HAPPY BIRTHDAY UZUMAKI NARUTO!

AND HAPPY 10TH ANNIVERSARY TO THE SERIES!


I want to thank you guys for 10 years of pure, unbridled insanity. I have loved you, hated you, and finally come to accept you for the sparkle-ridden, crack-fueled midnight train to hell that you are.

I also have to thank you--for some of my dearest friends I would have never met without cosplaying from this series.

Here's to more years of psychotic mayhem with ninjas!

♥


(Karin, when I get to Columbia, I will be bringing you a cake. Seems appropriate.)

THIS.


KUBO. I AM SINCERELY DISAPPOINTED.


Rest in peace, both of you beautiful creatures. And especially you, my darling one, who didn't even get to fight....


Fuck you, Aizen.

Happy Birthday, Nara Shikamaru.

You've taught me that the secret to the world could be found simply by watching the clouds.


AWA was fantastic. I had a lovely time, and I made a lot of lovely friends. It makes me long for Ichibancon. Also--due to people I met at AWA, I'm getting back into Naruto cosplay again.


As I've come back home, however, I've noticed my health is slipping. My health's not been the best for a long time, but I feel it's even worse now--and the fact of con euphoria masking it for a few days really has made me take notice of how bad it's gotten. I need to find a way to get medical attention, but without insurance, that's easier said than done.

Work is troublesome, but I'm still pushing it every day. I wonder if this is where my stress is generating from? Or if it's really even stress anymore, and more of something greater that I can't control?

I hope I figure something out.

I promise when I get home tonight I'll write a long, and arduous dissection of all that's happened to me since I last posted.

The only thing I really have time to share at the moment is the costume I have decided for Katsucon--though I may freeze in it.



The Epicurean Daughter of Evil, Conchita. That dress is fantastic.

Also--I've fallen head over heels in love with the Vocaloid Meiko (though I've fallen for Vocaloid in general--Meiko is my favorite. I look like her, and have a vocal range that's comparable.)

I think 2010 is going to be a Vocaloid year for me--as I'm doing the Red Alice version of Meiko from Hitobashira Alice at Ichibancon as part of a group, and Neko and I will be doing Rin and Meiko respectively from Daughter of Evil (Neko gets to wear a big yellow dress--and I wear red armor. So awesome.)

It's past my time to be back from lunch--there will be more later.


4 days until Anime Weekend Atlanta!


EDIT: In other news.....DAMMIT, SHUNSUI. At least it's you and not one of those god-modding Vaizards.

Don't get me wrong, I love the Vaizard--but what's been happening recently has put my respect for them way down.

I'm so glad my job likes to take a pigeonholed view of my performance to decide if they're going to give me an interview or not.

The first week I was on the email server after being trained is not a good judge of my actual work ability. I'm making perfect scores on my quality now, does that hold any sort of importance?

I'm understandably pissed at this.

It's been a week from hell--the week started with an explosive fight with the entirety of my family save my brother because he wasn't around (though I'm sure he knows about it, as nothing stays low-key in my family for long.), the news I just explained being found out on Tuesday breaking my spirit a good bit, and then yesterday where I was so stressed I couldn't eat without getting sick, so I took a day off to try and fix myself.

I've still got a fic to write for the competition. I hate that I'm supposed to be helping, and I've not be able to do anything because of real life stress. I've got my idea, thank god, and a bit of a fic down--I just need to finish fleshing it out. Here's hoping it will actually pan out in a decent manner.

I had an interview with Wachovia on Tuesday as well--here's also hoping that pans out for something good. If it does, I'm going to take it as fast as they will give it to me.

On top of all this, I'm having my womanly affliction as well.

At least my Camellia kimono came in the mail. That was a plus.

Can it be Saturday, please? I would like to rest.

Why am I so amused I share a birthday with Hisagi Shuuhei?

I also share one with Faye Valentine.


Oh well--here's to being a quarter of a century old. ♥

So, one of my costumes for Anime Weekend Atlanta has been confirmed. There is beautiful fabric sitting at my apartment for it.

(  Cut because Huge picture is huge )

More when I get home.

Otakon was a blast. I'll post a huge post about it with all the pictures once I have them all resized.

I can't wait for AWA. Neko and I are going to start on cosplay for it next week--and since we'll be living in the same apartment, which will make construction and collaboration a heck of a lot easier.

For whoever wants to go to AWA--we have a club level suite in the Sheraton Galleria, at 149 a night. It's a HUGE room (and if you've stayed with us at AWA before, you know our Sheraton room's size, which is already huge--this one is bigger, and comes with Continental breakfast.), and also it's on the preferred member level (of which I am a part of), which gives extra perks. ♥

Once Otakon's dates are posted, I will go ahead and reserve for next year--maybe this time at the Sheraton due to my new member status.

A silly note--from Otakon, I bought lots and lots of car decals (since I finally have a vehicle to put them on)--and I can't wait for it to stop raining so I can wipe the car down and start affixing them. Frivolous, I know, but it makes me excited.

For everyone I still owe a fanfiction to--I will have them done soon, I swear. Moving, work and cosplay have eaten all my time and I haven't been able to do much. But, I promise through the month, I'll get them done. ♥

Also, for any memes I've forgotten, I'll fix those too.

Now, I am off to get myself some semblance of lunch. ♥

Have a nice day!

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who replied to my last post...I really appreciate all your advice.

I'm trying it all out. And I know it will help. Thank you again. I love you guys. ♥

To everyone else on my friends list, as well, I love you too. ♥


And...so I give something that really made me excited this afternoon:

( Bleach Spoilers like Woah! )

Have a good afternoon, everyone!

I wish I knew how to not make myself sick.

I'm stressing over small things at work, and over sub-conscious things as well; working myself into a veritable fever pitch.

Yes, Otakon's next week. I know I've still got 3 costumes that need to be fixed, and that one of them is a grand undertaking.

Also, I'm sure I'm not the only person who has ever forgotten to attach something to an e-mail at their job, or thought they attached something and ended up not actually attaching it. Simple mistake, easily remedied.

And I know I've got fictions due, fictions upcoming, and other things.

If I am conscious of all these things, why do I still bring myself to the point of nausea or migraine almost every day, without even realizing it?

I want to know methods to de-stress....anyone?


There will be a happier post later, I promise. ♥

THIS.

THE CHAPTER.


This is just a placeholder for a post that will be made about it later. I have to say that I am more than excited and pleased by this chapter. For many, many reasons.

THANK YOU KUBO FOR REMINDING ME WHY I LOVE THIS SERIES.

( Spoiler comment of reassurance to my friends who love Shunsui and Jyuushirou )

Dear god, today's Bleach chapter was awesome. And the Naruto chapter was decent too, but that's probably because I skipped Sakura's wangst fest, Madara's bitching and went straight to what I wanted to see--the Sand Siblings.

Wonderweiss and his Superchunk friend make me squee. ♥ Cosmic.


Also, I had a little bit of fan-based amusement at work today--by entering Bleach characters into the database as my created accounts for my practice work.

So, apparently Orihime is a student at Duke University wishing to be an Accountant, Ichigo is a Certified Public Accountant looking for work, Gin is a professor at Duke, and Ulquiorra is an Accountant from New Zealand.


Happy Birthday, Kubo-sensei!


There will be a longer post later about more stuff, but this is what I could fit into my break at work.

The state of chuunin right now reminds me of one of the countless reasons I prefer Bleach.

Fanbrats--this part of the series happened 2 years ago. The horse is dead. I don't think digging it back up and beating it a second time is going to make candy come out of it.


But, enough of that.

I've been gone from LJ for a while--moreover because of the last week, and how busy it was. I quit my old job because my hours were about to be cut drastically due to us losing one of our sites (the Hillsborough building, where I got 33 of my 37 hours a week.) I would have been on-call, like a bunch of the other officers. And On-Call doesn't pay the rent well.

So, I jumped to working temp at the AICPA. This is the professional society for Certified Public Accountants. It's clerical/data entry, and it's been a lot of fun. Also, there's a chance of permanency, so I'm going to be working toward that. $14.00 an hour also is nice, and at 40 hours a week, it will get rent paid and then some. And since I'm temp, I get paid every week.

Also, I've got a car now--a pretty little Kia Sportage; that two of my new friends from Animazement gave me. They were trying to get rid of it before they moved--it still ran fine; and I got to take it off their hands. ♥ It will be nice being mobile.

Happy first day of Summer everyone!

Oh FanplusFriend, why do you tease me?



...Beautiful dress. But also 200.00 dress, which while is a very good price for it, is not something I can afford at present...

But, it's nice to dream about it.

Details of the dress are here, along with lots of other nice things.

( Cut for silly rant )

In other news, I'm still sick...and I'm still uploading Animazement photos. So, they'll be up eventually. I got hit full on with the con sickness..so whenever they are done, they'll be done.

And to the people I'm writing drabbles for--those are in the works too. I love you guys!

Title: Festival of Lights
Pairing: Kurosaki Ichigo/Senna
Fandom: Bleach
Disclaimer: I do not own Bleach. Written for 30_kisses with the theme of 'Candy'.

( You know, that candy's for you to eat...not wear. )

I'd like to take this time to say Hi and Welcome to the people I met with the Bleach Friending Meme. ♥ I'm really glad to have met you guys! It's great to have new friends, and I hope you guys enjoy the junk I write here. XD


And keeping on that same vein--I stole a meme from winterfeelings, which I thought might be fun.

"The first TEN people to comment in this post get to request a drabble of any pairing/character of their choosing from me. In return, they have to post this in their journal, regardless of their ability level. If you absolutely can't write, I don't see why you wouldn't be able to offer drawings or icons or something instead."

I can't draw worth a crap at all. So, I'm choosing writing, of course. Go for it people, I'm open--leave your character or pairing, and a prompt you'd like :3

Though this week, requests may be a bit slow due to the upcoming Animazement convention.

(And even after ten, if I honestly get that many, I'll still write for you. Ask.)
