Yeah, I'm lazy...
So yeah, the reason that my posting is becoming irregular is because I've been getting lazy and have been spending all of my time reading.
I'm not going to put up the con pics just yet because I can't get them to upload for some reason.
And my posting will become even more irregular because I'm going out of town for a week. Going to Louisiana for Telethon.
I've also been writing a lot. I'm starting a new story, "They Called Him Abdication." It's about political turmoil and one abdicated king who, with the help of a young street rat girl, fights to restore his crown. (For those who don't know abdication is when a king or queen refuses their crown.)
Well, I gotta pack,

P.S: (Here's a treat.)

Oh em friggen' gee!!!
*rolls around on the floor and dies*
Yay! Yay! Yay! Yay! Yay! Yay! Yay! Yay! Yay! Yaaaaaaaay!!! XD
Ahem...
TODAY WAS ANIME WEEKEND IN ATLANTA!!! *dies* I had so much fun. I took tons of pictures and got a bunch of cool stuff. I even got to meet the voice actor of Edward Elric, Vic Mignogna! We didn't have to wait in line or anything! All we did was shout "Gary Smith!" and he knew who we were. Our dearest Muffin Gary R. Smith (aka: Gary R.) set up the meeting for us. Vic knew my dad's music and when we met he said he was honored to meet Pop. When we got our picture taken with him a whole bunch of people came running up and took our picture too! Then later we ran into each other in the dealer's room and he recognized us. He just popped up behind me and it freaked me out.
We also are going to be on television. On the Anime Network, they were interviewing my dad about being a con going parent. I dressed up as Heimdall from Mythical Detective Loki Ragnerok and my wig cap was so annoying. I kept getting headaches because it was cutting off circulation. Tomorrow I'll put up all of the pictures and then I'll squee some more! Tomorrow at the con (which I cannot attend) Vic said he was going to lead a worship service. (YAY!) I wish I could be there. It would be awesome to see all sorts of cosplayers praising and worshiping. (lolz)
Well that's all for now.

Sorry!
I'm sorry I've been so lazy with my postings! I've just kinda... lost the passion for blogging lately.
...WAAAAAAAAH!!!! My internet life sucks right now! I don't feel like posting too much on forums, playing on Gaia, getting on myspace, or even blogging! D:
The only thing I've been interested in net wise is making sites. Speaking of which, I just made an Edward VI fanlisting/shrine. I'm not done yet but when I am I'll post the link.
I'd been debating about making it for a while but the thing that made me make up my mind was when Megumi showed me her uber pro Elizabeth I shrine. I thought to my self, if Elizabeth gets credit Edward deserves some too! So I had to make this site because I felt I owed it to him for some strange reason.
...Anyway, I've got pictures from when I went out to eat with Megumi. I spruced them up with with photoshop because I couldn't resist. Click on the links to see the pictures! (I'm the one with the short hair.)
The ladies of Broadway
Don't tell my secrets
Fashion is the Mob
Hattitude
Intell Program
Mac Addicts
Odd Animal Out
Oh my!
Buy one princess, get one free! $50 each
Tie one on!
Va va voom
Well AWA is looming ever near, I'm so exited. I'm going to be Heimdall from Mythical Detective Loki Ragnerok. ^_^

Lolz
I just realized yesterday that L.O.L. plus a Z call be pronounced Lollz. XD I was saying it all day.
Anyway yesterday was Megumi's birthday dinner thing. Her actual birthday isn't until tomorrow but we ate out together yesterday. We went to the Cheesecake Factory and I ate like a pig! I usually don't eat a lot when I go out but with a place like the Cheesecake Factory I can't resist. I don't think I've ate that much since my birthday. That's why I always say I have two or three meals a year and I snack in-between. I also realized that I cannot resist the temptations that waiters present. I finish my drink and they come up to me and ask, "Would you like some more water?" I feel bad if I turn them down so by the end of the night I've had my eight glasses a day and then some. The waiters saying, "I think you've had enough, miss. I'm gonna call you a cab." (rofl)
After we went out to eat we went to the mall and we put on all sorts of funny hats and sunglasses then we took pictures. XD Megumi's friend Ms. Libby came along too. She was so sweet and funny. She would talk to any and everybody about any and everything. She was tons of fun to be around!
I'll post some of the pictures tomorrow.
lolz.

Buried again...
Today we watched the film "Lady Jane." Now redirect your minds to the lengthy post I made about Edward VI.
This film was so grossly inaccurate that for me, it personally felt like they buried them all again.
They made Gilford Dudley a little drunkerd (which he was) with a "soft heart." A "heart for the people." He wanted to help the poor and hungry. Bull. Gilford cared little for anything besides himself and his mother, who was entirely left out of the film. When things didn't go Gilford's way he's run to his mother to makes things better.
The portrayal of Jane made her out to be a bit obnoxious and clingy to Guilford who in reality she hardly liked.
There was no time that they were left alone in a house together for some grand makey-outey sessions. They were in fact separated after the marriage so that they would NOT consummate the marriage, because if things "didn't work out" it would make divorce easier.
There was no new shilling. No new shilling at all, I don't know why they even put that part in there.
They left out the fact that Gilford and Jane's wedding was a triple wedding with Katherine Grey, Jane's little sister to Lord Herbert, and Catherine Dudley, Gilford's sister to Lord Hastings.
When Edward convinced Jane to marry Gilford he did not go to her home but she came to London to see him.
Jane did not give away all of her clothes to the poor, and she did not do so many "good things" during her nine days, in fact she was sick for nearly 5 or 6 days of her reign. And she protested that they had poisoned her, just as they had poisoned Edward. (Which wasn't confirmed to be true but it was a large court rumor that Edward had been poisoned.)
In the film when they told Jane that they were going to crown Gilford King she had to "protect him," so she denied him the crown and naturally being the "soft hearted" guy he was, he didn't care. In truth he did care, a lot and he pitched a big temper tantrum.
After being sent to the tower Jane never spoke to Gilford again but he sent a note requesting her to meet him and she declined. Why she declined is uncertain.
In the movie Jane never saw Gilford go to tower hill but was told about the experience by the priest. In truth she saw him go and she saw his body being brought back. Also in the movie Gilford was calmly taken to the block but in reality he went down kicking and screaming.
In the movie they acted like Philip of Spain was the only marriage candidate for Mary but there was another man too, who was English. I forget his name.
Now I wasn't entirely displeased with the film. I think the actor who portrayed Jon Dudley did a good job and so did Patrick Stuart and the boy who played Edward. Also I liked the costume design, it looked fairly accurate.
But over all I give this one 1 out of 5 stars. Not worth seeing but not worth murdering the actors, directors and writers.

5 years...
I can't believe it's been five years since the attack on America. I hear a lot of my friends who are about the same age saying how they didn't understand what was going on. Most of them were in school but I was at home. (I'm home schooled.) I was downstairs eating breakfast when the plane went into the second tower.
I was ten years old yet I understood that something big was happening. Something that would change my outlook on life. And it did. I became very interested in politics and current interests. Most people are very critical of how the president has handled the situation over the years, but I stand firm with him. I do not agree entirely with everything he does, such as caring too much about what the polls and media say about him and his trying to be "politically correct." But over all I think he's done a great job, he's faltered at times but he's only human.
Aside from all of my political rantings I have enjoyed my day, I finished watching that movie and I must say that I was thoroughly impressed with ABC and I hope they release a uncut DVD.
Well I got to go!

My events and stuff...
My posting is indeed becoming irregular. Anyway, the day before yesterday we went out to eat with some friends.
One of my friends, Little Amber got her poor finger stuck in the door! D: I felt so bad for her but she was so cute when she cried, it was pitiful. So as a consolation prize we're putting a website together for her. She's too young for myspace and there isn't really anything else she's interested in joining. She's a big Narnia fan so she picked out a picture of Aslan for the layout and we make him look nice and golden on photoshop.
Her elder sister Angel has the coolest fashion sense! She's only 12 but she looks and acts a lot older. She dresses like a total goth but she's so bubbly. Her birthday this year is going to be on October the 13, which is a Friday. She was born on friday the first. It's a miracle she's even alive. She was born with serious complications, I think she was missing her brain stem or something like that. But she survived and is not an extremely smart and beautiful girl. She's teaching herself to speak German! She's getting so fluent that sometimes when you talk to her she starts to rattle off in German. They're mother just got married the other day. She'd been dating her new husband for quite a while and they even have a 3 year old son together. They call him Daddy and they're all such a cute family... I love having cute friends!
Anyway, today we saw part 1 to the movie "Path To 9/11" on ABC. I must say, for ABC to be such a biased, liberal station I was completely floored! The film was objective and unbiased to both liberal and conservative a agendas.
*claps* Well done ABC! I can't wait for the next part tomorrow!

 Oh goodness...
My posting has become irregular. This whole "work" thing has gotten in the way of my precious internet free time.
Anyway, onto the postings, this entry shall contain minor rants, a bit of mourning, daily ramblings, and such.
First of I would like to take time to cry long and hard about the final chapter of Fruits Basket being released on the 20th. Ahem... WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!
Do not fear readers of the english released manga! You're time is far from now.
Now, that I'm done with that I'll go onto recent films.
Today we watched the movie "Mrs. Brown" which is about Queen Victoria and John Brown. John Brown was Victoria's faithful servant and companion in her later years. This movie played out the story a little more dramatic than it was, but what do you expect? It's a movie. Over all it was a delightful film and the accuracy left little to be desired. 3 out of 5 stars! (Since when am I giving things stars!?)
As of yesterday school has officially begun. It wasn't so bad. But I read a neat little short story in Literature called "Miss Hinch" and if you can find a a copy of it I urge you to read it. It's quite entertaining. 5 out of 5 stars! (More stars!)
Also I would like to take a moment of time in reverence to Steve Irwin, who died last friday.
I have to say I was totally shocked when I heard the news, I think everyone was. At first I thought it was a joke... then I searched wikipedia. Wiki never lies so yeah... it was true. It's weird to think the Crocodile Hunter is gone, he was almost immortal. Well, anyway, rest in peace, Steve.
And below is a little Le Femme Nikita treat for you!

 I'm back!
I got back thursday be we left out again the next day and we didn't get home until yesterday.
I have a couple things to blog about this time so enjoy the read. (If anybody even reads meh blogger.)
Okay the conference last week was awesome! Even though I killed my feet from working like crazy I had a ton of fun. We met a lot of cool people too, and the ministry was awesome. I met a man who learned how to speak Arabic fluently in 30 minutes, he was an adviser of some kind to different leaders of nations. He was super nice and he taught us how to fix up authentic english muffins. Tons of butter and a small heap of jam. It was yummeh to teh max!
When we got home we went straight to Sandersville to see our dear friends the Hancocks. I told little Charlie the story of Edward VI and when I finished I asked him what his favorite part was he said, "When that little king boy died." I felt so betrayed! lol I guess it was the part that impacted him the most because he kept asked questions about how and why Edward died. It was tragically cute.
I've also started up a mini business of setting up music myspaces for our computer illiterate friends. I'm being paid $50 a gig. I've already made two but I've only been paid half as of yet.
Tomorrow school finally starts. I'm dreading it very much. DX We haven't gotten all of the curriculum in yet because the store we used to buy it from shut down. Which makes me sad because there was a book I wanted there. Oh well.
Also I've been drawing pictures of Edward V and his brother Prince Richard lately. I like the way Richard turned out, he looks so cute. I'm using the "Princes in the Tower" painting for inspiration.
Also my mom rented season 3 of La Femme Nikita, one of the very best shows to ever air on television. Even though I know what happens because I saw all the episodes when the originally aired I'm still on the edge of my seats. It's like when I watch Star Trek: TNG.
Well that's all!

Out of town!
Hey everyone! I'm going out of town tomorrow and am not going to get back until Thursday. I can pretty much guarantee that I won't be able to get to a computer.
Now onto todays events!
Nothing really happened today, I just went out to eat and am helping my father do some stuff for business.
Yesterday we went to the movies and saw "Nacho Libre" it was stupidly funny. I think my mother laughed the most and the loudest.
Anyway that's basically all that's going on.
