Hyuuu~ The last part of my con report~ Seeing all the awesome cosplays and posing for pictures were probably my favorite parts of this con XDD

Enough of me babbling~ On to the pictuuuuures~ 8DDD Oh, and sorry if they're a bit big. The computer I'm using doesn't have photoshop, so I had to settle for resizing these pics on photobucket XP And FFF ignore my hair. After looking through these pics, I realized that I don't really like how my hair looked XDD The next time I cosplay as Envy, I think I'll stick with my original method of just spraying green spray dye into my hair XDD


</div>

Hyuu hyuuu. So I went to AnimeNEXT 2009 this past Saturday. I must say that I was slightly disappointed by it this year for a few reasons:

1.IT RAINED. Rain means no awesome super fun tiems cosplay photoshoot on the awesome locations outside in the field which were perfect for photoshoots. And it also means no sitting around and chilling on the grass XP

2.The location of the con. AnimeNEXT moved this year to a new location that spanned two buildings: The DoubleTree Hotel and the Garden State Exhibition Center in Somerset, New Jersey. This location was a bit farther than last year. There were a few things I liked about the new location. Since they have more space, that gives them more opportunity for more events and panels and such. Their rooms for karaoke and the artists' alley were MUCH nicer this year as opposed to last year's modified parking lot. There were also more places to just chill and take a break from walking around and stuff too. However, I didn't really like the fact that you had to walk between two buildings to get to where ever you want to go. Perhaps I wouldn't have minded if it wasn't rainy and wet XP

3.Despite all the added space, there wasn't really that much going on. There weren't very many interesting panels. There were no guests that I really wanted to see. Upon looking at the schedule, the only things I really wanted to go to were Anime Jeopardy and the Anime Dating Game. We ended up ditching Anime Jeopardy because we got to the con a bit later than expected and didn't want to go find the room and get there while it was halfway through. Anime Dating Game was a big disappointment because we couldn't hear a blessed thing any of the contestants were saying, despite having mikes. Not only did they not have that much stuff to begin with, but a lot of their panels randomly got canceled. Those of you who didn't go to ANEXT, didn't really miss out on much, unless you wanted to go see FAKE?, which according to missykitty0115 and several others I've heard from, was the most exciting part of the convention. I hope next year's AnimeNEXT will be better. They probably just have to get used to their new place. I will probably end up going to next year's, but I REALLY want to go to Anime Boston.

4.Despite going to six conventions prior, I had never gone to a Cosplay skit masquerade. I had always wanted to go to one, so I decided to try and go the one at ANEXT 2009. The skits were pretty lame except for two or three really good ones. This isn't the convention staff's fault though.

5.The dealer room was a tad disappointing this year too. There wasn't as much variety in merchandise as I would have liked. Except for a Ciel Phantomhive ring, there really wasn't anything else that I wanted. I actually never got the Ciel ring that I wanted, NO ONE had it except for one booth, which sold out of it before I could get it ;0; In the end, I only ended up buying two boxsets of The Wallflower ((which I probably would not have bought had I not met my friend who reminded me that I wanted to get the entire series.)) and a Versailles Philharmonic Quintet CD which I've been wanting for a while. Oh, and a couple of prints of me and my friend cosplaying as Envy and Greed from FMA, and for food of course. That's probably the least I've ever bought at a convention o___o;; I do kind of regret not going back to the Artists' Alley to get some prints of stuff though.



But overall, it was still a fun day. I loved seeing all the cosplayers as usual. I revived my Envy cosplay from Fullmetal Alchemist and was really glad to see a good handful of other Fullmetal cosplayers there too. The fandom's coming baaaack 8DDD I was also stopped at least 50 or so times to take a picture XDDD I almost forgot how much of a fan favorite Envy was XDDDDD

Hyuu, I'll end here 'cause I don't want this entry to be too long XDD Pictures in my next post~

Hyuuuu so, loooong time no entry. I was busy about a month ago with finals and various school related things, but I've been on vacation for at least a month now and I haven't posted anything XDDD So I shall make up for that now with two memes that I was tagged in. XDD

First is a meme that I've done before XDD


"Interview Me" Meme







Hyuuu now for the second meme~

"Words" Meme





Aaand, that's it. I promise that I'll try to update more often XDD Oh, and AnimeNEXT 2009 con report soon~ *uploading pics to photobucket as I type XDD*

Hyuu~! Long time no post guys~ There just hasn't been much to journal about (AKA: I'm a lazy ass). I'll try to post more often XDD Sorry to be a downer, but my first entry in a while will be about school and homework. XDD

I have an assignment that I have to complete and I need help from my peers. You guys just have to give me a few answers to a sort of interview. Don't worry. I won't be using real names. ^^ I'll love you all forever for helping me out.



Kay, so the assignment is:

You will interview at least 3 other members of your own generation, friends, family or acquaintances, asking them to assess the meaning of seven categories and how they are applied to forming their identity.

The seven categories are:

Gender
Race
Class
Ethnicity
Nationality
Region of birth/residence (e.g. New York City, Long Island, the South, the city vs. country, etc.)
Religion

Your answers will be summarized in a paper I have to write for this class. And again, real names will not be used. You don't have to get into too much personal detail if you don't want to. Just be sure to elaborate on your answers. If you don't identify with one or more of the categories, please tell me why. ^^

Once again, I will be EXTREMELY GRATEFUL for taking your time to do this. Leave your answers as comments. I'll even screen the comments for privacy ^^

Hyuuu, I stayed home sick today and I'm bored DD8 So I bring you all the same meme from my last entry xDD I should really update more with more interesting things. xP


Association meme

Comment to this post and I will give you 5 subjects/things I associate you with. Then post this in your LJ and elaborate on the subjects given.



( answers heeeere x3 )

Aaaand...I'm spending my time inside typing out this random entry instead of frolicking outside. Lulz. XDD

Right, so anyway, I'm on break for the next hour and fifteen minutes and I'm bored. XDD

Hyuuu stolen from a friend's Facebook note XDD

( Meme is heeere x3 )

WOO~ YEAR OF THE OX. YAY 8D.

I have not posted in a while. Um...There's nothing really to write about I guess. Life's been pretty boring so far XDD

So let me just spam your friends lists with a meme~ I've done this one before, but it's pretty much always different each time you do it XDD


1. Leave me a comment saying, 'interview me'.
2. I will respond by asking you five questions. I get to pick the questions.
3. Update your LJ with the answers to the questions. (You must do this, even if it's filtered for my eyes only!)
4. Include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.


Hyuu~ I was interviewed by missykitty0115



( Hyuuu~ Answers heeeere x3 )

Hyuu hyuuu, so while on an adventure to a Barnes and Nobles today, I got to thinking about gifts for my family and friends. And as I explored the store, I realized that there was SOOO MUCH stuff that I REALLY REALLY WANT XDD So, here is a modified version of the list I previously put up XDD



( Myaaa selfish Java is selfish :< )

And I came in 15 minutes late to class just to buy tickets for this event XDD;

But that's irrelevant to this entry XDD; I'm on break and I'm bored. No fancy/amusing meme this time though. I couldn't find one. Instead, I shall spam all your friends lists with...



( tis here~ 8D )

Yes. I have decided that this weekly hour of time every Wednesday between Psychological Statistics and Chorus is now 'Meme tiems.'

Because whenever Java-chan has absolutely nothing better to do with her time, she fills out memes. 8DD;;;;


Here's an amusing one I found on starrrfruit's lj.


Go to urbandictionary.com and type in your answer to each question in the search box, then write the FIRST definition it gives you.

1.) Your name:
2.) Your age:
3.) One of your friends:
4.) What should you be doing?
5.) Your favourite colour:
6.) Your birthplace:
7.) Last person you talked to:
8.) Last thing you had to drink:
9.) Your nickname:


( lulz XDD; )</div>

IT'S 12:24 AM.


HOLY CRAP. I'M FRAKING 20.

Right, so...my first class was cancelled...

NOT. COOL.

If I had known earlier, I could have gotten a whole extra hour of sleep DD8

So, now i've got a whole hour to kill. It's only been about 15 minutes into it, and I've already checked all my usual sites. DDD8

So I decided to post an entry since I haven't really done so in a while XDD; And of course, whenever Java-chan is bored, SHE FILLS OUT MEMES!! YEY. Here's one from missykitty0115.


You are given a letter and must list 10 things that you love that begin with that letter. Comment on this entry if you want to do this meme and I'll give you a letter.


( My letter was J. )

Hyuu, I always end classes at noon on Fridays, so it's really boring when I get home XDDD I have decided to somehow cure this boredom by doing a meme I stole from starrrfruit

-- People who have been tagged must write their answers on their blogs and replace any question that they dislike with a new question formulated by themselves.
-- Tag eight people to do this quiz and those who are tagged cannot refuse may refuse if they have crazy school exams that are ruling over their lives at the moment.


\( hyuuu answers heere~ )

I stole this from missykitty0115's livejournal.


WHY ARE ALL OF THESE ANSWERS SO ACCURATE? XDDDDD;

Hyuuu, so, I am now in my second week of school. The first week went well. All my teachers seem nice. A few of them are those really laid back, 'call me by my first name' kind, which is cool xDD; I wish all those who have already started school and who are going back to school this week a good year ^^ Don't work too hard kaaaay? x3

Anywaaaay, I kinda sorta volunteered for a meme thing on innovade's lj, so I'll answer the questions now XDD;

1. Leave me a comment saying you want to do the meme.
2. I'll respond by asking you five personal questions so I can get to know you better.
3. You should update your LJ with the answers to the questions.
4. You should include this explanation and offer to ask someone else in the post.
5. When others comment asking to be asked, you will ask them five questions.




( These are the questions she asked me x3 )

I went to Universal Studios today.

It rained freaking GALLONS...twice.

I really wanted to go on the Jaws ride.

Twister was fraking scary, but oh so cool xDD

Disaster was more funny and amusing than scary, but twas awesome as well xDD;

Next year I shall go on the Mummy ride.

Yay for the E.T. ride XDD;
