The Music of the Night

Fri, 17 Jul 2009 13:15:05 GMT

Gah, second Finland-muse-induced post in not long period of time.

This time, it's due to Su-san. Because Finland is laughing over this article. And how well it describes his... erm... life-partner? (My muse has decided to propose that compromise. XD)

Also: genderswap! Su-Fin is somehow one of the most adorable things ever.

On unrelated note: I'll be away for the weekend visiting my aunt's for the first time since she moved. So if I seem unusually quiet for a non-con-weekend (and no, I don't mean any sort of badtouch ToT) that's why.

Hetalia cosplays that I want to do sometime:

~Santa!Finland
~Canada
~Fem!England
~someone in school uniform (quite possibly Finland)

~Estonia (except I'm too short. XD)

There's a lot of others I'd easily agree to for a group situation too. *flails*

Why must there be series like this and Ouran with FAR TOO MUCH cosplay potential? ToT

FORGET NORWAY!

Wed, 15 Jul 2009 21:54:41 GMT

My Finland-muse requires me to post a link to this.

(My cosplay!Finland muse never knows what to do without a Sweden or Russia around, but he now has an official pair of socks. They are Lapland socks. (ie: I discovered I own a pair of socks with santa and snowflakes on them. xD)

And apologies to any and all Norway-muse-owning people reading this, but the "more like Snoreway" thing is... addictive.

This is the third time in just over a year that I've backed out of doing a costume at a con due to lack of time.

I really need to work on my time management skills. I don't want to be given a bad reputation.... And I feel so horrible for doing it every time. Even if I know I shouldn't.

I'll really need to work on time management for teacher's college, so hopefully that will help.

I love the material my dress is being made of. *o* I just need to... finish it. Probably will spend a lot of time tonight sewing buttons. Or tomorrow. We'll see. >.>

To do list for the next 24 hours:
Bake cake(s)
Finish dress
Finish apron
Finish other apron
Make mop cap
Make usa-chuu (if time)
Do necessary cleaning
Put flaps on boots
Be awesome

Who all is coming to NAF, anyway? *raises hand?*

Thu, 09 Jul 2009 12:59:30 GMT

Today's the court date for my cousin and my uncle. My mom and grandpa left to go to it.

I'm... upset. This shouldn't be happening. It may need to, but.... it just feels wrong that things should go so far as to involve.... yeah.

I know not everyone gets along perfectly with their parents, but situations like this... it makes me sad.

Your result for Roleplayer Test!...

The Shipper

Random, Character-Oriented, Sexual

As a Shipper, your focus in roleplay is romantic and sexual tension. It could be a certain ship or a variety of ships, but character relationships (and not the friendship kind) are what make roleplay fun for you. However, it's not necessarily sex: unlike the Smutfic, you're more interested in how and why and how your characters change and develop before they "get anywhere" rather than whether or not they actually do. You like to develop characters as much as possible, but often forget that any unrelated outside plot exists; you also tend to empathize with your characters a little too much: when things start going badly IC, it tends to mess with your OOC emotions.

....the last part. So true. ToT

So, I finally caved and got myself a <a href="http://twitter.com/boxofdoom>twitter</a>. Dunno how much I'll use it. We'll see. :S *inser bunnies here* Also... GAHNAFISFARTOOCLOSE!

Mon, 06 Jul 2009 03:30:16 GMT

Dear 1776,

I'm fangirling over you, yes. but I need to get work done. Please stop getting songs stuck in my head unless you feel like sending me mp3s.

Also: Richard Henry Lee reminds me of Tigger.

...renewing my G1 tomorrow. Because I fail and am still not ready for driving tests at all. >.<
Wish me luck on pretty easy written test.

Sun, 05 Jul 2009 05:16:41 GMT

Gaaah, I can't believe that I didn't notice this until it was directly pointed out to me.

John Adams is Mr. Feeny.

The sage of Boy Meets World is apparently... obnoxious and disliked. (Did you know that?)

Sun, 05 Jul 2009 03:29:40 GMT

So, after all that yesterday, they finally gave a working schedule for NAF. This makes C-chan a happy C-chan. ^o^

Things are at least starting to progress on this front!!

...I'm faaar behind on costumes still. ... I need to do Ken's apron tomorrow.

I'd work now, but 1776 IS ON!! I'VE LOOKED TO THIS ALL YEAR!! (Which... is kinda sad, because it's so... American *still a proud Canadian* >.>)

Also: Finland won the wife carrying contest! >D (Therefore, Sweden is the wife?)

Reasons why C-chan is currently stressed

Sat, 04 Jul 2009 21:39:38 GMT

1) Finances
-tuition is officially out
-I'm not working this summer

...my mom says not to worry about tuition, they'll cover it. I'm not sure whether they mean all of it, or if I'm still putting forth all I can, I'm preparing for the second. If they did the first, I would be like *_* but..... I'm willing to put forth what I can. Because I should, right?
Until that's sorted out, I'm gonna stress over that anyway. And I know it WILL work out at least, but... yeah. I'll feel better by the time school starts, probably.

2) Family
-Great Aunt (more or less) was in hospital, no clue if she still is or not.... she doesn't understand what's going on, won't take her meds, won't wear breathing mask when she needs it.... it's an unpleasant situation, and that's stressing Grandpa out, which in turn makes me worry.
-other stuff i don't know if I should go into, but it involves pretty much disowning and a restraining order. (Not me, not in my immediate family. A cousin of mine.)

3) NAF
-there might not be a schedule available at all until the con. Which is workable, but it's not very professional, and makes a few things hard on my end, since I can't plan for when everyone needs to be where.
-behind on costuming. No surprise there. It'll all get done, but... yeah. Time.
-lack of communication on a few things. Different than last year's though, I think. :S
-people are dropping out of Ouran last minute. Still have over half the cast, but GAAAAAAAAH I DID NOT NEED THIS. (3 or 4 people have told me they may/will not be available since the beginning of July. July is only 4 days old right now.)
-trying to set up cafe, is proving... interesting. Will be awesome, but.... yeah. Stress in the meanwhile. I really hope we sell out, or come close.

4) other random assorted stuff
-behind on my reading. >.< WAY behind. Still. Will catch up one way or another. And hopefully get some really good reads in before the end of summer.
-not sleeping enough. which is partially me going to bed too late. But yeah.
-....see heading.

On the bright side, 1776 is coming on tonight. I might try to do some work on Usa-chu while watching it, but I'm not missing it~!!!!!

Sat, 04 Jul 2009 05:19:29 GMT

Epic tired and stressed, maybe more or less stress than last night, possibly less, but I don't actually know. XD

But meme.

ROLEPLAYME!

( my thread: here! )

10 random things

Fri, 03 Jul 2009 03:37:14 GMT

1) Is it sad that my Finland-muse wants this hat? XD

2) I register for courses tomorrow for teacher's college.

3) Time is really racing for me right now. Today feels like it's been maybe 6 hours long, I've been up since 8am. >.<

4) Hopefully extending my G1 on Monday. ...I fail at going out and working towards my G2.

5) Still no official date on getting my braces off, but not next month. The official consensus is "soonish".

6) NAF is a week away and I have FAR too much still to do. Go team procrastination (sobsobsooob)

7) My closet's floor is now clean. My room is in a state of chaos still, and the shelves need to be organized, but my closet floor is clean. XD

8) Finances are gonna be tight this summer. Must budget accordingly. And then hope for awesome school year of awesome. And somehow getting money together over the length of it for doing stuff after. Somehow. (Anyone want to donate? Or commission me to do..... something? idk)

9) My Canada account has a doppelganger. I found this out by accident. (I wanted the name with the underscore, I didn't even check to see if without the underscore WAS taken when I made it!)

10) I wish my library had more international national epics. I want to read Estonia's. And the Grettis Saga. And other stuff. ^^

FJAGJKLHAKLSGJHASJKLGHAKLSJGHLAJKSGHAKLJGHJKLAH WHYYYYYY?

Honey and Mori are GRADUATING! The host club is breaking up! At-at least for the neighbours....
...
..but they're my favourite part... and... and... ToT

...and even though they had Haruhi's birthday, they skipped over Honey's (althoug technically he didn't have a birthday that year, he would have turned four and a half. XD)

But-but

Toshi and Chika are in 71!

AND YOU SEE MORI IN HIS GLASSES! *o*
(No one remembers he wears contacts! So this for me is *_________*)

And Takashi is being all stumbly because he and Mitsukuni are going into different departments....

Honestly, though, I find both to be a little mismatched.

Honey as an engineer.... although making toys and such is adorable... somehow I saw him doing... something else. I don't know.
And Mori going into law? Well.... it makes sense in various ways, but...
.....
I'm trying to imagine him SPEAKING enough to.... be any good in court.
........................
...that would also mean he's in the same feild as Haruhi. Interesting.

And Mitsukuni apparently calls Takashi his partner. (sorry, reading far too much into that because I can. xD)

...why are there no scanlations of 72 yet?! *wants to reeaaad*

*looks at untranslated*

GAAAH! SOMEONE TRANSLATE THIS NOW!!!

Are those the Haninozuka and Morinozuka fathers? They look much different than I thought they would. What on earth are they talking about? (Mori's father looks... slightly latino (I know he's not, just... ^^;)... >.>)

The use of the window shot is interesting. It mirrors... their descision to go into the club. Though... I have no idea if it's supposed to be on a related topic or not. It talking about graduation would make sense though... either that or the upcoming fight.

And then the Honey/Mori spar!!!

~~....what's that trip wire doing there? Is that Taka's doing? Or sabotage? Or them moving while they fight? or..... I NEED TRANSLATION!!~~
...apparently it's a boundary marking. So Takashi placed Mitsukuni out of bounds, meaning Takashi won, though Mitsukuni may have seemed the stronger fighter... ^^

And WTF with page 19? Moribot eyes and then a really patronizing look?

....apparently for winning(?), Takashi demands that Mizu brush his teeth, cut down on his cake consumption and ~~stop~~ limit his carrying around on usa-chan.
In short, point him towards growing up a bit.
............that sounds very Mori-ish, ne? ^^

Ah, but apparently they might be able to still host from university, if what I'm reading in summaries is correct.

...except the narration at the end may or may not say that the host club's doors DIDN'T open in April.

...apparently someone might have scans out tomorrow. *grabby hands towards them* GAAAAH!!! I really want to see this!!!

...I don't know if I'm happy or sad at the end of this.
But the series isn't over.
I'm just sad that this means.... probably even less -nozuka. Though it's nice that we finally at least get a tiny glimpse into their childhoods. Which I will promptly have to work in to my backstory fanfic if I ever get around to continuing it. >.>

O Canada! Terre de nos aïeux....

Wed, 01 Jul 2009 14:27:04 GMT

Heee! It's Canada day!

Matthew Williams is now 142! ~~And doesn't look a day over 18! ^^~~

Yay for Canadaaa~!

Wed, 01 Jul 2009 03:06:13 GMT

I need time and money and everything to work in my favour right now.

...it's not happening, though.

...getting rid of this headache would help too. Dunno if it's 'cause I've been online too long today or 'cause I'm stressed. Getting off and gonna attempt sleeping though. Hopefully that'll help.

Wed, 01 Jul 2009 01:00:44 GMT

You know, the downside to being a cuddly person by nature is... mixed signals.

I'm sure that I give them sometimes. And... I'm very sorry if I have. I don't mean to at all.

And, well, I know that I get them, too. And it's frustrating. And I know it's partially my own fault. *siiiigh*

There's also the fact that my brain... overanalyzes anything. Any time I get feelings for people, I think it over so much that sometimes I'm convinced I feel so strongly, and two minutes later I'm rationalizing it away in one of a few ways, or finding ever flaw I can in... whoever it is. Or both. And I convince myself that it's probably not anything really. Or maybe there is something? And then the cycle restarts. (Often the downplaying is based on... another thing that also gives me mixed signals, but I'd rather not go into what that is. >.>)

It'd probably help if I actually had the guts to... tell people how I feel, like, ever. But half the time I don't feel comfortable telling anyone how I feel. And I wonder if anyone can guess or not. But... I don't say, I feel I can't. ...even if the person's not who i have feelings for, I still have a problem with telling them, for some reason. I don't even know why. :S

...

You know, the last time someone asked me out... although I said no, I actually said how envious of them I was that they could do that?

Heh, it's kinda pathetic in a way, I guess, on my end. XD But such is the life of this introvert. Some things I excell at. Romance, I fail miserably. =D GO TEAM ME!!

On a totally unrelated note, being short really does make me feel young sometimes... I'm watching Canada's Next Top Model, and I'm having a hard time getting it through my head that a) these people are all OVER HALF A FOOT TALLER THAN ME and b) that they're almost all younger than me. ...and this will probably continue for a few years, until there's a very significant age gap. XD
Part of it might also be because I was watching earlier seasons of these shows back when they WERE older than me. That often does it as well. But yeah....

...I still can't believe it's half way through the year......

Character-turned-pairing meme.

Mon, 29 Jun 2009 17:56:19 GMT

Stolen from ketita

List 10 of your favorite ~~characters~~ pairings from different fandoms, and ask people to spot patterns in your choices, and if they're so inclined, to draw conclusions about you based on the patterns they've spotted.

1) Joushirou (Digimon)
2) Sweden/Finland (Axis Powers Hetalia)
3) Honey/Mori (Ouran)
4) William Jones/Emma (Victorian Romance Emma)
5) Tohya/Yukito (Cardcaptor Sakura)
6) Momiji + Hatsuharu (Fruits Basket)
7) Ed/Al/Hei (three people, so sue me) (FMA)
8) Claire/Cliff (Harvest Moon) (alternatively, May and Stu. XD)
9) Heartshipping [Yuugi/Ryou] (Yugioh)
10) Kanna/Maria (Sakura Taisen)

W-well, go nuts?

Doing it by individual character would be near impossible for me, I fail....

Mon, 29 Jun 2009 17:33:20 GMT

Gaaah, why do my favourite pairings almost always have to be the popular yet unpopular ones?

Like... ones that are generally accepted, and a lot of people will ship them in general. And yet not gonna get a ton of spotlight because other characters are... more important in the fandom at large.

...and I've noticed a LOT of the things I ship involve a bit of a height difference and a ton of fluff, along with some awkward tensionb but would result in TEHCUTE!

Take Joushirou for example. One of my earliest ships, which I still love.
A lot of people ship them at least in theory, because going by the two most popular methods of shipping, they're what's left... usually Taito and Mira or Taiora and Mimato as of season one (and Takari. always Takari, unless Daisuke and Miyako are around. XD)

So, Jyoushirou is the obvious.... let's finish pairing everyone off thing.

XD I actually read one fic about this once, where the two had realized this, and that neither of them had feelings for each other, and were fine with just being friends. And to be honest, even friendship fics like this make me very happy, because they're so overlooked half the time in favour of.............................. um, the rest of the season 1 cast and/or season 2 altogether. XD
...that fic was written by vvoltaire, one of my favourite digimon fanfic writers from back in the day. (Along with Relaxing Pikachu and Chris McFeely. And Hika'Kaishi.

Oh digimon fandom, how I miss you.....

Anyway. Yeah.

I somehow decided to read Joushirou fanfics this morning. And... there's hardly any of them.

Probably about 50 if you were to put all the halfway decent ones together. In a fandom about ten years old. Where Taito probably numbers in the thousand.
...at least ones that I can find.

*siiiigh*

And they fit my normal description. Jou is tall, Kou is short. They're both, in my mind at least, geeky and kinda... socially awkward (face it, Jou would probably spend days at a time studying and stressing over studying rather than go outside for a bit of fresh air, and Kou finds logarithms easier than people to understand). ...I dunno, geeky awkwardness can be adorable. I don't know. XD

XD And i don't know what draws me to that kind of pairing either, perse. A few ideas, but nothing concrete. XD I kinda want to take a meme I've seen where you're supposed to list favourite characters and ask if anyone wants to draw conclusions about it and turn it to pairings. And see if anyone actually DOES.

Heh, why not? I'll do it after I do this post.

But yeah. unpopular, popular pairings.

The only two times i've really "lucked out" are in FMA and Hetalia. My preference for... most combinations of Edwards and Alphonses is pretty mainstream, and Su/Fin is a major major pairing, though it STILL is often pushed aside for, um, anything with the axis and allies. But there's still a ton of Su/Fin out there.

Mm... maybe that's part of it though. A lot of people can't see the pairings I have working out. And not in the "they'd fight like heck!" way, but in the "... they're better as friends" or something way. Like Honey and Mori, I ship them pretty hardcore, and I have my own reasons for that... but a lot of people just see the non-existant age difference and find them hard to see together. Or something. Mmm... their families would probably not take their relationship well either.... I keep on wanting to know how all the families WOULD take it if their children were to come out of the closet.... my idea is that Tamaki... would either be disowned or be fully accepted, depending on whether or not the grandmother is still alive. Kyouya's family might not like it, but they'd have no choice but accept at least in a business sense since Kyouya... technically owns the company (anime-verse, I can see him buying it out manga-verse too XD). The twins..... probably would be accepted, but either way they'd just start up their own line of clothes and become famous designers. Haruhi... hahaha as if Ranka would care. Honey... is halfway out the door anyway, Yasuchika doesn't think he's up to it, even though Mitsukuni could kick his butt any day. Mori... I really don't know how his family would take it. I wouldn't be surprisded if he gave it up if Mitsukuni did.... and Taka telling Toshi that Toshi had to produce an heir would be........... quite an interesting thing to see a fanfic about.

But yeah. I'm rambling now. Sorry. *gives cookies to anyone who actually.... read my rambling @.@* Apologies for keeping on going off topic, and for mental leaping. >.<

Oh great, now I want to rewatch all of digimon. Preferably before the 12th. But i have a ton of sewing and cleaning to also do before that. And reading. >.>

*flails*

Yeah, I'm Konata-ing and cleaning my closet when I should be sewing. Exept, um, I'm currently doing either.

I fail. XDDD

And meep, how is it the second last day of June already? IT CAN'T BE HALFWAY THROUGH THE YEAR YET!!!!

Thu, 25 Jun 2009 16:03:33 GMT

Two posts in a morning, this is weird! XD

I don't know why, but I'm listening to some digimon karaoke right now. (Bang, your evil laugh is AWESOME.)

And it's got two things in my mind now.

1) I miss digilife. Not in its entirety, it had its downs as well as its ups for certain, but... I miss a lot of things from there. I wish I was in better contact with the few of the members for certain. (Digilife people, poke me! I want to hug you!)
I'm not sorry I left... whether it evolved into skullgreymon or metalwargreymon, it was moving beyond me, and I needed to let it go. But I do kinda wish I still had access to pineapple_boy and marching_fishes. Especially the second one, I haven't been able to come up with a good Gomamon account name since. @.@

2) I'm now in a singing mood. >.< There's at least three songs that have been on a to-do list for far too long, but is there anything anyone would like to hear me try and record for you?

Thu, 25 Jun 2009 13:41:57 GMT

So, we've started going to the Ajax fabricland more often. Not that we're usurping the Whitby and Oshawa ones by any means, but Ajax has different selection and sales, belonging to the other franchise group and all.

And it's working out well. I managed to get some good Hogwarts skirt materlial for $1/m from the clearance rack. ...actually, there's one thing that would be better, but it's like $20/m, and this stuff will work quite decently for... quite less. XP And lots of other sale stuff too.

anyway...

For some reason, I'm starting to know some of the Ajax staff better than the Whitby staff. There's one woman who knows us by sight and... at least me by name now. Her name's Clare.

It amazes me though... last time we were in, she asked me if me, two_powers, and destinywinguard were childhood friends or not. I think it surprised her to know that we've known each other for... less than four years. (Three and a half for us girls, met destinywinguard at NAF two years ago.)

She said we just gelled as if we'd known each other longer.

...this.... hits sentimental spots for me. No one's said anything like that before. And... while there are two or three groups in which I do feel at home... I think this might have been the first time someone, perhaps besides my mom or each other has actually said that.
Except for once... which... umm... was meant in a slightly different way kind of and... ummmm..... oh gosh, how the heck does that conversation STILL both amuse and embarrass me?

And on the note of fabric... GAH SO MUCH SEWING TO DO I NEED TO STOP PROCRASTINATING!!!!
And eventually pick up more Finland-coloured thread so I can fix the pockets... one side is crooked..... ToT

And get stuff so I can actually finish Naruto's jacket... nowhere sells orange zippers... and I know what I want for the collar but I'm having a hard time finiding iiiiiiiiiiiit *flail*

Wed, 24 Jun 2009 13:13:43 GMT

So, things are looking up this morning.

I finally got responses on NAF, and it looks like everything's going as hoped. ^^

Hopefully I'll be able to get some sewing work done today, and maybe get down to the teahouse to see if the manager has looked at our stuff yet.... but we'll see.

Mmm... but for now? I think I just wanna curl up and read a book. ^^

Tue, 23 Jun 2009 18:47:36 GMT

Sometimes he couldn't understand how the others couldn't see it coming. The time running out as graduation grew ever nearer and the host club's time as a family coming to an end. The feelings of the younger members growing more and more immense, more and more desperate, as if their hearts had grasped what their minds could not. And he and his cousin watched it all unfold.

He wondered if they'd be missed. Sure, they had been part of the origial family, but the had never been quite as close to the others as the rest. He knew they'd never forget, and perhaps they'd always be welcome, but their loss would not be as great as if Tamaki, or even the twins were to be the ones walking out the door and into the world.

He was scared. He knew Takashi was scared too, even if the feelings remained unvoiced by either of them. They had other ways than words to convay such feelings.

And yet, even as he felt in the pit of his stomach that this would be the end of something.... he also couldn't help but see it as a new beginning.

Yesterday, I got my start time for course registration (July 3), and signed up for TRIBES (something teacher's college related). Today, I got stuff from UofT about registering for alumni stuff.

............

Endings are hard. But I'm looking forward to the beginning to come.

I just hope that I don't get left behind in the meantime.

Tue, 23 Jun 2009 00:58:05 GMT

Sorry. Today's a multiple post type of day.

I managed to get... half of a pair of pants cut out today. ...yeah. So no sewing for me. Umless I start on usa-chu, that I could do if I feel like it. There's just not enough room most places to work when everyone's home without being in the way. :S

The house is too loud, I can hear at least one television from anywhere, including my own bedroom. And something tells me it's going to be even louder on Wednesday.
...I'm tempted to ask if someone wants a C-chan on Wednesday. :S

My brain keeps on going over the idea of a community built around otaku. The definition that more or less translates to "anime fan", not the more extreme level. And... I think it could actually exist pretty decently. Might have some interesting things that a non-otaku community wouldn't have. Like maid cafes that could stay in business. XP
Of course, I don't think that such a thing could probably come into existence. Like communism, it sounds good on paper, but I wonder how well it could go in actual... doing. I know there's people I wouldn't get along with. :S But also a lot that I would. <3

I'm still being sound-sensitive. Which isn't fun. And isn't a pain or anything. It's just annoying 'cause I'm finding it hard to block sound out. >.<

Mmm... I wish I had a job now. Or won the lotto without actually having to spend tons of money on tickets or something. :S Moneys would be nice.

They're apparently going to tear down Market Village sometime in the next... few years... to build a bigger mall.
I'll miss it if it goes. I like some of the stuff in there better than some of the stuff at P-mall itself. Like Ones. And that store with the digimon card holder books. XP

...and I'm still going crazy over NAF stuff. I need people to CONTACT ME. ashfgkasghlskgjhjhk

Probably gonna send off an email or two tonight. And hope that people come through for me soon. Otherwise... one or two things CAN'T happen. 'cause stuff needs to be bought and made and we're not going to unless we can guarentee that it CAN happen. And.... yeah. *breathes*

I now have my course registration start time for next year. ...it's getting close. My starting teacher's college. It's going to be a full year, I can say that much now.

Mon, 22 Jun 2009 19:45:36 GMT

I don't know how I feel right now.

Not specifically unhappy. But.....

two_powers and I went down to the tea shop today, hoping to visit the manager and see if she had looked at our resumes. But she wasn't in. So... I guess we'll need to come back another day, but that kinda felt like a waste.

And I wore sandals, which was a mistake, now my feet are all sore and blistery. :S Not good shoes for walking around for an hour. :S

and looks like the Hetalia comm is finally getting a troll/people being immature and responding with gifs and such post. That hasn't been deleted before I saw it at least. :S ...............................I'm not one for wank-based gif parties. :S

...I should... cut out stuff. And start sewing. Or something.

Brain's not cooperating with me, though. :S

And i seem to be sound-sensitive right now. ie: hearing anything is distracting me from what I want to be listening to. :S Heh.

I should stop complaining though, for all that I have to complain about, I have a lot of stuff to... not complain about too. ^^;
