(*BTW, I apoligize for not posting those pictures yet like I said I would. Moving houses+ wonky internet + overall procrastination = XP)

Anywho, 2nd day of a new school. Definately not as fun as the first, but still fun nevertheless (leaving early for an orthodontist appointment was most likely a factor). I got mad love for my chemistry teacher! Really witty and easy-going! xD

Speaking of orthodontist, I got my bottom braces removed today! Woo!
(It feels really, really weird though...)
Hopefully I can get the "full set" removed soon. xP

After the appoinment, we ended up going to my aunt's house to wait for supper. Since it didn't look like food was going to be ready anytime soon, I convinced my uncle to take me job-hunting.

I had originally wanted to work at GameStop, but my family was aganist it. They did have a point though: a teen girl working at such a small store during late hours doesn't exactly seem like the safest situation. So we ended up trying other stores, like Subway and Marble Slab Creamery.

I think I'll end up working at a local B-B-Q resturant in the end. It supposedly has really great benefits, and it looks very engaging! I'm excited! x3

*is feeling super-giddy right about now*

Packed all my bags and I'm ready to go! :)
Have to wake up at 9 though, seeing as the plane takes off at 11. That'll suck. xP (I am one who enjoys her sleep.)

When I come back, I'll be another year older. xD
Then I'll get straight to job applications.
...And a crap-load of make-up work for school. ;_;

But yeah, can't wait! x3 See everyone soon! =D

BTW, the Velma costume-thing today went great, even though I was pretty-much the only one who dressed up today. xD Still, everything went fine, and I got plenty of compliments (and it made striking conversation alot easier than usual xD). I'm very grateful. ^^

Disneyworld trip in 2 days! I'm so flippin' giddy right now. xD
I've been alittle worry-worts about it too. "What is something happens to the plane?!", "What if I lose my luggage?!", "What if I run out of funds?!".

Lawl, but I know in the end it'll all turn out okay. =)

.... *knocks on wood*

Anywho, I'm excited for tommorow too. Gonna wear my Halloween costume (Velma from Scooby-Doo) while everyone else if celebrating Spirit Day. And I even persuaded my buddy, Teddy, into dressing up like Shaggy! Oh the things we will accomplish... *rubs hands sinisterly*

Well, just wanted to post that. Gotta get back to cleaning and my jack-@$$ of a project. ;_;

So I was sitting in my AP-World History class and who-else walks through the door but my friend from my previous highschool!
I found it so funny, seeing as my school is small and kind've out-there. xD
This wasn't the first time this has happened either. I ended up meeting with my wonderful art teacher from 6th grade on my way to my current art class. It was completely random too!
(We ended up catching up. She ended up getting married while I had moved! I was so excited for her! ^_^)

*ahem* But anywho, wanted to thank everyone who offered their ideas in my previous entry. They were very much appreciated! Unfortunately, I didn't end up dressing like anything on that day(aswell as pretty much everyone else in the student body. But there was Batman/Robin and Tom Cruise from "Risky Buisness"! xD). I *did*, however, dress up today for "Nerd Day" *nerd-snort*. (Just kidding.) Didn't take much effort, lawl. <3

And in other news, I finally booked my airfare for WDW, and my Parkhopper ticket has been paid for! (*squee*) I'm sooo happy it's official now! x3

Now all I have to worry about it raising up souvenir money, haha.

I was wondering if anyone would be able to help me out here.

You see, this coming week is the spirit-week at my high-school and, due to poor orginazation on the school's part, we weren't informed until pretty much after school yesterday. Monday is supposed to be "TV/Movie character Day", so I was wanting to do a cosplay.

So my question is, could anybody give me an/some idea(s) for a "spur-of-the-moment" cosplay. Like... an outfit I could put together after shopping at a thrift-store/retail. I'd appreciate it very much!

Thank you!

I didn't really realize until today how swamped I am with things to do! (Haha, and even now I'm putting off a Chemistry project that is due tommorow! xD)

School has been killing me lately, not really academically per-say, but just because of the sheer amount of work I need to do. xD Now I have the stress on my shoulder of making and maintaining good grades so that my Disneyworld trip this October will be a done-deal. Not only school, but I have lot's of things to do outside of school and money-worries.

- Make up any and every low score I might have in all my classes
- Maintain passing grades for all classes
- Pay off my Key Club fee ($16 bucks. Ouch. ;_;)
- Save up over $330 for Disney trip (And since the airfare ticket prices recently went up, it might be even more). $60 a weekend, my goal being over $300. $120 saved up now. Can I do it? (Dun Dun Dun...)
- Get my Halloween costume ready. (I decided I'm going to be Velma this Halloween, seeing as the new movie had resparked my interest) Anyone know where I can snag an orange turtle-neck? *Thrifting ahoy!*
- Sew my DIY SailorMoon dress for my birthday

I'll be having some assistance from good ol' Fifth Element, Slayers, and Teen Titans re-runs. Hopefully they'll make things go more smoothly. xD

Sooooo I get up bright-n-early to prepare for prep-day at my school. Everything is going fine, and I'm feeling pretty peppy as I'm getting ready (many thanks go to the tunes of Crystal Kay and UN).

I'm there for awhile, standing in a line along with others(and their parents). After awhile, I finally get to the registration table and, with utter confidence, I give them my form.

Everything is going smoothly until:

"Were you aware that you have a bill of $51.00 for your missing Literature book?"

I swear, it's like someone threw a medicine ball to my chest.

So I calmly explained to them that I did indeed turn in my book last year (I was even checked off 100% during our end-of-the-year bookcheck!). One thing lead to another, and before I knew it, I was in a room *full* of literature textbooks trying to locate the one with my book #. (The term "needle in a haystack", is a serious understatement). Goodness, I swear, if I didn't have some nice friendly student volunteers assisting me, I would've gone insane.

After almost a hour of looking, I come out empty-handed. And I'm told that I can't go any farther into the registration process unless the textbook is paid for.

Now, I'm not one to make-up excuses for my mistakes. I would've surely taken everything with a grain of salt if I knew that I was the one at fault; but this wasn't the case. I kid you not, there was a slew of other students who were going through the same thing as me (and more-than-enough to be more than "coincidence").

It's not that I'm angry at the faculty. I'm just upset by their lack of organization (and how I'm having to pay for it). Really! They could've already assigned it someone else for all I know!

In the end, I'm going to have to pay for the bill out've my own pocket money (I *do* have enough, but that money was supposed to be used for shipping my merchandise out. And even then, that was alot of money. ):[ ) I walked back home, bent-out-of-shape in August heat (and honestly, I didn't even care at that point). I crashed on my bed as soon as I got home.

Lawl. I swear, sleep is the best medicine! As soon as I woke up, some of the stress was automatically lifted off my shoulders. I got my needed things done, watched the always-a-good-time "Bride of Chucky" (with commentary by Jennifer Tilly and co.. I swear, that woman is a goddess!), and ended up getting a book at the bookstore with my family (I got a Dream dictionary, like I've always been wanting, in the clearance section for an awesomely low price. And it even came with a free book of my choice!)

And for some reason, dinner was especially good tonight. =)

I find it a very funny how a day could go from down-right terrible to alright or great. X)
(Don't get me wrong. I'm still ticked about it... xD)

Sooo.... John Hughes died today...
All I have to say is:

WTF, WORLD?!

Good gravy! Random celebrities and generally awesome peoples are dropping like flies all of a sudden. ;_;

(Lawl. I swear, someone out there has a Death Note or something...)

Awwww. As soon as I finish NEXT tonight, I'm gonna watch Breakfast Club.
(You will be missed!)

So yesterday I got my hands on the Slayers boxset (which contains the first three seasons).
And I must say, even if I pretty much spent all the cash I had, it was the best $60 I have ever spent!

(*does giddy-dance*)

Haha, I know what I'm doing this week. ;P

Sailor Moon, anyone? :P

Goodness gracious. I've always been aganist texting, and I barely started doing it because my mom told me it was avaliable. The incident today only confirms that I should just stick to good-old dialing:

(Warning. Highschool fangirling ahead.)

So, since my friend and I wanted to have alittle meet-up at the movies with our friends (I also was hoping to use it as an excuse to get closer to my friend I happen to have a "crush" (-cue barf-bags-) on), I took the liberty of exchanging digits with him so we could discuss our "plans". (Keep in mind, he has an area code that is different from mine.)

Later after-school, I'm kind've anxious. Then I recieve a text message. I open it and look at the number: a different area code. It must be him! (-squeels-) I get practically giddy and eagerly reply. Then a long conversation starts taking place. I'm feeling very hopeful at that moment.

Then I start noticing something with the messages he's been sending. Lot's of smilies. Really happy sounding. (Not saying I was talking negatively. He just talked "too" cheerful, in a feminine way.) So just to be sure, I ask to make sure I was talking to *him*.

Turns out, it was my buddy, Charlotte, from my art class.

Everything goes down-hill from there. I've never felt so mortified.. XD

Holy schnikes, that was an *amazing* movie. I was blown away by everything!
The visuals were absolutely incredible. Everything was so colorful and polished! And don't even get me started on how adorable and hilarious it was!
This movie made me go through a whirlpool emotions. One second I'm wanting to squeel at the perfection and cuteness, another second I'm tearing up at the drama, then I'm tearing up because I laughed so hard. (The dogs, anyone? Friggin' priceless.)

Definately the best Pixar movie of all-time. (Yes, even better than TOY STORY. XD)

... But besides that, I got to meet up with Monsey today. I was so happy I was able to see her! I haven't been able to see her in awhile ever since the move, so it was very refreshing to be able to hang out with her. We went to go see "Up", of course, then we went to the mall and had alittle "spree" at A'gaci. (I swear, I had pretty much the whole store in my dressing room, I was so indecisive. XD)

And now I'm watching the MTV Movie Awards, admiring the beastliness that is Andy Samberg and ranting about how Twilight is winning pretty much every award. (C'mon peoples! Kristen Stewart as best female actor? WTF, peoples?)

I was hoping to get some opinions on commission pricing. I'm in the need of some spare money for extra clothes, summer nessecities, and misc. goodies, and I was hoping this would be a small way for me to do so.

Here is what I'm thinking about offering. Examples are provided for each one.

Lineart/Sketch - Cost: $1.00-$3.00 - Example
Colored (using Paint Shop Pro X2) - Cost: $3.00-$5.00 - Example
Friends Banner/Small Graphics - Cost: ??? - Example
Shoe Commission - Cost: $20(You pay for shoes + shipping to me) - Example (Please excuse cruddy picture. Better picture to come!)

Sooo.. whatcha' think? Do the prices seem fair? Would you ever consider commissioning me?

(If things go well, I could hopefully open commissions early or mid-June. Right now, finishing some requests I took awhile back are my top priority!)

...geting a plus paid account. I could use the extra userpics.

Any of my peeps that have one, could you tell me if it's worth it or not? Are there any other notable benefits besides an increased userpic count?

Thanks! (-grumbles and gets back to her project-)

Taking a big test tommorow at school. I'm gonna try my hardest for a perfect score! >=D

So today I was woken up by my step-father with the annoucement that we were going to go out to eat for breakfast(IHOP, to be exact). I shot out of bed and headed straight for the shower. XD

While at the restaraunt, my cousin had called and said that him and his family were going to the flea market that morning and invited me to tag along. Mom said no, so I turned down the offer kindly. (It had turned out that we were going to go to the flea market aswell, but not the same one that my cousin was going to.)

So while at the flea market, I was on the hunt-down for any Sailor Moon goodies I could get my hands on(because honestly, flea markets have EVERYTHING). And my mom ended up supporting my hunt aswell! XD It really made me happy cause we bonded more than usual. ^^

During the hunt, I came across a custom-lightswitch plate stand. I looked for any Sailor moon one, but, unsurprisingly, they didn't have any. So I asked the man working the stand if he would take custom-requests, and he accepted! *Squee* I wrote down what I wanted ("Sailor Moon Chibiusa") and he said he would e-mail any images he would find and see which one I wanted. Then after I picked, he would make it for me and call me as soon as he gets it to come and pick it up! Haha, I couldn't express my happiness. XD

Then later on, I came across two pretty-faced Irwin dolls (of Sailor Moon and Jupiter)! Only downsides were that: Sailor Moon came bare including missing hair ornaments and neckband. Her hair was messed up too(her bangs are sticking up, which is proving really difficult to fix as I'm brushing through it now). And Jupiter came with her boots and neckband, but no fuku or hair ornaments. Still, I was happy I was atleast able to find them. I'll more that likely be able to find the fukus and stuff at serasell or Ebay.

Then, *big thing* I FINALLY FOUND A SAILOR MOON SHEET(official)! Lawl, as soon as I saw it, I immediately picked it up and purchased it(at a pretty good price too). And it turned out the woman selling it was a SM fan too! XD She said she had the piggy banks, all the dolls, and bedsheets and videotapes, and that she was selling any duplicates she had left over (which is lucky for me!). We ended up exchanging phone numbers and she said she would call if she ever got any more SM stuff in. Squee(x2)!

(Ima make it into a pretty curtain! ;D)

And as I felt things couldn't get any better, my cousin ended up calling and told me that they were headed over to the same flea market that I was at after all! So I asked my mom if we could stay longer, but she offered to let me stick with them and have them drop me back home later. Woo!

So I ended up going with them and we stuck around the market abit longer. Then we ended up going to his aunt's house. During our time there, I actually got to spend some quality time with him and got to meet his cousins and siblings/step-siblings too. I was happy because I was able to get along with his brothers very well(I had been under the impression that they didn't like me very much for awhile)! His mother, step-father, and cousins were very nice to me aswell! ^_^

Then after that, we ended up going to eat at a local BBQ restaraunt, and then went to Chuck.E.Cheese to play some games after. The only thing that sucked was that the staff working there was doing a horrible job (everything was very unclean, trash everywhere) and MANY,MANY of the games were out of service. We still had fun though! I was glad just to be able to get out of the house for abit(I was developing "Cabin Fever"), so no compaints here! XD

So yeah, really lucky day for me! ^w^

I got three shots today. ON THE SAME ARM TOO! DX

Lawl. I'm just overreacting. But really, the numbness is starting to bug me. -waves fist-

Not only that, but after the appointment I bought a strawberry smoothie from one of the local restraunts(drive-thru), which ended up being craptastic.

Thank god tommorow is Friday... XD

Well, I was hoping to get Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon today. Doesn't seem like that's gonna be happening after all...

I need a new RPG for my DS. It needs a good touching. (-brick'd-)
