It's been one week since I've been here! It feels longer, yet I haven't really gone out and done anything. The open house was great. I met all but two of my students and their parents. They all seem really awesome, and 1/3 of my class is Japanese, which is cool ( Read more... )

This week I haven't done very much but work. Daily schedule: get up, eat breakfast, go to work (8-5), come home-ish - mostly in the area to go eat dinner or go grocery shopping, then home, then unwind for a bit, (maybe shower) then sleep. Oh, so exciting. But I'm loving the people and the school ( Read more... )

Well...apprently livejournal works...right now anyway. Anyway, I'm in Shanghai, China! It was a looong 14 hour plan ride, so I wzas ready to get off that plane when it landed ( Read more... )

Oh my goodness, it is so cold! It also started to rain, just enough to soak the group and make it cooler. I have been enjoying the warm weather the past few days and was getting used to the weather warming up, like it’s supposed to. But of course the weather wouldn’t totally corporate. It looks like it’s another cold day on my birthday tomorrow but ( Read more... )

So, on the first day of spring...it snows. And not a little snow either, we have several inches already and it hasn't stopped snowing since this morning. I wish it would stop snowing already, I'm done with snow, yet a part of me (the kid in me) still enjoys it. So I'm half and half on it, which is fine with me ( Read more... )

Well, it’s been mostly the same thing day after day. Work, eat, sleep, maybe some hanging out and working on costumes (although not as much as I should since a con is around the corner) among some other little fun stuff. Hence why I haven’t updated since forever ago, but this past weekend something changed ( Read more... )

I finally got out to JoAnns and bought some fabric for my next cosplays. Dropped a sum of money on the stuff, but I now feel excited to be able to work on something. The costumes I am working on are Rikku from Kingdom Hearts II: http:// ( Read more... )

Teaching has been going fine. I have been slowly getting used to my new schedule and working with the older kids. I'm not sure if I like it better or not, really I don't. It's stil challenging and draining, both mentally and physcially. But I feel that I'm finally getting into the groove of things, now to work on the finer points like grade book ( Read more... )

So I went to ConQuest, the scifi/fantasy convention a while back and wore my steampunk-ish outfit. It's not complete by any means, but I enjoyed wearing it ( Read more... )

I want to get in the habit of writing in my lj again. I kinda miss writing here, belive it or not...and to think I really didn't want to get one to begin with :P

I might write up an entry later...maybe after Spring and I take the dog, Spazz, for a walk. And it might be about cosplay XD
