Happy Halloween everyone! ^__^ I hope you all had a fun one! As I have been doing the past few years, I made another Kingdom Hearts based pumpkin X3 So yay lol XD Not much else new with me lol. Oh though I did get to go to New York for the first time so that was cool ^.^ Kinokuniya Bookstore in New York City is so totally awesome! *o* Kyaah!~ So many mangas, anime, books, magazines, action figures, plushies, and more! X3 If you ever go to NYC you must go there!! And if you're one of my friends in real, if you ever visit me, we are so going there together >w< OMG *_________________* 10,000 PAGEVIEWS?! Wow I never thought that would happen @.@ Thank you guys so very much!!! TwT I love you all! I'll have my thank you drawing up in a bit ^_^ Ack I have so many sketches that I need to finish, ink, color, and upload to here >.> I know I said I'd have more up soon, but I've been so terrible about get drawings done >.< *kicks self* But I promise that will change! I have exactly 12 days left of being a teenager T.T So in those last 12 days it's my goal to get as many of my drawings finished as possible! So I really mean it when I say I'll have more art up sooner XD I'm sorry I'm taking a while on those free sketches too T__T I haven't forgotten about them though. I started most of them and should have them up in the next few weeks ^.^ Thank you all for being so patient! So my agenda for the next few weeks is draw like crazy, finish writing my KH fanfic, and work more on my Chi cosplay :3 Well I guess that's it for now XD Have a Happy Halloween, thank you again for the 10,000 pageviews, and more art will be up soon!!! ^.~

Hiya everyone! ^.^ How are you? I hope you all had a super awesome summer!! ^o^ I know I did <3 I had so much fun with my brother, , , , , and all my other friends that I got to see ^.^ I wish I didn't have to leave home T___T Oh well, all good things come to an end -_- But, time flies so before I know it I'll get to see them again and make tons more memories with them ^w^
So I've been back in Pennsylvania since the end of July. I spent most of August getting used to being here again XD (mainly dying of the humidity and crying "Why did I have to leave California?! lol) But I got to see my kitties again so that was a plus, and working at the barn again with the horses was nice. Otherwise I'd be dying right now if I didn't have them o.o August was also full of birthdays for me lol so I was busy making/buying things for my mom, Madison, Leah, Maria, and Amy. I hope you had wonderful birthdays! ^.^ (as well as anyone else who celebrated a birthday recently :3) Aside from getting back into my old routine I've been drawing a lot more I think so I hope to have more sketches up soon. I've been working on one in particular and right now I'm pretty proud of it X3 It's probably the best drawing I've ever made so far *o* And even more amazing is that I started it 3 weeks ago (opposed to starting it months ago and only now just getting back to it like most of my drawings XD) I'm almost done with it, and once I've colored it I post it ^.^ Well I think that's all for now lol. I hope you are all doing well! Bye bye for now (^_^)/

Omg I haven't been on here in a while @___@ That is very weird for me XD How has everyone been? Are you guys enjoying summer so far? :3 I know am! On June 30th I flew back home to California again to visit my friends and my brother. I'm still here in CA so that's why I haven't been able to get on here everyday like I normally do. So I'm very sorry that it is taking me forever to get back to some of you >.< I was able to login here about a week or so ago and I was going to post a journal then, saying I was gone for a month, but when I went to type it I started to go on and on about Anime Expo 2009 >w< and I wasn't able to finish the journal So I'm posting this one now lol. Though I will post another in depth journal about AX and my entire trip once I'm back in PA *dies* (I don't want to leave home T__T) Also when I get back I'll have lots of pictures, videos, and sketches to upload so please look forward to those! Thank you ^_^ I hope you are all doing well and are having a good summer! (or winter lol depending on where you live) Bye bye for now ^.~

Hiya everyone! I hope you are all well ^^ Whoa I have posted a journal since Chirpy died T.T I still miss her so much, but I'm getting better ^_^ A lot has happened in the past month and a half since then that has cheered me up. For starters I got my Chirpy plushie in the mail ^.^ I put Chirpy's collar on her and she now stays by my pillow :3 And at the end of April I bought plane tickets! ^o^ With the help of the amazing Amanda I will once again be able to visit my brother and friends back home in California and go to Anime Expo 2009! <3 Thank you so much Amanda!! ^.^ Another fun/scary/exciting thing that happened is that I got to ride Caesar for the first time ^_^ He's a horse at the barn I work at and he is big o.O I have to stand on a box to groom him XD It was scary being on top of him at first (because the ground was father away then when I ride Sage lol), but once both of us got use to each other it was fun ^_^ I have 3 favorite necklaces: a clear heart with a frog in the center that Kelly gave me, silver heart that says 'Always' on it which my mom found, and my Sora's necklace. I somehow lost my Sora's necklace last year, and I lost the silver heart one this year T.T I hope I can find them someday, but for now I'm happy that I'm getting this new and now my 4th favorite necklace ^.^ [link] It's perfect for the Rayu cosplay that I am going to make ^__^ Kyaah!~ I'm so excited for summer!! I haven't seen my brother and friends in almost a year and I haven't been to Anime Expo in 2 o.o And I can't wait to cosplay!! I'll be going to A.X. all 4 days so I'll have a cosplay for each day (Naminé, Misa, Sexy no Jutsu Naruto, and Rayu). And ooh, if things go the way we talked and planned, Amy might come stay with me for a while this summer! ^w^ No one's ever visited me here before and I've never had a friend stay over night so I'm so über excited >w< With everything that is happening and might be happening, I know this summer will be a blast!! :3 So all of this excitement has really cheered me up ^.^ Plus that fact that I now have 7,000 pageviews!!

Hi everybody. Today was not very good. One my babies, Chirpy (Alfina) [link] was hit by a car T_T Around 7pm we got a call from one of our neighbors. We thought they were calling about Zack's collar (because he manged to loose it >.< ) but they said one of our cats got hit by a car. They told us where they were, and I ran outside to find them. They were down the ally. When Maria and I got there we saw the kitty and saw it was Chirpy. There was a lot of blood, and for one second I thought/hoped it wasn't her because her collar is hot pink and that collar was red. But then it struck me that it was soaked in blood =_= I stood there kinda like "OMG Chirpy noo!" but didn't cry. Not until I stared walking up the hill to tell Anne and my mom did I start sobbing T.T We got a box and brought her back to our house. It was so sad, our kitties looked in the box at her and then after a bit they backed away. Every time I looked at her the tears would flow, and then I began thinking about all they cute things she did and realized I'd never see her again T__T My dad got some shovels and we buried her next to the little plum tree in our backyard. We're going to get a kitty plushie that looks like Chirpy and name it after her and put her collar on it :3

On a happy note, I hope everyone has a very Happy Easter!! <3

Oh to add to this, last night I made a remembrance video of Chirpy. You can see it here if you'd like [link] Thanks for watching if you do ^__^ Love you Chirpy!!! ^w^
