1) Answer the questions. If you don't like one, replace it with a totally new question.
2) Tag eight sexy people. (Shit, I don't have eight people on my LJ XD) Uhm...Sheno, I taggeth you.


What was the best party you ever went to like?
Uhh...the sleepover joy at Dando's was a party, right?

What’s one of the strangest things that has ever happened to you?
Too many to name. And the biggie is already in a journal here, so meh.

What are your favorite TV shows lately?
Uh...the CSIs probably. I dunno. I don't usually watch TV. (Cause I'm just that cool. -bullshitting-)

If you could see one band in concert right now, any band, dead or alive, which would it be?
Uhm...God...I dunno. Maybe...Yes, definitely GazettE. If I could see any /artist/ in concert? Regina fricken' Spektor. No question. The woman is beautiful.

What's really creepy?
Dead Japanese girls with knives. Mirrors at night. Jester from DMC3. Hearing voices and not knowing where they're coming from.

Name one odd item within five feet of you.
Heshe. It's a wig head that's been doodled on by the kids at my Amdram group. It's weird because it has one clearly-drawn eye, a dot on its forehead, Angelina Jolie lips, a moustache, a beard and freckles. And heavily pierced ears, apparently.

What's your current fandom/obsession/addiction?
FF7, FF8, KH, DMC. Dante is an obsession all on his own, because let's face it. He's fucking awesome. Lady, that goes for you too. And Reno, and Zack.

Oh, also, fricken' REPO. And Mag. Mag is godly, and I love her dearly.

Where would you like to go right now if you had enough money?
Easy. Midhurst, Newport, Manchester, Warrington and somewhere along the Bible Belt in America. (Somewhere where Tsu lives. XD Yes, I suck.)

What are you most excited for?
Expo in 20 days. Well, 21 but I'm travelling down on the Friday. America in 2011. Ycon is gonna be fecking amazing. Regina at the end of November, if I can still go.

What websites do you always visit when you go online?
dA. Always. Facebook, to check my pet hasn't died on Pet Society. Neopets, because it's kickass. XD Youtube, cosplay.com, Y!Gal, AFF.net...whatever catches my eye, really.

What was the last thing you bought?
...Uhm..OH! Cotton and ribbon for Yuffie cosplay. Pink ribbon for the Aerith memorial band and beige cotton because I ran out for the shorts.

What's your favorite season?
Autumn. I love the colours, it's all so beautiful when the leaves turn brown and yellow. And the weather's not too hot or too cold.

What kind of music have you been listening to lately?
Regina and A Fine Frenzy, and the Rent soundtrack. Some Puscifer for smut RPs, because you can't write smut to Regina, srsly.

What is your zodiac sign?
Capricorn, but I'm more like a Saggittarius. I was born like, two days away from the cusp, so...

Do you want to learn another language?
I'd love to speak more Japanese...and Italian. Maybe Latin? I dunno...

5 things (not people) you can't live without?
My PSP, it has my music and Crisis Core...

PS2...Though, do the games count as one thing with the PS or not?

Computer. Definitely. Without internet access, I would die. Maybe.

Tea. I'm so British, I love my tea.

Um...I'm genuinely torn between my little glarey Auron figurine and my puppy plushie. ....Auron. I think.

Nope.

Wait, yes I do! I have a half-sister! I think I only have one...I'm not sure...

Johnny Depp. Quinton Flynn's voice. Rick Gomez's voice. Helena Bonham-Carter. Sophia Miles.

Say something to the person who tagged you?
Te quiero, puta. <3

Halloween this year...I'm doing things a bit differently. See, it's Expo like, a few days before Halloween, so when Spiral (my cosplay group) get back on the Monday, they're having a halloween-themed post-expo party. And I've been invited.
Yes, I'm dressing up. I do every year, I have done since I was old enough for Mum to backcomb my hair and paint me fake warts. XD This year...my cosplay is a surprise for the Spiral lot, though most of my friends know what I'm going as. It's gonna be so fun to dooo. <3
Usually, my costume is planed ages in advance. Like, nearly 12 months, and I work on it whenever I feel the urge to. Last year, i threw everything together the evening before. Last minute flail costume ftw! This year, slightly more organised. I've known for about a week what I'm doing, and I'mstarting on it tomorrow.

Heya, I'm healthy. Rant pending.

 

Yeeeah, riiight. >.> <.<
Excuse? I have none.
Been doing a lot of soul-searching lately, making some pretty big changes to my life. I left College, it wasn't taking me where I wanted to go.
It's funny, I spent so much of my life telling myself and everyone else that I didn't want the same career that's been passed down through the matriarcal line, and yet, that's exactly what I want to do. I want to make clothing for a living, both cosplay and my own fashion brand. I don't like to think that I'm not in control of my own future, I think that fate is creatively damaging and it gives us an excuse to be lazy, besides. But it does feel like I've always been on this path. Just walking it with my eyes screwed shut.
I realised something on New Year's. A year ago, I didn't even know a lot of the most important people in my life. I mean, I knew Semé and Moogle, but I'd never been to an expo. It wasn't until May that I met my darling WelshRoxy, and Marly, and it wasn't until as late as August that I met the ever-fantastic Sheno, Hellatoez, Red, Catboy, Sai, and so many other wonderful people.
Of course, I haven't technically met Tsu, but she is also right up there in the "fantastic people I met this year" list. And let's not forget the Manchester lot. LittleRoxy who, along with Sheno, was the catalyst for...well, some of the most amazing events of my life.

 

So yeah, I've been going on a bit of a spiritual pilgrimage.

Yeah, I have no excuse.
Stuff happened. I got a boyfriend. I broke up with boyfriend. Life continues as normal. We're still friends, but it's a weight off my mind to not be beholden to him. Even if he does have that kicked-puppy thing going on right now.
I write fanfics at an inhuman rate, then promptly lose interest and start new ones. XD I'm working on...hang on...
See Me
Unhealthy
Overtures
Ever After
And oneshots all over the place.
Finished Crisis Core....-wibbles- Zacky. Egads, I love that retardedly happy puppy. And I now have a Zackbadge. On my boob. XD

College is shyte. I loved it so much last year, but now...there's no drive. In anyone. In three weeks, I've done one day's work. And that was entirely unrelated to our project. That motorbike was gorgeous, though. And I got to gossip witha boy about Crisis Core. It seems you can't swing a Cait Sith in our college without hitting an FFfag. (Pardon the profanity, I've gotten hooked on that word of late...)

Semé's being...odd...lately. Apparently, she told Pink and Moogle that I made out like crazy with a guy at Toko. Wouldn't give his name, though. Well, the only person I kissed more than once was Sheno, who has a lovely pair of breasts and no penis, last I checked.
Oh, and Kaye. But she was a rampant snogfest in her own right.
Point being, I don't get why Semé would lie about something like that. Or why, despite the fact that she took to boyfriend like a house on fire, she's decided to take umbrage at the new friends I made at College the other day. And she seems to be...how to say this...holding me at arm's length. Either having a bad day, or in a mood with me over something. Ever since second year started. I don't know if it's something I've done, or if that's just the way she interacts with people. Sometimes, I'm a little offended by it. 

'Tis strange.

I have...NO excuse.
Ok, I have two. And they're biggies.
1) College starting up again.
2) Zacky. I mean, Crisis Core.
3) EFFING MIDLANDS MCM EXPO, PEOPLE!

My gods, it was beyond amazing. It was...I got a kiss on the cheek from Sister Rosette, I caramelldansened until my arms almost fell off, I hugged a Saix while he was threatening me, I go a piggyback, I got HUGS! So many hugs! I got a fantastic photo of...well...Reno in a French Maid's outfit. I shitteth thee not. GAH! So good! And I'm doing it all again in October. XD Oh, and the cutest guy on our course, you know, the ruggedly gorgeous one with the tattoos who all the girls want? He's hooking me up with some awesome hair gel. Anime hair gel. XD What are the chances?

So, a week before the Expo, me and Mum are wandering around Banbury.
Mum: "I need to get a laptop."
Me: "That is why we're here."
Mum: "Or I can get you to do my books up on your computer and buy something more interesting."
Me: "Like what?"
Mum: *walks into Gamestation.*

Twenty minutes later...

*walk out of Gamestation*
Me: "....Criiiiisiiiis Coooooore." *fondles shopping bag bearing Crisis Core and a PSP.*

My mother is fantastic. She is wonderful. And Zacky is copious amounts of sex and love. As is Sephiroth. Genesis is more sex and severe punishment. XD


College is...serious business. I had a minor crisis yesterday about whether I was gonna take Illustration or Textiles as a specialism. I really want to go into costume design, like, Gothic Lolita and stuff. I'd love to own a shop like GLP or Sai Sai. But on the other hand, I dearly love drawing, and I had nothing but bad memories of Textiles in Secondary school. In fact, I failed Textiles because I didn't hand in any written work. ^-^;; But after thinking it through, and talking at Rainbow, I decided that Textiles was the better option, because after all, I'm fairly capable of drawing, but my visual communication skills suck ass. And in the long run, I'll get more out of it.

It's Roxy's birthday today. (Technically yesterday.) So Axel's no longer a pedophile. XD I drew her my first ever boylove pic. And it was AkuRa. Successfully smashing into pieces my OTP. However, it made her kiss the screen for joy, so it was well worth it.

Fiiiiine. Lola's refusing to let me write any more unless I put what I've done so far out there to be thoroughly shredded by the masses.
Yes, Tsu, that's you. XD And anyone else actually reading this who wants to read and comment.

I have two things to be overlooked/dissected, one is the second chapter to Unhealthy, already up on my FF.net, and the other is my brand spanking new (Don't get any ideas :q) Demyxfic, which has yet to have a title...

Behind cuts, so you don't have to eyegougy if you don't want to.
