Uh, so after I said I was gonna keep a regular blog, I didn't post for 3 months. HA.

So, the other day I tried on the mock-up for my Rei plugsuit costume.

And then had a heart attack because I am so fat. FFFFFFFFFF LOVE HANDLES. So, since I can't go out in public like that, I am going on a strict diet of cucumber, tomato and tuna, as well as running every night on the elliptical, and weight training twice a week. Hopefully I will be able to lose 2-3lbs per week for the next five weeks, so that by the time Sakura con hits the fat around my middle will have turned to muscle, and I will be back to the smokin' hot bod I had when I was 16. Will also be taking progress pictures for some possible thinspiration.

So, on that note, I did my first weight training yesterday, and OH GOD my stomach muscles hurt. I've also been starving ALL DAY. I had a bowl of granola and a sliced bananna for breakfast, and an hour later I was ravenous. So I had some cucumber and tomato slices (without Ranch *sob) and was STILL ravenous. So I just drank lots of water until lunch time, and had some left over pasta and it was DELICIOUS. I felt like a starving person seeing their first food in a week. When I got home I was starving again, so I had some left over sushi (3 rolls, and some tuna, salmon and snapper sashimi)

tdlr; despite the fact that I've been eating every hour or so, I'm still RAVENOUS AND WANT CARBS TO FILL ME UP BUT CAN'T EAT THEM BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT'S MAKING ME FAT.

Sigh.

So, I woke up this morning, and it was a fucking blizzard outside. It snowed 3 inches by 10am. And then by 2pm it was bright and sunny outside, and all the snow had melted. FFFFFFFFFF I hate snow.

Anyway, uh....yeah. Maybe I'll post more. Maybe I'll post progress on my costume, or something.......anyway, I'ma go to the fruit and veggie store. I need more snackies.

So, Sunday was Hot Pot day. We were supposed to have 6 people all together, but 2 didn't show up. Which was probably just as well, since we ended up eating most of the food anyway.

But, regardless....HUGE SUCCESS! It was very delicious! After that we went out and bought Uno, played some Rockband, and then played said bought Uno.

On Monday, Koko, Lance and I went ice skating! It's been free ice skating all week, as the Olympic Oval just opened, and I guess they're celebrating, or something. It was super fun! I need to get the pictures from Lance! Unfortunately, while I was skating, the skates rubbed against my leg, and for the next two days it was raw and swollen. :( But aside from that, fun fun fun!

I've been watching TONS of anime recently. I just finished Ouran last week, and it was fantastic.

Following that, I downloaded Lovely Complex, and finished that a couple of days ago as well. That was also epic, and I wish I was taller, and had a short boyfriend, so that I could cosplay it. So awesome. ;_;

I've since downloaded Honey and Clover, which I've heard is also epic. I'll start watching that eventually.

Lance came over yesterday (didn't want to drive back to Abbotsford 'cause of the snow) and I started him on Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. We watched the first 8 episodes last night (Kamina ;_;) and then watched up to episode 17 tonight. I copied the rest to his flash drive, so that he can watch them at his place this weekend.
Fuck. It is the best anime on the planet. So epic. ;____; I think I am going to make Koko a Simon costume, and me a Nia costume. Maybe. EPIC. T___T

Anyway, it snowed the day before yesterday, and we got about 5 inches of snow; nothing too exciting.

Tomorrow is Friday, and also payday! HURRAH! I will be going out to Abbotsford this weekend to visit my Mom. Dad is in Cuba until Dec. 29.

I found out from /cgl/ a while ago that there's a monthly cosplay meetup in Seattle that I might think about going to. That would be fun, and I'd get to meet some more people. On the bright side, Koko said that he'll wear whatever costumes I make him.....while it's too bad that he generally doesn't share the same enthusiasm for the series I watch (he likes MANRY anime with ninjas and swords, and I like....romantic comedies, and HAPPY FEEL GOOD series) it makes me happy that we can do cute couple cosplays anyway! I for SURE want to do a Fai/Kurogane couple one day. <3 <3 <3 Also, Simon/Nia would also be cute. And lost of others, I'm sure.

Anyway, THAT IS ALL! UNTIL NEXT TIME, STAY SAFE!

Yesterday, Koko and I went out shopping. We went to Grandville Island, and picked up the synthrapol (which is a very strong soap that you use when dying fabrics) and the FW ink for my Rei wig.

We spent the rest of the day shopping, because we're having some people over and making Hot Pot for them!

After Grandville Island, we went to XS-Cargo (a discount store) and bought a burner for the pots tonight, so that we can eat in the living room. I also bought a little hand held steamer, so that when I start doing more detailed styling for wigs, I have one.

We then went to Metrotown, and did shopping for the Hot Pot. We went to T&T (the local asian store) for some ready-prepared meats and stuff, and then we went to Superstore and I bought some stuff for desert. Finally, we went to the fruit and veggie store, and bought some veggies.

And, of course.....we had to spend the rest of the night cleaning. @___@ We've been putting off cleaning for the past couple of weeks....and the apartment has turned into a mess. Eesh!

I've finally been doing some designing and pattern drafting at work. While I am very happy that this is finally occurring, I've been getting a bit frustrated because my pattern drafting is out of practice. Every time I manage to get something productive done......I realize that there's a critical step that I should've done before, and I end up having to take it apart, and then re-do what I already did. Very much a one step forward, two steps back situation.

But, regardless, I've still been enjoying the designing. Looking for inspiration has left me with a strong desire to design and sew some beautiful silk nightwear. (Not that there's really anything stopping me. We have the fabric at work.)

I've been posting on 4chan a lot, lately. Mainly lurking on /cgl/. Cosplay has been devouring my mind lately, it's what I think about almost non-stop. While you do find some really good information in /cgl/, it's not long before you discover that it's all recycled over and over again. I've been there for a cycle or two, and I'm pretty sure I've seen it all.
That being said, I've managed to take down some names of some of the more popular cosplayers, which in turn is dramatically raising my standards for my costumes.
I guess that's a good thing. Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure I'm always gonna hate every costume I make, because it will never be perfect. Bleh.

I've also started watching anime again. About two months ago I watched Death Note. While the first half of the series was pretty good, the second half of the series seemed to be very...well, lame.
Shortly after that I started watching Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. That was a fantastic series. Since watching it, I've been looking off and on for a new series to become enthralled with.
I tried watching Lucky Star, but it didn't really captivate me. I tried Code Geass, but that bored me after a couple of episodes as well....I'm sure there were some others, but meh. A couple of days ago I finally downloaded Ouran High School Host club.....Oh my GOD. That series made me feel like a 14 year old fangirl again. Last night I was so completely obsessed with it, that I tried to go to sleep...And couldn't, because I still had 4 episodes left that I couldn't get my mind off of. I finally got back up and finished watching it.
Ouran gets a perfect 10/10, A+++. It's absolutely hilarious.

Aidan and I have slowly been planning our cosplay for Sakura con. We're going to be going as Rei and Shinji in their plugsuits from Evangelion. I've been looking around for ways to dye Aidan's PVC blue, as I've only been able to find blue 2-way stretch PVC, and unfortunately, this project needs 4 way stretch. I bought some disperse dye (fabric dye for dying synthetic fibers, and plastics) online (the dye cost $7....and the shipping cost $18.50 ;_;), and am going out tomorrow to buy some Synthrapol, so that I can do some test swatches.

I also got my wig for the costume, and I'll be picking up some ink tomorrow as well, to dye the wig.

My grandma died on Nov. 20th, which was 4 days before my dad was supposed to go to Cuba. That was a stressful week for us.....The funeral was exactly a week later. It was a really nice service.....
I wasn't really sure what to make of Grandma's death..........I never got to see her very often growing up, and since she moved out to Chilliwack, whenever I did see her....she usually had a really hard time understanding who I was. I feel a little bit guilty for not going to visit her as often as I should've during her last year, out in Chilliwack...

Dad managed to get his flight to Cuba changed (despite the fact that he didn't have travel insurance, and almost had do spend another $800 on a new flight to Cuba....eesh) and left on Monday. He was very excited; he's been planning this trip for the past four years.
Because he had to delay his trip (it would've only been a week later, but that flight was full, so he had to delay it for two weeks) he's not going to be home for Christmas. I gave him a new camera for his trip as an early Christmas present.

All in all, life has honestly been pretty uneventful. I haven't played WoW in a couple of weeks......I keep getting ganked when I try and level, and every time I get ganked, I stop playing, because they always end up camping my body, or they come back and kill me five minutes later.

Soo...That's been my life in a nutshell lately. Maybe I'll try and keep a regular blog again....

OH BOY has it been a long time since I've posted; I don't know where to begin.

I've started working at a company called St. Geneve. When I first got hired, they said that I was going to be the two bosses (Michael (the owner) and Jo-Anne (the designer)) assistant, and would be doing some designing of nightwear on the side.

When I first started, I was a bit iffy on whether or not I was going to enjoy it. I had just gotten out of working for the costume shop, and during my time there I had fully decided that I was going to stay there, and get experience, and start working on movie sets....And then they went bankrupt after I decided this, and closed the business.
This left me with a bit of a dilemma, as I had just decided my course of action for the rest of my career, and had no idea what I was going to do next. It had been a stroke of luck getting that job, and I didn't know where to continue looking.

So, I started looking on Craigslist for a new job, and applied to a bunch more places, including St. Geneve. Michael e-mailed me back that evening to set up an interview, and I went in the next day (on Friday). The following Monday, I went in again for an interivew with Jo-Anne, and then they called me up within the next day and said they wanted to hire me, and were gonna pay me 12$ an hour. Being spineless, I said ok, but wasn't very happy about it, as I would've really liked $14/hour.

Koko suggested I call them back in a couple of days, and tell them I had another job offer, and ask them if they'd raise their offer to 14$/hour.....so I did, and they did as well, which makes me very happy indeed. =3

During my first week or so there, I was still trying to decide if I liked it there, since it was an interior design setting, not fashion. I think part of my iffyness of staying there was the fact that I didn't really know what I was doing yet. They said they hired me to replace someone else, but didn't tell me who. However, within the next couple of weeks, I found out that I was going to be doing their purchasing.

I think, once I discovered that my position actually had a title, I felt a lot better about it. I also enjoy doing the purchasing; I get to deal with all the sources for anything we buy (fabric, notions, packaging, etc, etc, etc)

Annnd...I'm sick of typing now, so I'll finish this up later.

Errr, quick update:

Got a job at the costume shop, and have effectively lost said job because the costume shop is closing. Uh, looking for more work. Will notify when this occurs. Cosplaying Chell for AE, and then again for Video Games Live.

That's about it.

Grumble grumble grumble.

Claims that I always "turn him down" despite the fact that my response is generally "if you want." And for some reason this seems to bother him, because he "wouldn't ask if he didn't want to." But that was the response he consistently gave me (when he masturbated every day) when I wanted to have sex every night, on my old birth control.

So, when he couldn't masturbate every day, and wanted to have sex every night, he claims he got sick of asking me when he knew I was going to turn him down. Despite the fact that I NEVER turn him down; usually my response is "if you want," as stated earlier.

But whenever he masturbates he never wants to have sex.

Feh.

So, yesterday I had a job interview at a costume shop. I thought it went bad, because they asked me to construct a fly zipper on a pair of jeans on the spot. And I am definitely out of practice making flys. On top of that, I almost broke their pressure foot (they weren't watching at the time, thank god), and THEN I ripped the zipper pull off the zipper (They had me take apart the fly zipper, and then put it back together. In lower end construction a lot of places will shorten zippers but chopping the tops of them off, which means when you take the zipper out, there's no zipper stopper, meaning you can pull the zipper tab right off). The big boss lady came in and could tell I was freaking out, and was like "It's ok, calm down" and I was like "uhm....I need a new zipper" and she got me a new zipper and started joking about poor quality construction. And after that I was still a little bit stressed, and kept sewing the zipper to the back of the waistband (normally, when you sew in fly zippers it's the first thing you do, but since I was putting it in an already constructed pair of pants, I kept accidentally stitching it to the back of the pants.) I also broke a needle, at some point.

Anyway, after I took FOREVER to assemble it (it turned out alright in the end; not great, but not awful either) the woman asked me to come back ASAP with some more samples of my work, and my portfolio. So I went back this morning, and she seemed relatively impressed, and said that they were "80% sure they wanted to hire me" Anyway, I got back home, and I turned my phone back on about 20 minutes after that, and had a message from the Big Boss saying they wanted to hire me, start tomorrow, and that she thinks my "enthusiasm is great". (I didn't think I was THAT enthusiastic, but maybe she thought my cover letter was really enthusiastic? I'unno.)

Anyway, I called her back and told her that I could give her a for sure answer by Monday, but couldn't answer right away because I had two more job interviews this week. She said that'd be fine, but the deal was she wanted to start training someone ASAP. I told her that if she didn't mind expending the resources, I could start training on Thursday anyway, and give her a solid answer on Monday, and she agreed to that.

I've got one more interview tomorrow, (I'm not hugely interested in the job though, it's just an entry level Customer service shipping/receiving position at a clothing manufacturer) but the costume job doesn't pay very well ($10/hr to start for the first two weeks (probation period) and after that they re-assess) soooooo....I'unno. But yeah, I have a job at a costume place that mostly provides for TV and Film, which is pretty sweet, overall.

It was supposed to be a temporary job, but they gave the impression that it might lead to permanent employment, which is also cool.

[ mood | aggravated ]

Koko and I moved out to Burnaby on Sunady, about five days ago. What originally looked like it was going to be an exciting move to an awesome location has taken a turn for the worst.

Originally when we came to look at the apartment, we were stoked. It's right next to Metrotown (the largest mall in the Vancouver area) and the Metrotown Skytrain station, which is a very awesome location. It's about a 15 minute skytrain ride to downtown Vancouver, and walking distance to everything we might need. Upon inspection, the apartment seemed fine. It was a bit untidy, but we just assumed that was because they were moving soon. We didn't want to stay in the apartment too long because our viewing was really short notice, and we didn't want to inconvenience them. The only flaw we noticed at the time was the wood floors seemed a little beat up, but nothing to be concerned about.

So, we were pretty excited for the next two weeks coming up about moving there.

When we got there on Sunday....well, the place was a mess. The previous tenants had just taken their last load about ten minutes before we got there, and were on their way back to start cleaning up. When we got up to the apartment there was garbage everywhere, and as we were moving things in, it was slowly becoming apparent that the people previously living there were slobs. They came back and tidied up the garbage, but that was about it. Everything in the entire apartment needed a really big scrubbing down. The floor beside the stove was coated with grease, and dust, and more grease. The light fixture in the dining room was as bad as the floor. Mopping the kitchen floor did absolutely nothing. I had to go buy a special brush to hand scrub the entire floor.
I went into a rage as soon as I saw the stove; it was absolutely disgusting, and honestly, you should be thankful that I don't have pictures of it. The dishes beneath the burners were full of old food, coated in grease. Two of burners have been rendered completely useless due to the fact that they were covered in grease so thick it's impossible to wash it off.

Aidan came to the rescue and cleaned the stove for me; I wasn't even going to touch it. Aidan's been super awesome the past couple of days and has been coming over and helping me clean the disaster that is this apartment. We've managed to get the kitchen cleaned, half the bathroom, and on the first night there I sanitized the bedroom.

Koko and I kinda finally admitted to each other today that maybe we're not as fond of this apartment as we once were.

The best (READ: irritating) part of this situation is that we haven't been able to get a hold of the apartment manager to pay our rent, let alone complain about the entire apartment disaster area. We've tried knocking on his door every day since we've moved in and he hasn't been home, and I've tried calling him to arrange a time to meet, but he hasn't answered, or returned my phone calls.

Wow, it's been a while.

Well, I'm still alive. Lots has happened. I got laid off, and within a week I went to Sakura con with Aidan, Reki, Steve, Ray, Ashley, and two girls I'd never met before called Danielle, and Emily. Had a pretty sweet weekend.

I got my final line together for school (www.emsquaredonline.com) and I graduated. My newt drowned, and then came back to life, and in the meantime I went to New York, and saw some amazing things. I love New York, and would move there in a second, if it was an option. I got to see Allan while I was there, which was also pretty sweet.

Koko got a new job, and we're going to be moving to Vancouver (or at least the area) within a month or so. In the mean time, I'm looking for a new job.

I got to see Steve the other day, which as awesome; I haven't seen him in ages. We hung out for a couple of hours, and played some rockband.

Koko bought me WoW, and I've started playing. We'll see how that goes.

That's been my life in a nutshell for the past two months. I might update in more detail at a later date.

I got temporarily laid off from my job on Wednesday.

Was really pissed with them, because they were the ones that asked me to quit my other job in September, and give them priority.

I don't plan on going back.

So, just to keep people updated on the situation, I called home on Sunday to talk to mom for a couple of minutes, and dad asked to speak to me. He apologized for being offensive, and said that he understood I wasn't trying to shut him out, that I was just trying to avoid confrontation, and that we needed to discuss alternative methods for me letting him know that he's being offensive, so that this doesn't happen again.

So, all in all, happy ending.

Sakura con looks like it's all organized. I had 3 people cancel on me a couple of days ago, but the spaces got filled again pretty quick.

Jeez. Three years ago I had a hard time finding enough people to fill ONE room for Sakura con. Now I know so many geeks that they practically break down my door to fit into two rooms. <_<;; So wierd. Anyhoo, bed time!

I am so angry right now. I want to break things. I want to smash things. I want to punch holes in the wall.

I went home tonight, and ended up leaving after having a screaming match with my father. He's fucking insane. We'd finished dinner a short while before. The topic of eco-friendly crap came up, and I said that I would eventually want to buy a hydrogen powered car, once they're more popular. My father starts going into one of his long "I'm right and the rest of the world is wrong" tirades, and since I don't like arguing, particularly with my father, I told him that I was ending the conversation. The is the only way I've learned to deal with my father, when he starts arguing, otherwise we just end up screaming at each other, and then eventually the both of us end up crying. He proceeded to get hurt feelings, and sulked for the next ten minutes. My mother and I continued talking for a little while, and then my mom went downstairs.

I was getting some stuff together for school, and my dad tells me that "I never treat you disrespectfully, and you have no right talking to me like that."

I try to calmly explain to him why I ended the conversation, and apologize that he misinterpreted it as my being disrespectful. He proceeds to tell me that if I plan on talking to him like that again, that I shouldn't bother coming around anymore.

I once again apologized that he thought it was disrespectful, and then went to the bathroom, locked the door, and proceeded to cry for a little while, while I continued getting my craft together for school.

He's practially YELLING at me about fucking eco-friendly cars, I tell him I don't want to talk about it, and I'M being disrespectful? I shouldn't come to my fucking house to see my parents if I'm not going to take your fucking abuse? Fuck you, you self-centred asshole. Fuck. You. And then you try and put the owness on me, saying that I'm being disrespectful, because I say "I don't want to talk about this anymore" because every time we fucking argue, you get your god damned feelings hurt, and start crying over NOTHING!?

After maybe five or ten minutes of calling him a fucking asshole to myself, and crying, I gathered up my craft and went downstairs to my room, where my mother was watching a movie.

I lost it, and went off calling him every fucking name I could think of. I was SO ANGRY, and I couldn't stop shaking. My mother went and tore a strip off him, which I didn't want her to do. She came back down and explained that he's been fucking nuts lately, and that she NEEDED a reason to yell at him, and she apologized that I had to be the reason.

At this point I was wondering if maybe I had been acting like an asshole, and I asked mom if I was out of line saying I wanted to end the conversation, and she said I wasn't, and that he was going off on one of his tirades again.

Dad came down a little while later, and said to mom that he's "sorry she thinks he's being disrespectful" and some bullshit about him putting his foot down, and that he needs to be able to live in the house the way he wants to, or something. And he wouldn't give mom a chance to talk at all; he just started walking away when she tried to. I was sitting on the other side of the room, and then he turned to me, and continued saying I was rude and disrespectful, and to not talk to him like that.

I didn't say anything, I just looked away, and tried not to cry. I wasn't going to respond to him, but he kept blabbing his fucking mouth, about rude this and disrespect that, and I finally screamed at him the reason I ended the fucking conversation was because I hate fighting, EXACTLY like we were doing right now, and that he always ends up fucking crying, and I always end up crying, and that I was trying to avoid it. And he kept fucking saying it, and saying I shouldn't come around anymore, and I screamed that was fucking fine with me, I don't fucking live here anymore anyway (Which isn't really true), and that he was an asshole, and a drunk, and I kept screaming at him all the way out of the house. As soon as I got outside, mom came after me, and refused to let me drive home in such an enraged state. She hugged me, and wouldn't let me go for about 10 minutes. And she said "Don't you dare stop coming here."

And I think I really needed her to say that, because I was seriously considering it.

I am just so angry at him right now. I haven't been this angry in YEARS. I want to destroy something. I was so angry earlier that I wanted to cut. I wanted to do ANYTHING that would let me vent this anger into something destructive.

Soo...I've been driving into Vancouver a ton lately, the past couple of months. Always always looking for Fabric.

At Dressew they had a bunch of chocolates left over from Valentine's day (When I say a bunch, I mean crates and crates of it) and they were selling 800g boxes of chocolates for $2. Sooo...I bought three boxes of them. :D (One of them was for mother. <_<) I bought the fabric for my line yesterday (HURRAH Pink and blue PVC!) and then me and Aidan went to the Green Living Show, which was pretty interesting. I also got my passport on Thursday, which is pretty exciting. I think that's all. I'm almost done school! And then it's on to New York. :D I'm so broke right now it's not even funny. :( And I just realized that I need to buy contacts for Sakura con, since I only have 1 daily pair left. FSCK. I don't have an extra 60$, and I can't put it on my credit card because as it is I don't have enough room on there for Sakura con. Urrrrrgh. Oh well. I'll figure something out.

Scenario 1: Emily and Koko start watching Lost many months ago. After an extended period of time, they finally get through the three seasons of it, and after a massive cliff hanger ending, and a writer's strike, they eagerly await the next season.

Scenario 2: Emily brings a pirated copy of what is expected to be a lame, girly kids movie (Read: Stardust) over to Koko's to eventually watch when she gets a break from school. Since Koko doesn't want to watch it, she doesn't put a rush on it. A couple of weeks later, Emily stays late at school. When she gets home, Koko mentions "Oh, btw, I watched Stardust today. It was really good!" Emily expresses how totally NOT impressed she is that he watched it without her, and makes it pretty darn clear that she's REALLY irritated.

Scenario 3: Emily just worked an 8 hour day for her practicum (Read: unpaid slave labour necessary to graduate) and proceeded to go to her REAL job for 2 hours and get paid a whole 20$. Woo hoo. Getting home at 7:30pm, and not having eaten since noon, Emily is not in the best of moods. Emily gets to Koko's, goes to his room, and finds him watching not the first, not the second, but the THIRD episode of the latest season of Lost.

Pissed because:

a) Kiiiiiinda irritated that he watched it without me.

b) Pissed that he never even MENTIONED it to me. Never said "Hey, I downloaded the first episode of Lost! Wanna watch it?" Just watched it without me. Might've been SLIGHTLY different circumstances had I said "No, I don't have time right now" and THEN he watched it. But no, he never even mentioned it when he knew, FULL WELL, that I wanted to watch it. And did that THREE TIMES.

c) Knew FULL WELL it would PISS ME THE FUCK OFF. Best part? DID IT ANYWAY. It was rude, and inconsiderate, and ANGER.

Haha.

Everyone always says that high school means nothing, and that you meet all your real friends in college.

I spend ALL my time with the same other 9 people every day, of every week, and I can only just tolerate most of them. Some of them I really like, but other's drive me insane, or are ridiculously rude. Despite the fact that they're (mostly, give or take a year) the same age as me, they make me feel like they should still be in high school.

It also irritates me that everyone is ALWAYS gossiping about everyone else behind their back. It drives me crazy. I don't care what anyone says, I just don't feel right about talking about other people behind their back. It's rude, inconsiderate, and considering the size of the class, it ALWAYS gets back to the original person.

Oh well.

Woo! Beat Highway Star on Rockband guitar on Expert. 8)

Four more songs left, and then I'll have to move on to a different instrument. :(

Rawr! I was up all last night (that's a lie, I got an hour of sleep) sewing my ski jacket for class. I didn't get it all done, and it was due today, but I decided to hand it in anyway. I did a really good job sewing what I had done, and I'm really proud of it so far. Had I tried to finish it this weekend and hand it in late, I would've rushed through it, and don't a crappy job. I want to be able to wear it once I finish it, and so far it looks fantastic. I am looking forward to completing it once I get it back.

Have to present the concept for our lines on Monday, and present our coats on Tuesday. Eesh. Off to do more homework.
