I can't find words strong enough to convey my love for the intro to Katamari Damacy. In the words of meloise, "CRACK DOES NOT COVER IT."

If that's any indication of what the soundtrack is like, I want it. I'm going to be singing "naaaa na na na na na naaa" for the rest of the night.

Also, this disturbs me greatly. Disco!Snape... Snape heads flying ( Read more... )

How can you -not- learn something from art books which include such deep and thought-provoking statements as "red is the mating of yellow and blue" and "oil paintings often depict things"? To think, I was under the impression that yellow and blue made green. ;__;

It's about time I updated for no particular reason. I started an entry about the cosplay picnic, set it to private so I could finish it later, and never did. To think, I used to update my LJ several times a week when I first got it. I've gotten horribly lazy. Bad Pyre.

Because I've been putting off writing about Anime North for a while, I may as well start now. I won't go into all the details; let's just say it was a learning experience. Here are the highlights.

Anime North is this Friday. Am I even remotely ready? Not a chance. I have a bunch of stuff left to sew because I nitpick too much at small details and end up picking out rows of stitches if I don't find them perfect. I also have yet to mark 4376874753684 Kumon papers I volunteered to do for community service hours. I estimate it'll take me at ( Read more... )
