Yup, I suck. I can't say that I'm NOT abandoning my fan-fiction since I haven't updated them in a long while. It makes me feel horrible since I'm sure there are people who are expecting me to continue. The truth is? I'm just never in the mood to type a fan-fiction. I'm the kind of person who does better at one-shots or Role-plays. I also have lost an interest in general about Naruto....OF COURSE! I still read the manga, and from what I can think of the only ship I have is Hashi-Mada. Wait, also Kisa-ita. That is about it for my pairings with that series.
I DO pair Itachi with other people....In role-plays. Which involve Sebastian Michaelis.
I'm horrible I know.
Onto other news!
January-
*It started rather grand, until I realized Moneypak is horrible. Don't trust it. Seriously. I lost 250 by putting my money in that card and then trying to put it in Paypal.
*Classes started on the 22nd, which is two days before my birthday! Woo! For those that don't know, I'm studying in a Technical school due to my college out-right lying to me about having a course I wanted to take. They told me this the day of Orientation and said "Oh, it's alright! We have classes you can take for that here though we'd need to put you under a four year 'general' major." No. You LIED to me. You said in the beginning you would have my course, then the moment I ask where my schedule is in Orientation you say it was taken out. So, I'm in a Technical school near my home for Digital Design.
Can I just say how amazing that course is too? Not only do I have awesome people in my class, but just the course is teaching me interesting topics I never knew about. Oh, and that you can act like Tony Stark and get people to know you. No joke people. At a party, or social event go take a glass of anything (soda,wine, whatever floats your boat!) and go to an open window (DON'T JUMP) and just stand there. They'll see you like that and think "My, what an outstanding man/woman. I want to talk to them!" and swarm to you. This is what my book told me. It was some "Business Etiquette" book.
*The 24th was my Birthday- nothing too special happened here but I did get money from my grandparents to replace what I lost from MoneyPak.
*I was super excited because my commissioner finally said they shipped out my Kid Loki Cosplay only to be disappointed when it didn't come. In fact it STILL hasn't come and it's a month since she sent it. I feel horrible, scammed, and want a refund. What annoys me though is how she's never even given me a picture of the costume. Anytime I asked? Nope. Conversation goes quiet. Don't get another reply til I message her again days later. *sigh*
February-
*Class is awesome, and soon.....so very god damn soon we're going to stop with the damn "Office" programs and work on actual design software. I'm also taking time to study and try to pass that one certification test for Photo-shop. Why? The school bought 10 vouchers for 300 (I think?) and no one is ready to take it. It has pissed the school off, so they told our teacher to offer it up to anyone who wants one. So they did. For 40 dollars each voucher. SCORE. If any of you don't know what a certification test is? It's the test you take if you want to prove to an employer you know your stuff in a program. Culinary, CNA, Hair Stylist, ALL have this test and it just shows you're better than someone who studies off You-tube and never took an actual course. They all vary, but for Digital Design you can take 4+ tests: one for each program which is 70 dollars each. And to get it for 40? It is a deal you can't miss!
*I have commissioned two people to make my costumes. Both seem to be more reliable than the other person I commissioned. The person doing my first costume (Star Spangled Tony) will not be named until she is done with it. Just so no one jumps her before then I guess, but I've followed her work since the beginning of my cosplay/anime fan years in 2008. So I can't wait to see what happens. The second person is actually in my state. So if they messed up, I could easily hunt them down. But I doubt they will and they already showed me material that came in already. I've also done "business" with them before as I bought from them before. The costume is Gold Foxx.
fc03.deviantart.net/fs71/f/201… I'm excited, and pretty freaked out really since it'll be my first "fur-suit" costume. I know it's just the head, and tail but well...It'll be different having to wear a huge head.
