*sigh* I'm feeling like such a brat today. I've had enough sleep though--9 hours last night and 8 hours the night before that-- so I'm not sure what's wrong. Dad's out right now, buying more vinegar 'cause we've run out and I flat out refused to eat lunch, making a show of putting my rice back in the pot and my fish with the rest. I messaged my thesis leader that I'll be late when all I really want to do is lock myself up in the room so I don't get into a fight with anyone today, like rp-ers who aren't tagging back (I'm normally patient, really).

>_<

Anyway--

Several nights ago, I had a dream in which we were rich. I don't remember much detail but I was fake-kidnapped to Riverside Park and then in a scene change I was paying 5 million to...someone for...something my sister did. Something like that. Life was still really messy but I handled it well and confidently 'cause I had money. Money might not be able to solve everything, but it can solve most things, and seriously make life easier.

Mom found out that I want to go to Canada a couple of weeks (months?) ago. Yesterday she was talking about sending me there to study after I graduate. I know better than to believe her; she's probably forgotten all about it by now.

Here are some pics from last weekend's photoshoot. The series is "Fairy Cube", a fantasy shoujo manga by Kaori Yuki (Angel Sanctuary). Even though it's by her though, the yaoi fangirl in that is me struggled to finish reading the manga for the shoot. It's--augh. I joined only 'coz it was Dycee who asked me to, and I keep forgetting how we almost-always almost-fight before every project together.orz

All pics by Kiko-san.

( Pretend you know/care about the series and look inside? )

Why do spiders have eight legs? It's been years since I last fangirled Kurapika hard--OK, not really. I think it was only last year that I was RP-ing him at Soel--but god, I still hate them. Not fear, hate.

And now it's my right eye that's swelling. Is there something in there that's crawling across my face or something? Oh god, and I've got a photoshoot this Sunday too.

The photoshoot that makes me want to tear my hair out. I was this close to starting a fight with the group leader yesterday.

It shouldn't be this hot at four in the morning.DX

*blinks* OK, looks like the pics have finished uploading. All images were taken by either Kiben-sama (TYL!Fuuta) or Naomi (Bianchi) and those that have his watermarks were edited by Kiben-sama. Click on the pics for larger versions.

My Gokudera pup has been accepted discedo!^_^ So happy~. I've fixed his profile and will look for icons when I get home, 'coz sch**l-internet sucks.DX May I have good free-to-grab-with-credit Gokudera icon recs, please?=D

And I ran my (real and full) name through the Mob Name Generator and got

Fits, Y/N? I ran the names of the Sanzo-ikkou through the generator too and got:

Genjo Sanzo - Fancy Pants
Gojyo Sha - Chimpy Nuts
Goku Son - Childlike Complexion
Hakkai Cho - The Pipsqueak

Um...this thing might be a bit broken. Maybe. Anyway~

( Last Saiyuki Gaiden Chapter Rambles, cut for spoilers )

So I'm off antibiotics for my pimple/boil (I accidentally removed the scab and the resulting scar looks like a light-colored mole on the bridge of my nose now) but now I'm on erythromycin for my cough that's gone on for more than a week. It's a pink tasteless tablet that I have to wake up at freaking six in the morning for. I'm getting really good at drinking pills and tablets though, seriously.

Anyway, Cosplay Fusion was yesterday, the supposed-to-be convention debut of my Gokudera Hayato cosplay. Except I had to leave the famiglia after lunch and then returned too late for the event/photoshoot. I feel much better now about it, but was really sulky last night, worrying even the Tenth who asked me what was wrong on the way home. Just stress and various problems and issues piling up, topped with that one bad day that I was supposed to enjoy. Nothing the Tenth should worry himself with, so I just told him it's nothing. I started crying when he fell asleep though.>_<

But, anyway, I'm going to post pics as soon as Kiben-sama, Team Corsivah's official photographer and TYL!Fuuta, has them up. He recorded TYL!Mukuro's and 2TYL!Lambo's catwalks too; I can't wait to see them! And, unless someone else from outside our famiglia joined the shoot, there should be pics of Tsuna, Colonello, Present-Mukuro, TYL!Mukuro, 2TYL!Lambo, TYL!Fuuta, Bianchi and Haru. Not even half of the famiglia could make it, unfortunately.D=

Rambling on~

( Cut for anime and spoilers )

And now, on to Saiyuki~

( Cut for spoilers to last chapter of Reload )

Finally, here's a meme I can kind of totally forgot to fill up from ekmisao .^^;;'

Reply to this meme by yelling "Words!" and I will give you five words that remind me of you. Then post them in your LJ and explain what they mean to you.

( Nanowrimo (obviously), cosplay, Saiyuki, KHR in general, writing. )

At this rate, I'll just end up staying the entire night without accomplishing anything anyway.

Should I just sleep? But, they'll be expecting tomorrow.

Augh. I especially hate being a girl once a month.

So sleepy...

Got home from hanging out with Nikki around half an hour ago, some seven and a half hours of lounging in her apartment and then going to the mall. The trip to the Crime Lab this morning and then the thesis meeting after feels like ages ago, even farther away in time than the last time I saw her. It's great to have her back, seriously.

I had my hair cut short yesterday. I don't look that much different (hell, mom and dad didn't even notice), but Nikki said I should start wearing girl's clothes or I'll get mistaken as a guy. Though I got my hair cut for my character in the photoshoot of that shoujo manga I mentioned in my previous post-- a girl who pretends to be/is mistaken as a guy. So I guess it'll work out. I hope. I finished it, btw, and hate it.

Meanwhile, I've finally gotten my assignment from khr_projects' Fairy Tale Anthology Project: Beauty and the Beast - oneshot (8059). I'm looking forward to start working on it since I've ironed out a lot of details with Nikki earlier already. Ah, I wish I could say the same for my 7thnight_smut prompt.

Oh, and I've got two dreamwidth codes, if anyone wants 'em.

It's my thesis leader's birthday so we ended early and I've just gotten back home, right? I've eaten a sandwich, taken my meds, and set up my laptop--and BAM! Nikki messages me that she'll be arriving in sch**l soon and will I meet up with her at the bank? Note that it's only around 3 and her class doesn't start until 6. And that I haven't seen her in, like, three weeks now.

With the exception of Rebocon 2009--which my friend who had sent me the extras uploaded and posted links at hitman_reborn (check out Bel's rehearsal in Extra 10, you can see Yamamoto dancing among the back-up dancers) --and the latest KHR chapter featuring Yamamoto's utter cute/coolness-- which I no longer feel like rambling about, so have a pic and a few questions instead:
( Cut for spoilers to the manga )

-- I feel reeeeeeeally sucky.

*turns into a whimpering ball...that has to finish reading a fantasy shojo manga for a friend's troublesome photoshoot (please kill me)*

Favorite Pairings: ♥8059♥, 5927, ColonelloXLal, MukuHiba. Yeah, I tend to stick to common fannons.^^;; Though I've felt like shipping SpannerXIrie recently too...

--Was what I wrote in the KHR Friending Meme. I totally forgot:



InoueXIchinose

Aka YamaGoku seiyuus. Because while I absolutely adore how Ichinose-san (Gokudera) gives Kokubun (Tsuna) special treatment that reflects the 5927 hints in the anime only the blind wouldn't be able to see, these two are <333.

Those two screens are from the Rebocon 2009 "extras" by the way, which one of the members of SIGIL showed me. Totally made up for the bummer that is most of Rebocon 2009 being taken from youtube.=( I'll rave about them more tomorrow...maybe. For now though, it's 2AM and I need some sleep. Looooong day yesterday with most of the afternoon spent playing L4D with Team Corsivah and then hanged out with SIGIL family afterwards. Talk about stress-relief. I still miss Nikki something awful though...

...er...yeah.^^;; Later~.<3

Welcome to my new friends from the KHR friending meme, btw!!^_____________^ I can now ramble about KHR and have more than two people actually understand what the hell I'm talking about, haha.^^;;

<3333333

Warning: Spoilers and Possible incoherence induced by extreme fangirling.

Start at Part 1

( lengthy!fangirling is lengthy!! )

My Tsuna is...

...too talkative.
...flailing too much.
...refuses to calm down.
...using too many !'s
...
...
...asdfghjkl;IDK. He just doesn't feel right.DX And I can't even blame it on sleepiness 'coz I ain't sleepy yet no more.

Someone help please?

...I need more KHR-fans in my f-list.OTL

It's been awhile since I've last RP-ed and even longer since I did at a multi-fandom comm. Father (car_jack) has recently returned to pastimperfectrp as Homura, so my Kami's thread with the three gods should be steadily rolling again soon. Meanwhile, my Tsuna application to aegean_iterum has been accepted today...right along with a Hibari it looks like.x_X... and I've set up his journal (dame_27) and everything this morning too. I can't wait to start roleplaying, but I'm also a bit scared that I won't be able to IC them properly.

7thnight_smut is still not going very well. I'm wondering if it might help to change their names to fit the setting, but I really don't like changing characters' names. It also insists on starting with this one scene that I don't know how to end and, worse, unravels the whole plot (what little, vague idea I have for it) and that's just annoying. meicdon13 suggested that I jump around and write scenes but the problem is, I have no real plot as of yet and am winging it(?), so to speak. *sigh* And sch**l resumes on Monday too. All I've accomplished these last nine days is participate in drama and rest a lot.

The latter not so bad, I guess. Except, yeah, I haven't gotten much of anything done. And I'm sleepy now again...Going offline and napping right about now. Whap me when you see me later, Meic!:D

I HAS PINOYWRIMO 2008 ANTHOLOGY IN PAPERBACK!

...err. That wasn't supposed to come out first. But, whatever.

Reasons for catching the fever:

• Been talking with Nikki about a plausible plot for this year's NaNo for WEEKS now.
• Saw Sam Cob* in sch**l last week while waiting in line at the Photocopy Machine.
• Talked a little with Ari* over at Plurk last week(?). I dunno what the original topic was, but the conversation turned to NaNo, of course.
• Bumped into EK* last Monday in one of the discussion threads in hitman_reborn, LOL. No wonder ekmisao sounded familiar.^^;;
• Talked later that day(?) with Sele* in plurk too.

*PinoyWrimos

And, you know, I've been doing almost nothing but watching ReboCon (and thesis) in the past two days and it's NaNo-free and--BAM!



PinoyWrimo 2008 Anthology in Glossy Cover Paperback.=D It's so thick and a A-MA-ZING. I ordered it at the end of last month using the CreateSpace discount I got for winning NaNo last year and, err, totally forgot about it, haha.^^;; So I was really confused when I got the notice for the parcel this morning. And asdfghjkl;'d when the customs guys opened it at the post office, SO pretty.*_*

Too bad my NaNo 2008 story sucks. And LOL at sudden "Your browser may not support display of this image".xDDD My bad; I should remember to use a simpler divider for scene cuts next time. But still, the book looks so sweet.

It's seriously, seriously too early to catch the NaNo fever though.D: Plot animals! Get to work on 7thnight_smut  instead, damnit!

...There's a KHR fanfic in the anthology.O_o

It's past 1AM and I'm not sleepy yet.D= But then again I can't expect to be, not when I napped from around 1pm to around 9pm earlier yesterday. A "nap", ahaha. It's just that, my left eye's started to swell again like it did last April and sleeping it off earlier seemed like a good idea. Oh, I had a really good rest (especially since I was talking with Mast a_mael right before^^), but now my body clock will be all out of whack again, ahaha.^^;;

Not that it really matters. Not for a week anyway. A case of swine flu was confirmed in sch**l last Wednesday and the university self-imposed a quarantine until the 14th. I should be really happy for the break, and my thesis leader hasn't even bugged us for thesiswork, but the past four days has been god-awful stressful.DX But I'm feeling OK now, I think. Just thinking that, if our thesis leader pokes us about work today, I'll feel really sucky wasting the 'break' I got.

Anyway--

I haven't written a single word yet, but I'm trying to get back into writing. I joined 7thnight_smut, of course, and my prompt...needs a lot of research. Which I'm doing, but I think I'm still going to screw it up, ahaha.^^;; I hope not though.~_~ And then I signed up for khr_projects' Fairytale Project, deciding to stick with classics--Beauty and the Beast, Cinderella and Aladdin-- for my choice of fairytales, and my OTP in the fandom-- YamaGoku (8059). This is before I realized that knowing no one in the fandom means I have no beta yet though.OTL I'm sure I'll manage. Somehow...

RO!twin? Guil!twin? Listy? Where are you all RP-ing these days? I've been trying to find a multi-fandom comm with a solid KHR cast...but there doesn't seem to be any.D= So I figured I'll jump somewhere where I know people. Or something. Any fun, low-pressure but active RPs out there..?

Oh, 'niisan? How do I quit Sweet Temptations?D= I can't seem to find the form for quitting anywhere...

Um. I'm hungry.

I admit to missing it if I hadn't checked my f-list and saw other greetings, I'm sorry.OTL

But I hope you had/are having a good day.=D

*hugs*

First, there was Anime North last weekend and then there's this:



I seriously wish I lived in the US/Canada. And had lots of money for travel and cosplay and stuff.

Kthnxbai.OTL

Gaiden.T_T I've read the Russian chapter and almost cried over pp16-17, but didn't. I think I might just cry my way to sore eyes once the translations are out though. And--

( SPOILER ALERT! )

---

This is rather late, but I might as well talk about our "swimming" trip~

The ride to Bulacan was long but fun, shock-filled with stories and harmless jokes that are norm for SIGIL. As we entered Bulacan though, (comfortable) silences occurred more often, and longer, which led to the (half-meant) joke that this might be why Zychez is so quiet; he's arguably the quietest member of SIGIL. But, really, the place was really rather quiet.

Zychez met up with us at Barasoain Church. It's something of a tourist spot here in the Philippines (it's in the old 10-peso bill) and it was my first time going there--but it was rather disappointing, really. I don't know if it was the wedding going on or the fact that I haven't stepped foot inside a large church in a long while, but it just didn't feel like a church to me. And while it reminded me of the St. Joseph's Parish (something of a tourist spot as well because of its Bamboo Organ), I like St. Joseph's better.

(I just happened to read the end of the wiki article on the Bamboo Organ and--Msgr. Allen is in Peru right now?O_o He was our sch**l director when I still went to St. Joseph's Academy so it's kind of weird to think...the concept of missionaries have always been rather odd/fascinating to me. *shrug*)

( More~ )

My writing. It sucks.>_< And sch**l starts on Monday!!T_T KILL ME!

---

I feel sucky for not being able to go to AN this year.OTL And for touching my saved-up money for it for cosplay after giving up.>_< I'll reeeeeeally try to go next year though. In the meantime, please have fun, you guys.^_^ Oh, and I'm calling rroselavy's hotel room maybe Saturday night (gotta check timetables on what time that is here...) so I'm looking forward to talking with everyone staying with her/coming over!=D

---

P.S. My friends page is SWAMPED with entries from hitman_reborn. I got myself 19 yummy doujinshis (234MB) though, so I'm a bit reluctant to stop watching the community...but, yeah, I probably should.~_~ Just presenting you with my uber!lame excuse for failing to check my f-list properly. I'm sorry, f-list!!T_T

I was gonna blog about something serious before going off to bed but Juudaime posted pics from our pre-shoot last May 7 and he forgot to take out pictures of the kitten I killed that day and now I'm a trembling wreck.>_< I accidentally closed the door on her and snapped her spine into two and she was writhing on the floor and I couldn't let go of the door 'coz it would have hit her again so I was forced to stand there and watch her...

...OK, writing about it does not help. It's making the images worse.>_< I'm gonna go to bed.

T_T

-------------------------------

I need to meet Kyn in about an hour so of course I had to have the urge to write this up right now, right? *facepalm* Not that this would be a long entry, I don't think. Writing Skillz. I has None.>_< I don't know if I've let them deteriorate or what, but I can't even write journal entries now. And not for lack of trying, seriously.

...Wait. Did I even say that right? "Not for lack of trying?"~_~

And Nikki wants a fic for her birthday present.OTL

~Anyway, I got to, uh, run. Ahaha.^^;; My cosplay group, SIGIL, is having a swimming trip today and, yeah, I already mentioned Kyn and I should really be in the shower right about now--so I'll just leave you guys a pic (two, actually) to explain why I was gone for a bit and not checking my f-list.~_~

( Can I say a picture is Worth a thousand words? *shot* )

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL THE MOMS IN MY F-LIST!^_____^ *cuddles you all*

...So, yeah, I've been pretty scarce and I haven't checked my f-list in the last half week or so. I'm so sorry.~_~ I'll have a post on what I've been doing up soon...maybe.OTL And I'll get back to diligently checking my f-list asap. If I've missed anything important in the last few days though, please, please poke here~.

EDIT: Wait! What?? I missed 58 day, augh!!DX

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MEIC!=D

...my god, that hurts the eyes. Worst greeting ever, but whatever. Happy Birthday, meicdon13! I LOVE YOU, DARLING~.=D (Wait. What.)
