Phoenix Comicon

So tomorrow starts the preview day of one of my favorite events I've been to: Phoenix Comicon This year I did not plan on dressing up because I need to save my money for my friends birthday trip to California and for VidCon. At the last minute, though, I thought of a neat costume that people would know AND that I had all the things I needed for it. I'm going to be Mario! I have the red shirt because my shirts for work are red polos so I can just wear those, I have a pair of overalls because I'm going to take them from my dad, and I am hopefully borrowing my friends already made Mario hat. Plus, for his mustache, my hair is long enough to stretch across my face and create a mustache! I'm so excited for comicon because I thoroughly enjoy spending time with a bunch of nerds every year. I think my favorite part about Comicon is not all the panels I have to chose from or the fact that almost every person is dressed up, but the Vendor Hall. I love going to each and every table and talking to the individual people selling their drawings or buttons or whatever items they happen to be selling. I have met a lot of cool artists this way and even became sort of friends with an author! Each person at a table takes the time to talk to you, although most just want you to buy stuff, but some of the people actually just want to talk about nerdy things. Last year I got a bunch of free things from doing this so I definitely recommend it! Not only that but you meet other con-goers too because they're stopping by the tables and talking to the sellers as well. Is that a word? Sellers? Oh well... The basic thing is, I'm super freaking excited to go to Comicon! 8D

Long Time, No Update

Hello my  lovelies, I realize that it's been a few months shy of a year since I last updated and I'm not sure why that is. All I can assume for the last blog posted onto the sight is that school got busy and I forgot that I had a blog. I keep a link to my page up near my tabs so I'm not sure how I forgot that this existed, but it happened and it's over. If I remember, and I hope I do, I will continue to update this blog with posts about my life and what's going on. I have a few other blogs of varying degrees talking about other things such as college in and of itself, movies, and knitting. All of which I have not updated either. I think the website/profile thing I've updated most since February would be Twitter so I'd go ahead and follow me on that if you really want to keep track of me. I don't have much else to say except for the fact that it's nearing Christmas and I am beyond excited about that! Maybe I'll update on Christmas about what I got...

Junior Year Comes to a Close

As I said farewell to the seniors from my high school today, I realized that I only have one year left of the hell hole of high school. I love my friends and my classes are pretty cool, but the thing that makes it a hell hole are my parents and few classes and people that go to my school. I'm so glad that my year is closing. I only have three more days of class and two of them are half days. One of my earlier posts had something about where my cousin was killed by a police man, well his funeral is going to be sometime between Wednesday and Sunday and I'm nervous and sad. I'm also angry at my father because when he cry's he isn't a man about it. He starts to cry and he puts on his sun glasses and tries to act as if nothing is wrong. Well, dad, it's really weird to put your sunglasses on after you just took them off because you are definitely inside. So why don't you grow a pair and take them off because you just look like a pussy wearing them. Show your tears...

Life

Life is life is life, my friends. School is time consuming, looking for a job sucks, and getting horrible grades on tests that are for classes in your major is heart crushing. That being said, I still thoroughly enjoy the class. I realize that I need to study more and actually pay attention and care for what I'm doing in my classes. You learn a lot of life lessons in college and it is definitely a place where things come raining down on you. You have to be fast and able to deal with the shit that falls from the sky. It's hard, but if you try you can do it. I need to get my shit together, buckle down, and try as hard as I can to do what needs to be done. As of now, this includes studying for classes, paying attention in said classes, knit like my heart depends on it, search for jobs, apply for scholarships, and work out. It's so strange how it feels like things can pile up when, in reality, you can take a step back and a deep breath and realize that there are many small step...
