Quick Update

I do not post often anymore. I have been kind of busy. Mostly been on Tumblr, Gaming, or School, and Work.
Pottermore is finally open. <3 I am a Ravenclaw, and my wand is 10" Sycamore with Unicorn Hair Core.
I have been playing World of Warcraft, neutrally playing both my Horde, and Alliance Characters.
I was home for a few days over the Easter Break but I didn't plan anything because my plans always get screwed up by just about everything. I got to see the group I seen at Christmas plus a bunch of new people. It was crazy fun.
School is almost over, I am done next Friday. I have just my Media classes left, and my assessment in Drawing, and 3D. I am then back to work for Full-Time. I really have enjoyed my year at the college a lot more than I ever did at University. I cannot wait to go into Diploma Studies!!!!!
I will hopefully be publishing an official website this summer. <3 I have been working on it forever but I have my main ideas plotted out.
I cut my bangs myself the other day, and it did not turn out that bad. :)
Animaritime is coming up, and I shall be running the Lolita panel this year. I have a new wig coming in too, and an un-debuted dress in my closet. <3 I am cosplaying but right now I have no idea how that is gonna go.
Acadian is having another meeting at the end of the month, and hopefully they resolve everything...

Semester One Coming to a Close

Semester one is coming to a quick close. I cannot wait to be done Foundation year. I am so glad I made some awesome friends though~
I got dumped with all the final projects in one week, and that wasn't too bad except for the broadness of the subject matter we could do which is art, and craft. I decided to do one on Tuxedo colours, and contrasts, and one on Lolita. They were not to bad to work on.
I have been going to all the gallery openings that I can, and visiting galleries when I can.
I joined the Grad Council, and am volunteering as a fashion model for the fashion department.
I am excited for next semester where I finally get to try the studio I really want to do~ I am doing Graphic Design right now, and I did Ceramics already, so next semester I do Fashion, Textiles, Jewelry, and Photography which is a great combination but I can see there being trouble in Jewelry.
Every Sunday that we can we do a different thing at someone's place between the five of us. Last week we played Arkham Horror which is a pretty awesome board game based off of books by H.P. Lovecraft, and we also played Apples to Apples. We watched the Walking Dead Season one another time. We made fajitas, and cupcakes at my place, and watched Tangled, and played Jenga, and Apples to Apples.
The Acadian Bus Line in New Brunswick/Prince Edward Island are going on strike as of last Friday leaving a lot of students stuck for Christmas. Did they ever screw up.

I cannot wait for Christmas Break because I will be completely free to do as I please. World of Warcraft, and my own art~

I woke up to find my poor little hamster dead this morning. She was around eight months old.

Snowball (Russian White Dwarf Hamster) May ??/11 - Decemeber 6/11

She held a special place in my heart from the first moment I saw her.

Halloween 2011

I was kept so busy this past week working on Halloween stuff. Halloween is a huge even for the school. Every year there is a haunted house competition for all the studios, and usually the foundation year joins a studio since they don't usually get a place. This year was different; the foundation year got the student lounge, and worked with another studio which have a room in the other building which is still under construction. We did an Insane Asylum, and I got to be a guide. It was great fun though with our practice run through one of our zombies grabbed me, and I screamed. I wore my purple plaid Lolita outfit too. I also wore my glasses which I normally don't do with my Lolita outfits.

All the studios but two did a haunted house, and I went to two out of three, or four. They were really good. There were some great scares. There were other haunted houses in the city, and there was one I went to last year that was amazing but I didn't get to go to any other haunted houses. The only one I went through was the studio to win, and it was amazing. They did Fiber Hell as a theme.

Friday was Costume Contest Day. I was rather excited for this. I did a coordination Lolita of "Candy Princess." I wore my Metamorphose Candy Land Popping Balloons dress with the alice bow, socks, pink mary-janes, my wig, and a few other accessories that matched the theme. I even hunted down a cupcake shaped lollipop. I won most creative, and my roommate also won a title as well. This isn't a very flattering photo but it was the only one taken.

I watched the Nightmare Before Christmas on Friday evening with my roommates since I have never seen it before. I have to say I liked it. There are so many movies I haven't seen, because I never got to see them as a kid.

We went to a costume contest Saturday night, and it was great fun. Before this happened we had an episode of the downstairs cat escaping so we ran around in the dark looking for the cat which we eventually caught. I wore a maid costume, and I realized that it left black dye all around my waist, and where it stopped on my arms.  

Did Trick-or-Eat Monday night on the official Halloween date. This was my first time attending the event. I only borrowed my roommate's cat ears. It was a lot of fun, and I was in an outside part of the city I have never been to before. Another group's route overlapped ours so we walked for a bit, and then got lost. We did make it back to the car, and dropped our food off, and then the bus came. I met some new people seeing as my roommate found us a group to join. 

As of Friday it has officially been a year since I left university to follow something more my style, and that I got accepted to where I am currently going. I couldn't be happier. I have made some great new friends, and I am learning so much. 

I got a new brand of contact lenses, and they are a lot more comfortable. They are easier to insert, but I find them quite difficult to remove. I even have new cleaning solution with a contraption that scares me. It is mostly the solution, because I have seen, and heard the horror stories of the solution. I might be able to get coloured lenses, and my doctor will look into it. I am so happy, I may be limited to colour, but oh well. All the time my hopes go up, and down with this subject it gets really hard sometimes but I haven't given up yet.

Now it is time to let my body rest as I am beginning to get sick. I still have to focus on schoolwork though.

Decisions... Decisions....

After putting a lot of thought into I will be no longer doing cosplay. I really don't see the point in buying costumes that I am only going to wear once. I just can't see myself doing it anymore. All my cosplays sucked, I don't have the looks for it anyways. I will still attempt to do Lolita but I will probably stick with the dresses I have, and work on items for coordination, which will mostly be accessories.
I am working on finding a second job, my current job will always be my safety net, which is a bit relieving. I am just sad my hours are half of what they used to be a week....
I have been mostly working on art, now that big project I planned for myself I at least have a draft sketch for the most part. I have been working on other things too.
Pokémon Black has been pretty fun so far, I only play little parts at a time though.
