Just a Beat Out of Place

Hey everyone! Back from San Japan. Super tired. At work. God, I just want to be back in bed. \

BUT I ONLY HAVE THREE MORE DAYS OF WAKING UP LIKE THIS, SO I REALLY SHOULDN'T BE COMPLANING.

San Japan broke down like this:

Friday - Woke up (AGAIN AT 4:30, UGH), picked up stuff, drove up to Katy to pick up Pixie's and my friend, Jessica. Drove to San Antonio. That took us until 10, and we checked in/unpacked/got ready by 11 in time for lunch. Pixie spent that day as N Harmonia from Pokemon, got a ton of pictures taken of her, and Jessica was a Red Fem!Scout from Team Fortress 2. Around 2, Pixie went and changed into Organization Roxas for a few hours, but that coat is hot as hell, even in the air conditioning, so she was only Roxas for a couple of hours before switching back into N. We met up with a couple of friends and hung out before heading back up to the room for the rave.

Where I fell asleep. So I couldn't go to the rave. *sadfaces* Jessica and Pixie were pulled onto the stage apparently.

SATURDAY - Since Pixie and Jessica didn't get back into the rooms until 3 in the morning, it took us until 11 to even get started. We got lunch out of cosplay, and immediately went to put Jessica and Pixie into Zim and Dib cosplay from Invader Zim. Oh man. This one was popular. We were maybe out in it for four hours, and everyone was stopping them for pictures. And Jessica as Zim is hilarious.

STORY TIME.

One person asked them if Pixie and Jessica could hug for her picture. They did and almost immediately another girl was like "NOW KISS". Since Pixie and Jessica are ZADR shippers, they kissed and there was this HUGE squeal around us. They got practically tackled by one girl who was just walking by when they did this. It was ... actually pretty awesome.

But Zim's makeup is really uncomfortable, so we went back up to the room so Pixie and Jessica could change BACK into N and Fem!Scout. Spent the rest of the day in that. GOT TO SEE EGORAPTOR'S PANEL!!

Tried to rave that night, but Pixie had pulled something in her leg, and the DJ wasn't good enough for me to stick around, so I went back up to the room with Pixie and we just hung out until we fell asleep.

SUNDAY - Woke up at 9:30, decided almost immediately that there was going to be NO cosplaying that day, because everything hurt. Seriously, all three of us were sore. No more raving in heels. Bad, bad idea. Walked the floor and bought some gifts for friends before we headed home.

Alright, second story time.

I have this... thing. Any roadtrip I drive on where I'm not following someone else who knows where they're going, I end up taking at least one wrong exit. Normally, I notice before I get too far. BUT APPARENTLY on Sunday, I decided that WEST was the way to go, not EAST. So I exited on 410-WEST. That was the right way, right?

NO. NO IT WAS NOT.

So I uh, basically circled San Antonio for forty minutes before hitting I-10 and going "... EL PASO IS THE WRONG DIRECTION, GET ON EAST, SHIT, I AM AN IDIOT".

That is the "How Zene picked the wrong exit to take this roadtrip" story for this convention.

HOW WAS EVERYONE'S WEEKEEEEND?? I HAVEN'T SEEN YOU ALL IN TWO DAYS, OBVIOUSLY YOU MISSED MEEEE!

Sometimes, I need to remember to post more.

Alright, just as a btw, I'm going to go back to writing/trying to do my homework/studying after this, so I might be a little slow on the replying. (unlike my normal lightning-fast self (not really.))

I don't even know what I'm going to be talking about right now. I have a few new cosplays coming up (namely Taiwan, DeviantArt-chan, and Gaz) that I'm going to be working on, and for the first time, they're all women! I'm going to actually USE my boobs instead of binding them!

Anyway, in that vein...

Two summers ago, right before I started college (and before I even started posting on here), I had this really strange eating disorder. It just started that summer, and I haven't experienced anything like it since. We think it might have been stress-related, but no one knows. I went to see a doctor about it, and even he had no clue. Point being, I went from 150lbs to under 120 in two months, which is extraordinarily unhealthy, due to the speed of said weight loss.

So, pictures of me from that time have me being really thin compared to now.

Now, over the course of the last year and a half, I gained 50 lbs, because my stomach doesn't understand what hunger is and how to stop it anymore. So I have to loose weight again. That doesn't bother me. I'm just having slight self-image issues.

Workouts make my muscles hurt in a good way. *purrs*

I have no idea what the point of that was.

Anyway, back to work!!

*studystudystudy*

So, here's a picture that I took today. I reeeaaaallly love it for some reason, so here's to posting it on here!

A larger view can be found on my DevArt, here.

There are more from that photoshoot there (person shown in the picture below is my roommate Tyna!)

Augh, just got back from NDK. Head is attempting to explode. Cosplay pics up on my DevArt, for those interested (was Izzy Izumi (Koushirou) from Digimon and Twilight Town Demyx (sans the guitar) on Friday and Saturday, respectively).

On the drive home, I got a few ideas for things that'll happen in TTB (which is good, because I need more material to put in places), but I haven't gotten to work on anything yet, with college and settling into everything again.

Cheers to you all. May your heads hurt less than mine.

Also, thought up a title to a fic that is only a sort-of idea right now. It'll be after P'R'U, TTB, and DiYH if it happens. TimeTraveler!Sora, anyone?

This will be updated as I go, because I'll be finding more and more pictures of mine as I go, but here are some!

Twilight Town Demyx:


(yes, that is a real guitar that prettypixiechan and I painted (she did most of the work). I can string it and play on it, and I'm totally learning a few songs just so I can do that! And please ignore me and my dark hair that is showing. It's almost impossible for me to get all of it hidden.)

Matt:
None

Bakura Ryou:
None

(If the picture doesn't show up, tell me! I can't see any of them on this computer anyway...)<input ... ><input ... ><input ... ></input><input ... >

Well, it's true, I am.

So, besides that, I just wanted to say... that I'm going to San Japan in July, if anyone's interested? In meeting? I dunno. I kinda just want to ramble about my cosplays for a tiny bit.

( Cosplaaaaaaaaays for San Japan 3! )

Oh, and it's just gonna be a ton of fun. I'm looking forward to it so much. (and if you'd like to see the cosplays as they are right now, check out my DevArt page here or Pixie's DevArt page here, click on Gallery, and then there should be Cosplay section on both of ours!
