I've been seeing and hearing some things about the upcoming Disney movie "Frozen" lately. As I like to research something as much as I can before forming even a basic opinion, I set about doing that. What I've found out makes me think the movie's probably going to be fun (Idina Menzel as Elsa/The Snow Queen? Yes, please!), and I'm actually super- ( Read more... )

I was reading the comments on a blog about the Little House on the Prairie books today, and came across one that rather bothered me. The commenter said that she'd be keeping her child free from the 'princess culture, as well as wizard culture, Narnia culture' and a bunch of other things that might be considered pop culture right now, adding that ( Read more... )

True story: I almost had an asthma attack on my way to choir yesterday. Why? Because someone decided he needed a nicotine fix from a cigarette right outside the entrance to the  building I had to walk through (despite there being signs saying it wasn't allowed within 25 feet). As a result, Lucinda and I were late to class as I had to use my inhaler ( Read more... )

Recently, my little brother and a friend of his decided they wanted to make the weapons of all of the members of Organization XIII (from the Kingdom Hearts games). Then my little brother decided he wanted to try to pull together an Organization XIII cosplay, meaning he needed at least the coat in addition to the weapon (not to mention the wig for ( Read more... )

I can't believe this! Five months ago I sent an email to The New Era (a magazine published by the LDS church for teens/young adults) after I read an old article that helped me feel peace while I was having a hard time dealing with some hard stuff and memories. Today, I was reading The New Era online (as I usually do every Sunday), and decided to ( Read more... )

One of my favorite shopping websites to check out is JBOX.com. It's a site where I've been able to find lots of cool Japanese stuff (that I had a hard time finding elsewhere) for decent prices....and it's fun to read the side blog that's on the home page. So, last night I was reading the side blog, and one of the topics covered was accents and ( Read more... )

I apologise for not being online since last Wednesday. I've been running around like a chicken with it's head cut off since...well, last monday, actually, and from about last wednesday on, I've been very exhausted in the evenings (so much, in fact, that I have a hard time stringing together a coherent sentence after ten PM...if I'm lucky). It's ( Read more... )

First off, I'd like to apologize to friends (irl and otherwise) who haven't heard much from me lately, or if they have, it's been one/two-line texts/messages. I really am sorry that I've been so lousy about communicating lately ( Read more... )

Okay, so the anime con that I went to down in St. George was awesome! I went with a few friends (one was dressed up as Azula from Avatar, the other was Isuzu (Rin) Sohma from Fruits Basket, and I was Tohru from Furuba, also XD), and we had a blast! The panels were really informative, the guest speaker was Jerry Jewell, who voices Kyo from Fruits ( Read more... )
