... although I still have basically an entire costume to make HAHA. Oh well it should be fine. As I don't like to post progress pics, have a Rimi hair bow test:

I should wear my hair like this everyday lol. It actually does stay up on its own without wire or anything. I learned the secret to resilient bows from making Tsukasa! :D

So Yuki is pretty much done, Chaos;head is done (I'm excited btw 'cause the skirt is really cute!!), Sai needs props, and Neiro and Warp are nearly there. Just need to start Meiling. :x Although I found her staff today at Party City. It is a pimp staff. 'Nuff said. xD

K back to work.

( Update )

So like most people doing the group are either rooming with me or will be seeing me most of the weekend but when do you guys want to wear it? I was thinking that it won't be hall cosplay and it'll just be for a photoshoot. Although if we want to do hall cosplay together it may be something like Saturday morning (before the Fruits Basket shoot). Thoughts?

Happy birthday to miao_ji!!

For you~


( Here's also some Dekaranger picspam :p )

Awww Taylor Swift and her new single~

Once again, she (or rather her music video director) has crafted a sugary sweet portrayal of the unrealistic dreams and childish insights of many high school girls across America with more cliches than you can shake a stick at and yet I STILL LIKE IT &hearts &hearts &hearts
BTW, have these kids never heard of AIM?

Also, in watching this video, I was referred to the music video for Miley Cyrus' "Climb" (which was terrible) featuring scenes from her movie, that I know want to watch badly because of
THIS KID GRAHH SO CUTE
And surprise! He was the same guy as Taylor Swift's love interest in the above-posted video. As you all know I'm sure, Taylor and Miley are good friends so this is kind of interesting... Apparently, he and Miley dated during the filming of the movie but he's stated to the press that he has a "crush on Taylor". ;)))

( NOT A SHOW FOR KIDS, I TELL YOU )

Fanime pic-heavy post coming up tomorrow most likely!

A somewhat stressful, but still fun, Fanime has passed by! I had an Artist Alley table for the first time and learned that Hetalia stuff sold super well but I still don't want any part of it lol. I also had steak two times in one weekend, which was ridiculous. xD

( A quick rundown )

( Update )

EDIT: Nvmind, we got our Warp back lol.

For other available characters, see this post.

The 1st ED song for Chrome-Shelled Regios, "Yasashii Uso" has three different versions, one for each of the main female characters (Nina, Felli, and Leerin). The version that plays is decided by which girl was prominent in the episode. I'm a little sad that it's changed to the 2nd ED now so I wanted to just talk about how cool the 1st ED was!

It's a duet between "Chrome-shelled" (I used to think it was the seiyuu for Layfon but it's not) and whichever female character. The versions for Felli and Leerin even have slightly different music in the background. So the single for this ED has 12 tracks! It's ridiculous but awesome. There's the original version with the guy singer only, Chrome-shelled w/ Nina, Chrome-shelled w/ Felli, and Chrome-shelled w/ Leerin. But then there's also the duet version of whichever girl without Chrome-shelled, and then the duet version without the girl. And finally, there's the two different purely instrumental tracks.

So I guess it's not too great unless you've seen the series (meaning, me basically) but here's a link to download it: megaupload

...through Karaoke yay. Ugh life has been really kicking my ass. School and whatnot.

But here's some stuff I managed to finish for Fanime:
( Will I make any $$$? )

I'm planning a ton more. Hopefully I can finish themmm.

Thanks to you, I am well on my way to becoming a SUPER SENTAI OTAKU. orz;;;

And the torrents are downloading so fast lol.

FYI, Super Sentai = Power Rangers in America so I'm watching like the original ones. It's interesting to see how they changed and adapted it for American TV. I really used to like Power Rangers Ninja Storm but it CANNOT COMPARE to Ninpuu Sentai Hurricanger!!!

( VS )
Oh my life.

( Spoilers )

Also, still enjoying Chrome-shelled Regios lol. I figure it's probably largely due to the younger guy/older girl relationship.

As requested by miao_ji, I was taking a picture of every outfit I wore for the last few weeks. I ended up missing a few, though.

( Work it )

I submitted my application to Pasadena Art Center today. I'm gonna go drop off my portfolio tomorrow.

If I get in with a decent scholarship, I'm 90% sure that I'm going to transfer there this coming Fall.

I doodled something in class and later colored it the other day. If you're fujiwara_san, you might like it. ;D



It could be a bookmark or something huh... xD;

So I was in Art History class today, very sleepy, and at some point during the lecture, I look down to find that my blouse is like completely open. Seriously all unbuttoned. The buttonholes have always been a bit large but HOLY CRAP. And so I hurriedly buttoned it but I feel like that was why my professor was giving me a strange look a few minutes before. Thankfully, I don't think he's straight lol.

Also I re-did that Tsubasa/CCS fanart I did a while back.

( I think I like it a little better now )

You know, this might, might be pretty damn good. Although that Korean woman's accent is pretty apparent from that one sentence she says, she's not too shabby.



I was really active on MyAnimeList this morning lol... some people write reviews that exactly illustrate how I feel about a series. It's kinda cool. :D
