Hello people of the internet world! Taya is back and is feeling great! (Except for the 100 bug bites all over me...)
Now for updates about everything! This might be a long journal, but just stay with me.
School~
Well school has been out for awhile since like May 10th...I think. I don't remember lol. Anyway, school was the main reason why I wasn't able to get onto DA. It took up all of my time with projects and papers and homework and toward the end, exams...But High school is now over! I'm now a freshman all over again! Woot! At least I hope I will be saying "woot" when i get into college. I already have my college all picked out and I am excited to finally be out of my high school that caused me so much trouble these past four years.
Drawing~
As far as drawing goes, I have been actually drawing! Go me, right? So there should be some new stuff up I think today. If my camera decides to like me today and i can get good pictures of my...pictures.
I haven't painted anything in a while so no paintings, but some little drawings will be up.
Vacations~
Another reason why i haven't been on DA since summer started was because I have been to Florida, to Texas (A-kon), back to Florida, to the Bahamas, back to Florida, then finally back home. I just got back yesterday! So all my vacations are out of the way in the beginning of the summer. I might have some other small ones later, but they aren't planned yet. So I'm sorry in advance if I poof for a little again.
With vacations was A-KON~
A-kon 24 was great this year. For those of you who went and actually read my journals (lol) you saw my secret Pokemon cosplay as Sableye. I have to say that for my first time in a full suit it wasn't that bad. I wasn't too hot in the GIANT head, but then again the hotel was really cold, which again was awesome for me even when I wasn't in costume. I'm known as the human heater at home. HA. i think there have been some pictures posted on Facebook by
so check those out. I know a lot of other people took pictures because I was stopped like every ten steps lol. Sableye as well as Tao's secret cosplay will be coming back for A-kon 25 next year for sure, so you can be sure to see Sableye again there. And if anyone wants to ask how anything was made on the costume, just shoot me a message and I'll try to answer them the best i can. And if I can't ill ask Tao.
More on what happened at A-kon though...We were not finished with the costumes at all! we were sewing both until 10 min before the Pokemon photo shoot. That's when we just focused on Sableye to get her done. YES IT IS A SHE. Her name is Jelly because of her purple color reminded me of grape jelly lol. She is going to actually be worked on a little bit more before Tao and I's next convention. I am glad that people loved seeing Jelly walk around. Sorry that I couldn't walk around more but there will be WAY more time next year. I might even have more than one cosplay!
What else to talk about...Lets see...Well I can say that I enjoyed A-kon 24 very much, even though I was in the hotel room for most of the convention, but hey, you can only go into the dealers room so many times.
Thanks for reading the huge journal...if you actually did.
But that's it for now, unless I think of more.
PEACE~
