Can anyone tell me if this statement is legitimate? Apparently there is some ruling to do with pornography in Australia that states that there can't be anything that depicts women with small breasts as it may cause an association to children in a sexual manner.
It seems ridiculous to me and quite frankly the fact something like this may have travelled successfully through a Parliament seems obscene.
I'm barely a B cup... does this law mean I'm pedo bait now?

This is going to be such a bi-polar post... so I'll start with the shitty bit!
TL;DR - I miss my friend and I fix a teddy
As a good few of you know, about 3 months ago a really good friend of mine moved to Canada. He was one of the first few people I met when I actually started making my life here in Bristol a real LIFE and not just me being here for university. He created the anime society I'm now President of and I worked with him at K-me for well over a year.
I fucking miss him.
He's been gone three months and I still cry when I remember how stuff was before he left. I feel so guilty because I feel like I haven't kept in touch properly because I know it will upset me. It's taken me until tonight to realise I've been doing it! I may email this to him afterwards, I'm not sure whether it will help me to sort this out. Thing is, I'm so proud of him for going. I know I never would be able to because I'm so attached to the people and places around me that I could never just set out and DO it like he has. He's got friends over there now and he's sorting a decent life out, I just hope he gets to find the music he misses so much.
I don't know what it is, you can probably go back into my past and find some proper psycho-babble thingy about abandonment issues but I don't like people I love leaving me. Surely that's normal! It was a little life-update thing that he'd posted to let us all know he was still alive and kicking that set me off tonight. I think I needed it, I needed a good cry and a good kick up the arse to fix this. I keep stuff at arms length so it doesn't upset me when I should be dragging it in and dealing with it instead of half-ignoring a very good friend.
I'm such a penis-pussy sometimes. I'm going to email this post as soon as I've finished it. LJ has turned into diary for me I swear! I always post when I should be going to bed!
The happy part to this post is something I did for Luke's Dad. I went to Luke's to spend the night and when I got there his Dad was just about to leave for rehearsal, however, the puppy had been left alone and had ripped to shreds a stuffed rabbit that Luke's Dad had had for nearly 50 years. The poor man looked so upset. So he left for rehearsal and I decided to take a look at the bits of the rabbit they'd collected from the floor. I could piece most of it together so I had a go at frankensteining this poor bunny.
Three hours of stitching later, there was one rabbit. Minus one ear (that was due to age and not puppy) and with slightly deformed arms (Puppy had eaten some of the fabric) but it was rabbit shaped! Luke's dad was so happy when he got home and was so appreciative. It was lovely and it felt so worth it.
I can ignore all the costumes I've done and the things I've made for others before now. That beaten up old rabbit is the proudest bit of sewing I've ever done :)

I found this on a site called 'Sex is not the enemy' and I quite like it!
"I disagree with the use of the word “pussy” to describe a weak person. Because the vagina is the tougher of the two genitals. Think about it. It can pass something fifty times its size through it. You can pound on it for hours and it goes, “More! More!” It bleeds every month and it won’t die! It’s like the Predator! Meanwhile my penis… If it gets cold or there’s a fight he’s like, “I’m outta here!” What I’m trying to say is… my dick is a pussy."
I've had my interlude, now back to work!

| Update! Because I can! |
[10 Jan 2010|03:09am] |
You can always tell when I'm content because I don't post very often! I've still been as busy as ever, with work and uni and society and this life thing I apparently have now. I'd never go back to my 'don't have a life will stay in flat and have Kingdom Hearts for company' day but boy do I miss the free time!
Christmas was... tinselly? I made the epic trek back up north as usual and spent time with my Mum and Stepdad. It was so laid back it was awesome, I never like sleeping in when I'm at home as I'm there so little I feel like I'm wasting time but I can happily sit and do nothing. It was a welcome break to be honest, I'd worked non-stop on deadlines and had extra shifts in work.
Sadly my shifts seem to be getting cut down when the new manager comes in so that may cause some money issues but we'll cross that river when we come to it!
I got back from home late on the 30th then completely made two costumes from scratch and learned a song for Club night on NYE. I was rather proud of myself as usually I feel my rush jobs are shoddy (I spent most of the time on a commission and rushed my own cosplay in about four hours!) this time I felt they both turned out well :) Club Night itself was a really good night with some awesome people appearing out of the woodwork :P
I haven't given myself New Year's Resolutions as I never stick to them and should be doing them all through the year anyways! I do however, have stuff that I'm working on. I'm starting to put some money away, when I wont miss it for the days that I will miss it! I'm also going to cook more at home, I love cooking but half the time I'm lazy and will just go to the shop on the way to work. Home cooking will be better for me and saves me money! I waste so much money on snacks, seriously. Long days in uni are a bit of a killer, I really need to start taking a lunch in.
Anyhoos, current plan is stay on top of uni work and start Kid Buu!! ^_^

GAWD I'M SO TIRED!!!
Halloween was a massively draining yet fun time for moi. During the day I went to the Zombie walk with my friend Adam and we gatecrashed it dressed as Resident Evil characters complete with toy shotguns. It looked ok in my tiny hands but Adam's looked more a pistol with wishful thinking XD
It was hilarious, so many people but so much effort into their costumes and looked amazing. There was a zombie angler and broccoli and chav family, people were just so clever! We met up with miiol, Chibi, Mart and Kate and Jack and Liz who were all zombied up and I took great pleasure in shooting them.
After the Walk I had to go home and get ready for work -_- I was not best pleased about working on Halloween but since I was missing a party to be there I decided I was going to have fun. And I did somewhat! As fun as we tend to have on a busy night anyways, it's easy to cope with the drunks and arses when the kitchen has a good atmosphere.
Anyhoos, work finished at 2am and I got the night bus to join a very funny party at Andy's. I got there just as the boobs were coming out, I was most pleased XD We didn't go to bed til 6am and then had a very lazy day about club today. Was nice ^^
So yes, I'm trying to do more happy posts and updates and what not. Halloween was busy but awesomes :) Hope you all had fun too!

Do I always update when I'm procrastinating? Seriously?
*looks at date of last update* Feeeeeeck.
Ah well. Dealios.
As you can imagine I've not been keeping up with my Flist lately but I'll get there eventually. Tis my last day of uni v.2.0 tomorrow, minus exams. Then it is the uber update of uni v.3.0. ... wow I'm so much more of a nerd than I was before I came to Bristol.
I'm currently writing a pointless 500 word essay on the balls that is the graduate Development Programme. How can you even write about something that was like.. yeah... this is how you write a CV. Gee thanks for that. Yeah now write an essay about it... sorry whut? I'm on 300 and have taken a hiatus of wishing to do other things. and I've run out of stuff to write about. Time to make stuff up! Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!
I think I'm doing a brainfart update as I seriously cba to do fill you all in on EVERYTHING that's happened since December. So I'll give you the main stuff
- UNI
- Luke, friends etc
- JOB
- Cosplays
- New friends
- WENT TO THE ZOO
- Minamicon which was hilarious
- SOCIETY
- Cosplay Clubnights
- General dicking about with a dash of usual assignment avoidance
- Changed my hair colour TWICE
- Mum's terminal lung cancer went into remission
Seriously, how the hell do you put terminal cancer into remission? It's still terminal... but my Mother seems to have told it to fuck off for a while so she can do other stuff instead of the whole dying thing. I think she's either a marvel to science or bionic. I'm leaning more towards the latter as she keeps complaining about being heavy ¬_¬
If you haven't guessed Mum and I are horrifically blunt about her cancer, secretly we think if we made fun of it enough it'll go emo in the corner and forget about her. Doctors refuse to believe us that it works.
On a minor note I CANT WAIT FOR SUMMER, I HAVE SHIT TO DO AND UNI KEEPS GETTING IN THE WAY!
... that is all.

It's 5am. Why aren't I asleep? Why have I not been able to sleep until the sun decides to come up again? but no, that's not the end of it. After about, oh an hour, of said sleep I wake up having a coughing fit.
Disrupted sleep is always an issue for me. It makes me feel groggy and makes me sleep later than I usually would. At least I'm awake for my flatmate who's having an 'omg I have work in four hours and I can't sleep' spasm. I have to get up tomorrow too >_<
Digi's coming here to sort out the music for the fresher's presentation (Organising all of fresher's myself even though it's a three-person committee... stress = lack of sleep? y/n -_-) I'm moody... meh. So yes, I have to wake up and shower and be human before he gets here. I've basically been in bed for the past few days with my stupidly bad cold, ironically not sleeping. So I'm just gross.
Good news is I finally finished the next chapter of The One Where Roxas Does the Chasing... but none of my betas are online because IT'S 5AM. And I joined a new RP forum which should be interesting. I miss Cerlard, I need to get him out and pestering Arlan again. New RP thing spawned a question in my mind. Am I an old RPer now? I look at people's RP profiles and a lot of people are 15/16 o_O (sometimes I can guess because of spelling but still) but... wtf? I get a message 'oh you like medfan would you like to RP?' 'Yeah sure' *looks at profile* OH MY GOD YOU'RE STILL IN HIGH SCHOOL. It's weirded me out a little.. and yes, I know I'm one of the younger ones of my friends so I guess it's poking at you guys too :P
Anyhoos, I got hyper earlier... lack of sleep or just me? who knows but I made ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) darkenglishrose hyper too... because I can. The result may hurt your brain but it makes me giggle. warning: CAPSLOCKS FOLLOW

Omfg I just have such a spaz. I'm at home at the minute to visit my mum and we have wireless. now, I'm sitting on my laptop, with less than 2 gig of memory left so I start to remove useless programmes. I end up deleting something that made my internet stop working...
Say Hello to the Kiichan panic cycle.
>OMG my internet stopped working and thus msn
>GAH I was talking to Anish he goes back to uni tomorrow
>He'll think I've just gone offline
>He'll be upset with me
>OMFG I need to get that thing I deleted back!
>ARGH it's not in recycle bin, you FAIL recycle bin FAIL I say! I must download it
>OMFG my internet isn't working!!!!
(Anish later said: "Oh, I was reading manga I didn't even notice you'd gone" adkfhfhsakfh!!!!)
So yes, I ninja downstairs as it's now 1am... trying not to trip over my mother's oxygen wires by laptop screen light. I figure if I shove a wire into what I think is the internet port in my mother's house I can get onto msn and get Anish to help me fix it. Nope... didn't work, even after putting the wireless code thing in again (this should have been a clue to good ol' soft shit here...)but I finally think of grabbing my mum's laptop and get online. It went like this:
KiiChan: MITHOO! MITHOO MITHOO I BROKE THINGS, THINGS ARE BROKEN AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DOOOOOOOOOO
Anish: What? What happened? what did you do? Are you ok????
K: *Explains*
A: You deleted your wireless drivers?!?!?!
K I don't know! Did I?
A: You're fucked
K: How do I get them back? I don't know what to do?
A: ok, calm down. Is your laptop near? *starts to explain thingies*
K: yeah... yeah ok *clicks stuff* ... oh... I think I did it...
A: What?
K: There's a wireless thing here... oh.. my firefox works... I think I accidentally fixed it.
A: ... *headdesk* ok, I'm going back to my manga
Turns out I'd deleted the synthesis thingy for my house wireless, not my actual driver and because I have stupidly shoved it into the wireless router thinking of it like a LAN then it sorta came back... or something... I don't know I'm a software person, hardware I am shit at.
I pity my boyfriend sometimes....
A: Why did you panic so much? just take a deep breath next time
K: The thought of you thinking I'd just buggered off upset me.. like, what if you'd checked and saw I'd gone and thought I'd gone to sleep without saying goodnight and I love you before your flight tomorrow?
A: What if I'd checked? Your mind actually works like that?!?
So yeah, sorry if you were talking to me and I disappeared. I broke my wireless then magically repaired it... o_O This mainly applied to hollow_strife Sorry hun! I know you were proof reading!

It was stupidly hot today. My homepage said 28 degrees IN BRISTOL FFS. this caused a summer storm to hit, it was fun, there was a very wet pidgeon outside my window. zaros and I thought this would cool things down. Nooooooo we go outside again after said storm. It's HOT and WET. EW, did not feel nice so Mike was left to fend for himself and I fled back to my flat.
I've spent most of today hand sewing my Seifer cosplay, I ran to a charity shop to get the right colour trousers. I've almost finished his coat, he needs his collar though and a whole lot of hemming. It's all for Digi's photoshoot tomorrow. I really wanted to get Seifer done for it, I think if I ignore the hems I can do it. I can always work on it more before Amecon. I've had to stop sewing now though, it's almost 2am, I really want a coke but there's no where open but I'm sooo tired >_<
Heat and sewing make kiichan tiiired. and my bf is online but he's 'away' .forever... which is annoying as he's in America atm and I haven't been able to talk to him. Grrr.
Ok, this post it a wee bit pointless but oh well. Blame lack of sleep plz.

Huuuur rant on my LJ, I'm obviously such an emo/geek/nerd no lifer..... lamer chicken wuss....
You know, I do really love Yahtzee and his game reviews. Even if he's horriffically bashing a game that I love he still makes me laugh so I don't mind. This week it was about gamer comics which I thought would be awesome, and it was... to a point.
So, some background, I read a webcamic called Ctrl-alt-del and I love it so, it's funny and 'gamey' but still has an actual plot with the characters. It was just 'one of the comics I read' until the other month when the writer took a real creative leap/risk. I wont spoil you, but a very serious issue occurred (which the artist had experienced himself irl so he felt he could write about it) and honestly, I thought he wrote it brilliantly, and it was, creatively, a fantastic thing to happen with the drama and proper 'story' of the comic. I really respected him for doing it.
So, the point where I began, for the first time, to seriously and completely disagree with Yahtzee was when he started to bash this comic. Not openly, but naming the afforementioned big storyline saying it makes fun of the issue and referencing in the background a comic strip called 'bntrl-balt-bel'. I just felt that it was genuinely unnecessary. I know he doesn't like a lot of stuff but was there any need to pick on it like that? Yes, I know a lot of people disagreed with the storyline but the artist justified his reasons for it very well.
Maybe I'm just a sad little person that lives in the internet but these things seem to strike a moral chord with me.
In other news! I'm planning an Edward Elric cosplay, and I'm so excited to get my sewing machine tomorrow! Shini is coming with me and after we're going to have a picnic with her dolls and my Ed figure so I'm going to do an ADIML.
May have to actually shower at Shini's as I HAVE NO HOT WATER....AGAIN!!! Stupid student halls seriously, it's so stupid every few days I don't have any hot water and I'm getting sick of it. wtf am I paying £107 a week for?

My sleeping patterns are FUCKED. It's 4.10am and I'm still not asleep. It's been like this for about a week now. I think the problem is that work has no jobs for me atm, I'm not really doing anything during the day so I'm not getting tired. ANYHOOS, I'm in my flat by myself at the minute and have been for about a month now. What I didn't know was my flatmate Richie was back in Bristol but was staying somewhere else. He came back here at about 2.30am and scared the SHIT out of me. I was on the phone to darkenglishrose at the time. It went like this:
Me: oh my god I just heard a door!
Shini: Are you home alone?
Me: Yes and nobody can get in here
Shini: ....
Me:....
Shini: Right, go see, stay on the phone to me and if it's an axe murderer I'll... do... something (she lives a 45 minute walk away from me, so really she can do fuck all :P)
Me: *goes out bedroom door* Heelloooooo?
Flat: ......
Me: Hello? eep.
Flat: *muffled voice*
Me: Who's here?
Richie: *Comes out his room* Hiya!
Me: WTF you scared the shit out of me!
Richie: Sorry, did I wake you up?
We proceed to talk about him getting chucked out at home so coming back and our crappy flatmate and the fact that nobody else is here.
As I said, my sleeping pattern is absolutely fucked and I've hit the I'm retarded now part of tired as shown here talking on msn and watching tv
Shini-chan. says: I can't decide what to do for Haru!
Shini-chan. says: And also I have to choose an outfit for tomorrow night!
Kiki: gasp
Kiki: I think I've hit the lack of sleep=retarded now
Shini-chan. says: LOL
Kiki: aaaaw I've just seen baby goats climb all over the adult one like "You are my mountain!" *falls off*
Shini-chan. says: LOL
Kiki: It's so cute!
Ok I have to stop this now otherwise I'll just keep going and fill your Flist with Bollocks! I wish I was drunk, then it would explain the crap I'm talking but nooooooo.

Anyhoos, I entered a contest on Deviantart for reinventing yourself as a Wammy House detective from Death Note and I wanted to share it with you! I love this photo I really do and digiguy_online helped me and did the photography and editing.

Motteke! Sailor Fuku - Aya Hirano |
] |
So... It occurs to me that over the past... month... or so I've done three cosplays but not really said anything about them. Plus I'm bored.
Well, the three costume's I've completed and worn are Honey-Sempai from Ouran High School Host Club, Haruhi Suzumiya from the Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya and A Shadow Heartless from Kingdom Hearts. Haruhi was for Bristol Comic Con and Honey and the Heartless were for London May Expo.
( Cosplay cut )
Of course, when in cosplay it's a prime time to have fun with the characters... mainly crack. We got some awesome photos but I'd kill your bandwidth if I put them all on so here's a few.
( Crack cut )
There was so much more crack, with Kyouya/Honey yaoi, Honey being glomped by Death Note's Matt, Sora riding his keyblade, Kingdom Hearts and Ouran Caramelldansens... HELL JUST COME WITH NEXT TIME!
Cosplays in the works: Miyuki-san from Lucky Star in cheerleader uniform, Lloyd from Code Geass and one of the Ouran twins as the Cheshire cat from the Alice in Wonderland episode.

I went to London this weekend, it was awesome! We got a coach at about 9am (We being myself and various members of anime soc including darkenglishrose and zaros) Shini and I sat at the back and as it was a National Express people like Si were stuck at the front so we used PictoChat on our DS-s to sort out the hotel rooms XD then the three of us played a big game of Elite Beat Agents via wireless. I sucked as I've never played before but now I must own it!!!
Anyhoos, I spent far too much time on the tube this weekend, it's silly. Especially dressed as a Shadow Heartless and then as Honey-Sempai, I'll post photos when I can grab some as my camera is a bit crap and I was too busy running around everywhere.
My Heartless cosplay was quite popular, I didn't see another one all weekend, was quite pleased. I kept getting asked for pictures with Shini's Roxas and Andy's Sora. Also, tube with two keyblades and a struggle bat is a bit difficult. We donated my struggle bat to a Hayner cosplayer on the second day as he didn't have a proper one and we couldn't be assed to take it all the way back anyway. We made him really happy :D
The second day we had an Ouran picnic in the Expo centre, I gave out cupcakes as Honey-Sempai ^_^ It was fun, we ran after cosplayers we liked with Si's Tamaki roses.
I finally got to meet secret_windows after god knows how long of talking on the internet, seriously it's been years. She was dressed as Jenova from FFVII and then Matt from Death Note. She was win, seriously.
I'd go on forever about this weekend if I could but my hand wrecks now. IT WAS JUST AWESOME and I'm really fuckin tired *passes out*

IT WAS WIN! I'd do a proper con report like Shini does but I'm shit, so there.
I went to Comic Con yesterday with some Soc memebers and it was so much fun it was silly. I'm glad I made sure I only took out £30 for the con that morning otherwise I'd have spent my rent. There are some awesome pictures over at darkenglishrose my camera is Shitty McShiterson so I didn't take it. There's some of the cosplayers at the con and me in my Haruhi Suzumiya cosplay. Shini was Euphemia Li Britiannia from Code Geass so we were running around saying "well, I'm an Emperial Princess and she's *ponts to me* God. So yeah.." and she asked the Storm Troopers if they'd like to switch from their empire to hers.
( Piccies of things I bought! )
It was a really fun day, met some randomly fun people, there was a Kadaj cosplayer who was really sweet, if quite timid. and she said she really hoped to see us at London Expo. We met a Roy Mustang who was dark_squall. Our cosplays consisted of Me as Haruhi Suzumiya, darkenglishrose as Euphemia Li Britannia, Andy as Suzaku Kururugi also from Geass, Sam (andy's lil bro) as Alkiora (no idea how to spell it) from Bleach, Mart as Reno from FFVII, Chibi as Link from Legend of Zelda (she made the sheild and master sword too, Chibi is win) Liz was Seras Victoria from Hellsing and Jack was... something to do with her as I don't really know he carried her MASSIVE gun most of the time. it was so big we could find them by looking above the stalls for the gun top ^_^;;
The Storm Troopers were a bit uppity, Liz walked passed them and just said. "That's a really small gun." LOL
Oh, and it was so hot I have killed my body spray. May it rest in peace with Mart's Reno Mullet (he got rid of it D: ) I got my OTP a present of a Batman statue, which is awesome. To get it though i had to do the treasure hunt which was to find all the different coloured plushie bears which were around the hall on the stalls. It took me about two or three hours to get them all! I kept running around "I'm on a bear hunt again!" then returning to Cosplay Corner as I named where we all sat down, to have a rest. OTP LOVES me now btw
Anyhoos, afterwards Shini and I went to McDonalds to meet up with Mike and eat, then we went back hers where we met the others and we sat and watched Doctor Who. THEN we went to the cinema to see Iron Man WHICH IS AWESOME!!! I want a pet droid thingy that he has. If you haven't seen it go see it!!
So, that was the most fun and most geekiest day of my life.
Awesome.

Another meme! I keep getting bored. I currently have a Death note vid loading on Youtube as someone posted about them finaly having Near and Mello in the dub and the voices went well. It occurred to me I hadn't hear L's voice! Of what I've seen so far the Death Note dub has been quite sucessful but it's not what Death Note IS to me, as I watched all the subs before the dub had even come out. It's strange that whatever format you first watch an anime, that's how the characters ARE to you in your brain... or maybe it's just me *shrugs*
In other news! My gamepad game so I can play Legend of Zelda Ocarina of time! So yeah, that's my weekend gone, what Assignments? oh... yeah.
I went Ice Skating yesterday with darkenglishrose and two other Society members. It was awesome! We were justing skating in massive circle, stopping to dance every now and again singing old anime theme tunes really loudly (including Pokemon and pokemon Johto) We entertained the masses. Well, Shini and I were doing the singing, Mike just looked slightly scared but we held onto him so he couldn't skate away XD
You know what, L's voice is quite good! and he pronounces Kira properly. I still prefer the japanese though ^^

I'm pissed at people. If you hate the rant posts then tonight this is not the journal for you I'm afraid.
I'm back from the Czech Republic and a glorious two weeks with my OTP. Before I left I asked one thing of his flatmate, I even pulled them aside to talk to them about it "Please don't leave him alone too much after I've left" there's nothing worse then after you've spent some time with your other half than having to sit in your previously two person bedroom alone. I was assured that my OTP would be looked after and a fuss made over him etc etc. did they keep their word?
The Fuck they did.
I left nearly a week ago and he's been left alone nearly the entire time. I'm not talking about someone watching him 24 hours a day just be in the same room when you're both home or something. Go get coffee, anything to take his mind off things. This was the one thing I had to be assured of so I could leave without having a worry that he wouldn't be ok. Another problem with it, is I like these people, they were fine with my moving into their flat (now my official home even though I'm never there enough)I really did like them but I now know that I can't trust their word.
This has all really upset me. The fact that someone I care about with every fibre of my being is being treated like that and there's nothing I can do about it. He's just been left in his own misery. They're supposed to be his best friends.
Saying "I miss you" over a video message just isn't enough. It's times like these when I hate the distance the most, when I feel so helpless to do the simplest of things like cheer him up with a hug or even just spend time with him. It really does break my heart sometimes.
On top of all this, my mother is very ill. She's housebound and hooked up to a 24 hour oxygen machine. Again I'm helpless to do anything as although I'm back at my parent's now I'm in Bristol most of the time which is 4 hours away. I'm going back on Monday and I've got so much work I can't even think about it. I've got a presentation on Thursday where I'm supposed to have done it all with a partner, said partner has disappeared off the face of the Earth and I'm left doing two people's work. It has to run for 10 minutes and I've got 4 slides... Mum has strictly ordered me to not let my university work suffer. But right now it's the last thing I'm thinking about.
Oh, and I returned to the hospital. It seems that the thing on my brain scan that everyone thought was a nice tumour, and thus I've had some painful follow up tests, might have just been a fault in the scan. Good news I know, some of those tests were hell though and they were for nothing.
I'm afraid my faith in the human race has ebbed away tonight, I do hope it doesn't rub off on you.

I'm off to the Czech Republic again on Monday! woot! Two weeks with my OTP ^^ *is happies* ... I really should attempt to... you know... pack at some point... meh. That's what the night before is for!! Even though I'm going to have to get up at about 4.30 to go get the train for 6am *is not so happies*
Went into main Bristol to pop to work and get Czech monies today. On the way back it was only me on the university bus (Being miiiiiles away from anywhere my uni has a bus service... it's shit but hey it's free..ish) the driver pulled over and said "do you mind if I just go the shop?" I wasn't in a rush to get back to my flat.. had my iPod so I said go for it. He must have been dying for a drink.
Anyhoos, what my minor problem was, he'd left me, alone in the bus, with the keys in, and the engine running... I've never had to resist temptation so hard in my life... lets ignore the fact I can't even drive a car let alone a bus and sometimes I can't even walk sufficiently *see previous post of walking into signpost* so if I had done what that little psycho in my mind wanted me to, I'd get 100 yards from where I was and be smashed into something in some amusing manner... and I can't even afford to do the cosplays I'm doing I'd never manage bus repairs.
Speaking of cosplays! I've finally decided!! I am cosplaying Honey from Ouran ^^ and a Shadow Heartless from KH. My president pointed out I'm going to be chased by overzealous cosplayers but I have my own Roxas and Sora to fend them off! Hurrah! And I'm actually making them... I've never mande clothes in my life... But we shall see what happens!! ^^
Also, I've designed the most perfect AkuRoku tattoo and now I really want it... my OTP doesn't have to know what VIIXIII means right??

Those of you how have watched me for long enough know that I'm the completely most crappest person for finishing games yes? The only ones I've completed in my entire life being Zelda Twilight Princess and Phantom hourglass. Well, I actually did it. After well over a year I have finished Kingdom Hearts II
It was the single most saddest moment of my life!!!
It's ironic really, I bought the game in Bristol when I was looking at my university, deciding to come here or not, and here, at said university, is where I finished the game. There were a lot of commas in that sentence... I like commas, , , , , ,
Now being the KHII veteran that I am I have shamelessly thrown myself into the fandom (including starting a new game JUST to see Roxas again and the fact I'd forgotten half the plot when I continued my game)It's rare for me to have a character that I ship two pairings for but I cannot decide which Axel pairing I like best. Axel and Roxas are adorable and I love them both, but I also love Demyx because I'm a massive geek and I find him really funny.
But what the fuck, Axel can just have both and be a whore :D
We had a soc social last night which was awesome and I'm still tired from. We had two hours of Karaoke with myself and Adam taking charge of the song... machine thing. We kept throwing a random song in just to throw everyone... like Nellie the Elephant XD
Then we moved to bars!! darkenglishrose and the famous Chibi joined us which was exciting! Go friend her for she is lolcakes with awesomesauce We all walked over to beerkeller (heavy metal!! YAY!) all of us holding hands. We were a massively long chain of Anime peoples. I think we scared Bristol. It was awesome!! Unfortunately I couldn't last too long as I'd been in work yesterday morning, then went straight to a lecture and then straight out so I'd hit my limit by 1AM. I did get on stage and mosh it up with Hal for a bit! LOL.
Anyhoos, everyone's buggered off home for Easter so I'm in my flat by myselfs so OFF TO MY SHIPPINGS!!!! *Hugs Demyx/Axel/Roxas*

I'm updating in a relatively short space of time!! I assure you that it is, indeed, not the apocolypse.
I'm at home at the min. It's not my easter hols, though I wish it was. I had to come home for a hospital appointment were I was promptly prodded SEVERAL times with sharp things!! I currently count, 5 needle holes in me. 4 of which are bruising quite spectacularly. It seems I have crappy veins (my one good one popped after deciding I'd had too many blood tests at which it commited veinicide) and tough skin, a needle's best friend. woot for me. Also I had a tap thing in the back of my hand as I needed blood tests in certain time frames. But the vein they'd managed to get it in went "OMFG INVADORZ!" and clotted around the damn thing. At least we know my external immune system works -_-
Anime Soc are having cosplay karaoke on friday which will be awesome as Mum's let me borrow her 'cancer wig' from when she had chemo, which is blonde so now my Misa cosplay will be better. I iz well excited.
Tomorrow ketsi_aiita_n and myself are going to Liverpool. There shall be craziness as I haven't seen her since September. :D
I need to go now as too much typing is killing my wrists with all these bruised holes in me. Plus I think I heard mum say pizza...

Remember that Anime Society I keep talking about? How I heart it so? I'm freaking SECRETARY of it next year!! KIKI FTW!
It's quite amusing, our future president is a friend of mine, he can be quite unruly. His campaign quote was "When I'm incharge all the girls will wear miniskirts!" Ala, Roy Mustang. It seems I'm Hawkeye then o_O which I guess works, as I smack him up the head and tell him to STFU. Which I'm sure Hawkeye does when nobody is looking.
Btw, for interest my campaign was "I'm little, I'm cute. I'm Otaku to boot!" Which ketsi_aiita_n gave me in all her usefulness!
I'm going home tomorrow. I've got another hospital appointment on Friday morning, to check all my hormones are being released properly from my brain or something or other. Two hours of being bored and prodded I know that.
At least I have Pokemon diamond for the journey ^_^ I've been playing that game constantly for nearly two weeks. I'm off to the Elite Four! Woot!
I really should get to my Forensic Biology lab write up, but I so can't be bothered! argh... hmm it's either that or the art trade I'm working on. I'm drawing Darien from Sailor Moon, that is, when I start it :P

...and now my head really fucking hurts... It was a low sign post too, especially to hit my head... I'm going to blame the shine of the sun in an odd part of my eye for the reason I walked directly into it at relative speed. I'm not just a dumbass... really.
Anyhoos. Today was the REfresher's fair... wtf.. which barely anyone knew about. Basically it was another chance for the sports and societies to show themselves and get more members. Most of the people there, were FROM the sports and societies... yeah... I was helping to man the Anime table though. We had one little square table for all our stuff (dvds manga figures. Fma tin SIGNED by VIC omfg I hate our president he has the coolest things) but we had to share it with our student paper Western Eye as our president was the head of photography.
There was this Capiera or something Soc that didn't show up, so we stealthy bumped the Arab soc next to us up one table and commondeered that one for the newspaper. Then after a bit we realised that the Arab Soc girl wasn't coming back (she left ages before we 'bumped' her up)so we took her table too!
TABLE CONQUEST FTW!!!
It was fun. There was a fair few of us there so it looked like our table was popular :D even though it was all the members... I got to break out my Misa cosplay!! I had to go straight to the stall from my practical so I went to Genetics all 'Death Noted' up. Was quite awesome. After, we went to our weekly meeting (which I'd actually never bothered to go to before... oops) watched 2 FMA eps, 1 Oran Host Club (which is my new thing and now must watch ALL of) and 1 The Melancholy of H-something or other. When I can be bothered to find out the whole name I'll tell you! sorry, blame the head.
AND I FINALLY KILLED THE BASTARD BOSS THAT KEPT KILLING ME IN FINAL FANTASY III!!! Now, if I could just kill bloody Xaldin in Kingdom Hearts 2 I'd be the happiest bunny there is...

Seriously, go see it. If you don't like loads of blood... then get over it because it's such an awesome film it's worth sitting through. It's a Musical Serial killer movie! lol!
Forensic Science Students really shouldn't go see Blood-filled movies. We've just learnt a new skill of analysing blood patterns and spatter... and we like to use it.
Also Alan Rickman was great in it... and Johnny Depp sings... and he's good at it too!
Anyhoos, Thanks for the cosplay ideas now I need to Draw my OTP something for his birthday, he doesn't let me buy him anything. Something videogame related? Help?
