First step in making a better Paula cosplay is, I believe, a wig. If I'm brave enough, I'll ask my roomie from last year to help me make a better dress. >_>

Paula is from Earthbound (and the blonde girl in my icon). ♥ I love her so much. :3 I tried to cosplay her at Anime Boston this year, but I felt that it could have been a lot better than it was, so my goal for next time is a better Paula!

Dunno if anyone on my flist would be interested, but a couple of friends and myself have set up some Twitters for Persona 4 characters. I'm Chie. :3 I can link whoever wants to see.

FIRST IT WAS PERSONA

NOW IT'S ODIN SPHERE

So close to extra-mega-awesome hugs, and yet so far away. D: I will survive!

It's been... only slightly short of arctic here lately, and I was getting ready to leave for Skye's dorm so we could get dinner. (I also have a knack for choosing the wrong gloves for the wrong temperatures. >_>)

(6:31:14 PM) Me: Okay, suiting up for my arctic expedition. XD
(6:33:22 PM) Skye: XD
(6:33:28 PM) Skye: wear your good gloves, please?

He's cute when he fusses. x3

Well, today started quite nicely. And then Skye's bike was stolen. And then I learned that my great-grandmother fell down some stairs like three weeks ago and has bruised ribs to go along with her lungs that now have some fluid in them.


-_-

Dear Santa... Dear Santa, This year I've been busy! In June I helped papercrownqueen hide a body (-173 points). Last Thursday I caught a purse-snatcher who stole jelly_fic's purse (30 points). In November I stole makichan's purse (-30 points). Last week I gave change to a homeless guy (19 points). Last month grass_angel and I donated clothes to the needy (11 points). Overall, I've been naughty (-143 points). For Christmas I deserve a moldy sandwich! Sincerely, fae_elric

WHAT DID YOU DO, BECKY. I WANT TO KNOW. XD

It's been a little while, yeah? XD My bad~ Though life is still good. I still get along with my roommate, Katelyn, which is awesome. I've only had one day where I overslept and rushed to class, though I was still on time, thanks to my handy-dandy bicycle! Have I mentioned that before? Skye left his bike at home because there wasn't enough room to take it up here when he moved in, but his parents brought it up for him later... as well as one for me! :D They just had an extra bike laying around that nobody used, so they're letting me use it, and it is super nifty. x3

Went home last weekend, and it was nice to see everybody. I was getting along with my younger sister, it was bizarre. O_o But also nice, and she gave me a bathrobe to use, which is cool. x3 Also got to have lunch with my aunt, uncle, and great-grandmother, which was very nice, since I surprised them with my being home again so soon. And~ next weekend is our kite festival~~ \o/ So I'm very excited to see the fliers who are coming, as it's been a very long while. And I didn't think Waltraut was going to be driving down again next weekend (since she's in Camas this weekend), but apparently she will be driving down, which means I don't have to spend money on train tickets after all. XD~


Finally, I've decided on a cosplay for Sakuracon, which I am most definitely going to attend, since I'll actually be in the city. x3

Here she is~



Her name is Rhyme, and she's from a game for the DS called The World Ends with You. (It was my first DS game, so much fun. =o)

So I got moved into my dorm and everything... It's actually a decent-sized room, and I like it a lot better compared to the rooms everyone else that I know has. They're all stuck in Mercer, and those rooms are pretty small. >_> And my roommate, Katelyn, is pretty cool, which is definitely nice. Apparently she built herself a computer for Christmas so she could play games on it, and it's going to end up in our room eventually so that she can educate me on video games. XD

( This is how stuff went~ )

1. Comment to this post.
2. I will give you a letter.
3. Think of 5 fictional characters and post their names and your comments on these characters in your LJ.


( My letter is L! )

I signed up for a meme! But no worries, I'm too lazy to tag anyone. XD


But anyways, in this meme you list eight things about yourself, so that is what I'll do.

( Click me! )

That last post only contained maybe half of the total pool photos. >_> We were really bored. XD

( Yay? XD )

So... we were waiting for dad to come pick us up, and were bored, so we went to the pool. But we were still bored, so we decided to play with our camera and plush toys.

( Ignore the hands behind the curtain. )

Am back from Kumoricon! Had tons of fun~ Because we paid for VIP entry, we got to have dinner with a chair from Sakuracon, Richard Epcar (aka Batou from GITS), and his wife Ellyn Stern (of whose shows I have seen none). They were all really nice, and actually remembered us if we ran into them (and we did). x3

But anyway, photos. xD

( Yay photos! )

Stay tuned to see what happens when we get bored by a pool!

Was tagged with the letter 'h' from Arathe in the 'ten things you love' meme. x3

If you comment I shall give you your own letter. >_>

1) Hot chocolate. But not with marshmallows, that makes it gross. My aunt taught me to make it with half water, half french vanilla coffee creamer.

2) High-speed internet. Makes everything easier. XD

3) High school. I really did like to go, and all the teen drama was kinda funny. >_>

4) Having a debit card. I can buy things for myself just like a big people! =o

5) Hate memes. I find them to be terribly funny.

6) 'Honey'~ I dunno why, but I like calling Ritsuka that. XD

7) Honey (the actual stuff). Peanut butter and honey sandwiches = ♥

8) Hard candy. *crunchcrunchcrunch*

9) Having a nap. >_>

10) Hugs! I love hugs. x3
