A stream of conciousness...

It's that time of year again...

My Student Finance forms came through the post this morning ;-; I swear there's the equivalent of one tree in every envelope...Why do they have to make it such a darn mission to complete the process? ^^" *brainbreakage* I guess, though, if they're lending X number of students Y amounts of money, they have to make sure they do at least something to earn it...>____> *shot*

At least we don't seem to be the only ones confused, though, since the weather can't seem to make up its mind what to do, either XD It's been trying to snow all morning here, which is a bit crazy since the day before yesterday was bright sunshine, and yesterday was rain and hail storms Oo" Global Warming certainly does make things very exciting~ o____o

I forgot to mention it yesterday, but I saw two films over the last few days: 'Silk' and 'Atonement', and both of them I'd really reccommend to anyone who hasn't seen them yet; they're so moving and beautiful~~~
The cinematography and the visual impact of both films is absolutely stunning, and the acting's very good (with casts like that, though, I guess that's a sort of given ^^") although they do leave you feeling in dire need of some comfort food XD
But yes: for anyone who fancies a quiet evening in with some films that'll make you think a bit and move you (across the sofa for the tissue box, most likely >____>), those are definitely a good choice ^^

BBC 2007 production of 'Oliver Twist' on DVD - zohmygodlove! <3<3<3

Happy Easter~! (Beware: Bleach Spoilers O.O)

Well, good grief - this year's really going by quickly ^^" Which is probably a relief to some, since the number of (really, really brave o___o) people I know that gave up chocolate for Lent was so high this year! Kudos, guys - you've got more guts than I have...^^" *munches on chocolate to calm nerves*

I'm always really impressed by people who give stuff up for Lent, though...I know you don't necessarily have to be Christian to do it, but I still think that kind of willpower's pretty impressive XD Ahh, if I could find it in me to give up doing holiday work for Lent, I would - just too tempting, though...Loves me some of that holiday-set uni work, yes I do.
...¬.¬"

Someone not deserving of kudos, however, is Kubo Tite. Dude - wtf with the cliffhangers already?! ;-; I wanna know what happens~! *flails* (And where, oh pray tell, is Grimmjow in all of this? Poor guy's just been left KOed somewhere in the margins - he deserves a pay rise for all of this, darnit! XD)
Things are definitely picking up pace, though...How many more twists can we take? O.O The Bleach plot's twistier than a tornado in a chinese burn, now~! D: The only downside of being 100% up-to-date with Japanese releases is that you only get one revelation a week ¬.¬" We'll all need councilling at the end of this series - seriously...^^"

Also...Fez made it to two decades old~! O.O Which, with her list of bizarre accidents, is actually really impressive~! XD Happy Birthday for the 20th, twinling X3 *throws cake and balloons*

Yuck

Ugh. Woken up with a stomach bug. This blows, big time -___-"

Neo-vintage...?

Sun, 24 Feb 2008 14:00:17 GMT

It's that time again: time to slather on the makeup, put on the outlandish clothes and go stand out somewhere freezing to pull silly poses infront of the camera. That's right! Fashion shoot time ;D
And today it's neo-50s; how awesome is that?! I get to wear huge poofy skirts and have my hair curled and wear red shoes~!!! *squees* I'm actually typing this wearing the biggest fake, feathered eyelashes you've ever seen and looking like I just stepped out of Paris Fashion Week ^^" I haven't had breakfast yet...;-;

Only a week until MinamiCon now, too - which will be a whole new level of epicness =D I'm really excited about debuting my Steampunk cosplay - I may well be wrong, but I think we'll be the first ever Steampunk group to cosplay in England, so that merits alot of effort X3 That said, I have been working on this thing for about a month, now (finally finished my little mechanical wings last night!!! O.O), so hopefully it'll go down really well ^^" Here's keepin' mah fingers crossed!!! Vill post fotos when hav sum, ya? >.>

In any case, my stomach is eating itself; better go get food before I implode~<3 Ikuyooo~~~ *flounce*

The LJ is a lie!

Sat, 16 Feb 2008 10:30:24 GMT

...Hah. Remember when I said hopefully I'd update this thing more? *points down* July 2007? I lied. ¬3¬"

Sad to say not a great deal's changed so far XD Although I have started uni O.O So maybe alot has changed? Still bumming around being a shameless fangirl and crack artist, though >D Serious adult education is no match for my powers of immaturity! *pose*

Unfortunately, it's mainly house-hunting messes at the moment...I never knew the process was so stressful! Everyone keeps stealing them ;-; But we have about 5 lined up today, so hopefully we'll actually have some luck and find a nice one that nobody else has nabbed yet XD
I'll also be going home for the first time in a while =D It'll be good to eat stuff that isn't...kind've...mauled by me and the resident halls kitchen oven >o> *shot*
I really should learn to cook -.-" Haha.

In any case: in between juggling webcomics, making cosplays, being far more addicted to certain series than I should be and actually getting down to doing some uni work (haha! Yeah, right...>__>), I still seem to be surviving O.o" This is unexpectedly surprising to me XD

...Although I haven't done any washing for about three weeks; so I probably should go take care of that now ^^"

(p.s. somebody kill Nnoitura for me for stealing Grimmjow's airtime ¬¬" Curse you, Kubo Tite!!! *shakesfist*)

A woman found out if she shook it, she could shake up a man...

Hairspray is the most awesome movie this year O_O *dances infront of her computer* It makes me want to get out my little polkadot number and red shoes and go do the Twist XD
But who knew James Marsden could sing like that? Oo" Nice to see a film where the main character isn't 'transformed' to be conventionally pretty, too - Tracy's so cute X3 *cheers* Beehives for-eva~<3

Wallpaper~

Thu, 12 Jul 2007 17:37:03 GMT

Sorry this is a bit late ^^" Mishaps with photobucket ¬¬" *shakes fist* In any case, the requested wallpaper for the lovely <lj user="ravengirl76"> - thank you for the link and the praise, doll =D

Hope it doesn't look too repulsive in all its blue and orange glory >__> I get a little bit carried away sometimes ^^"

Cats are totally making my month~!

Went to see Shrek 3 with the usual suspects today: didn't have me in stitches as much as I was hoping, but it was well-worth seeing for the quality of the animation, and for the return of Puss in Boots, who I swear is the sexiest feline on earth save for Grimmjow XD
Also really loved the soundtrack - sadly my characteristic student destitution deprived me of the money to buy it on a follow-up excursion to HMV, but luckily a friend bought it instead, so I may have to beg an illicite copy >__> *bad* ;-;

I also just remembered today how amazing the Peacemaker and Saiyuki manga are; Fez is conducting a major pre-uni clear-out-and-sell-everything operation in her room, so I finally got back all the stuff I've lent her over the years dumped back on me today XD Plus a copy of Neverwinter Nights 2, which is going to be awesome to play O_O Goodbye social life -__-" *waves*

"I woke up before noon. Go me." - I so know that feeling XD

rises from the ashes

Well, I've finally got off my ass and resurrected myself on LJ~! Woot! All the best villains make a surprise comeback ;D And to celebrate, I bear pr0n of the crack OTP kind >__> You know you're in need of more fangirl friends when you start asking your parents for advice on drawing proportions for questionable fanart XD

Only just over a month until Ame, now, and I still have a tonne of stuff to do *cry* Plenty of fanart still to come in prep. for setting up market in Artists' Alley, though (*got smart last year*), so hopefully this journal will see a bit more life than it's predecessor has over the last three years XD

...On the thought of cosplaying and torrentially wet English summers, I'm going to be screwed if it rains when I'm wearing my Ulquiorra costume >__>
Oh, the happy times to come ^^" Ja~!
