Okies, no reason for this, but wondering if anyone be up for a doll meet in the near future?

I am an utter doll noob and have no idea how teh heck to organise one, but I would like to see some doll peeps again and squee over purdy dolls and stuffs.

Hopefully another meet in the city would be awesome but could there be another place that has good lighting and stuffs? I felt like a retard holding that paper over my flash and stuffs.

Anyways, just throwing it out there to see any interest. ^_^

(And yesh, this has alot to do with my wolf boy getting his body VERY soon and me wanting to show off xD)

lol quiet night is quiet at work. But fucked if I'm not motivated today and shit. I've been unpicking things, knitting, and trying to do stuff for the doll con. I'm trying to see who's gonna put their hand up to help out with workshops so that it doesn't end up being just Me, Carol and Aeryn doing them all. Cause I've got traders to worry about too, and fuck how boring would it be to hear just our voices all weekend D: So if anyone reading this is thinking of going and would like to host a workshop (or co-host even), let me know. :D

Speaking of which, Beck, do you want to do a wig styling workshop? Siera said I have to put it at the end of the weekend so that she doesn't have to deal with your inflated ego. :P

I WANNA SEW THINGS FOR MY DOLLS DAMMIT! I wonder if I'll have the energy to do that when I get home tonight? I doubt it, but we'll see.

Oh, and I had that Bella shoot to post! I might as well do that now while I'm here. Made this shirt for the lovely hydrakitten, and when I was taking photos for her, I just kept on taking photos >.> To me it looks like Bella has slept with the captain of some ship and stolen his shirt >:3

It seems that nowadays, I tend to milk the life out of all my gadgets before getting new ones. *gasp* Have I become sensible?! XD I used to be always eager to get new toys to play with, and would look at new mobiles, new computer peripherals, or even new cameras and want want want. But now? It's taken me about 4 years to upgrade my iPod. I had a 10gb (whoa, old skool!) version that lasted me all this time (it's still working!), but last week, I thought it was about time to upgrade. So hello, brand spankin' new 32gb ipod Touch! *sparkles* I don't really see the appeal of the iPhone, to be honest - txt-ing is going to be a bitch for me, and I really don't want my music to be interrupted by incoming phone calls. XD

I'm loving the new toy so so much. And I think it's the start of me getting back into tech lust again; cos I just bought a new mobile. HURRY UP AND BE SHIPPED! I WANT MY NEW KEITAI!!!

Looks like the stuff I asked my housemate to help me get -did- after all arrive at -my- home. YESTERDAY even, when I was ranting about not getting it till monday XD;

I'm sorry I thought so badly of you, Lady Karma ^^;

On a side note, I read something on a DA journal today that I found rather disturbing. But then again I probably just have something against the american idea of "I can do whatever the fuck I want with my life, myself and me, me, me" because I personally find it a terribly selfish mindset :(

I kinda agree with what CLAMP proposed in xxxHolic where Yuuko said that nothing ever belong to itself alone. For as long as humans live in a community, interconnected with each other, we never really are free. Our restriction on freedom was birthed from the thing called "consideration" and "obligation". This obligation came from the emotion that a long time ago, began with "care". To be so selfish and I, my, me so much... maybe that's why I get easily stabby with this... 'freedom' thing. True that our restrictions has been poluted since the old days, but still. These rebellious feelings, and the cock hard notion that it's a personal absolute right. I guess people do have the right to decide, but it seems like it's turning into such a... a crusade that it's starting to look perversive, just like gay rights action.

I still don't see the awesomeness in celebrating sexual orientation when what you should celebrate is actually having someone :| I'd rather know my friend has someone he loves than knowing that he's gay, because really I don't need to know your sexual orientation unless I'm hitting on you.

I'm really lost for what sort of DSLR I should get, I've looked into a few that are in my price range, and I've found that Nikon D60 [link] and the Canon EOS 450D [link] which is just out of my price range.

I would love to get the Canon EOS 450D but I don't think I really need a camera that good (as an amateur photographer) and it seems highly expensive for what it is. On the other hand the Nikon D60 seems reasonable in price, and a decent camera (even if it's missing the highly helpful 'Live View' that the Canon has), but other than that, there aren't too many differences >_> So I'm stumped really...

I guess I'll just need to see how much money I can be bothered spending on a new camera -_- *sigh*

Ended up not going out cause I was cold and my neck and shoulders are really sore (and the seats at Hoyts in Northland are so uncomfortable DX). So instead Brendon and I sat at home and watched You Don't Mess With The Zohan. Adam Sandler is always good for the lols. I think I needed to laugh at stupid shit. And everything in life needs more Disco Breaks I think.

Anyway, a character meme, cause I like these ones.

Chose 10 of your OC's. Then answer the following quiz.

(lol just looking at the order of dolls around me XD)
1.Alice
2.Phoenix
3.Ophelia
4.Jesus
5.Aleana
6.Lucy
7.Pavel
8.Charlie
9.Kostya
10.Sveta

Good Things:
Two commissions completed today. Feeling fucking awesome. Just gotta email the photos to the respective ppls and get the ok to mail them off. :3

Gonna go and see X-Files tonight 8D

I just had a giant glass of Milo and it was good.

And I'm actually looking forward to going to work tomorrow!

Bad Things:
Everyone on my flist talking about AVcon. I'm gonna miss not going this year, had so much fun the past years, and I was looking forward to catching up with Adelaide peeps. :(

Shoulder and neck being a bitch.

Another ten jillion commissions to finish.

Still haven't started wedding outfits.

Forgetting the other thing that was crap. XD

Wow. What happened to neck? Feels like a muscle spasm has everything on the left knotted up. With a very vague ache radiating from there, down my shoulder and into the whatever it is; triceps? Dunno.

Shower, then work on commishes. We've wrapped one chapter. /proud

It's official: I must be a vampire.

I had a bunch o' blood tests done on Monday. I failed a chunk of them.

1) Failed the glucose test. Have to go back for a second, more sensitive one to see if I have gestational diabetes. I cannot express in words how badly I do not want to be diagnosed with gestational diabetes. Diet control? Ew! But what will be worse is having to check my blood sugar levels constantly and possibly having to deal with insulin injections. After chemotherapy, I loathe needles. (and yes, all that pales compared to the thought of giving birth to a monster sized baby grown huge from unchecked glucose intake. but still, indulge me in a moment of whinge) So wish me luck for passing the next test

2) Low iron levels. This, despite having laid aside vegetarianism to eat meat, as well as ingesting the occasional fefol supplement (which contains iron). So it's onto the superduper heavyduty ferrograd-c for me.

3) I have low vitamin d levels. Onto a supplement for this, too. Vitamin D is necessary for proper calcium intake so mum and bub have strong bones, as well as (according to the internet) reducing the risk of MS and schizophrenia in the child.

Looking at 2) and 3), I can only conclude I am a vampire. I have failed to drink enough blood, resulting in low iron levels. I also don't go out into the sunshine (yes yes, melbourne winter: what sunshine?), revealing me as a pale and pasty (freckled) vitamin d-deficient nightcrawler.

[15:02] Btw, I couldn't help but notice the manifest lanyard the other day. Are you an anime fan?

AHAHAHAHA. And it would be the new IBL student who picked it, too.
Though, apparently the last anime he saw was Cowboy Bebop =_= Still the Geekiest.

*pout*

Now I have this huge urge to go play TF2 :\ Maybe I should get a Steam account first.

AVCon is in a few days and I'm studying for supplementary exams :(

I won't have my new pocket money till monday probably, so that sucks. From the guvvie, and my parents, both :(

But come to think of it, what WOULD I buy at AVCon? Possibly more figurines. But of what? I don't quite have a series I'm really hooked on right now, asides from Soul Eater, Nougami Neuro and... lol, what else? Maybe if there's some FFCC figurines, I'll be in trouble. Or FMA ones with better Envy. I guess an XXXHolic Yuuko figurine would make me double over too D:

I'd love to get posters but I'm too chicken to risk my walls here in my student accomodation house. I mean, I still have my beloved wallscroll from Tsubasa RC1 T_T

And the stuff I asked my housemate's friend to help me buy has already arrived, but my housemate has no time to grab it off him since she has supplementary exams on friday, and a party to prepare on saturday :( And if she fetches it on sunday, she'll end up staying over till dinner time, thus I wont get it till after AVCon. Oh woes :( I did so want to bring Ika on the first day of AVCon and Dev on the second day ;( Oh woeessssssss

Man, Aeryn's camera is so much nicer on Zeus than mine is. <33
Anyway, I had more pics than this, but I got tired editing, so have three.

And holy shit kids, I just spent money on Alice! :O She's getting some nice boots and is finally getting her horns that I've been meaning to get her for a loong time. :3
And Ophelia is getting some blingtacular shoes. She'll be as beautiful as a high class prostitute.

HEY GUYS.

Not being so good with the regular updates, but there's not so much to update on. Is all good.

Pics, however. Now, when I say this is image heavy, I mean it's freaking heavy. Many, many pictures. Lots. SO MANY. So be warned. Internet cap people. Yeaaah.

Hayden, Logan, Shoyou (bluemana 's Luwen) and Neil (discardtheold 's DOD Sha), and then some of lols.




I'm pretty sure that's it... Yep. Buttsexed your net right there. If there are any broken tags, I am not fixing them. LIKE I CAN FIND THEM.
Typing image tags on Ash's british keyboard is confusing XD

Okay. Now I need to go and help ash with coating some Shouuuu, needs less shiny.

Well I'm feeling much better today. Thanks to everyone for their hugs and love. It was much appreciated <333

In good news, commissions are going good today, which makes me happy. And I'm listening to the Pixies, which is always good. Beck, I haven't listened to Wave of Mutilation in weeks. WEEKS D: What's wrong with me???

Dolls are being a shit though which is not cool. I haven't been able to get a clear shot of Charlie for ages, and just when I was gonna take Zeus out for a shoot the sun came out, so that's not gonna happen now.

Anyway back to work. Gotta clean up the house a bit too, which really means doing dishes and laundry. The rest of the mess will stay where it is as usual. :P

I love this episode.

So for those who missed it lost in the comments of my last post, I have food poisoning. The pains are gone, but I still feel like shit. I've spent all day dead on the couch feeling sorry for myself, and shitty at the world cause I can't do anything DX

Ah well. Hopefully I'll feel better tomorrow.

Yes, I'm a geek. A friend asked me how much the baby grew week by week. So I took the data out of the utterly wonderful Kaz Cooke "Up the Duff" book and... well, I graphed it. I did tell you I was a geek.

Length grows linearly, weight is exponential. I think babies at birth are usually between 3 and 5kg, assuming they're not prem/twins/mother doesn't have gestational diabetes/no other complicating factors.

Length measurement is head to bum, not head to foot. Actual baby will be larger than appears... in the chart.

I don't know what happens after week 40, but it gives a good indication on why doctors want to induce you at the 42 week mark. If the weight growth of the munchkin continues on that same rate, you'd be giving birth to a behemoth. Behemoths: just say no!

Tagged by doona_chick - possibly was tagged by someone else earlier, but I just noticed my name now.

( Yes, I am protesting my workload, but only because my account has been stuffed up. )

No tagging from me. I reject that condition and substitute my own.

Driving at 110km for an hour while you are in a lot of pain is not cool. Helped Brendon pick his car up this morning, and then randomly on the way home my body decided that I really needed sharp pains in my abdomen all the way home. Still in pain, though the pains aren't as frequent. Just lying here dead on the couch waiting for them to go away. :(
