Boring Day

I hate one of those Saturdays when you have nothing to do. I mean, I could've done my homework, but I was too lazy. Tee-Hee^_^ And besides, I was too distracted by my computer.
I had the urge to watch Pepper Ann (you know, that 90's show) for some reason. Now I have the theme song stuck in my head:D It's not a bad song, it just gets annoying having it in your head all day.

So after watching about 3 hours Pepper Ann, I swicthed to Howl's Moving Castle. I just felt like watching this awesome movie again and it got me thinking: Maybe I could cosplay as Sophie. I mean, other people have done it, so why can't I? Then, I decided to take pictures of myself with my nicest dress clothes on, but they turn out so great. I just need to practice my angleing and make sure that the background is not too bright. No, I haven't uploaded the pictures yet, but I will soon.
I'm tried now, sorry for this boring blog. Good night:)

I'm a Star Shine Legacy Nerd...

And I have been and always will be. Ever since 2006, I've addicted to this PC game. The reason is, is because my little sister is part of this Pony club (because she loves horses) and she gets these magazines and cool stuff in the mail every month. Then after her monthly package came, she decided to give me the first Star Shine Legacy computer game because it didn't work on her computer. And back then, I had the latest model of Gateway computers.


So I decided to give it a try and in turn.......I LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I loved the fantasy, the suspense, the danger, the romace (though, there was hardly any), the thrills of excitment....the list could go on and on.
It might not interest you people (for the advanced gamers), but it interested me and my sister played the first game a few times too:)
The story (or the 4 games in this case) is about 4 girls (Lisa, Linda, Anne, and Alex) who are completly normal but don't really relieze that they all have special powers that could save their horses and Jorvik (their town). In the first game, we meet Lisa, the punk red head, who meets Starshine the horse and is surprised that Starshine can talk to her.
As the game continues, she eventually gets her power, which is the Healing Power. But then Starshine is kidnapped by an evil man named Mr. Sands (we later find out in the rest of the games that he is immortal) and it's up to Lisa to save him.


I don't want to spoil much to you guys (who haven't played the game), but I'll tell you the other girls powers. In the second game, Linda (the one with the glasses), has the power to see into the future, Anne (the one with the blonde hair), has the power to travel into different worlds unheard of. Such as Pandoria. And finally, Alex (the one with the #10 shirt) has the power to kill people or leave them unconsius mostly. I love Alex's power the most because it's more fun to kill people than to heal them. And the best part is, you control Alex's powers!!!! The other girls powers are uncontrollable:(
But the games are really awesome and you get to meet different people and the girls "talking" horses. And oh yeah, you also meet Fripp, the talking blue "squirrel". Fripp helps the girls understand why they have these powers and guides them through their journeys with their horses. And he's just sooooo darn cuteXD I love him so much!!!! He reminds me of a cute anime animal.
Speaking of which, look closely at the girls eyes. Don't they look like anime eyes to you? That's why I love this game so much.


This is my most favorite game of them all. It's the last one of the Star Shine Legacy and it's more challenging then the others, but it's awesome!!!!! It's called "The Riddle of Dark Core" and the cover is so awesome. If you notice that in the background, there is a graveyard!!!!! Yup! Alex goes to Scarecrow Hill (which is also a graveyard), though I won't explain the reason. I don't want to spoil it for anybody!!!

Well, that's all I've got to say. I just wanted to post something that I love (computer game wise). It's part of my Nerd list. Tee-Hee^_^
C ya later!!!!!

I Have Nothing To Say....

Not really:) But I don't have much to say.
Well for starters, I have a lot homework to catch up before tommrow so I better start working on it. My little sister, Laura, is going to the opera (again) on Sunday (with my mom and dad of course) and watch a tragedy. Hooray for my little sis!!!! But not for me:( I'm going to be stuck at home with my older brother on that day! Sigh. If only I could go to the cosplay convention this weekend with Kay-chan and Sheik.
Well, at least I still have anime to entertain me ;D Though, my brother doesn't really care much for anime, but my sister does!!!! She's head-over-heels for Ouran High School Host Club because she loves Tamaki's funny and over dramatic attitude and she loves the twins Hikaru and Kaoru sooo muchXD I love them too :3
So Laura's thinking about cosplaying too!!!! She wants to cosplay as Renge from this show because she's taller than me, and Renge is slightly taller than Haruhi.
Makes sense, doesn't it?
Well, I'm going to go now. Peace out my friends ;D

I'm Gonna Cosplay!!!!

Yes!!! It's true!!! I'm gonna cosplay for the first time! Well, not yet at least. I still have to make my costume and get a small group with me (hopefully).
Anyway, I'm going to cosplay as sweet dimwitted Torhu Honda from Fruits Basket, as you can see from the picture below.

The costume shouldn't be too hard to make, but finding patterns for a Japanes school girl uniform is hard. I mean, it feels like not a single store knows what anime cosplay is or they probably just hide the patterns for desperate cosplayers who are sewing fro the first time or the billionty time. Waaaahhh!!!! Life can be so unfair!!!!!:(
But at least there are similar patterns for school uniforms and there are plenty of youtube videos that can show you how to make one.


So I shouldn't give my hopes up...yet. But I really do wish I was going to the cosplay convention that my friends Kaily and Sheik (she likes to be called that) going to this weekend.
You see, they're going to be cosplaying as the Fruits Basket characters (Kaily as Shigure and Sheik as Ayame) and I thought this would be a good time to cosplay along with them (They've also invited other friends to go with them), but alas...no. It's just that my mom wanted to wait until AFTER Christmas to open up her new sewing machine and I knew that there was no way that I could have my costume ready in time. So I cancelled my plans to go with my friends:(
So much for that plan. But what's even more worse is that my mom hasn't even given her sewing machine a try!!!! Now she says this?!? And I was really looking forward to start sewing my costume with Flavio (Flavio's going to be Yuki).
I mean, I got the materials and everything, so I kind of deserve to start making my costume because I'm not sure when the next cosplay convention is!!! But I really hope it'll be in March or April because I find it hard wearing sleeves on hot day in May. But we'll just wait and see.
And I'm still looking for a Kyo and a Kagura because Fruits Basket isn't complete without them:3 So I'm kind of still searching around for the right ones.
Oh yeah, my friend Flavio said that after we cosplayed as the Fruits Basket charcters, he said we cosplay as the Naruto characters. I <3 Naruto. So my second costume will be Sakura and Flavio will be Sasuke and we're also thinking that his younger brother could be Naruto:D
We'll just have to wait and see.
^__^

Piano Tamer


Yup, I have piano practice!!! Joy T_T Not really. I mean, I love playing piano and all, but ever since college has started, I haven't really had time to even play my beautiful piano. And my piano teacher makes funny faces when I play the wrong notes or screaw up on a music piece:(
Must practice now!!!! Talk later:D
^_^

My first blog ever!!!!


I'm so excited to have a blog where I can write awesome stuff everyday^-^ It's kind of like a diary I guess, only people are always looking at what you write everyday, so I guess it's not really private.
Anyway, here's a little bit about myself: I'm 18 years old, I have dishwater blonde hair (it's close to brown), I have bright blue eyes, light skin (but it gets sun tanned during swim season), I'm about 5'3", my shoe size is 7 or 7 1/2, and that's kind of it (body wise that is).
I'm going to Merced JC college right now and I hope to succeed (so don't expect me to write everyday). For about six years, I've been on the Redfins swim team in my hometown (this also includes my 4 years on the high school swim team) and my favorite event is the 500 freestyle. Why? you ask. Because it's freaking fun and easy that's why!!! I'm an anime freak like everybody else is not "normal". Normal people are the ones who look at you like you're crazy because you always love talking about anime and cosplay^-^ I'm in love with fantasy so my goal in life is to write a fantasy series. You know, like Lord of the Rings or Narnia or something like that. Just something to entertain people with.
I know how to play the flute and piano. And to be honest, I'm starting to get lazy on them because I'm so busy with school:( Speaking of which, I've got to get back with my homework!!!!
Ciao, for now.
