So. I have this friend; I've only known her since October, but we're pretty close despite that. She's epileptic, meaning that she occasionally has seizures. She had one Sunday night that lasted for about six minutes, and other friends of ours that she was with at the time took her to the hospital. I finally got a chance to visit her this morning.

My Intercultural Perspectives class went on a field trip to the U of A's Center for Creative Photography today. After seeing so many amazing photos, I've been struck with an urge to take some myself. (Even though they won't be a fraction as amazing.)

To that end, I'm dragging out an old photography meme I did a while ago.

Ask me to take pictures of ( Read more... )

I got to talk to one of my aunts over the weekend; she found one of the drawings I'd posted to Twitter and was very impressed, and spent the better part of the next half-hour gushing over how talented I am, and how I should keep drawing and maybe make a career out of it. I don't know about all that, but what she said got me to thinking ( Read more... )

At least, if you're into the same random mix of gothy-raver-steampunk-I-don't-know-what-to-call-half-of-it style that I am. X3

They've honestly got twice as much stuff at the store itself than they do on the site.

I've been by there once before, and since I had lots of time to kill today, I stopped back by to maybe do a bit of shopping ( Read more... )

A few notes right off the bat here:

1. If you click the cuts, prepare for lots and lots of photos. 94 of them, in fact.
2. Repo! photos are spoilertastic.
3. Rocky photos are mildly NSFW... but really, you should know that already. It's Rocky Horror.
4. Feel free to repost these elsewhere if you want to. If you do, please just credit me for taking them ( Read more... )

Anyone who's been to my LJ (or seen my Kamikaze posts) lately has probably noticed the little blinking "Get me out of jail!" icon on the side of the page. Guess I'd better explain myself, huh? Okay.

In a few days, I'm participating in the MDA Lock-up here in Phoenix - a fundraising event for the Muscular Dystrophy Association. The theme is 'going ( Read more... )

My building skips the entire 13th floor but leaves this for people to live in?

Tonight was the midnight premiere of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. I went with... pretty much everyone from my job, actually, and it was fun. I also dressed up, because I take any excuse to do that that I can get.

I went as Bellatrix Lestrange. And no, I was not attempting to copy ( Read more... )

It's funny to think that I only discovered Chandler Cinemas three months ago. Since March - the day after my birthday, in fact - I've been there enough to get three showings of Repo! the Genetic Opera and six of The Rocky Horror Picture Show under my belt. I've made new friends, gotten to spend some great time with old friends, and have generally ( Read more... )
