Ooh La La

So hey everyone (And by 'everyone' I mean myself, blogging only for self-satisfaction and to force myself to beleive that people care about me on the internet)! I have some GOOD NEWS.

My dear friend Jaime and I are going to Disney World :)

We leave on December 5th and are home on the 12th (5 days before Tron!). We're going to WDW for 4 days and Universal Studios for 2 (Wizarding World of Harry Potter, anyone?) , and I AM SO EXCITED. We found this chart online that says the sightings of all the Disney mascots and where... I swear I'll find you, Shang, even if I have to camp out in the China Pavillion ALL DAY.

It is my personal goal to NOT see Mickey.

So anyway, more to come later when I'm not sitting around in bed being useless and I can actually use my brain to document this excitement.

In other news: The Central Canada Comic Con is in about a month, and I don't have to rush to finish any costumes! :D I've got my Ramona Flowers cosplay, which I may tweak or I may just say, "Screw it" and leave it how it is, which is... good enough, and I have my Yuna cosplay! I still need to make the earrings for that and I guess I never got a staff. Heh. BUT ANYWAY. Can't wait :)

Pounds left to lose for Ideal Kuja weight: 6. Awwwww yeah.

BTW, I bought my wig for Kuja! It should be arriving in the mail this week if Canada Post decides not to be a tool and keep it for two months like my Yuna cosplay!

[A Poem by Jenna]

Something Important I Would Like to Discuss.

I would like to discuss emo kids. I mean, the ones that force themselves into the gloomy disposition of the stereotypical emotional. You know the ones. The ones who, when you ask them how they feel about rainbows, say, "I'd like them better if they were.... Black." and swoop their hair to the side (actual example).

Maybe not necessarily 'emo' (what an outdated term. What is this, 2006?), but that whole subculture of teenagers who complain about their lives, have extended Facebook names, if boys, dress like girls, and if girls, look like little boys who look like girls.

I would like to ask a question regarding these children: Why do you claim to thrive in the darkness when all of your profile pictures and albums are of you making out and saying how much you love your girlfriend? Do you pretend to be one, or are you just a living, breathing oxymoron? Discuss.

A Message On Homework For People Who Feel They Need Some Motivation

I am here today to give people some advice about their homework.

I put off my math homework all week because I was planning on doing it today, because I didn't think I was going along to the family gathering, because my parents said I didn't have to. Then this morning my dad was like, 'We're all going to go instead', and I was like, 'EF', so now, I think I just won't do my homework. It doesn't help that my math teacher is a douche, but that's okay. I'll survive. I have three months left, so if I really cared about getting my mark up (It's at a comfortable 68. As long as it doesn't get any lower), I could. Not that math matters to me at all. See? I really don't care about things as much as anyone else.

The moral is, if you care about your marks, don't put off homework until the last day. Because something WILL come up that you think you have gotten out of. Put it off to the second last day at least.

Now, in the words of Ness' mother, "Eat some [food] and scoot up to bed!". The best parts about that is, you can enter anything you want as your favourite food. "Eat some babies and scoot up to bed!"

Cuba.

I'm going. With the chamber choir.

SEE YOU, SUCKAS.

I Am Alive

I have also lost 6lbs since the musical started. Now that the musical (The Mikado) has ended, I will gain 10 lbs back.

NO I WON'T I PROMISE.

I'm in Vegas right now, on vacation. It's so fun.

I don't know what else to say right now I am super tired.

Meow.

Boys.

It's Time to Talk Cosplay

That's right, the new year is upon us, and as such, we must discuss how this year is looking for cosplay.

I am cosplaying as Yuna from Final Fantasy X. Although I would be able to make her outfit, I just figured with the commissions I've taken plus my own other pretty fabulous one, I would not have the time (nor the funds) to make this costume. So I bought it on eBay for 50 bucks (there was a sale!) It came in the mail today and it looks absolutely wonderful, I just need to paint some things so that they're perfect. :) I'm also going to purchase a beautiful brown wig and green contacts for my right eye.

I'm also cosplaying as the young Simon from Gurren Lagann. Also Lagann. That's right. Cardboard Lagann will make an appearance. You have no idea how excited I am. I'll be able to walk around the convention center in a robot. Kick-ass.

I'm doing 3 commissions: An adorable Gothic Lolita dress, Advent Children Cloud, and Fran from Final Fantasy XII. I'm very excited as all of these will help me hone some skills in some way or another. I'm not taking on any more commissions, though, so if you wanted something, you've missed out. I will consider it if you live near here and will pay for everything up front, however. It's mostly a fund thing for me, rather than time. Although once I get a legitimate job, it'll be more of a time thing rather than funds.

So, Ai-Kon 2010, I'm coming for you in full force. Beware the iron fist of my awesomeness!

On another note, this Salad for lunch Soup for supper diet is going pretty well. I can feel the difference when I actually eat breakfast in the morning, although I've had to start out really small, like a piece of toast, because I just get sick if I eat too much since I'm not used to eating breakfast. And I have been keeping up DDR every other day. I haven't seen a huge change in my weight yet, but then again, I haven't really checked, so we'll see! Wii Fit tomorrow!


ALSO: I can't post pictures for some reason. Someone smart should help me. The video box opens fine, but when I click on the 'add image' button, it does nothing.

Life is a Competition and other Epiphanies

Today, someone in choir said, "Life is a competition." And you know, that isn't true. Unless life is a 'See Who Can Die First' Competition. In which case, we're all losing.








That's actually all I have for now.

Sometimes it doesn't let me upload pictures.

My List of Things to Accomplish What are in No Way Related to New Year's Resolutions

Okay. This is what's happening (Hey, I said I was going to start blogging about serious stuff!):

1) Lose ~15 lbs (Before Ai-Kon). Not because I'm upset with how I look. I'm upset with how I feel.
2) Beat Final Fantasy XII
3) Go on a REAL date.
4) Learn to 'Enjoy Everything'. Yotsuba knows how to do things.
5) Find someone who appreciates how smart and witty I am.
6) Get a job. Now, this isn't MY fault. I'm being discriminated against because of my hair colour. You jerks.
7) Produce decent art for once. Instead of just doodles.
8) Paint more.
9)

This list will be updated as I think of things. HA HA HA.


Things Happening in January Only for the Reason of Experiments, Each Related to My General Health, Because My General Health is Awful:

1) Drink a water bottle every weekday. Monday to Friday. A whole bottle.
2) Eat salads for lunch. As often as possible.
3) No junk food on weekdays. Exceptions for puppy chow and the occasional eating out. In real restaurants. Which brings me to me next point:
4) Cut back on fast food. As little as possible. Sometimes you just can't help it. Okay so, No going to fast food places on my own free will.
5) No Kraft Dinner and no instant noodles. Not that I have those very often.
6) Real breakfast. Like eggs. 2 eggs. Scrambled. As opposed to NO breakfast.
7) DDR every Monday, Wednesday, Friday. Wii Fit every Tuesday, Thursday. I understand Wii Fit is under mass public scrutiny. But I love Wii Fit. So suck it.

I think that's it.

Today, Today..

I am going to do stuff that isn't just sit around on the computer. But I'm going to do fun things. Like sew a cute plushie, or make some clothes for my BJD, Emery, or work on some homework.... FUN homework. Fun homework that involves watching Watchmen again.

Feel free to be jealous of my exciting and completely non-stressful life.

That is all.
