I got an outfit picked out! I decided on giving up on the dresses [though I have so many and would actually looooove to wear one again. I might not seem a girly-girl often, but I looove really getting dressed up!!], and ended up finding stuff for a formal version of Sai from Naruto. I just gotta go thrift store shopping today to find a pair of ( Read more... )

I really should be cleaning today like my life depends on it, since I didn't do any cleaning yesterday, instead watched the Transformers movies ( Read more... )

So it hit me the other day... I was in the car with mom, just randomly thinking about stuff, when I remembered that my friend, Josh, in New York wants to do couples cosplays with me. So we were trying to think of some, and I just thought of one that I already have a costume for, and he would loooove to be the partner. Father Leon and Sister Esther ( Read more... )

Ever since our FOR last week, labor has been through the roof at work, and they are doing all they can to keep it low. Never mind that the weather is making it so people don't want to leave the comfort of their warm house or offices, so they aren't going out as often anymore right now. It's not like it's snowing, it's just freakin' cold, so the ( Read more... )

After fighting it off for so long, it's finally hit me. We had our F.O.R. at work yesterday, with an overall scored of 95 out of 100. I could tell the sickness was coming a couple days ago, when it was starting to get difficult for me to breath, but yesterday it kinda hit me bad, and this morning isn't that great either ( Read more... )

They might have completely ruined the corset that I just bought at con for $130.... I tried to get pictures of the damage, but they didn't show up very well on my camera phone... If you look closely, you can see where the reddish stains are on the material. The top image is of one of the tails on the ivory [or rather, once-ivory side... it's now an ( Read more... )

Who knew it was so freakin' hard to find CLOCK GEARS?! I've checked two Michael's, since someone on the NDK forums said they saw bags of them when they were looking for leather work, and found absolutely nothing. Tried finding errector sets [No idea what those are, mom was the one asking for them, saying there would be gears in it as well] and they ( Read more... )

I purchased a BEAUTIFUL corset at the con, and now all the sudden, after seeing the Steampunk jewelry being sold at the same booth, and just how popular some of that stuff was, I'm trying to build a costume around the corset that follows that genre. I just happened to have a pair of boots in my costume trunk that will totally work with the corset ( Read more... )

Beware for the first couple days of my report are not that spectacular. If anything, stressfilled.
