Well, hello again. I know its been a long while since the last time I updated my journal. Where do I start first... I guess I'll start with my FORMER roommates. Yes, I said former. I moved out due to drama and break up issues. They hate me now because I'm "A bad influence.." Oh well. I have grown up and matured since then... not the same chipper and happy-go-lucky as I once was but ehh... probably for the better.

Lets see, I am living back at home in my mom's old trailer, though I won't be for long. Soon I'll be leaving the state all together and headed for the North! Connecticut here I come! I know its not the most exciting state, but hey.. I don't want to be directly in a big big city yet. I'll have trouble adjusting to just visiting New York City or Boston or even Salem. I'm ready to leave... but I can't go just yet... gotta last till late January first. It won't be long!

More updates! I am soon going to be starting on ACII Ezio! Why ACII when there are plenty other Garbs I can do? Basically.. I've using it as a training method for leather work and embroidery. It will be HIGHLY detailed being that I'm really big on that stuff. I have practically everything for the doublet just not the lace yet! So, I'll be working on that up until I leave. I would LIKE to have it finished by then... but I doubt I'd be able to afford the leather. xD.

Other than that... I have a Tumblr now that is for rp? Bartender-Desmond... Yup. XD Anyways... toodles!

You guys have seen my cosplays and most of you who have seen them have liked them. At cons, for characters everyone knows, they all find them amazing and ask the same question "Where did you get it!?" When I answer "I made them..." They just give me the most amazed look. Well people, I am not lying in the least. I've made all of my cosplay... Mind you, some of them I did have to piece together by going to different stores in order to finish them. A great example of that is Ryou Bakura. Since his was so simple, I didn't bother with making him from scratch but instead went out and bought the pieces. And, guess what, its still a popular cosplay!

You don't know how many people just stare at you in admiration if you tell someone you made your cosplays. The feeling is amazing when they admire your work and just compliment you left and right. Love that feeling. Ever since then, I've had this... silent goal to make all my cosplay... even if I do cheat and go out to buy some of the pieces in store just so I don't have to make it. Mind you, I can still make those centain pieces, I just get lazy as everyone else. xP Still, it makes me feel awesome!

Why am I saying all this? Well, I have found myself in a bit of a financial crisis... and because of this, I need some way to make money in order to make ends meet. So, (And yes, I am very new to this so give me a break if I get something wrong x.x) I'm opening up for commissions. Whoopee!

Now, there are some cosplay I may not be able to make, and I will inform you of this if I can't. I will try my hardest though, and if I start and I know I won't be able to do something... I will let you know.

I can give you guys a few examples of what I can't do(Yet!!):
Leatherwork (SADFACE! I wish I knew how...)
Armor (Ditto. TT-TT)
Embroidery (I will soon learn how to do this.)

If there are other things, I'll add them to the list above and let you know.

I will be posting up pictures of my cosplay I have already finished. There are a few on here are already, I'm wearing them. I will lay them out later to take better pictures of them for you guys to get a better look. If you look on my actual DeviantArt page, it'll have a list of cosplay I have finished and others I have in process. As I get each done they will be added to the finished. Those, mind you, are my personal collection. If you want your own, I will have to make it from scratch. ^-^ I hope that gives you guys a good starter list.

I WILL MAKE COSPLAY THAT ISN'T ON THAT LIST! Just give me the character, the subject (where the character came from), and pictures of it!!! PLEASE PEOPLE! PICTURES ARE IMPORTANT!

I will figure out payments later.... but I do know that you guys will be paying for the supplies, labor, and shipping. This will vary due to the complexity of the cosplay. Sorry, if it gets a bit expensive. x.x;;

If I knew how to use PayPal... that's what I would use. I'll probably have to ask around on that and how it works. -Shrug.-

Yes, I know its a little early for Christmas but STILL! It FEELS like Christmas to me. I FINISHED MY SEMESTER AND PASSED!!!!!!! That's why I'm celebrating all throughout the next month! I have a new list of things to do before Spring semester starts. ^-^ I'll feel very accomplished when I finally get all done.

Resurrection Chapter 3!!!
Thiefshipping Fanart piece


Seem like a lot? You have no idea. x.x;; XD But I'll try. That's all that matters. -Nodnod.-

o.o I just want to say to everyone.... THANK YOU ALL SO VERY MUCH! I've been on deviantart for 2 years now and I didn't think I'd ever get this many views. -Just dies!- Its a serious achievement for me. Then again, its also sorta my fault. Haven't really made much effort in the past, but apparently my more present pictures are doing the trick.

Alright!! To start off! I recently submitted two chapters to a random fanfic idea I had. Lately, I've been on a major Yu-Gi-Oh kick. Moved on from my KH fandom and backed up to my childhood. YU-GI-OH IS WANT INTRODUCED ME TO ANIME IN THE FIRST PLACE! My FIRST anime EVER! Still, I love it so. I'll admit, I'm not much for the new series... I stick more to the original story with the Egyptology laced in it. (Whodoesn'tlikeahotPharaohandThiefKing...Imeanseriouslypeople!)

Back to the chapters, I am pleasantly surprised to see that people are actually liking it. Of course, I haven't wrote a fanfiction in years so.... be patient with me. I probably won't update for "Resurrection" but once a month, if lucky, every few weeks.... COLLEGE IS A BITCH.

Also, I recently submitted a doodle (yes, a doodle) of Ryou holding Akefia's, AKA Thief King Bakura, red robe. I dunno about you, but I thought it turned out cute. It was my dabble with Photoshop coloring. I didn't think it was going to turn out that good and apparently all of you liked it. ^-^ I just have'ta say thanks! It makes me feel all tingly!! ^-^

FUTURE PROJECTS
Resurrection Chapter 3 - Obviously
Resurrection Doujinshii - Chapter 1
Akefia/Ryou (Gemshipping) picture - Its a secret!!


Future Dabbles:
Atem
Yugi
Malik
Marik

Yes, I have to continually draw them before I can master them. I've never been very good at drawing from my head, so this is all amazing to me. Plus, I'm a Visual Art - Animation & Computer Art major! I'm going to practice at that cause I plan on either becoming a video game designer or an anime/manga artist! (WISH ME LUCK! 8D)

That's about it for now, getting back to coloring my Gemshipping picture. (Heehee!) ^-^ See ya!

Yo DeviantArt! Thought I might as well put up the members I have so far in Simple Confusion. I may not have everyone on here yet, but I'll gradually get everyone. If not? Well... I dunno then. xD Annnnyways.... Members!
