Bullet points style!
Jun. 29th, 2009 10:24 pmTime for another no-post-for-FOREVER-finally-posting post. Yeah.
+ The Music Man is going great! Just finished our second weekend of shows with two more to go! I'd recommend going here, here, and here for pictures (!!!) and a review :D
+ Got my laptop back FINALLY, I missed it so much! It's a bit slower now but hopefully I get to do something to fix that. I'm also beta testing Windows 7, the new one coming out soon after Vista. Generally I like it, it's pretty and all but so far my sims games are not working the way I want them to which is ;_;
- Which led to me having to re-install them today and trying everything I can to get previously backed-up files to show up which worked the last time I had to do it and NOW IT DOESN'T. Hopefully taking a break from it will help...
+ Working at Six Flags is, in general, good. It has been hot here lately and they don't have much shade for us, which I really wished they would do something about and have mentioned before, but we'll see. It keeps me sane knowing that I don't plan to be there forever, or at least not as long as I was in retail. Also, working animal exhibits at a theme park is MUCH better than in foods or something. However...
- To: Visitors of the park, Just because an animal is not moving does NOT mean it is dead or fake. I know common sense is severely lacking in a lot of you people, but we would not have a dead animal on display and do you REALLY think that we would spend all that that effort on new expensive exhibits just to put fake animals in them? Also, WE treat our animals fine, thanks for asking, YOU do not. WE do not spit at alligators to make them move, YOU do, WE do not pull on the tails of stingrays, YOU do, and WE do not bang on the glass windows of the marine animals, YOU do. Also, not every shark you see is a great white, not every stingray is a manta ray and not every penguin comes from Antarctica. But I just explained all of it and you would know this too if you had been listening. No love, me.
+ To end this on a non-ranty ending...
I HAVE SEEN THE TRAILER FOR AVATAR AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT, AANG LOOKS BADASS
ALSO HARRY POTTER MOVIE IS GETTING CLOSER TIME TO START LOOKING FOR EARLY RESERVE TICKETS AT IMAX FTW
SO IS THE RELEASE OF THE NEW NIGHTRUNNER BOOK (!!!!)

May. 15th, 2009 11:50 pmI can't wait!
Made some plans for things and such to do Sunday:
11am - CLAMP gathering for
ky313. Dunno if we'll get there in time though, too early O.o
2pm - Panel "Whose line is it Anime?" Anime + improv! Will probably stop by for a bit.
2pm - Ballroom, swing dancing in preparation for the Black and White ball :D
3:30pm - Avatar gathering! We can make it this year!
4pm - Panel "So you wanna live in Japan?" for
ky313.
4:30pm - Kenshin gathering for
ky313. Gonna have to decide on which ones to stay at...
5pm - Signings, Ken Lally from Heroes.
6pm - Panel "Gaia Online". Must not miss this time but worried it may be boring.
6pm - Black and White Ball. Tempted to go considering we haven't done this before! Plus, dressing up is fun!
8:30pm - Some kind of Yaoicon raffle thing. Not sure what this is but I'm thinking we could drop in to find out :D
Nothing we want to do on Monday so we'll do what we did last year and hang around in our cosplay taking pictures!
One of these years I'll be able to go the WHOLE weekend AND have more than one cosplay :D

Dec. 23rd, 2008 02:44 amSo uh, it's almost 3am here and I stayed up to work on THIS!
I'm starting with the Earth square first and I've only got about three rows but it's easy enough so far!
I can't wait to see how this turns out :D

Jul. 17th, 2008 08:43 pmOMG NEW AVATAR THE SOUTHERN RAIDERS OMG OMG
more later lol
Edit: Also, Ember Island Players has got to be the funniest episode EVER.
After watching it I had AN AWESOME IDEA.
...The group that's going to fanime next year should cosplay as The Ember Island actors cause that ROCK. SO. VERY. MUCH.
Seriously. I'm considering it!
more later lol

+ The show has been going great! I took some backstage pics that can be seen on facebook and myspace and there are definitely going to be more from the next two weekends. Sold out Sunday matinee although it was super hot in the theatre as usual. The first two rows were filled with red hat ladies!
+ I always end up hanging around with the younger crowd backstage, and by younger crowd I mean 12-14 year olds (not counting my sister!), because they're more fun than the adults. Plus, none of them knew how old I was until I told them, lol. I read a lot backstage though, so it's more them hanging out while I'm sitting nearby with a book. Still, everyone in the show is awesome and I've worked with a lot of them before.
+ During the library scene, we have books as props and mine happens to be a hardbound copy of Timeline by Michael Crichton so I've been reading my prop lately too (even though I've read that book three times already, lol)
+ My favorite number in the entire show? "Shipoopi!" Our steps are similar if not exactly the same at some points, only with less pink (my dress is blue, my sister's is red) and less lifts (due to the typical lack of younger guys) the guys we do have do a very good job though and it's super fun :D
+ I finally get four days off from the show so I'm planning an entrance post to Milliways (with my brand new girl character!) AND re-downloading aim. Yay for productiveness!
+ Except I'm going to do some cleaning first and I have a few phone calls to make.
+ My plans for field school are changing. I felt it would be better to only go for two weeks instead of four, due to housing/funds/rent details that still need to be worked out X.X
+ Road trip to Seattle is still a go, only with one less person :( and I'm REALLY looking forward to the space needle as well as Crater Lake on the way home!
+ I've been playing Maplestory with my sister again while in Vallejo because it works better on my parents internet than here. No one will probably get the significance of this but I finally leveled to 30 after not playing for a year!
+ Finished watching ALL of Ghost Hunters online and now can't wait for the new eps...next month, I think?
+ Have now seen In Bruges THREE TIMES and I swear it never gets old. Me and
brinabean have been quoting it a lot, although trying to quote the movie without swearing around certain people is just not the same :(
Oh yeah, and....
+ BRAND NEW EPISODES OF AVATAR STARTINGFRIDAY THURSDAY!!!! Okay, so technically it starts tonight but I've already watched those online before they were supposed to air :D!
