Things that are awesome:

.

1) Friends, true friends, who will call you out and protect you from yourself and your own burgeoning hypocrisy. ::smiles:: And the worthwhile conversations thereof.

2) The end of Monster, which I read this morning. Johan and embodiment and yes. Yes. Mm. And LUNGE. Clearly.

3) Hearing this morning that my abstract for the Matsuno/Nietzsche OTP Paper has been accepted by the Blackwell series and that I get to spend the summer discussing Ubermenschen and the Houses of Ivalice. Rough draft due 9/1. HELLS THE FUCK YES.

4) Little Stepbrothers.

5) Getting a Hostessing job to pass the weekends and make travel money with, and still have time to look for a second job during the weeks.

6) [info]angelofmurphy. Also his entire clan.

7) The sound of kids playing with firecrackers outside.

8) Conversations about DDS meta- with [info]harukami~

9) Impending trial-lessons with people at Purchase -- and the precursor, that [info]lindensphinx is likewise awesome. I need to vocalise, a lot, get back into shape, but. But. I will do this.

10) [info]puella_nerdii. In general.

11) Chocolate-covered fruit. Also chocolate-covered pretzels.

12) Size six skirts still fitting even when I'm closer to 160 than 150.

13) Having all the winners of the SSU!C submit their prompts to me and not getting one I don't look forward to writing. And most of them are different territory than the stuff I have done lately--new characters, or fandoms on hiatus, or things that are bright and new.

14) Conversations about TB/X meta- with [info]akk that last ALL MORNING and result in life imitating art and v/v.

15) One-shouldered shirts.

16) My room slowly starting to develop floor space.

17) Not paying rent anymore.

18) Being entirely assured that I am going (the fuck) to Otakon.

19) New friends.

20) Wearing a big glittery Union Jack on 7/4.

21) Being able to say that 20+ things are awesome after twelve hours awake.

Any Bleachers attending San Diego Comic-Con?

So, a friend of mine and I are trying to get over to Comic-Con for the special event of July 26 - Bleach Day! Where Kubo Tite is the guest of honor, and will give autographs and have a panel.

One problem though it's in California, and we're in Texas. Well, money's not the MAIN issue, but we're trying.

So on topic: Who in this community is planning on attending this convention? I'm curious! ^_^

You know you love Iron Man SO MUCH you use a whole ink cartridge

I love Iron Man, I love Robert Downey Jr, I love movie posters!
I really wanted an Iron Man movie poster, but I realize my heart was set on the International version over the Domestic. It just looks color and alot more badass plus no "floating heads" but I'm in a pinch this summer, and I can't afford the ones on ebay plus most of them are coming from Asia and I can't pay insured shipping for a poster costing me $6.99 when the shipping is like $30..

so I got adventerous...I said, well why don't I make the post myself. Heck, I got an empty poster frame...what do I have to lose?


Lots of ink of course..

Akihabara!

So today we finally went to Akihabara, the land of maid cafes, otaku, and electronics. (It's even called Akihabara Electric City.) We only had a quick browse around since we were easily distracted by the electronic and anime shops.

A Shot of Akihabara )

I have to admit I'm not so much into the anime good collecting as I was when I was younger, but I did appreciate all the cute Ghibli stuff scattered around. There's certainly oddities like bubble wrap keycains (where you can pretend to pop it,) and pea-popping key chains. I actually really wanted to get one, but nothing beats the real feel of bubble wrap. Then there was the really weird stuff like bread in a can, wasabi and curry soda, and...random food in cans.

Curry Soda and Bubble Wrap Keychains )

They had all these nifty cameras and tons of pink laptops. (Oh how I want one. D:) I was about to buy an unbelievably minuscule flash drive (extendable and in pink,) but I went for epic SONY earphones instead. They were on sale too, 15% off! I've only had earbuds, but these are my first heavy duty type. I have to say they're wonderful. It's like HYDE is right next to me. Perfect considering I'd just bought VAMP's single Love Addict yesterday in Shibuya along with Hikaru Utada's HEART STATION.

Jenn and I shall be trying a maid care tomorrow, hopefully a more classy one compared to the rest. CURE MAID CAFE sounds hopeful.

Oh lawd, I sound like an otaku. orz


Totoros! (Akihabara)

Happy Fourth of July, fellow Americans! \o/ I'll be in Florida in just five more days! *A*

I was just thinking about this, but when did Lore become my permanent nickname? XD NOT THAT I MIND, but people actually used to call me Lorelei, like "HEY LORELEI" or "Today Lorelei and I talked on AIM" and whatnot, but I never see that anymore (and hardly anybody calls me Lori now, either). Also, now I have people actually asking me what 'Lore' means, HAHAHA. It's short for LORELEI, losers! >8| I even fill out RP apps and stuff as just 'Lore', so I guess it's infective!

Thinking about names and nicknames, how did you guys choose your nicknames? Or if you don't have one, why did you decide to stick with your real name? Lorelei's my English name, and I pretty much randomly chose it out of a book because I liked the meaning and it starts with the same letter as my Vietnamese name.

[info]telecast is probably the only username I've had that I don't have an amazing story for why I chose... I saw it and instantly liked it. The first thing that came to mind was the Fender Telecaster. My brother just bought a black one a week or so ago, and it's the most gorgeous guitar I've ever seen. *A* I don't even play guitar, but I guess when I saw the name, that's what it was associated with, so I liked it even though the actual meaning has nothing to do with me. I hardly watch TV, probably less than an hour a week! D8

Anyway I probably won't be around much today, I'm spending the day with my parents. XD My brother flew out to San Jose yesterday afternoon, so it's just the three of us now. A little lonely, but we're going to freaking GRAPEVINE MALL, so I'm not going to mope about my lack of annoying sidekick. XD♥ Hope everyone else has a great day.
