Yay, exams are finished!
Off to gencon without a new cosplay ^^", dunno if I want to pull out Train again...
Ran over our 12gb net usage first time ever, might've let in some virus at the same time T_T. Now i'm uncapped, can be back to useless trolling again =).
Actually been drawing, then spending 5 times the amount of time trying to colour it in photoshop.
I want a tablet. They're expensive...

Manga plan up 30% after discussing it for the first time with a friend of mine, guess I just have to plan how each chapter goes now. My four main characters are all designed, but I only have a cool costume for one of them. I could pop them into school uniform, but i want a nice design either way.
May hold competition for costume design later, I dunno how many people read journals (especially mine XD). Keep posted, i'll be posting art up in the next few days.

Uni exams around the corner!
Again, i should be studying quite crazily, but with the 'study week before exam' mode from last year in my brain, its probably going to happen again ^^".

Lets see, on the day of brisbane's 'animania,' i instead attended the first ever ';PPM' (poor people's mania). Free event, not too crowded, friendly atmosphere, and free food =D. Twas a fun day, met some cool people, played twister for the first time (i know..."you've never played it before???), and went gallavanting for some string for the donut game, but by the time we returned, the group began to disband...=.="

Cosplayed that day as Train Heartnet again from Black Cat with freaky-lookin eye contacts and all. But my costume started to fall apart XD, and i forgot to take any photos... Still looking for someone who took my photo and can share it with me =)

Learnt the Hare Hare Yukai dance, still gotta use it somewhere ^^". Made anime/manga club meeting at uni, hopefully that'll get up and running awesomely by next term. And just about learnt all the haruhi piano pieces i can play!

Now making a duo cosplay with an awesome friend i met at PPM for the upcoming gencon/PPM. Hope we can get it done in time, might be a week-before-the-convention job at this rate with exams and stuff ^^"

Wow, what a month its been so far!
Went to my first concert - Maroon 5 at the start of this month. What a great experience! I definitely want to go to more concerts when they come around :)

That same weekend was Brisbane Supanova! :D
Did my second cosplay as L from Death Note, did a skit, won the cosplay chess, made heaps of friends! Had so much fun that weekend. Death Note got ';popularised' this year, so the place was swarming with death note cosplayers 'ish' and 'brilliant' alike.

Completed some of my first uni exams, I think they went ok ^^".
Still trying to get marks back.

Right now i'm practicing some piano pieces, primarily trying to get down pat 'Hare Hare Yukai' from Melancholy of H.S. Soooo hard, but its sounding great! Also trying to fix up my Train Heartnet cosplay from last year for the Animania 'boycott' next month. I just hope I can get it done in time with study, exams, work and social events floating around.

Still haven't had time to submit any new drawings yet! XD

1000 views!

It's taken waaaaaaay longer then a year to get 1000 pageviews XD.
Ah well, I somehow made it, woo!

First day of uni today, quite different from school. Plenty of clubs and stuff I think i'll consider joining, already quite fun :) . Textbooks and stuff are leeching huge amounts of funds from my bank account. Mum and Dad offered to pay for some, but I think I wanna pay for most of uni myself if i can :).

Getting to drawing and colouring, hope i'll have enough time to actually continue doing so O_O! I guess that's the easiest way to get pageviews (without getting an ad/subscription/browsing DA randomly for people to watch me XD).
