm building up my upper body muscles and everything but... ;_; But now all my junk is piled on the bed, I have nowhere to put it all, and- I can't find my Chobits Calendar O_O
*runs off screaming and wailing* ;;;_;;;
-oh wait found it. T_T The painters threw it out in the hallway!!! How RUDE!!! *sigh* I have no time to cosplay and what sucks the most is I really really am inspired to DRAW lately but I CAN'T do ANYTHING!!! And I'm supposed to be COSPLAYING!! T_T I'm absolutely positive at this time that I can't go to Kenji's karaoke tomorrow and if I can't well... I'll just have to cosplay now won't I! ...
*cry* And I SO wanted to make a doujin! T_T NYAAHHHHHH I can't TAKE IT ANYMORE!!! I don't WANT TO SELL THIS HOUSE!!! *bawl*

GYAHHH SUMMER VACATION IS OFFICIALLY HERE! And shooo many things have already happened XD There was work which was tiring and boring but I made MONEY! And I had to deal with my nasty skinned elbow from SANP =D Which is all starting to heal up now, so anshin shite! Most of the days have just been moving around heavy furniture and cleaning the house for the painters, and they're almost done with the house. I love Quick & Brite. I'm not endorsing it, but that stuff really does work XD It doesn't kill your hands but it breaks down all that nasty gunk on the windows like you wouldn't believe. So yay for Quick & Brite!
I was getting pretty tired of all the house work and I took a ride outside on my scooter at midnight one night. It was a really clear night and the stars were all out and I scooted my way around the neighborhood. I ended up in front of Wenting's house, but since it was midnight I didn't really want to ring the doorbell. So I just kind of went home, and on the way back I stopped at the park. I used to play in that part before 3rd grade and go biking all the time. That was a long time ago... and then while I was scooting home I thought I saw a cat. But it wasn't a cat. It was a racoon! =) I stopped and said Hi and his eyes flashed at me and then I went home ^_^ random act of the day.
Pekkle (you're awesome!) sent me this auction that I absolutely HAD to win ;_; But I didn't because someone outbid me in the last 7 seconds >_< NOOOOOO But then the nice seller emailed me and is willing to sell it to me for $129 including shipping T_T Bless you! I'm SO THERE!!! XD So yes. I get another Pocketstation too. *BWEEEEEEE*
And yesterday I wanted to go get my DOE picture scanned, along with my other portfolio pieces, and went to Kinko's. Only they really DIDN'T have anything bigger than 8.5x11 to scan and my picture is 15'x20' so I was really disappointed o_o and THEN the scary dude behind the counter said that each color scan would be $30 or more! And believe me, HELL no I am not spending $30 to scan a stupid piece of paper! So I went home and konked out for an hour because my cousin JOHN CAME BY!!! XD XD XD
John is awesome. He's 36 and he works on his own now and he's the smartest guy I know ;_; I talked to him yesterday for 4 hours! We talked about EVERYTHING from D&D and NWN *I'm so HOOKED! now *_* to cosplay to FFXI to PS2 and PC's and laptops and Ipac's and MD players and Mp3's and DVD players and Xbox hacked as a really cheap PC, and DDR to attention to realistic games and CS and BG and that led to fitness and losing weight and staying in shape and how much he worked out and when he started working out
and I sat down and took notes on dieting tips and workout tips and he taught me stuff about stretching and excercising and swimming and running and hiking and jogging and weights and working abs obliques quads lower back and legs *_* But then he had to go because it was 2 am ^_^;;; XD But he's so awesome!!! *hopskipfrolic*
I'm getting my room painted today. I have to go clean everything up and push it towards the middle of my room. Gyuu.... I wanted to make a doujin but I have to cosplay! FOCUS!!! >_< GYAR!
