So omg. Otakon in two weeks.

I'm getting more and more excited as the time gets closer because I'm gonna see L'arc~en~ciel - meet up with some people from the Ghetto! <3 - wear the Mario/Maria costume & the Henry costume~! (Complete with Eileen doll! :D)

I never plugged this here - and maybe I should, although I don't know how many people actually read this damn thing... but anyways...

My writing journal!! Where I put writings and crap. O_o HEHE. Yeah anyways... yeah...

I haven't had anymore 'car getting towed' adventures lately, but TEH ULTIMATE CLASSIC happened at the house on the Fourth of July.

(Ronnie's sitting at the table by Heather and Duane and Zak is up getting a drink or something -- Ronnie has an empty coke bottle and he's chewing on it)
Zak: (says something to the extent of) Ronnie, you must be good with your mouth.

I wish I had a camera - Ronnie has dark skin, but you could so see all the blushing.

Ronnie: Uhm yeah, you know it.

Duane and I cracked up.

The Final Fantasy VII game is going to be continued tonight. We just got to Costa Del Sol for the first time. :D

I got a second hole pierced in my right ear last Sunday. It was kind of a spur of the moment thing while my mom and I were out putzing around. I found a visor for my Mario/Maria costume and a rhinestone 'M' --- Ronnie and I are gonna have fun at Otakon. :D And we're gonna see L'arc~en~ciel!!!! YAY~!!! XDDDD

Last night was amusing. I went over to Zak's and we didn't put a visitor parking pass on my car RIGHT when I got there. (They NEVER come around to tow/they don't enforce it at all) --- We went up to his apartment so he could show off his paintings that he brought back and his 489578934752834758934707 figures. ("Here's my hot Padme, my hot Aayla, my hot Mon Mothma... wait... what?") And then just as we're standing there getting the parking pass, we hear someone yelling outside about a black car being towed -- We gave each other that one-second "OH SHIT" glance that you usually see in the movies and he runs out of the apartment in his barefeet as fast as possible. I just stood there like 'omgwtfbbq' ...the next thing I know, I hear him yell up from below the balcony.

"Heather... HEATHER."

I looked down at him. "Is my car towed?"

"No. I stopped them... Get your keys and my keys and come down here."

"Where are your keys?"

"They're sitting up on the shelf by yours."

So I put my shoes on, grabbed my keys --- mind you, I was frantic for some reason --- I didn't see his keys by mine. But I did see his keys hanging on the wall beside the shelf. One set of his keys. -_- I grabbed those and dashed outside, making sure the door was locked on the way out.

I got downstairs and he's leaning against my car, which is pulled out of the spot I was in, black tire tracks in front of it. Dark, black tire tracks. Zak took his keys and looked at them...

"This is the wrong set of keys."

Somehow I knew that when I grabbed them. He didn't blame anything on me though. He told me that we'd worry about that later because he wanted me to drive my car around the block --- he was afraid they fucked up my transmission when they ripped my car out of the space, IN PARK. He jumped in the car with me and we drove it around the block... it felt normal, so after him saying, "Are you sure it feels okay? It's driving okay right?" 89479288943 times. We parked it again and went back to the front of the building, where we pondered how to get inside his place.

We ended up at Glen's place, the maintenence guy. He was a cool guy, very nice. Little did I know that Zak and seen him a lot more than I thought he did. (Mind you, Zak moved in to his apartment in January.)

"Hey Glen... I'm sorry. I did it again."

"Oh brother Zak, again? Damn... *chuckles*"

"I know this is like... the fourth time... I'm really sorry, man."

Glen just laughed and grabbed the master keys, then walked back with us and let us in.

We ended up at Chili's later that night and Toys R' Us --- where I found a DVD with a bunch of ORIGINAL TMNT cartoons on it. When we got back to his place we watched a couple episodes. I forgot how much I loved that damn show. <3333 Crazy night. I'll always to remember to put the pass up in my car when I get there now.

In other news -- Wednesday, Ronnie and I went up to the Community College to take placement tests. We both did pretty hot on our math (Ronnie did better than me. XD) --- and good on our English. We were supposed to allow two hours for the English test... it took me 22 minutes. I got a 99% on my English test. They kept saying that was awesome, then they handed me a letter about making it into Honors. :D

I had too much fun correcting the essay on the test... I guess it's cause I like to write. ^_^

Anyways, all I have to say is TGIF. I don't think I could last another weekday. And we get Monday off. Maybe Ronnie and I can get through some of FFX-2 this weekend. O_o

Zak is in Minnesota until Monday. So I've actually had time to work on costumes~ XD

He called the other night and I could hear his parents in the background. They're so cute. <3 "Is that Heather? Ask her who shot first~"

Anyways, I've been working on my Rapid 99 costume. I almost have the 9's done for the gloves. Now I just need to get the gloves~ heehee~ I already know the hair is going to be the hardest part. And Ronnie still has to find his pants so we can put the piping on them. At least we found the L bling for his Luigi costume. XD

I can't believe Dragon*Con is in two months! And I still have to work on Mario & Dead Aeris. The Murphy (Boondock Saints) costume should be easy as pie -- I still have to harass Sarah/Connor about that. :D

The Silent Hill 4 soundtrack kicks major ass. I can't wait for the game - and you know me, SPOILERISHLY LITTLE THING I AM. I know many parts of the game that I shouldn't (reading from people who already have the japanese release) -- and it just makes me want the game more. It sounds so awesome. :D

Alright, Chinese food is here. Time to go eat! KINGDOM HOSPITAL IS ON TONIGHT~~~ FINALLY!! XDDDDDD <3333

Whenever I listen to this cd, I think of Heroes Die/Blade of Tyshalle. I really want to read those again. I'm still in the middle of AGoT -- which I don't mind, because it's a good book -- but I still want to read HD & BoT again. I just haven't had any time to read at all. I finally found A Clash of Kings though. After months of searching. -_- I can finally get through AGoT so I can read the next one. XD

Stover got a blog. I'm gonna link to it on the side because he rules and he's amusing.

We're going to see Harry Potter tonight - me, mom and Valerie. It'll be my second time. Then Zak wants to go see it again on Sunday because he has a huge crush on Hermione thinks it's an awesome movie, which it is. Erin already saw it twice (once with me, Z, Shan and Ronnie) and then again with her Mom last night --- so we'll be even by tonight. MUAHA~ But she's a HP nerd, so she'll see it way more than me.

I can't wait for I Love the 90's. That's gonna kick ass. I saw the commercial the other day and I almost cried because I actually remembered EVERYTHING they mentioned. Vividly. -_-

Muaha~ I'm gonna go write now.

Look kids! A new layout! :D It's pictures from the Fanforce picnic that took place yesterday. Much fun was to be had even though a few shitty things happened - a little bit of rain, a few tiny misunderstandings & other stupid things. But all in all, it was quite fun. Erin and I got to laugh at Zak as he climbed a tree to retrieve Brandon's ball. I told him to climb the side WITHOUT the holly bush under it... but he didn't listen. -_-

In other fanforce news, I got the basic layout and site online... I think the picture suits the group quite well. MUAHA.

Work is finally slowing down. I got to post a part to UV on the 3rd - it was only a little filler post though. I really need time to write because I want to get the next one online - it's a good one, very EVIL. :D

I realized how little time I have before Dragon*Con. O_o! And I have all these costumes to make. I still have to finish Rapid 99... and I keep getting all these new ideas. >_< I decided I might just fix up a Hannah a little and only wear that one to Shore Leave in July. Since I wore it at D*C last year, I'll give it a rest there. I'll have a bunch of other costumes for D*C anyways~ muahaha~

Alright, I really need to write or get to bed or something. ;D

Anime Mid-Atlantic this weekend! Well, only Saturday. But Saturday = cosplay and dance. :D I'm just gonna wear my Battle Royale costume -- I'm gonna make a weapon this week though, a scythe, so I can be Mitsuko. <3

I'm starting the cult of Fredryk Phox -- Zak showed me, Elizabeth and Erin, Phox's video on ebaumsworld.com and I laughed my ass off. He's supposed to have a new video up on ebaum's on Friday. You know I can't wait. I even made an icon of him -- I haven't put it on the LJ yet. But I will.

Fredryk Phox = awesome.

Zak also showed us this kid with minnie mouse sheets singing this scary rendition of a song called "Aicha" -- and some hilarious G.I. Joe dubs. "PORKCHOP SANDWICHES~!!!" Ebaumsworld.com = gold.

Work has been so damn busy. Luckily, the season ends in a couple weeks... so everything will slow down. And then I'll be able to write again. (I haven't posted a part to Urbania's Void since the 11th! >_<)

I'm almost done with a few original writings too. :D

Alright, I'll write more later. I have to go work now - break is over. -_-
