Last night I vowed not to spend all evening playing video games, so I decided to be somewhat productive and start on my Lehas costume (after watching about 4 hours of Law & Order in its various incarnations). After cutting out the lining for my corset, which is a lovely shade of turquiose blue, I noticed a scrap which looked EXACTLY like Tidus's ( Read more... )

Yeah, so the FFX addiction goes on. My big concern right now is that I won't be able to get Anima. I know that I have to have all the hidden items from the temples, but I missed one, I think the one in Djose. I also know that once I get the airship I can go back to places, but can I redo the temples, or will I not be allowed in? I'll be sooooo ( Read more... )

Yeah, so now that I've lifted my pre-acen video game ban (in place for the purpose of getting costumes done in time), I've become hyper-addicted to FFX. I think I played for about 3 hours straight on Monday O_o And yesterday wasn't much better. But I've made a lot of progress with levelling, so John Pham can't yell at me anymore! Yay!

Highlights of the weekend ( Read more... )

1. I am 23.

2. Lulu is the coolest fucking thing I have ever made.

That is all.

Or at least get really really anxious. I pretty much have tonight to get everything squared away for Acen. Costume-wise, this isn't so much of a problem (I hope), I just have to finish my Anko skirt (which looks pretty ghetto anyway since I decided to change pattern views AFTER THE SKIRT WAS PUT TOGETHER -_-; the side seams look like ass) and do my ( Read more... )

... and it can't be Shirley Manson's either, that woman is sex on legs. She's absolutely FANTASTIC. For those of you who don't know (like, all two of you), John and I went to see Garbage last night. Daaaaaaamn good show ( Read more... )
