OKAY, AND NOW:

LAS VEGAASSS~~~

Such a crazy place!!! D: And now I’m baaack~!!! Omgosh, everything is open until FOREVER D: (Except buffet~~ ;____; The one thing I wish was open forever) Also, we stayed at the beautiful Bellagio hotel!! It was so fancy and amazing!! We went there for my boyfriend’s sister’s wedding so they paid for everything! I was a bridesmaid and got to dress up and be fancy~~ D: Waaaah~~ It was so cool~ I was so spoiled!! I think I spent like 30 dollars total!! TAT His older sisters are so nice to meee~~

Now that I’m back though, everything seems so slow! No summer school, no fanime to prepare for, no vegas to look forward to…T___T …(His sisters are already planning to go back to disneyland in July though XD even though they already took me this year, haha~~ But that seems so far away!!) Oh maaaaan~ I haven’t drawn at all since fanime~~ D: I’m so lazy too~~ ::rolls around::

AND MY PRINTER IS OUT OF INK TAT;; :: Its a crisis!! I need to buy ink right away so I can send a very awesome person some not as awesome things in return for her super awesome gift!! D: (You know who you are!! I’m sorry it’s taking me so loooong~!! D: ::cry cry:: )

But anyway, that’s my up-to-date report XD
I’ll be taking commissions through paypal this summer, since I’ll have time on my hands. Note me if you’re interested! I’ll make a bigger journal about it later. (Prices will be the same as at fanime)

OKAY, BYE BYE~~
(I have to go back to watching Sixth Sense by myself D: )

edit: AND OH YEAH!! XD Quite a few of you want to meet in Japantown!! XD I’m so happy~~~ We’ll totally have to plan that this summer~~ D: It sounds so fun!! !!

I swear to God, we have the biggest asshole living next door. In my court, the people on the corner are having some kind of celebration and they’re playing Hispanic music in their backyard. So the neighbor in-between us is BLASTING some kind of fucking music with the Bass all the way up to counter-act theirs. I can’t even hear his music, the bass is just rattling our house and making our brains feel like they’re gonna explode. I didn’t even know the neighbors on the corner were having a party until I went outside to see where the fucking bass was coming from. He’s like a fucking 12 year old. In actuality, he’s a divorced, middle-aged, white-trash racist. He owns TWO fucking giant trucks, and parks one side-ways in front of his yard (not the part where his house it, just the yard) so that no one else in the court can park there. It’s probably like 100 feet away from his driveway and is nothing but a sidewalk and bark. He also put up a basketball hoop in the street where the fence that marks his yard and ours is, so no one parks beyond that. HE’S A NEW FUCKING NEIGHBOR TOO. WHO THE FUCK DOES HE THINK HE IS?? o__0 He came over one day when we had people over, saying we were blocking his driveway at like, 11 at night, stating he was a homeowner, not a renter. Like, he took one look at my dad and saw he wasn’t white and ASSUMED we were renters. We’ve lived here since I was fucking 3!! Anyway, we weren’t even close to his fucking driveway for one, and two HE DIDN’T EVEN GO ANYWHERE. I swear, I really hope one of the other people in my court hates him more than I do and fuck up his yard, his trucks and his boat that is eternally parked in his front yard. Here’s to hoping! (I can sleep at night knowing he does all this because deep inside, he really hates himself)

edit: *e-gasp* !!1 On a side-note, Season 2 Lelouch is EVIL!! D: OMG, and Rolo is so cute!! XD haha~ …and Suzaku T__T he’s scary now. Le was watching Code Geass and I got bored and started watching the end of the series with him, then I got interested in the series again we watched the first 4 eps of R2. Ahhh~~ craziness~~ I can’t believe this series is by Clamp o__0 It doesn’t feel like a clamp series. I has its moments, but I guess it’s kinda like how Chobits didn’t seem like a Clamp series either…

lol, this sucks XD

Poor Toshi, my laptop from 2003!! I still love yooooou~!! *3*

So much are to work on!! A commission for a friend and a bunch of unfinished work!! Ahh~~ XD ::work work:: I’m ditching class tomorrow *w* To draw and…go to Costco with Marla!! XD (Sounds so much more fun than Psych 101)

BUT OH MAN. New Avatar: Boiling Rock part 1 and 2 are online!! XD YESSssss soo excited!!! I wonder if I’ll get in trouble if I link it~ *____* Maybe I shouldn’t….::paranoid of an unrealistic-style internet police that monitors EVERYTHING I DO!!::

Anyway, here’s more of that TTGL WIP:

good times XD

Oh my gosh~ Sorry for the lack of updates over the last few days XD I’ve been busy de-stressing and doing nothing while my very talented (AT EVERYTHING) friend Marla worked on my fire-nation ver. katara cosplay for fanime!! XD haha~~ ::is such a moocher!!::

Ahhhh~ *w* ::fawns over:: It’s so cool!! I’m so excited~!! XD I do nothing but look at it alllll daaaaay *___* Look at how professionally hand crafted! All patterns altered from XL sizes to size ME. And she had never even sewn pants before…!!! Ahhhh, its so cool!! *___* ::admire admire:: We (And by we I mean marla, because I would screw everything up) still have to put on the trims and do the jewelry and stuff XD. I wish I could help! I really do *___* But she let me practice sewing by having me sew on button-snaps to a piece of scrap and….and I sewed on the same snap piece to both sides!!! TAT;; My first sewing ever and this is what happens!!!! TAT;; IT’S A SIGN TO STAY AWAY!!! ::traumatized for life:: ::cry cry::

lol XD

Also, The Artist Alley lady got in contact with me *w* Yaaaay~ She said everything’s fine and we have our tables X) I’m so happy now~~ Now I can work on stuff and not wonder if it’s all for nothing! T___T (Though it still might be! XD I hope people by my stuff this year too!! haha~~ I don’t want to jinx myself *__*) But YESSsssss.Getting ready for Fanime -08 official START POINT GOOOOOoooo!!! XD Gotta stop being lazy, commencing now *___* <—this sounds like I’m about to launch a gundam XD BUT BASICALLY I AM)

Why am I so hyper today?? First, I slept in and couldn’t go to my first class XD haha~ (Sorry, Robert and Marla!! But it was so funny that Robert was knocking on my bedroom window from the backyard to wake me up, hahahaha!! And I went to sleep at 11 last night!!! SO MUCH SLEEP…But still sleeping at 10!! ::failure as a human:: *A*) AND I just got out of an Anthro midterm that I guessed about 98% on!! haha XD But I won’t get depressed until I see the results! So whoo-hoo for now!! ::bounces around:: lol~~~

I’m really 22, I swear *A*

anyway, okay I’ll shut up now, here are some WIPs XD

click to see larger… if you want XD;;

Fanime lost our preregistered Artist Alley paperwork and have no record of us paying for our table in advance. Holy shit, I’m gonna have a fucking heart attack.

Edit: I found our receipt and emailed it to the main person *___* Still though, I hold absolutely no power whatsoever. They could easily say, “well, your name’s not written on it” or, “I don’t remember the receipts looking like that.” or anything to cover-up the loss of our paperwork *___*;; I’m still so worried about it!!! Ahhhh~~~ please, let us get tables, even if I have to freakin’ pay for them again T___T;;;.

we didn’t get to pick our location again for this year either =__=;; ahhhh, why do we have so much bad luck with these people???

So, I watched Fushigi Yuugi from ep 32 or something up until the end the other night. Omg, it was so epic for me when I was like 12, lol XD I had the fattest fangirl nerd crush on Tasuki. (He’s my all-time favorite anime character probably, haha. Those kind of things stick with you FOREVER) But yeah, the end made me all depressed for a couple hours TAT. Man, That show is CRAZY and TRAGIC and SOOOO RETARDED. Hahahaha. Especially how Tamahome’s english voice is SOLID SNAKE. HAHAHAHA. XD Man, When I first heard Snake’s voice I was like, “WTF…??? TAMAHOME????” Hahahaha. Metal Gear Solid was probably soooooo less hardcore for me because of that XD. (All I could hear snake saying was, “MIAAAAKAAAAAA!!!” lol) But yeah, tonight I started watching Legend of Basara with some of my friends now too. That series is so awesome! Anime from that time period was so much cooler than it is now. Anime now-a-days is so dumb =__=;; Like Fucking lucky star!! I swear to god, anime these days just pisses me off. BUT TOMORROW we’re having a TEKKAMAN BLADE MARATHON!! Haha, ’cause I’ve only seen Tekkaman Blade II and my tekkaman blade fanboy friends freak-out because that OVA series disgusted them, haha. Geez. I’m such a nerd. But, most of all day and yesterday we’ve been watching Scrubs. We finished the first season and everything!! Hahaha, that show is so hilarious. The relationship between Turk and JD is like, the greatest and funniest thing ever. It’s my goal to see the whole series!! ::determination::

Anyway, here’s a little kimono-wearing, sake-serving Chopper that I took from another picture I’m working on with a Japanese style Sanji XD
