Well, considering that the con is THIS FUCKING FRIDAY, I've been panicking trying to find a makeup scheme for Yukari.

This is what I came up with, coming from my cosmetics bag (or rather, little section in my very big purse) and a few stick-on jewel things I picked up at the craft store last week.



This photo is very awkward to me, considering that I have extremely short, bleached-blonde hair at the moment.

I like the way it looks, but I'm asking you all, is it YUKARI enough? I would really appreciate input, please. .

So these last few days have not been fun.

Allow me to elaborate.

Yesterday, the motherfudgeing lights got shut off, due to a minor blunder of my father's. No electricity, no AC, no lights, no nothing.

I figured, whatever, I'll just light a candle and read Order of the Phoenix again.

Happily ensconced in the world of Harry Potter, I at first fail to notice the brushing sensations against my left cheek, and my hand. It isn't until I actually see the DADDY LONGLEGS scampering across the pages of my book that I realize there's another spider on my hand, and yup, you guessed it, on my FACE. Except it had progressed to my mouth.

Apparently, my house is so old that an unknown number of creepy crawlies reside in its walls, and choose to emerge only when the structure is submerged in complete darkness, when the only light emitted is that of a candle, while a seventeen-year-old girl is trying to read -_-

Naturally, I panic. I screech, fling the things off of me, and actually rip off half my clothes in the search for more long-leggedy beasties. Once assured that I am free of harm, I charge out of the living room, into the shed where my father and Lenny are (the good news is, mum's in New York for the weekend) and sob, HYSTERICALLY, that I can't do this. I babble that I'm leaving for the night, and take off.

I figured I'd go to Will's. So, I walked ACROSS TOWN to where he lives, dismayed to find out that his house is dark and there aren't any cars in the driveway. At this point, I'm like "FUDGE IT!" so I decide to go to Jen's place, because she lives right by, and there isn't anyone on her porch for once. So, I go to the lake. I sit in the grass, and cry some more. After awhile, I calm myself, (because the lake looks like the Inferi lake)but then I hear motherfudgeing GROWLING from the bushes, so I run like a ho.

After ten minutes of debate, I knock on Jen's door. Her parents let me in without question (they were actually REALLY cool about it) but Jen, Paul, Joe, and Sarah were all passed out in her room and just kind of blinked at me when I arrived.

At this point, I'm cold, frustrated, and exhausted, so I just plop down on her floor and watch the news for awhile until more people showed up. (thank god) We all hung out for awhile, went to T-spa when Jen's parents booted us, and Moussa drove me home. He was really nice to me. ^_^ (even though I was sort of drunk. Lol.)

Today, I exhausted my bank account to buy cell phone minutes, and after that came home and read in the dark for a very long while. When my father got home, the electricity got turned back on, and we both sort of did the happy dance and bought BK for dinner. YAAAAAAAY.

And I'm going with Kristin to the cape house, apparently. Double yay, even though I REALLY ought not to be drinking anymore for awhile ^_^

So I'm sitting here listening to Olivia (the artist who does the vocals for Reira in the Nana movie) and I'm just utterly blown away by how amazing she is.

The music sounds just like how I imagined Trapnest to sound like. The second I heard the intro for Wish,I fell in love with it.

I hope they made Blast sound just as good. Gah!

I'm excited about cosplaying Reira now. Gonna be a rock star, yeah! I might even sing one of the songs at the con...hell, I'm not AWFUL at singing, I just need to take some voice lessons to be masquerade worthy. Plus I'll fanservice like mad.

Ooooh. This is gonna be good.

Guys.

Last night we went to White Castle.

We left around 8 at night. Much silliness and singing of "Pool Party" ensued. Much debating about "Neverending Story" occurred.

We laughed.

We cried.

We cursed Connecticut because it's purgatory amoung states.

We made Metal Gear Solid references while crossing the George Washington bridge.

Oh yes, and blared Romeo+Juliet music while driving through New York.

Will kept a tally of how many times we almost died. It got up to eleven I think xD

I videotaped us going through New Jersey on Jane's video camera. I didn't think White Castle would be in the heart of the ghetto...oh well xD It was really funny.

I kept the fry box as a souvenier. On the way home I tried to fall asleep on Lisa's suitcase but failed miserably. Lisa got pancakes at McDonald's at 4 in the morning and she slapped me with syrup hands. After awhile Jane got tired so Will drove the rest of the way home....and by 7 in the morning, when we FINALLY got back to Stoughton we were all so, SO gone...

By "gone" I mean Jane was sitting there flipping through her PSP and just...giggling. For absolutely NO reason. Crazy people giggling. And Lisa and I were just like "Jane. There might be some LOVE stains back here, man, I dunno..."

It felt like the morning after that huge party in Dazed and Confused.

Jane dropped me and Lisa off and we slept for six hours straight. Now...I'm just kinda wobbling around xD

Oh man. That was seriously the GREATEST night of my life.

Peace, dudes xD

Okay.

So like...the HP7 primiere is coming up soon, and I'm going to this costume ball type thing for the book release.

 Thing is, while I have a wealthy knowledge of the Potterverse and characters therein, I have no idea-NO idea-who I ought to dress up as. My friend is doing Tonks. My other friend is doing Bellatrix. This automatically eliminates two of my favourite characters, and well, I don't think I have a lot of options as to who else I *look* like. I don't want to be a random Hufflepuff, either. x_x

 this is a (fairly) recent picture of me:

 

 Now.

 Who should I dress up as?

 

@_@

 

So the photoshoot we did yesterday was EASILY the best we've ever done.

My name was Diane. I was a 22-year-old prostitute, and I was raped, choked to death, and dumped in the middle of the f***ing woods.

Lisa did phenomenal makeup. I didn't think she'd be able to do it with just acrylic paint, but she did. She bruised up my face, chest, and thighs, and splattered blood all over my shirt. I had this nasty gash on my throat and blood dripping from my nose...it looked legitimately like someone had beaten the hell out of me.

My outfit was skankalicious. We destroyed a pair of my jeans and made them into a mini-mini-MINI skirt (like, shows off my scar, butt, and vadge kind of mini) , and tied a white button-up shirt above my stomach. Of course I was wearing a black bra, black garter belt (which showed under the skirt) black knickers, and four-inch, black and white polka dot STRIPPER heels, too, so yaaaay whore xD

Unfortunately, to get to the woods where we were going to do the shoot, I had to maneuver in high heels around raspberry bushes and climb down a very steep hill. And...some guys saw us .< >Dude: *seeing me covered in blood* Hey! Yo! You guys filming something?

Me: *struggling to avoid the thorns* Uhh. No. Photoshoot.
Dude: What are you, a dead stripper?

Me: Stripper, prostitute, white trash...whatever.

Dude: Aight. Well, if you wanna see white trash, just look in the apartment complex. Peace out, ladies!

Me: *ROFL, nearly falls off the hill*
Once we were in the woods, we found this rusty-arse handsaw which we decided was going to be my murder weapon. So, we lugged that about and took some pret-ty sweet pictures xD
When we got them developed the guy at Brook's was like "Well. She looks more ALIVE now..."
I'll be scanning the photos and putting them up tonight. I've gotten MUCH better at looking like a proper corpse, so expect greatness. xD (oh and lots of knicker shots

So last night Mike asked me to go to the fireworks with him. I hate fireworks (they're loud and hurt my eyes) but I nonetheless agreed to go, and it was so wonderful.

Some quotes of the evening:

Family friend of his: So why don't you two take a blanket, find a patch of grass, and think clean thoughts together?

Mike: What are you, Catholic?

This was especially funny considering that Mike and his WHOLE FAMILY are Wiccan. xD

*as the two of us are waiting for the show to start, the band is playing patriotic music*

Me: Hey. How come they're playing patriotic stuff?

Mike: Think hard, sweetie. Why do you think they're even HAVING fireworks?

And we found this awesome spot against the middle school to watch from, but then the cops made us move, so we had to leave right in the middle of the display. So we wandered a bit and finally found this quasi-secluded area by the woods. The view was perfect and I dozed. Yes...while watching fireworks. Oh yeah. xD

Like halfway through the show I woke up and we started having a conversation about how cool it would be if they could get the fireworks to look like the dark mark. And right then, I had a revelation. Charlie and Isadora would sit around and watch fireworks together. I'm Isadora! And I found my Charlie.

I was sooo happy.

He kissed me once, towards the end, and it was perfect. It was the Moulin Rouge! kiss I've been waiting for. ^_^

Afterwards I left to meet up with Will, Brian, and Steve, and the four of us walked to Will's place--horrible traffic and fireworks still going off and all. We ended up going through the most Silent Hill part of Stoughton, and I was still kind of floating, so I was pixie prancing around, hardly noticing the atmosphere xD

We got to Will's and I watched Brian and Steve play DoA for a bit, then Will showed me all his Castlevania remixes, and that was totally awesome ^.^

Later on Mike texted me with poetry-(yes, POETRY) and I was just like "AHH! You won my heart!! Have a cookie!"

And then I came home, declined watching the twilight zone marathon, and went to bed. xD

 

 

Ahh! I had so much fun today!

My brother took me and the dog to Borderland. It was so cool! I hadn't been there since I was maybe eleven or twelve, and like...it was a whole different experience. Everything was so, so pretty and the weather was perfect ^.^ I love the woods.

Chloe was a total attention whore ALL DAY. It was hilarious. She'd bark at us if we stopped paying attention to her for even a second, and like, when we took the leash off she'd dash around the fields and run up to people she didn't know. No one minded though, they all thought it was rather funny xD

The only bad thing was the fact that I only had my phone to take pictures with, but I still got some pretty good shots. I got some of the lake, this abandoned farmhouse type thing with a fireplace inside, the manor, the fountain, the sundial, the old swimming pool...there was just so much beauty to take in it was unbelievable.

I've decided that I want my next cosplay photoshoot to be there. Especially if I do Richter or Yuko. The place screams "Antiquated Elegance"

Hee.

 I know, I know it's not real.

But it still REALLY bothered me. o.o
