feeling: impatient
listening to: Princess Mononoke - Ashitaka and San
Freak it all, everything is down. Neopets is down, the forum I haunt is down, Ragnarok is about half-down (but then, it always is)... I cant believe Blogger's not down too. Impressed, I am. *clapclap*
I can't wait to get my Utena costume together~ Mostly cause I found out over the weekend that it just might not cost me as much as I'd originally expected. Ok, the outfit's components themselves aren't that bad - black and white shoes with red bows, red socks, red shorts, a black jacket. And a pink wig. It's the details that were worrying me - Utena's ring (which is like, 90% of her character and MUST be included), the finer trim and junk on the jacket, and most of all, the sword. I thought I was gonna have to carve one out of wood, which... yeah, I can see myself being motivated enough to undertake a project THAT big. *koff* But I found out that I can get a simple sabre from a marching band supply store for, like, $30.. some spray paint and Crayola Model Magic on the hilt, and I have me a Diosu no Ken. Now, it's mainly the epaulets and the green gem thingy on the jacket that I'm left mulling over. And the trim and accents on the collar and said epaulets. Hmm.
...Does anyone even know what the heck I'm talking about besides Dumpling? ^^; Um, if not, here is a slightly squinched but accurate pic. Shyeah. So, despite the few difficulties that remain, I can't wait to get this thing together.
Wow. This is the fifth week of the quarter. On the plus side, this means that spring quarter is juuuust about halfway over, and summer is that much closer. On the minus side, it also means my Japanese oral midterm is next week. *cry* This thing's going to destroy me. Every year I've gotten worse and worse at these orals. Last quarter's midterm I got an 87.5% on. And already this quarter's gotten off to a pathetic start for me in that class. My own fault, probably, but... well, as I mentioned before, the teachers are also getting ridiculously anal lately. That doesn't help.
On a lighter note, I discovered today that there is a street here in Columbus named Mooberry. How cool is that? Mooberry Mooberry Mooberry.
