Right, so YaoiCon is in a week. Not stressing out too badly, except for the fact that we only have 3 people in the room. Rachel posted a note on the forums so hopefully someone is looking for a room. As far as costumes go, I'm just about finished. Should be done hopefully this weekend with the last costume I'm doing for the con. And I'm waiting for a wig to come in, so hopefully, it'll get here on time before we leave Thursday. EDIT: Holy Shit it got here fast! I paid for in on Thursday morning, and it got here on Saturday from Minnesota. Damn, I like this dealer. Costume list as follows, new costumes are asterisked: ~*Elizabeth Bennet/Darcy (Yes, as in Pride and Prejudice - I finally finished my gorgeous dress) ~Vice ~*Female Zoot Suit/ Vampire hunter (play off of my Victorian vampire hunter) ~Ema Skye ~*Ema Skye, yukata version ~Austria (tentative, since I don't know when/where I'd wear it or if anyone else is bringing Hetalia) I'll be working security again, so if you want to find me, I'll be either be roaming around, setting up something, or organizing lines. Can't wait to see everyone again! Tags: cosplay, sewing, stuffs, yaoicon Current Location: in bed Current Mood: sick Current Music: Y-Con masq soundtrack - Shh! It's a surprise!

Right, so Disneyland began a week ago. Good, hot, humid fun, but it had a bit of drama. Then again, which trip doesn't? Friday: Got a delayed flight with Jacob's father and younger brother and got into Anaheim around 10:30. Took a horrible ride on Super Shuttle to the hotel, which was right across the street from the smaller entrance to the parks. We got up to the room and found out the driver stole Jacob's dad's $150 pen...and the losers insisted that it couldn't be returned. Loss of money due to gas, tracking, blah blah bullshit blah. Finally got a hold of the DM who was able to guarantee that the pen would be returned either late that morning or the next evening. Got to tour around Downtown Disney for the last half hour or so before closing at midnight half asleep on our feet. Saturday: Traveled around Disneyland for the first part of the day with the immediate family and grandma. Granddad refused to go due to the heat. Not gonna lie, itwas 72% humidity most of the day and I had packed for cooler weather...pants and 3/4 sleeves make for a very disgusting day. Spent the afternoon in California Adventure. Never been there, and it was a lot of fun. Some of my new favorite rides are California Soarin' and Hollywood Tower of Terror. Had a super early dinner at 2 (dear Lord, why do people eat their last meals of the day so damn early?!?), a nap to cool down in the late afternoon and spent the rest of the evening in Disneyland. Got to see the fireworks show from behind the Rocky Mountain Run Away Train Ride. Got some awesome pictures of that, once they finally get sent to me from Jacob's dad. Sunday: Did my shopping with Jacob in the morning. Mostly Christmas for the family. Met up with the whole family, Granddad included, for a ride on Small World...believe me I wanted to shoot myself about half way through. I hate that ride. But we were there celebrating Jacob's dad's birthday, his grandmother's birthday and his grandparents wedding anniversary. Basically they pulled the, 'but it's my birthday' whine on me so I didn't really have a choice. Meandered through Disneyland until 2, went to dinner at the Rainforest Cafe. That place is so tasty and awesome. They really need to get one of those in the Sacramento area. Got to swing through Adventureland to get through a couple of my favorite rides and a 3D Muppet ride. That was pretty hilarious. Saw the fireworks show with Jacob in front of the castle, and apparently it has music and narration to go with it, along with a flying Dumbo and live Tinkerbell. Damn, I've missed going to Disneyland. Finished the day with a ride on the Buzz Lightyear shooting gallery and the storyland Alice in Wonderland ride. That thing is like an acid trip at night. I got to fly back on Monday and spent the rest of the day relaxing back with the creature comforts of home. That was probably one of the best comfort of the whole weekend. The only thing that really sucked was that the Haunted Mansion and Space Mountain were closed so they could get them ready for the Autumn transformation. It's my favorite setting of Disneyland and I was just a week off of the opening. Definitely wish I could have been there for that. I'll post up pictures when I get them. Tags: disneyland, report

I've been very lax on reporting what's been going on in my life recently, so here I go! Only one really splendiferous thing happened recently. I GOT THE JOB I WANTED!!! I officially work for ROC Physical Therapy as an aide. I started part time two and a half weeks ago for training purposes and as of today, I am a full time employee. I'm so excited because this is exactly what I've been wanting to do for the past 9 months, and just to have this security is so comfortable, especially after not having a job for a couple months. Thank you IRS check for getting me through that mess. But I love the job so far. I'm using what I've learned in school, putting it into application, learning something new every day and loving the hell out of it. Best part is, it's half days on Tues/Thurs, starts later on Monday, and off earlier on Friday. I can't ask for a better job at this point in time.

~Fanime is in less than 2 weeks....dear Lord, why?!? I have too much to do! Many costume fixings to do and not a lot of time to do it in between studying for finals and trying to find work. Getting 8 hours of work every two weeks is not good. XPPPP Need to make a resume too. ~Sewing day today. Hopefully I can get the last parts of two of my costumes finished today. That would be great, cuz then I can spend the last little bit of time doing short fixings and modifications on already finished costumes and spend some serious time focusing on finals. ~Quick problem. I can't find my lab coat for Ema anywhere. It went into the wash a few weeks ago and it never came back. Methinks the dryer monster eated it. Is it possible for me to borrow one if someone has one? Please let me know soon so I can know whether I need to go out and buy another lab coat asap. Knowing the dryer monster, he'll probably spit it back out into the never ending laundry circulation after I don't need it anymore. He's a bitch like that. ~Jacob and my year anniversary is coming up on the 16th. Super excited. I don't know if we'll do something on the exact day since he works pretty much all day on Saturdays, but I'm sure if it's not then, then we'll do something at a later date. Ok, time to get sewing. See you all at Fanime, if not sooner! Tags: busy, cosplay, help plznthku, jacob, school, work
