AMV!
Well, I did something I haven’t done in roughly two-and-a-half years -- I cracked open Windows Movie Maker and tried making an AMV. It’s far from perfect, and it gets a bit sticky in the middle, but all in all, I’m pretty happy with how it came out. And ever since I first heard that song by the Barenaked Ladies, I’ve been itching to make a Yuki music video, since the lyrics matched him so well and the overall peaceful rural sound reminded me of Fruits Basket from the get-go. I think one of the great things about Fruits Basket is that just about anyone can find a character they can relate to. Mine just happens to be Yuki . . . for the most part.
In the real world, I started school again. Woot ( . . . that’s sarcasm, folks). Those carefree days of waking up in my deluxe queen-sized bed and sewing to my heart’s content all day will be missed indeed. I’ve also been dealing with some personal issues, so that hasn’t been feeling too good either. But my friends here are keeping me in somewhat good spirits, at least. They don’t know anything’s bothering me, but just being around them helps. In conclusion, it could be loads worse.
And I promise, I will post that novel of a survey in my next post. You peeps will get the definitive survey about LD-san next time.
For right now, though, I have some horribly angsty cosplay pictures to show you. XD
Look what I did over winter break.
More Akito stuff . . . I’m running out of headers, here.

I do have more pictures, but I’m too lazy to post them right now . . . you can see the rest in my cosplay gallery here on Otaku if you want.
I’ll post one of my fancels next time, as well. Since some people have asked, a fancel consists of celluloid/acetate (or an office transparency, in my case ^^), ink, and acrylic paint. First, you sketch a rough draft of the character on regular paper, indicating where all the shadowing is. Then, you put the transparency over the sketch and trace over the original sketch lines with ink. Then, once the ink is dry, you gob on each layer of paint. This part is very time consuming, since sometimes you have to add multiple layers of paint (and wait for each layer to dry) so that the brush strokes don’t show through.
Well, that’s it this time. See you guys later.
