Sena's DW :: Watermelon Life

So I finally managed to get my apps finished for taediumvitae_rp. It took forever, between moving and baking and family issues and everything, but YAY. Now I play Dean Winchester (escapeperdition) and House (thecaneisnotart) over there. Kekeke. House is so hard. XD; But fun! And Dean is awesome to play. Now I just need a Sam and I'll be set. ♥

Tonight was half-spent RPing (Demyx with Zexy, and a little with Michi as well in a different rp, and then Dean a bunch and House some. Also some ND with Cassandra-san. :3), and then after/around that... more baking. =D;

Michi and I are rping Demyx/Axel. Which, I mean, is made of awesome, right? Except Dem is topping sort of, which is crazy and also really hot. O__O; Plus there's angst in there too, which just makes it even better. XD; Turns out I have a think for uke!Axel. Who knew? XD

I finished off 12 dozen lemon cheesecake cookies tonight, and now I'm doing what is (almost) the last of the shortbread. I still have one more batch to make tomorrow or the next day, but that's it. After this, I still have to do fruit cookies, lemon squares, buttertart squares, and broken-glass torte. Way to go right to the wire, self. >>;

A reminder, all the Christmas packages for people are going to be late. Sorry. But I am sending them. So yay for packages after Christmas? IT EXTENDS THE HOLIDAY, DAMMIT. XDD;;

So! Anime North this year! ...the programming kind of sucked. There weren't really any panels I was interested in, and the same for Mom. But it was still totally worth going since Mel and Zexy were there. :3

Friday I was in my Host Club cosplay, and we pretty much spent the whole day in line to register and then looking through the dealer's room. Mel dragged me around and we squeed at stuff. XD; She also tried to get me to buy porn-- and very nearly succeeded lawl. ^.^

Sena: You know my Mom's right here. >__>;;
Mom: Whatever. If you want to buy porn, buy porn. *shrug*
Sena: XD;

Then she wandered off, and came back a few minutes later and was like "there's a book over there called The Manga Sutra, but it's shrinkwrapped so I can't look at it. .__.;" XDD;; My Mom makes me laugh sometimes. ♥

Anyway, then we all met up with some of Mel's friends and went to Kelsey's for dinner, after which Mom and I left to head back to Dad's and crash because seriously, I hadn't slept in two days. =.=; And then we ended up staying up until like 1am chatting with Dad and Lois and playing with the dogs. >>;;

Then Saturday, we were late getting up, and then I took forever getting my costume on, since it was my Suigintou day, and I had to mess around with make-up and a wig, and fake nails WHICH I HATED SO MUCH OMG. >.<;

We hung around with Mel after we got there, and then I called Zexy and she came across to sit with us at the café at the TCC for a while. :3 Mom was in awe of her Zexion wig, and so was I. It was soooo good! >3<

Then that night I was supposed to go to the Moonlight Ball with Mel, but I had to go back to Dad's to pick some stuff up, and then Mom wasn't feeling well and didn't want to drive back into TO. Then it turned out Zexy went to the Ball too. D:

Sunday was my AU!Demyx day, but my Demy wig died a terrible death. ;___; So I wore the rest of the costume but not the wig, which was pretty pointless really. xD; I was supposed to meet up with Mel when we got to the TCC, but we waited/searched for about an hour, and then I had to head over to the DoubleTree to the KH photoshoot to find Zexy again... and when we got there I couldn't find the photoshoot either. ><;; BAH.

So I didn't end up managing to hook up with either of them on Sunday, which was kind of disappointing. :P And I brought Tet-chan with me on Sunday too, to show him off. TT__TT He was disappointed that he didn't get to meet them, but at the same time happy to have fresh air and attention from other people. He had his photo taken a couple of times! ♥ Plus we went back into the dealer's room and I found a new shirt for him, too. :)

All in all, it was a good weekend even though the programming wasn't super. ^_^ I'm looking forward to next year and bothering Mel and Zexy again. X3 *squishes them*

And I did a ton of shopping that I shouldn't have. >__>; I got a new plushroom to go with the fox I got last year (a panda :3), a necklace and four Hitachiin twins buttons and a twins postcard at Artist Alley. In the dealer's room I got a giant blue Gloomy Bear (I named him Bluebell to go with my other Gloomies, Marigold and Sakura, because I name them after flowers lawl; at the same booth Mel got a giant plush banana~~ XD;), a keychain, a bunch of pocky, and 19 volumes of manga. X3

-Alien Nine #1-3
-Alien Nine Emulators
-Rhysmyth #2 (etcetera_cat got me the first one for Christmas :3)
-Vampire Knight #1-2
-Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories #1-2
-Kingdom Hearts II #1 (I got #2 a couple weeks ago)
-Loveless #3-5
-Candidate for Goddess #3-5
-Megatokyo #3
-Fruits Basket #17
-La Corda d'Oro #2 (onewhomust gave me the first one when we traded a bunch of manga a while back ♥)

...and I realised after I got home that I forgot to pick up the latest volume of Tsubasa. Bah. Plus the shirt I got for Tet-chan, and Mom bought about $50 worth of candies at one of the booths because she really really liked them. lol. Then on the way home we stopped at Chapters in Barrie and I got an encyclopedia on gemstones, and the latest Dean Koontz paperback. <3

Anyway, I took Tet-chan with me to show him to Dad and Lois, mostly. I took all of his extra clothing and stuff as well, I'd planned to take some pics of him outside around their property because they have gorgeous grounds, but I didn't have the time. Too bad. Dad like choked when he found out how much he cost. XD;;

It's always nice to have a chance to talk to them some, and play with the dogs. Lois was nice enough to bring Star in from the kennel so I could visit with her some. She's my special doggy and I love her to bits. I fully intended to bring her home with me when they were finished using her for breeding (she was the last in her line so they needed her), but right now I'm not in a situation to. I'm really kind of upset about that...

Other than Star, they have four puppies right now; the black one is very pretty but starts easily. If you surprise him he yelps too. The multicolour (he'll end up being red when his adult coat comes in) is really pretty and friendly, but standoffish, he likes to play but not snuggle. Then the blonde boy is adorable, and when you pick him up be vegges completely in seconds. He's such a cuddler! And finally~ Bella. ♥♥♥ Bella is black and tiny; super tiny. Her brother is on the floor and 4x her size, but she's too little to go out with the adult dogs yet. >3< She loves to cuddle, and is rediculously cute and pretty, and KNOWS it too. They could have sold her in a snap... if she didn't have a heart murmur.

Now, a lot of pups are born with a faint heart murmur, it's not really rare. But in most cases they grow out of it. Bella's is so bad that you can feel it when you're holding her, and if you hold her up to your ear, her heart doesn't go "thump thump" it goes "swish swish". ;___; She doesn't know there's anything wrong with her, but it's not going to go away, and Lois can't sell a dog that might just drop dead at any second. She wants to find a home for her, but it has to be someone who understands that she may have problems and be costly later on if the heart problem gets worse or acts up.

For now Bella is happy to be where she is and steal cuddles from anyone who looks her way. Mom was so close to taking her home. lol.

And then before we left I raided Dad's DVD collection and ended up with a bunch of b-grade DVDs; The Man-Thing, The Host, Parasite, Ice Spiders and Carnivore. X33

Now a couple of photos. Mom had the camera most of the weekend, but she took a couple of decent ones. I'll go through the rest and see if there are any others worth posting later.

( Four whole AN pics. >>; )

Oh... and on Friday morning Dad got a call that Grandpa (his father, obviously) died. I'm just mentioning it so I have a record of the date. Before anyone says anything about being sorry for me, don't bother; I hadn't seen him in about 18 years, and aside from that I have nothing else to say because you shouldn't speak ill of the dead.

And for things completely un-anime-north-related, RP UPDATE!

Kyo is currently working 14-18 hour days after the bombing at the school last week. He's pretty exhausted. *pets him* Last night Yukari randomly brought him dinner, and he was like "...wut?" until he realised she was Vincent's girlfriend, lol.

Demyx is somewhat trying to convince Zexion they need to take a vacation. At some point soon Marly is having a party and he plans to drag Zexy along to that too. <3

Kadaj. GOD THAT KID IS TROUBLE. First off, Seph found out about him going out with Marluxia and FREAKED OUT (which was to be expected), which of course made Kadaj freak out as well. Now they've somewhat worked it out. Mostly. Then he fucked up royally and slept with Asch, and completely alienated Luke for a few days. D: He was very upset, but he and Luke talked a bit and now everything's okay. As for his relationship with Marly, it's all working out well except that they're likely to have to take some time off until after the trial against Hojo is over. Kadaj is not really impressed with that idea, but... it has to be done. ;__; [Edit: Also, Axel has started calling him Ka-hime because of how much he blushes when asked about Marly lol. I find it amusing. Kadaj was annoyed for about ten minutes and then just gave up because once Axel decides on a nickname you're pretty much stuck with it. He learned that back when they first met. XD;]

Hikaru and Mahiru... .__.; I need to get them doing something. Seriously. Though I think Riku is trying to get the band practicing some, which will take care of Mahiru. *pokes Hikaru and ponders* Hmm.
