   Somebody told me that you had a boyfriend who looked like a girlfriend that I had in February of last year. . .
Sorry, listening to the Killers.

2:01 P.M.

Hello all.

I didn't get around to posting last night. I was chatting with several people online which led to a phone call with TripleJ which led to me working on my Shika costume which led to me passing out in a box of spools which led to me dreaming about Shino Aburame and a farm in the countryside... o_O.

But anyway... the costume is taking a turn for the worse. I think I may have made my pants too short, and this is one of those things that will make me cry. Also, I am slightly colorblind, and the little jacket/shirt Shika wears with his clan symbol I ALWAYS thought was a really light sandy color. However, I was looking at some screenshots and it's more of a light gray color. Then again, I looked at some cosplay pics, and a lot of people fucked that up, too. Seriously, without looking at a picture of him, don't you think it's like a sandy color?

Well, I did cut pretty much everything. I think I might make the jacket/shirt thing a little shorter. The pants I have are just some hideous, cheap brown slacks that I cut. I'm thinking for the actual shirt, I might just buy a fishnet shirt from Hot Topic and a cheap green shirt from Wal-Mart or something, then tie the fishnet over the green shirt. ^^; Either that, or I'm gonna be really cheap and draw lines on a green shirt. No matter which option I choose, however, it doesn't look like my extremely strict budget will allow me the material for a Chuunin vest. -_-; So I have to do my best.

This is because I have an Orochimaru costume to complete now. Here's my issue, and maybe you guys can help me out since I don't know pretty much anything about dying hair. I need short, nearly white spiky hair and I also need my color of hair to be ponytail length. Right now my hair is in the middle, but I would prefer it short again. Should I let it grow out so I'll have the ponytail and just use a wig for Orochi, or should I chop it off again and use a one-washout sort of dye and then I could slick my hair back and find one of those ponytail extensions? It seems like just trying to find a wig for Orochi would be easier, but again, I don't really know.

For Orochi anyway, I'm planning on just buying some cheap robe and maybe some plain satin ribbons for customizing. Then it's just a matter of bandages and eye make-up. ^^

Well, even with all of this on my plate, I've also decided I severely need to take off some weight. Starting today, if my okaa-san will leave me the fuck alone for two minutes, I may go start working out again at the gym. Otherwise I will probably just do insane DDRing again, like I used to. And I'm going to restrict my diet very much so... which means... no more pocky. T_T But I'll live. I need to shed some poundage.

. . .

Well whaddya know, okaa-san just came in to inform me we're heading to my obaa-san's to mow and water grass. -_-;;;;; Sucks.

Alright, some shout-outs, because I probably won't shut up until I do them.
