Just some random (and long) randomosity
So I've decided to launch into the suicide mission that is listening to my entire library of music. Furthermore, I'm listening to it while shuffle is off. Now, this wouldn't be so bad...if I didn't have five different versions of "Change the World", "I Am", etc. So far, the worst I've pushed through are the three versions I have of "Want It All Back". My goal for today is to get through my "S" section (I started from the back and am working my way up to the top; aka, "*~Asterisk~").
And the "S" section is 66 songs long. x___x

But considering I managed to get through 47 songs last night is a good sign. ;D

To make things not-so-suicidal, I've instigated some rules:
1.) Repeats may be skipped through. Repeats are not the same as remixes.
2.) theOtaku podcasts may be skipped, but some part must be listened to.
3.) If Yuki Kajiura's music gets too depressing, then skip it.
4.) Music may continue playing if going for a bathroom/food break.
XD

In other news, I've pretty much decided to go as Haruhi for ACen. Waffles has said that, if her aunt can help out with the costume, she'll go as a random customer. XD;; (It was her that decided to do this...I had no part in it. >.>;) Seeing as how I look a lot like Haruhi, it's an easy fit. No wig or hair dye either! 8D

While researching the costume, I came upon a problem...the badge on the left breast pocket. After a bit of searching, I found a patch on a couple of anime stores - for nineteen dollars. A major "Wtf?!" action ensues.
But I hunted around some more, and found an eBay store that's selling 'em for $4.50. 8D This is the version I'm going to buy. There are two others, but the "anime" version has this ugly yellow-orange background. It also doesn't look to elegant. The second version is the same as the linked picture, but also with a funky yellow-ish background.

...Checklist time! XD
+ Pants: Horray for band concert attire!
+ Shoes: Same thing!
+ Uniform coat: Sewing or something is required.
+ Tie: Just buy a black one. There's not a chance in hell I'm buying a black tie with a purple stripe for twenty bucks. =P
+ Dress shirt: I have something that could work, though I could probably raid my mom's closet. XD
+ Badge: Resource found. :3

I'm doing quite well. xD But the jacket's going to be the definite hardest to make.
But it's fuuuun. D:

While talking to Sangome last night, we got on the subject of the fact that she would have to get a hotel room if she were to attend ACen. This came about due to the fact that I had read a thing about "room parties" in the FAQ. XD; But that also brings up the point that Shinkiro's attending. This is why me and bell are lucky - we live in the area. +D

This year, I'm almost garunteed to meet somebody. Why is this year different? I have...a CELL PHONE! *jumpsorz* Even though I know this is way too far in advanced, if any of you are attending...and I trust you (>_>;)...then a number swap is in order. XD
Which thus prompted a play-out of events between me and 'gome:

Sangome: "Katana, I think I've encountered a yaoi booth...Oh God, the fangirllllssss...!"
Katana: "'gome? 'GOME?! SANGOME! Answer meee!"
Sangome: "AGH! *cackle fzzz* ...LLLLSSS!!!"
Fangirls: "OMG HOW CAN U NT LIK IT LAWLZ?!?!11!?!!?1!"

*cough*

One last point - we're getting satellite TV this coming Friday. 8D After extremely little debate, the not-battle between me and my brother as to who gets the hookup for their room was given to me. +D
W00tzor!
