Hush, Love, Don't cry,
It'll be alright,
Hold me close,
As I administer the dose,
Listen to my lullaby of lies.

So...Just a quick update. I'm going home either today or tomorrow, meaning I won't be on for a bit. I'll be home for a whole week! Ugh...I don't know if I can survive an entire week with no internet...Though, I'm taking my computer home anyways. Maybe I can work on a new AMV? Or perhaps I could color that lineart I did way back in spring...
My job situation changed. I went into the Financial Aid office on June 29 (Monday) to make sure I had all the paperwork filled out so that I could start my off-campus work-study at the day care on July 1st. The woman started looking in her computer and she told me that I no longer qualified for federal work study. It's complete bullshit!! I qualified at the beginning of May!! I was so pissed off...She told me the only way I could go ahead and work at the day care was if I gave up my unsubusidized loan for the rest of summer. Of course, when I took the loan back in fall when school started, it would be $1000 less than it was before, because that was how much money I'd make working at the day care. I was trying my hardest not to cry, but the tears fell anyways. The lady told me that I could still get a job on campus, because it would only count as institutional work-study, meaning I wouldn't have to give up my loan. So I checked in the cafeteria, but the supervisor said they didn't need anyone. I had to wait to go to the housekeeping and grounds supervisor, so I went to my room and had myself a full-blown breakdown. I punched my bed a couple of times, bawled my eyes out, and bad-mouthed the government. I felt like shit because it seemed like the government didn't want to help the good, honest, hard-working American citizens...Then I went and talked to the housekeeping and grounds supervisor, and she said she had a position! That made my day TONS better! So, I get to start on July 13th.
July 15th-19th, I'm gonna be in Nebraska, visiting with Daku. I'm excited about that. Then, he's coming back home on August 8th. He's going to be glomped to death...
I have an eye doctor appointment on Monday, July 6th. I might be getting contacts! I'm excited. And a little nervous...The last time I tried to get contacts, it took the doctor forever to get one in my eye, I couldn't get the other one in my eye, and then it took forever for me to get the first one out! But I'm much better at touching my eyeball now...
Oh, I saw "Public Enemies" last night! I'm a Johnny Depp fangirl...I went with my friend, Kells...Johnny kept giving away his coats. So we kept hoping he didn't own too many, because then he would end up nekkid...I've never hated Batman so much in my life...Christian Bale plays the cop in charge of catching John Dillinger...So throughout the movie, we were just like, "Oh noes!!1 Batman, joo suckz!!1" The ending sucked, to us...There are some things that you just don't do!! And the director did one of those things...HE FUCKING KILLED JOHNNY!!!! YOU DON'T FUCKING KILL JOHNNY DEPP!!!! And then Kells's dad told us that the real John Dillinger escaped and lived out his life in California...So we were just like, "Oh, FAIL, movie director man!! FAIL!!!" Yes...
Well, that's all I have for now...Stay classy, Otakuites!

So, I've got some updates...I started a new Cosplay Guide. I'll be updating it weekly, so be sure to check it out! I've got 2 features up so far, as well as a little comical "Bad Cosplay" post. I'm really excited about this little project! I'm having a lot of fun and it's being received pretty well. Now, I admit that I'm not a "professional" cosplayer, but I've had my experiences and that's my main source of inspiration.
Speaking of cosplay, I've got a list of what I cosplay as now!
~Akasuna no Sasori (Naruto Shippuden)-Completed; appeared at A2F3 & A2F4
~Female Ranma (Ranma 1/2)-Completed; planning to appear at A2F5 & A-kon 21
~Excel (Excel Saga)-Nearly complete (missing the jacket); planning to appear at A-kon 21
~Inorganic Angel Rosiel (Angel Sanctuary)-Halfway complete (missing the nightgown; wig is being bid for on eBay); planning to appear at A-kon 21
I'm excited, really. So excited. Oh, and I've started work on a new fanfiction! It's for the Jim Henson movie "Labyrinth". It's a Sarah/Jareth fic...It'll be M-rated, but I'll be posting it over on my FFN account. I mainly write one-shots...
I'm also going to be working on some new fan art. I've got two works to do for challenges on here and the rest will be to sell as prints at A2F5...I really would appreciate some suggestions of popular characters. So far, I've drawn Sakura Haruno (Naruto) and Monkey D. Luffy (One Piece). I'm also thinking about selling prints of my Shunsui and Nanao (Bleach) picture entitled "DATE MEEE!!!". I'm not so sure on that one...Anyways, please suggest popular characters for me to draw and sell as prints!!
Well, that's all for now. Stay classy, Otakuites!

Memezz!! Woot!!
Pick an OC couple and who do they belong to
1.) Kita Mogetsu (me)
2.) Tzei-Yi Aseih Yagiito
If any OC from another user is part of the couple, let the owner take this meme also. Answer truthfully to only YOUR answers, not someone elses'.
A.)Okay what your name?
Ohayou! *points to self* Mogetsu Kita desu!
B.)Who are you dating?
My partner, Tzei-Yi Aseih Yagiito!
C.)What nickname do you call him/her?
I call him Yagi, or sometimes Yagi-kun.
D.)What nickname does s/he call you?
He calls me Kita-chan, or sometimes his Eastern Goddess.
E.)What do you like about him/her?
He comes off as tough and non-social, but inside he's a teddy bear. And he's making such a good effort to understand my language!
F.)What kind of personality does s/he have?
Like I said, he comes off as tough and non-social, to most people. He's also from Egypt, and he can be a bit zealous about his religion sometimes...
G.)Does your date/mate have any pets?
Mm...He had a kitty once...Cats are his favorite.
H.)What is one thing that your date likes about you?
He likes the fact that I'm spunky. He says it's the perfect balance to his personality.
I.)Who do you think wears the pants in the relationship?
Um...I usually wear a skirt, so I guess he does...
J.)What do you do while you're together?
Well, we're usually together, unless one of us goes off on a reconnaissance mission, which can be done alone. We train together, we take down our targets together, we eat together, we sleep together, and we show--Oops! Can't say that!
K.)Has your relationship affected your life? How so?
Of course! Yagi-kun's the best thing that's ever happened to me. When we started out as regular partners, our boss warned us not to get romantically involved, but we rarely follow orders. Teehee!
L.)Do you see yourself with them in the future?
Well, we're engaged! Haha, but don't tell anyone! It's a secret...
M.)Does anyone you know object to your relationship?
Our boss says it's not good for partners to date, but he doesn't say much to us.
N.)Have people been affecting your relationship so far? How so?
Um...There's a blonde German guy named Fritz that works with us occasionally, and from the way he acts, I think he has a crush on Yagi-kun...
O.)What do you think s/he would get you for an anniversary present?
Ah...He likes to make me origami. He's actually better than me at making origami!
P.)If you separated, what would the reason have been?
I think death would be the only reason for a separation...Yagi performed this sacred soul-binding ritual with me, though, so I'm not entirely sure death would do it.
Q.)What is the image of a perfect date to you?
My favorite dates are the ones when Yagi takes me to the boardwalk and buys me sweet ice or ice cream, depending on what country we're in.
R.)What will you do if the one you love found someone else?
He won't find anybody else. He said that ritual wouldn't allow it.
S.)If another girl/boy loves your date and disses you for your date, how would you react?
Teehee! I would use my favorite technique--the Kiss of the Dragon...
T.)What do you think about the two creators that brung you and your love together?
Creators? You mean like gods or goddesses? I'm very grateful to the god or goddess who brought us together...Oh! I have to run now. Bye-bye! ~chu~

Du Hast Mich Gefragt...
Und ich hab nicht gesagt!
Mood: Bored...
Music: Rammstein "Zwitter"
So...I haven't been doing anything of much importance lately. I won't be able to start my community service until tomorrow, thanks to some recent storms. The rain flooded the room I was supposed to clean out...Water was like 2 inches deep, or more...But it should be dry enough by tomorrow. I've mainly been staying in my room, being a hermit. I've played Kingdom Hearts 2 some more...I finally got Sora woke up and in Hollow Bastion! Those damn cut scenes kill me, though...They're too long at that part...For anyone wondering, no, this is not my first time to play the game. The first time I played, I beat the game at 87% completion...This time, I'm going for 100%. Bahaha!!
Hm...I've also drawn a couple things. One drawing is for DeidaraNarutoClan's "Outside the Box" challenge. I'm excited. I drew myself falling upside down. It came out great! Surprised me...The second drawing is a gift for my Nii-san, LGA775, because he did such a wonderful job on my request. n__n The other drawing was just a quick doodle of Taicho Shunsui chasing Nanao-chan...Yeah, Bleach fan art for once! Shunsui is my favorite taicho...Because he's drunk all the time...And always chases Nanao around, asking her to go on dates with him...
I finished my FFVII: AC video! It's up on YouTube now. I'll put it at the end...I'm so proud of it! It turned out awesome!!
I got Eoin Colfer's "The Artemis Fowl Files: The Ultimate Guide To the Best-Selling Series" book in today from Amazon. Colfer's amazing. I've been following the Fowl series since I was like, 13 or so...Now I've got all six books in the series, AND the accompanying guide! I can't wait for Book 7 to come out...It should be out next year. Book 6, "The Time Paradox" ended in kind of a cliff-hanger...I won't say what happened at the end...I'll let you read it yourself, if you haven't already...But one thing did excite me...
HOLLY AND ARTEMIS KISSED!!!!
That just blew me away...I was like, "No way!! Seriously?!" Yeah...
Well, that's all I got for now. Stay classy, Otakuites!

That's right. Finished. Completed. You can stick a fork in them, because they are DONE!!

Yeah...Free time, folks...Free time...I went to Sonic with 3 of my friends (and fellow Maymester-mates) at 8:00 pm to get free root beer floats to celebrate. Sonic's giving them out until midnight...
So, you can all expect me to be on a little more frequently!
*announcer voice* "And there was much rejoicing..."
