HELL. YES!

Excuse me while I go make myself a Barbossa costume. Because Geoffrey Rush is a pimp.
Bill Nighy is too but I think I have a ways to go as a cosplayer before I can make a tentacle face. Otherwise, oh, it would be on.
And besides, I'd have an awesome hat and an undead monkey. Who wouldn't want that?
In other news, I managed to make an 82 on my Accounting Intermediate II test. Which means I have a B in that class right now. Which means I have As and Bs in all of my classes. Yessssssss! I also made a 90 on my General Business class, but I spend most of that class either playing Sudoku or reading. So I win!
Spring is here, spring is here, life is skittles and life is beer! Not really though, because spring means all sorts of lovely little things in the air, which means my allergies are acting up. Bah. To top it all off, I HATE these daily contacts, I'd like to stab them in the face, and I'd like my other ones. So yay!
In other, other news, I get to ride the train on Saturday. *snicker* Which means no Cosplay Day Out. Very sad, but at this point, I don't really have any costumes that need photos of (well, Alice does, but she's craptacular, and I'm kinda mad at myself for bringing her down here, because she only takes up space). Plus, if I go, that may mean that Dave wants to go, and I'd need someone else in the car with me for the two hours that it takes to go to Humble. I love Dave and whatnot, but lately, I've been wanting to kill him more than hang out with him. He also needs to shave. (The grizzly man look does not look good on him, I'm sorry to say.) So, sorry to anyone that was expecting me!
I've also decided that I will be going to A-kon. Most likely, I will be going solo, as my sister's graduation is that Friday, and family is coming down. That said, I'll only be at A-kon most of Friday, missing opening ceremonies to go to her graduation, then returning that night. I'll probably head home Saturday afternoon for the graduation party. Amy's decided that she most likely won't cosplay this year, so the only costumes that will make an appearance for me will be Tamaki/Honey-chan, and Toph. So, Timeless River Donald and Goofy will be at AnimeFEST, and maybe Oni-con. I'm sad that we won't be our usual cosplay duo, but this is my sister's weekend, and I'm trying my best to accomodate both A-kon and family time. (Because I'll be stuck in summer school and missing out on the great Texas migration to AX *sadness*.)
On other cosplay stuff, I've decided that Easter weekend will be my Super Awesome Cosplay Weekend. Since I'm probably going to work through that weekend, and most of SFA will be gone, it's time to bust out some photography and costume work. I'm hoping to at least finish most of Toph, and maybe scour through some thrift stores for Wonderland! Honey-chan pieces. I'm going to also redo Honey-chan's wig, just because I got some tips from Crystal, and maybe even finally get Flower Card's wig all dyed up. I'm out of FC makeup right now, but I'd love to do a CCS photoshoot with people, since I know a bunch of DFW peeps are going to bust out them for A-kon. Maybe during one of my rare weekends home? We'll see. Maybe I can even get my sister into a costume. Another reason why I'm doing it during Easter is that less people around, so I can maybe head out to the Azalea trails for some pictures. It seems like SFA has some perfect settings for Ouran cosplay, and much more. I managed to take a couple shots today of some scenery, and there's also some from last year over at my Facebook.

Although I do sometimes complain about Naca-nowhere, the one thing I love about this place is the scenery, especially around fall and spring. So I'm doing my routine of carrying my camera around, to catch pictures of the flowers. I tried to get some pictures of the tulips around the Alumni Center, but because of the construction, no dice. Ah, well.
I have an Eco Stats test tomorrow. Bah. But tomorrow is also Samantha's birthday extravanganza. Booze and karaoke, and I just made a B on a test I totally failed. Hells, yeah! Sounds like a recipe for fun.
Well, I'm off for a short nap, then studying, Ugly Betty, and Grey's Anatomy.
Until we meet again,
Tahiti
EDIT:
My only worry lately is about the biopsy I had done a few weeks ago. I went in yesterday to get the stitches out (which is good because they were starting to drive me crazy), and while the doctor informed me that the preliminary tests showed no sign of cancer, there were still some "atypical cells" and they sent it off to Dallas for more testing. So I'm supposed to know something by the end of this week or the beginning of the next. While the whole "no sign of cancer" does cheer me up, the whole "we had to send it to Dallas to see wtf these guys were doing here."
Bah, I spent most of yesterday in a gloom before the appointment, and now I'm just like, alrighty then. The most I can do is hope for the best. So yeah.
