Nerdism Moment: CL'ANNAD

Nerdism Moment~!!!!!
Meaning I feel like talking about anime, games or something..
not always accepted by the "normal" world.
Ahem. Sooooo
I've been watching this anime called Clannad on Netflix.
Unforunately it is dubbed not subbed but I deal
because I am too lazy to always try and get comfortable
watching it on my laptop. I like the sofa OKAY?!?!
I also don't like moving my laptop from the desk
because he is comfortable on his desk
and when I move him I have to
unplug ALLLLLL his USB connections
and then he freaks out and loses internet
connection.
I don't know. He wasn't originally mine so I'm not sure
why he works this way. Must be a power setting =__=

Anyway~!!!!!!!
So I've been watching this anime and it's actually pretty interesting.
Doesn't seem like a "typical anime". It has its moments
but for the most part there's a pretty good story line and the characters
are fun to get to know. It really revolves around this guy who kind of has
nothin really goin' for him at home and his past is a bit hazy but instead
of being some bully at school he actually starts to try and make friends
with some random girls at the school. The thing is, the girls are a bit weird..
Only like two of them appear to have a normal life. The others he ends up kind of helping
with whatever problem they're having at school or with the past... There's like one who is
actually the spirit of a girl who's in a coma, then there's this chick who everyone thinks is like
a robot because of her stregnth and she likes to walk around in a bear suit. Then there's Negisa who seems very weird but ends up being a very sweet girl and joins Tomoya with trying
to get the drama club going. Well, the drama thing starts to get Tomoya (the guy sorry XD) to get more involved in their lives and they become friends.....and like I DONT KNOW. I suck at explaining things because there's all these details in between....bleh. It's interesting though.
I've been told to keep watching it because it gets better. I'm on episode 14 right now. The first story arch is only 24 eps, then there's the "After story" which is 24 eps too.
I don't know..it's weird and it has some fantasy in it, like the story of the girl and the robot in this whole other world going on... (like the photo).

There's not a lot of action in it...except when Tomoyo (the tough girl) beats the crap out of people. Kyou is also a hostile girl...she's hillarious though. XD. Then there's another girl who
is a dang genius but her social skills are hoorrrrible..so they try helping her.

Yeah. I pretty much failed trying to explain this. I suppose I will leave you with the ending song..

There also isn't much romance in this. Not yet anyway. It's mostly about friendship, strong bonds between people, fantasy..some suspense and maybe a little drama, but not much.
Meh. I like it. :]
Oh and I finished this other one called "Chance Pop Session". It's about friendship, sisterhood and music. It was actually cute and short (13 eps)

(Usually you'd see little dangos but it's Pika in this one! XD)



Bleeeeeeeeeeh.


Another day.
Where I did not work on cosplay.
Which really sucks.
Why do I do this?
I do not know.
Blah, blah and more blah.

Today was alright.
This blog isn't though.
It fails.
I'm sorry.
I truly
am.

I hope all is well for you who read
my blog.
Thank you.
I like having an audience.
It's nice to know
that...
I'm somewhat..
interesting?

Okay.
Good night for now.


P.S.
Beet has a youtube. Subscribe NOW. ;O

Parties~!!!


Soooooooo I went to a pool party on Friday. It was very fun!
We even had a fire at night so there were yummy smores involved.
On Saturday we made this funny D.gray-man skit on video and it'll be
up on Youtube sometime this week. I HOPE!
Then today I went to a party at another friends house and
they had LOTS of food. They are portuguese so it's in the blood
to cook, cook and COOK yummy food. My friend's dad made these
DELICIOUS PORTUGUESE DOUGHNUT THINGS.

O____O It was heaven in a few bites.
I had like 4 or 5. I don't remember. I wasn't even hungry. They were too good though.

I had a blast though. We were out on the dock with some friends and family members (all around the same age..early-mid twenties) and we were playing this number game.
It's kind of hard to explain on here but it was like "Big booty". Anyway! We were all cracking
up and having a really good time! I finally got home a little while ago. I feel tired now.

As for any "Bad news"...uhh I'm thinking about Sac Anime and wondering how I'm even going to afford it. =/ I really don't know at this point. I feel like I shouldn't be using what little money
I even have. I still have no job because I am slackin!


My Cosplay list...toned down :[


I think I've been going a bit over board on cosplay too. I've been wanting to make WAAAAY too many costumes. I know I want to, but themoney is unfortunately an issue and I really need to calm down with it all. I have 4 new costumes I want to make for Fanime and I think that is all I will buy anything for. I already have all I need for Fado, I don't exactly have all I need for Luxray but I might just paint my body where the blue shows....I kind of like the idea of that but I don't know. I DON'T KNOW. O___O We shall see about that idea later.

ANYWAY! I'll list character names of all I will work on from now until Fanime. They won't exactly be in the order I'll be making them because I usually work on a few at a time!

(Thanks Ne-chan for the post, helped me kind of calm down with the cosplay thing too.) I love cosplay but...I honestly do need to relax before I'm broke and also too busy to find a job.


July 2010 - May 2011 (Assuming our list won't change...)
Fado - Windwaker (??)
Luxray - Pokemon (??)
Kisa Sohma - Fruits Basket (AOD, Sac Anime)
Squalo superbi - KHR! (AOD - Casual | Uniform - Fanime)
Lavi 3rd Uniform - D.Gray-man (Fanime)
Dizzy - Guilty Gear X (Fanime)
Peppitia Rosetti - Star Ocean 3 (Fanime)

Yeah, that's it. Man, I'm tired...good night.

-Cough- Watch this - cough - So dang cute XD

Looking for a job and finding discouragement.

Is one of the hardest things to do these days...and it sucks. It's hard NOT to be discouraged when you live in a small town, can't afford to buy a car on your own and "Now Hiring" is a rare site to see.

I'm not completely discouraged otherwise I wouldn't be turning in these 4 applications tomorrow, but I do feel a bit down when I look at them. I realise how bad I messed up by not trying to work as soon as I got out of High school. I feel like I have truly failed myself. I wish I could even get a dang cleaning job, it's something I wouldn't have to look that good for but an area I know I could do well in and earn some experience/money through it. :[ Blah. I know, I'm just complaining...and there are worst cases than mine but I just can't help but vent out these feelings!! I know this is suppose to be about a cosplay thing.......but whatever. I'd like to make more costumes and even earn some money in that area since it's what I want to do. I want to be a designer...*~* But that's later...after I get through the "crap jobs" and earn my way up.

Ahhh.....I wonder if there are many like me with no good work experience, trying to find a job. :[
Even with schooling on the papers, most jobs want to see experience...not all that you know. -sigh- and it's hard to get experience when they're wanting one who already has it..especially at my age. Grrrrrrrr. I screwed up in my life already. (.____.); God help me.......

Ani-Vent 2010

So I'm back from Ani-Vent. More like I've been back! There isn't TOO much to say. I had a nice time but I really felt I was dying in my outfit. I don't handle heat well at all anymore. I get too hot and start getting grumpy. :[ It sucks. I still had fun being Lavi with my friends as Lenalee, Allen and Kanda (YUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!). A tiny part of me wishes I had gone in one of my other outfits that I worked harder on, because I was doing a cosplay panel and felt kind of bleh up there in something I halfway bought. Another part of me wishes I was in a FREAKIN BIKINI---because it was DAAAAAAAAAANG HOT XD. The panel went well I think! People told us that they enjoyed our panel and a lot of people attended it too! O___O I was kind of nervous at first.....

Ahhh....next time, if it's a hot event I will choose one of the swimmers from Pokemon like my good friend Amber did for her Santa Cruz gathering which I wish I had been able to attend and she looked darn cute in it too. :) But...I am still going to cosplay as Lavi. He's fun to be...

I also really want to cosplay Squalo now.. (Reborn)*~* He's such a loud brat. Not the Kanda kind of brat... He's just a loud, high-tempered Italian mafia guy with gorgeous long white-silver hair *~* I plan on using the wig for more Ayame costumes too! I love crossplay...almost more than cosplay but I will still be girl characters---they have too many ADORABLE OUTFITS!

Man I use the shift key a lot.. I LIKE TO YELL CAN YOU SEE?!?!?!?! It's the enthusiasm in me. ;) Okay well uhhhhhhhhh I'm going to go. Miam's going to bbq up some tri-tip.. ;)
