My Bio
Hello everyone !~ I never know what to put for these darn things. I'm quite all over the place with things i enjoy doing. I watch anime, read manga, play video games, bass and sew. I draw occasionally but i dont always keep up with it. I'm a pretty shy person irl especially around girls, so i tend to hang around with more guys than chicks. A friend of mine introduced me to anime when i was around 16/17 ish and that was Cowboy bebop. I started channeling alot of Spike spiegel into how i talked and acted (as weeby as this all sounds) because i never knew how to stand up for myself. My home life was all sorts of stupid and i was always such a scaredy cat. I really admired Spike's character because how he handled himself and some situations. I was changing alot during this time in general but this show, as a whole, completely pushed me. I really needed someone to look up to even if it was a cartoon character. It helped change me into who i am now. My husband is also the driving force behind alot of what i do. He's helped me through alot of things and has been there to support me no matter what. I am entirely grateful to have him in my life.
The sewing hobby took me quite a while to get into. My mom pushed me to take that and foods class during high school. i hated it then but looking back it now, it was a good idea. I'm completely self taught with alot of it and i'll still be learning from here on out. I made a cloak when i got out of high school and then after that didnt make anything til probably 2007. I made my husband a V for Vendetta jacket (very simple) in like 3 days and it wasnt that great. He was pleased as punch with it but ever since then i never want to make something with that short of notice. I feel like my quality suffers. In 2010 i started working on my Silent hill 2 nurse outfit and had no idea it would be so well received. I just never anticipated anything when i made it. I just made it for fun and because i wanted to see if i could do it. I can't believe i've finished my dream costume now, Lulu from final fantasy X, and it's down to just wearing it at a convention.
I've had alot going on in my family life and i want to thank everyone on here, facebook, and any of my friends that see me daily for being there for me. Hopefully things get better and not worse. I know i probably sound like a complete crab but really, it's just me letting off some steam. Sorry if it isn't appropriate, i just need an outlet and this place helps. So thank you again to those of you who read/comment on anything. I really do appreciate it.

Little bit of backstory for what's been going on lately: In Sept of 2014, I joined a local anime convention to help staff. I wasn't sure what I was getting myself into but I knew that this might be a good fit for me. I was slightly hesitant because I didn't have much confidence in myself. Was this something I was ready to handle? Would I enjoy it? Would I hate going to cons after being involved with this? After only 3 months of being in the convention under guest relations staff, I ended up receiving Head of Guest relations. I always enjoyed voice actors but never in my wildest dreams would I expect to be here where I am now. I still hold

Weee! Belt is done for the most part. Need to give it a little wear and tear, also need to add some of the symbols. I also bought the wig, should be getting it tomorrow. Sheath i made but may or may not be too small for the sword now. I had to go back and make a second sword since i was working with celluclay. I did the whole expanding foam thing, covered with masking tape, paper mached with paper squares, and then coat with a paper mache powder and wallpaper paste powder. Only problem is that i used Celluclay instead of just a regular paper mache powder and i didn't have the wallpaper paste powder, i had some form of wallpaper paste. It stil

So far all i have left are as follows: -belt -sheath -sword -buying the wig Not much! I'm glad i'm down to just those portions and nothing too extreme. My goal was to finish this costume before summer ended or at least have the basics done and i could go in and detail later. I thought the sword was going to be the hardest but these deer bones are proving hella interesting/difficult at the same time. I'm having fun with it, just wasn't entirely sure how to go about soaking these bones since i wanted them to keep their original color. They stunk to high heaven. I just didnt want the stink/bacteria following me around con. Nothx. I'll  pass
