ALRIGHTY!

So, this upcoming weekend is hosted by MOMOCON!
ZOMGIMSOEXCITEDHEEHEEHAHAHABWAHAHAOMFGIMSOEXCITEDYAYREPITITIONMOMOCONISGONNABESOFUCKINGAWESOMEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So. Yes...er...ANYWAY, MomoCon is the biggest FREE anime con in...the south? The states? I dunno, but it's big, it's awesome, it lasts all weekend, and it's FREE.....I know someone read that and went "lolperv", but try not to focus on that right now! ANYWHO, I shall be going on both Saturday and Sunday, as different characters each day.

DAY NUMBERO UNO: COUNT D FO SHIZZLE!

DAG NUMMER TWEE (where the bad Dutch came from I DON'T KNOW 0_o): A...a....GANGURO. HELLZ to YES, my peeps, I'm a white girl imitating a japanese girl imitating a white girl. FO' REALZIES.

I'm going to said con with and because they are probably 2 of the 3 or 4 people I can officially geek out with....or at least the ones who understand what I'm talking about anyways. And my dear friend Zoe (numbah 3 on that list!) is going as well, but since I don't know her account nameeeeeee....

The Luverly Michelle will be going as ALICE from Petshop of Horrors, while Leanna is ALSO goin' as a ganguro. Ohohohohooooo!!!!!!

So as soon as I get the camera, trim my wig, and get fake claws, I'll start takin' some pics for ya'll.

Also, I feel I should say that I'm sorry for making so many people wait for requests. It's just that school has been a bit busy lately, and there's been a grounding of sorts (only supposed to get 6 hours of computer hours a week, which is like, less than I usually spend in a DAY) so by the time I've caught up with everyone online, read new chapters on onemanga (Code: Breaker FTW!!!!! Pick it up NOW), ignored creepy friend requests on facebook, laughed at licd and explosm strips, and just BARELY start opening up photoshop, my parents bump me off the comp. REALLY sucks, but I'm working to pull my grades up so I can get my privileges back. So yeah, it's been pretty tough to get much art done. So thanks for being patient!

Speaking of art, I'm finally getting the hang of manga studio (this is something that I'll read back over in about 7 months and go, "pshh, yeah, and Gackt never got plastic surgery") but it's so TIME CONSUMING! I mean...whoa....
Oh, and let me help any of you who think its a good idea to buy anime studio. DON'T. Dear LORD, that program sucks. The tutorial is about as helpful as a donkey with a screwdriver. Not only is it overly complicated, but put into overly-simplified terms, it DOESN'T WORK. The regular anime studio 5 is about 30 bucks, right? Here's how the deal for it goes:

Hopeful and oblivious customer: "30 bucks? Well awesome, that's a great deal for an animating program! Now I can stop saving up that $700 for flash and spend it on something equally as useful and rewarding!"
Box: *arrives*
HAOC: Yay! Now I can finally animate with an actual program instead of using paint and windows movie maker!"
Anime Studio 5: *starts up*
HAOC: *is excited*
Anime Studio: "Serial umber plz"
HAOC: "OK!" "5628567026183074671"
Anime Studio: "WRONG!!!"
Hopeful, oblivious, and now slightly confused customer: "Um....562 856 702 618 307 4671?"
Anime Studio: "GET IT RIGHT, LOSER!!!"
HOANSCC: "But... Uh...ok? 562-856-702-618-307-4671?"
Anime Studio: "FINALLY!!!"
HOANSCC: ...........ok. Now to animate!
Anime Studio Tutorial: "IMA A TUTORIAL LOOK AT ME!!!"
Hopeful customer: OK!
Anime Studio Tutorial: "Instead of using anime characters, or anything remotely resembling a human, I'm going to contridict the name of this program and teach you how to animate creepy Foster's Home alien blob things that's anatomy will just confuse you more than the serial number ordeal!!!!"
Hopeful but confused customer: "Uh.....why?"
Anime Studio Tutorial: "SILENCE! READ ABOUT HOW TO ANIMATE THIS FROG CREATURE'S LEGS!!!!"
Confused, slightly annoyed but still hopeful customer: "........."
Anime Studio Tutorial: DO YOU GET IT?
CSABSHC: No....
Anime Studio Tutorial: THIS IS OBVIOUSLY TOO HARD FOR YOU (that's what she said ;D *slapped*) GO READ ABOUT HOW TO MAKE CLOUDS MOVE ACROSS A SKY!"
Confused, annoyed, and all too trusting customer: "Alright...."
Clouds: *move*
All too trusting customer: "It worked! I did it!!! "
Anime Studio Tutorial: "SURE TOOK YOU LONG ENOUGH!!!"
ATTC: But...I DID IT. I'm proud of myself.
Anime Studio Tutorial: "SHUTUP AND ANIMATE MORE YOU FAG!!!"
ATTC: D: That's mean, you shouldn't call people that! It's insulting to the people who really are-"
Anime Studio Tutorial: THOSE WHO DON'T ANIMATE HAVE NO BALLS!
Confused that they're having a conversation with a computer program, but still proud and trusting customer: But I'm a-
Anime Studio Tutorial: READ ABOUT HOW SIMPLE IT IS TO MAKE A BANANA PUDDING MONSTER LIP SYNC WITH GEORGE BUSH AUDIO (no, I'm NOT kidding)!!!!!
Hopeful, Proud, Still Slightly Confused Customer: Read it! But I'll do lip syncing later since I have no audio files at the moment.
Anime Studio Tutorial: THEN ANIMATE THIS WORM!!!!
Hopeful, Proud Customer: Oh yay! Finally a stop-frame MOVING animation!
Anime Studio: "DRAW ON ME WITH SUCKY TOOLS THAT MAKE YOUR ART LOOK LIKE SHIT NO MATTER HOW PRECISE AND CAREFUL YOU ARE!!!"
Slightly Irritated But Trusting Customer: "Well, it may look bad now, but that's just because I've just started using this program."
Anime Studio and Tutorial: *exchange glances and snickers*
SIBTC: "Alright, I've drawn the worm! Now I just have to use the onion skin and draw the worm moving differently on separate layers and put them to the right timing! This is easy!"
Anime Studio Tutorial: "DON'T FORGET TO USE THAT ONION SKIN!"
Confused Customer: "Er....it's not here. Where's....where's the onion skin?"
Anime Studio: "HELL IF I KNOW!!!!"
Anime Studio Tutorial: "HERE LOOK AT THIS PICTURE OF THE PROGRAM SETUP!!!"
CC: .....ummmmm....*checks for onion skin EVERYWHERE* That picture sucks. The onion skin obiviously isn't where it's shown there. Oh well, I'll just do with out it."
Worm Inching Across Page: *is drawn*
Expectant Customer: Coolio! Now to hit the play button!
Play Button: *is hit*
Nothing Like A Worm Inching Across Page: *happens*
Confused Customer: *checks everything* "I did everything right...except for the onion skin....but surely they wouldn't give me a tutorial that doesn't work, right?"
Anime Studio 5 Tutorial: *rips away name tag to reveal itself as "Anime Studio 5.3 Tutorial"*
Confused And Shocked Customer: "GASP!!!"
Anime Studio 5.3 Tutorial: "FOOLED YOU!!!!"
Anime Studio: *crashes*
Shocked and Confused Customer: "Huh?!"
SACC: *googles Anime Studio 5*
Helpful Tip On Random Site That Would Have Been A Hell Of A Lot More Helpful If You Had Found It Earlier: "Oh yeah, Anime Studio 5 is missing essential parts used in the animating process, like the ONION SKIN. Without that, you can't animate anything worth a shit. So yeah, they give you the tutorial for Anime Studio 5.3 instead, hoping that you'll become frustrated and buy the better, MORE EXPENSIVE ONE THAT ACTUALLY WORKS. Pretty dick move on their part, don't you think? Well, there's my two cents. Hope I helped ya'll. ^ ^"
Utterly Confused And Angry Customer: "WUT."
Anime Studio: *smirks*
Flash: *is still $700*
UCAAC: T T

Ummm, I'm not sad or upset or anything. Neutral?

I miss
She's was so awesome and nice, and then she just *poof* up and left. I don't even know why, but I want her to come baaack!

On another note, I started C.O.N.T.R.A.C.T. What I'm having the main trouble with is the background. Why? Er...THEY SUCK, DER.
I'm really aspiring to become a manga artist. I hope to finish the first volume and send it to a publisher. I wonder if it could actually go somewhere. But right now I have to think about getting through about 180 pages of it and making it look nice and NEAT!

I've also spent most of the day writing a 900 word paper that's due tomorrow. I've also spent a considerable amount of time dancing to the carrameldansen and learning the dance to the LuckyStar OP. >.>

ALSO! For MomoCon, I now know what who I really want to cosplay as! I was going to be Saga-sama, but since I can save that for the next AWA, I figured I would be someone different- and easier- for momocon.

COUNT D! Hellz YES, my peeps, I shall cosplay as Count D and my amazing BBBBFFFFF! shall be ALICE! If you've read Petshop of Horrors, you know what I'm talking about. And if you haven't- what is WRONG WITH YOU? Go out there and read it! READ IT NOW!
Again I'm pimping these series: Koukou Debut, CodeBreaker (FTW!), and Higurashi no haru koro ni!!!!

P.S. If you should ever attempt to open a bottle of Ramune soda, bring a hammer, a towel, aspirin, a blowtorch, and a bodybuilder that works out their thumb on a regular basis. No joke, that stuff may be delicious, but it's nearly impossible no open.I have now tried ichigo and meron flavor! At AWA (where I cosplayed as Mion. Sooooo FUN!) my friends Michelle, Leona, and I were all on the ground in the dealer room with our unopened ramune and swollen thumbs screaming, "can somebody please help us?!?!?!?!"

Go to SmeckJeeves . com for your OEL (Original English Language) manga needs! There some really good ones there, trust me.

Well, I just came back from the dermatologist and I just have to scream: THE EYEBROW BLEMISH IS NO LONGER!!!!! It really makes me happy because I have been hating that thing since I was little and now that it's been removed I can finally show my face without fear! Well, I guess not YET, since I now have stitches, but those are coming out in about a week. True, almost half my face is numb, and true I'm frequently moping up the blood, but at least the scar will heal! YAAAAAAY!

Also, I'm going to be attending AWA and cosplaying as Mion (and hopefully Shion on the second day)! I'll post pictures afterwards (if I've found my missing camera that is).

AH YES! And I really suggest listening to Alice Nine if you like Jrock. Cosmic World rocks my socks! I plan on cosplaying as Saga-sama for MomoCon next year! GAWRSH, they're awesome!!!

Shou, Hiroto, Tora, Saga, Nao.......SQUEEEEE!

Beauty Pop, Code Breaker, Bleach, High School Debut, are great and all that jazz. I have to say though, Vampire Knight really isn't doing it for me. >_> But I ship Yuki and Zero, of course. Then again, I also ship Sasusaku and Nejiten, but I hardly ever watch Naruto. Ah well.

Want a great anime; then watch LIBRARY WAR. A friend suggested it, and got me hooked!

And on a side note: no, I STILL haven't seen the ATLA finale. But I plan to! ....SOMETJME SOON! MWAHAHAHA! I'll just skip over the last few minutes of doom and VOILA! A great(ish) Avatar Finale!

I WILL keep on posting Zutara art, but I'm talking a small break right now to develop new styles and work on some LONG over-due requests.
I also have a manga that I seriously want to start and if I ever do get somewhere with it, I'll post it. What's it about? I'll give you a hint: there are certain ways to kill a man, and none involving a transfer student.


Well, that was a sucky hint, wasn't it? Don't worry, it gets way better. I'm pretty excited to work on it.

More to come and ZUTARA FOREVER!!!!

Ok, I was up until 10 am this morning working on a new piece (which still isn't done) and went to bed and woke up a few minutes ago. My dad told me my friend my friend Kyle had called. Twice. Now, I know two Kyles, but I hang out with one and he just started watching Avatar. Before I went to bed, I held some of my Avatar sketch books and fanfic journals close to me...and cried. Avatar is coming to a close. It's a show I've followed loyally and faithfully for years. It's a part of my life that I never wanted to end because...what do I do after it? Where's my new fandom? Where are all the fans I love so much? I've never felt such love or had such an obsession for a show before, nor a book, a manga, a game- anything of the sort, really. I don't want to lose that, but eventually I knew it would have to end. It's different than the end of 2nd season, because we knew then that there would be another one following it. But now....sigh. Regardless, I've met so many wonderful people in this fandom. I feel attached to you guys, and I'm so glad to have met you. Whatever the future may bring, I hope we can still be friends. I love you all!
When I heard Kyle called I was a little confused at first because we don't usually talk on the phone, then it hit me that he had started watching Avatar. And he shipped Kataang.
Naturally I'm worried. If he's calling about the finale....if Kataang...he doesn't know just how important Zutara is to me. If he expects me to just get angry and and a little upset then he'll be surprised. If he gloats I'll probably start sobbing on the phone.
BUT! I don't know exactly WHEN he called. It could have been before the finale- and even if it wasn't, what if he's calling to tell me good news about my OTP?
I really hope so. I'm worried and nervous, yes, but I still have a firm belief that Zutara will become canon.

PLEASE DON'T GIVE ME ANY SPOILERS (UNLESS THEY ARE GOOD FOR MY SHIP! A SIMPLE, "ZUTARA HAPPENS/BECOMES CANON/WE WON!" WILL BE APPRICHEATED). ISTILL DON'T NEED SPOILERS THOUGH. ONLY GIVE THEM IF YOU REALLY WANT TO! I know I seem to be focusing on my ship more than the full story but honestly that's what I'm most worried about. That and I'm worried that Azula may die....

PLEASE GIVE ME LINKS!!!
