I dropped out of school...
General | Posted 12 years ago
Ok that was a bit dramatic; my parents took me out of the current school I'm in.
I just couldn't get my work done on time no matter how hard I tried. But you know what? I know what my problem is now.
People have always joked around about me being a perfectionist and I laughed along with them thinking, "I really can be at times huh? X3" but...
I really am. Like, holy shit I am such a perfectionist it is insane. I've read through all of the symptoms and it's like I'm reading a description of myself.
vvvv I can concur with EVERYTHING in this article vvvv
http://stress.about.com/od/understa.....fectionist.htm
It's good to know I'm not the only one! I am going to start another school to get a fresh new beginning. I'm going to try and conquer this stupid thing in my head.
WOO TEAM TACO! LET'S DO IT!!!
Thank you so much for reading <3 I love you guys to death!

I don't understand inflatables?
General | Posted 12 years ago
Can somebody please explain to me why people are so fond of them?
I mean, I'm not judging or anything I just don't understand the appeal.
Is it kind of like having stuffed animals just... inflatable ones?
But then there is the fetish side which I also can't quite wrap my mind around...
TMI Teusday!
General | Posted 12 years agoI haven't done this in a while! Ask whatcha want peeps :3Zaphod fursuit head is almost done!!!
General | Posted 12 years ago
I AM SO EXCITED!!! Zaphod's fur is all glued done and already shaven and EVERYTHING other than his eyes and neck are DONE!
I haven't had my phone so I can't show ya'll any pics ;A; The styrene for the eyes is taking FOREVER to get to my house and that's what I'm waiting on.
I CAN'T WAIT TO SHOW YOU ALL!!! Zaphod is totally going to TFF with me as a partial <3
So he got what he wanted... [vent update]
General | Posted 12 years agoThis journal is an update on this one: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/5470950/
He got it. He got the Singer. I asked my dad if there was anything that could be done but sadly the answer was 'no'. It turns out that he had actually almost gotten into a physical fight with another family member over some other thing he hogged, and multiple other people are upset over other things he also got as well. It's very upsetting for me but I still have the satisfying knowledge that my great grandmother and I had sewing in common which is a very special thing for me. I might end up buying a similar machine to what she had, but for now I have other projects to work on. Thank you guys for your support <3 I really appreciate all of you!
I can't stand this... [sort of a vent]
General | Posted 12 years agoOk so some of you may remember that my great grandmother recently passed away. Well my family is going through my great grandparents' house now and I saw an antique Singer sewing machine which belonged to her, one with the cabinet and the manual treadle. Naturally I saw it and thought, "Wow! I hope that's going to a good home.." but what I was troubled to find is that it isn't. Nope. It's going to the dickhead of the family who is male, doesn't sew, and only cares about money. My great grandmother's sewing machine is going to be sold by of his greedy ass. He saw it first and he called dibs because it just looked like something rare and expensive. I put in a word with my grandfather about me wanting to possibly be in possession of it (ya know, because I FUCKING SEW) but that's all I really can do. I think it would be so special if I were to use the same machine the my great grandmother used. I mean, It's a part of my family's history! It's something she and I had in common and I'm literally to only one who sews in the family so it would only make sense right? Idk guys I just can't stand people like that....
Whew that felt good to let it out! I'm sorry, I don't normally vent.

General | Posted 12 years ago
WOO!!! My dad finally booked the hotel for TFF! I'm soooo excited! Now, this doesn't ENTIRELY mean I'll be going but it's a good step in that direction. If I make it we will be staying at the Courtyard Marriott next door because the main hotel is sold out. That is officially where the overflow is going, so I should end up meeting some people at the hotel :3 CAN YOU TELL I'M EXCITED?!?! FIRST CONVENTION EVERRR seriously I haven't even been to an anime con or anything... Who all is going? I hope to see some of you there!
Ugh I'm so closeee
General | Posted 12 years ago
I'm so close to being finished with Zaphod's head ;3; but I can't finish because I don't have enough money to buy the rest of the materials... like, $15-$20 worth I'm not even kidding. I only need plastic for the eyes and black felt. he is completely shaven except for the ear and just needs his neck. The tongue is super adorable though :D it's a baby blue forked tongue and omg it works with him so well! I wish I could take picture for ya'll but my phone got taken away... -w- ya. So once I'm done shving the head and adding the neck fur all I can work on are the paws. I shall keep ya'll informed >w>

Character Descriptions!
General | Posted 12 years agoTaco Character Description:
Taco is a black and white feral cat with blue eyes. His breed is not identifiable with any existing breeds, but his anatomical make-up is closer to that of a house cat. Taco is a curious and inquisitive cat who is naturally very kind-hearted. When he sometimes becomes frightened, concerned, or unsure, his little friend, Paco, is always there for him. The two are never seen apart.
Paco Character Description:
Paco is a little yellow, green, and blue pinata that is always accompanying Taco. Paco acts very big and tough even though he is small, and he hates it when someone makes fun of his size. He is drawn to adventure and is much more impatient than Taco. Whenever Taco needs any kind of moral support, Paco is always there to lend some help. Paco is also acts as Taco’s conscience at times.
Zaphod Character Description:
Zaphod is a good friend of Taco and Paco. His species is a Wisp which is a sort of ferret/rat/weasel mix. He is very athletic and acts like a big-shot. Zaphod will brag about things that he has done in the past. Not ever passing up an opportunity to prove his excellence, he will sprint to the front lines of any battle and try his very hardest. He can sometimes be blunt, but he won’t intentionally hurt anyone’s feelings. Even being slightly stuck-up though, Zaphod is one of the best and most loyal friends anyone could ask for.
Sekkyoku and Hazukashii’s Brief Background:
These twins, Sekkyoku and Hazukashii, were bullied when they were younger and, as they they grew, it had an affect on them. Sekkyoku herself became a bully so that she wouldn’t be subjected to the same cruelty again because of her weakness. Hazukashii, on the other hand, became extremely soft-spoken and allowed herself to be pushed around while not thinking much about it anymore. Sekkyoku forces Hazukashii to become involved in plots to bully and dominate others. Sekkyoku believes that she should show everyone why it as a mistake to put the twins down, but Hazukashii just wants her sister to go back to her old, normal self. Hazukashii will never leave her sister though, because she knows that it would mentally crush Sekkyoku. Instead, she is trying to gradually show Sekkyoku why what she is doing is improper.
Sekkyoku Character Description:
Sekkyoku is a deep red colored dragon with light blue eyes. Her name literally means “aggressive” in Japanese and she lives up to the name! She is always bullying her twin sister, Hazukashii, and forces her to do mean things against her will. While it is seen by most people that Sekkyoku treats Hazukashii more like an item rather than her sister, she will in an instant become very protective of her sister because Hazukashii the closest thing she has to a real friend.
Hazukashii Character Description:
Hazukashii is a light blue dragon with deep red eyes. Her name literally means “shy” in Japanese and she, like her sister, lives up to the name. She is soft spoken and loving towards her sister and other living creatures in general.
