JDRF

Hello all--

I'm hosting a JDRF Diabetes Walk this year (next month, in fact). I would be eternally grateful to anyone who were to donate or join (or both)!!!!! If you can, register here. It's in Scera Park in Orem, Utah.

Click on "Register For Walk", then sign up; when it asks for a team name, click on Team Temari (oh yeah! Burnage!). We're happy to have anyone!!!

If you can donate, go here. Under "Donate to Walker", put Team Temari, in Utah. I'm listed under Isabelle Anderson, so donate there.

It'll be really great, and I hope you're all interested at least a little!

I WAS RIGHT!!!!!!!

HAH! I KNEW IT! I KNEW GIN WOULD TURN ON AIZEN! HAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(For those of you who have NO clue what I'm talking about, go read Bleach!)

Blahhhh

Nothing to say, really. The stupid cat came back (the little ingrate--first thing she did was try to take a chunk out of my nose, followed by her trying to take off some of my toes). She's a bit skinnier but much louder. No idea where she was, but she tried to tell us ALL ABOUT IT.

Right now I'm in the process or working on my Temari cosplay. I have the shirt (hand-me-down from my aunt that actually works perfectly) and I'm working on the wig right now. I just need to add wefts and I'm done. After that is the skirt and and the shoes. Then the armor, sash, and leggings. I need to order the hitai-ate (forehead protector).

Cat

My cat just went missing. If any of you are in the Provo, UT area, PLEASE look for her!!! She's a green-eyed brown tabby with white paws and stomach; she's not good with people (especially strangers) and is very skittish.

Parfaits

So, I tried making parfaits for the first time today. They turned out okay...I guess.

But on the upside, the mint and raspberries are homegrown (picked by yours truly today).

Cosplay!

Wow, it's been a while...so much for posting once a week.

So, school is out and I passed all my classes! Banzai!

Anyway, I'm getting back into martial arts now and I'm also going to be making some cosplay stuff; I'm really interested now and I'm starting with these:
This is the military uniform of Riza Hawkeye from Fullmetal Alchemist (鋼の錬金術師 Hagane no Renkenjitsushi). She's the only girl in the group; I absolutely love her!




Okay, this is Temari, from Naruto. This is her "second outfit", as it is commonly known.



This is Rukia Kuchiki! I actually had my hair cut like hers; this is her school uniform, but she usually wears her Soul Reaper one:


I like both of them, so I'm making both (I'm just weird like that, I guess).


This is Road Kamelot from D. Gray-Man. My best friend Emily wants to cosplay as Road, so I'll be making this one.

Well, that's really all that's going on. I'm off to movie night with my friend Tayla (bad day=LotR in her book).

Ja ne!

Monday

That's all that needs to be said to inspire fatigue and animosity.

Take this Monday, for instance:

2:15 AM: I wake up, and my arms are going numb. Being diabetic, I take this as a bad sign and test my blood. It's 33. Which, for those of you who don't know, is very, very, low and is pretty dang dangerous. So, with my arms numb and tingly, I go downstairs to scarf down a bagel and a bowl of Frosted Flakes. I go back to bed.

6:30 AM: First day back in school, oh joy. And, because life just had to have its fun, the heater and the water heater were both busted. So I wasn't even able to use my 'but my bed is warm' excuse to go back to sleep, even under 5 layers. I make the bus (for once).

9:05 AM: After just learning I had a massive Creative Writing assignment due, my physics teacher walks in and says 'testing time in 30 minutes'. I begin contemplating homicide, and possibly arson (not particularly in that order).

2:35 PM: I come home with the intent to sit down with a warm blanket, a mug of mint tea, and Mario Kart Wii, when I discover that a bunch of guys from the heating company had taken over the family room. No Wii. Oh well, I'll go for the tea. They'd turned off the gas (no gas=no stove= no kettle=NO TEA).

5:10 PM: They're still here. And I still don't have my tea.
