I love little things like this, name generators, al-bhed translators, nifty little…. workings.

Uh, -ahem-, anyway, from Brass Goggles, a name generator:
Title Type: Name Generated
None: Letitia Theobold
Military: Sergeant Major Letitia Theobold
Noble: Her Royal Highness…
Foreign: Senhorita…
Professional: Professor…
Religious: Reverend…
Other: Ms. …

Using my alias, I am named Hettie Bowles.  If I were a male, I would be Ralph and Israel, respectively.  How interesting.  I wonder how these names are generated….

So, I’ve started a new blog, Phosphorus and Breadcrumbs.  Maybe I’ll be able to turn it into something useful.  I have yet to turn this blog into anything….

I’ve tried getting into egl fashion, but it’s fairly inaccessible.  I love looking at it, and it feels awesome to wear, but it’s too hard to buy authentic clothing…..
It seems this way with a lot of the fashion I like.  Steampunk for example.  Oh, the brass goggles and airships!  How romantic!  But, again, as resourceful as the diy look is, I’d rather wear something …..reliable.  Designed.

Eh.  So is life, I suppose.

After my computer crashed, I have yet to really get it up and running again.  I still haven’t put AIM back on it, nor reinstalled my printer.  There are tons of things I haven’t gotten back on track.  I feel like just giving up…  a little apathetic, sadly.

Oh!  I got back on the Wii again, today, to check on my town in Animal Crossing: City Folk.  According to my villagers, I’ve been gone for 2 months.  What a long time!  I love the bedhead look, though.  >w<
We’ll see how long I can keep that hairstyle.  I got the princess birdcage thing at half off, though.

After playing Star Ocean: Till the End of Time, I’ve decided to buy it.  Well, I only have it on loan from a friend, and have only played it until rescuing Nel Zelfer(?) in Airyglyph, but that’s enough that I went out and bought my own copy.  xD

I just finished watching DMC; what an entertaining series!!  Ah, I love it.  Jagi-sama is definitely my favorite, but the ending song is catchy.  I get it stuck in my head very often, amai amai amai amai koibito~
And, of course, the opening song, satsugai, satsugai seyo!! I’m looking for the tribute cd, but no luck so far.  Poor Negishi-kun, but what a good Krauser he is!  I’m lucky I watched it subtitled, I think my family would have given me odd looks, had they known what I was watching.  The next series I plan to watch is Spice and Wolf.  The farthest I’ve gotten is the 3rd episode before I have to get back to real life.  Oh, I’m a sad excuse for a closet otaku…..  ;A;

I just bought an issue of cosMAKE, and it looks pretty helpful.  I think I’m still planning on cosplaying as Yoko Kurama and Major Kusanagi at this year’s Otakon.  There was a bit of trouble with commissioners, and money’s still tight.  Mother’s Day and my sister’s birthday and graduation are all coming up, and I’m kind of really bad at budgeting when it comes to spending for other people.

I’m searching for copies of Welcome to the NHK! and Godchild, but the local bookstores don’t have much.  I’m trying to follow Mixed Vegetables and Otomen, but I can’t find later volumes.  I gave up trying to follow Life and Suppli because I just can’t find the books.

-sigh-  Summer vacation’s here!!  Time to make some money!!

plus one?

To find rocks in a DS I’d just bought would be…. well, amusing and awful.  But really, I’m thinking the DSi just isn’t worth the money.

I’m thinking of adding quite a few sites to my blogroll…..

I don’t have much to say today,  I guess.

Cut them, slice them, chop them up

My sister and I went to PnT ( game store ), today, and bought Trapt and Fighting Force.  The former because we heard it was nice and gory and the latter because we needed to replace a lost one.
We’re only on Mission 4, I think, in Trapt, and so far, I’m pleased.  It’s subtitled and the movie scenes are entertaining.  I guess the main con at this point would be all the loading screens.

From Yahoo!’s homepage, these stories looked interesting: Gliese 581 d and Pickled Mammoth.

I’ve just finished, hopefully, shopping for my sister’s birthday and graduation presents.  Can’t say what yet, but I think she’ll be pleased.  I’ve spent so much money, unfortunately, and I’m crossing my fingers that nothing else catches my eye.

I don’t know if I’m cosplaying at this year’s Otakon anymore….  The commissioner we hired to make our Yoko Kurama and Kuronue costumes has been unresponsive, and I’m still working on the money for a Major and Kuze duo.

Work’s not getting any better.  Too much distance between me and my coworkers.  Ah well…. story of my life.

Ehm, here’re some related links that I think might should be provided:

Play N Trade
Trapt on IGN
Fighting Force on IGN
IGN
Yahoo!
Otakon
Subway

Hopefully, all those links work….  I have to remember to put them in the text next time.

Finally!!  A new PSP game to look forward to!

Trailer for Final Fantasy Agito XIII

From, ign.com

Ahh, I want to play it so badly!!!

Here’s for the PS3, which sadly, I do not own.

Trailer for Final Fantasy XIII

Ehh, makes me sad.  Again, from ign.com.

Advent Children is coming to blu-ray!!  No fair!  I just don’t have enough money for all this.  Here’s the article.  I recently saw the new DSi, the limited edition Phoenix Wright one, it’s so cute!!  With the Blue Badger on the front!  I still don’t know if the DSi is worth buying, but it looks decent.  I’m debating on whether to buy Trapt for PS2 or not.

I haven’t gotten on the Wii in a while.  Looking for a more engaging game to get for it.  Also considering looking for new employment.  I need to make more money, but who doesn’t these days?  My first job, I made 33USD / hour, and I’m down at minimum wage; it’s a bit depressing.

Oh, I recently saw Dragonball: Evolution.  Mmh, I think, as a fan of the anime, my opinion is strongly biased…..  It was… a decent movie in its own right, I suppose.  I couldn’t really get into it.   I mean, it’s a fun way to spend the night, hanging out with friends, but I wouldn’t buy the movie.

I want to change my name.  Rather, I want to be called something other than my given name.  I’m still deciding on this.

[edit]: For some reason, WP likes to mess with my embedding and links and etc, so I’ve rearranged some of the links.  Hopefully, they still work.

Ooooh, I’m so excited for this year’s Otakon!!  >w<
Mary Elizabeth McGlynn is going to be there!!~

I missed NYCC, but maybe I can make it to NYAF later this year…..
Money’s really tight, lately.

Ugh, I got myself into cosplaying 3 different people this year!!  Yoko Kurama ( YuYu Hakusho ), Motoko Kusanagi ( Ghost in the Shell ), and a Pokemon Trainer ( Pokemon ).  I don’t know how in the world I’m going to afford it……

My job’s not getting any better, and I’ve picked up applications.  Hopefully, somewhere a bit nicer will hire me.  It’s just lame to not like school, work, or home.  I mean, there should be somewhere I like going, right?

Meh, now I have Loop and Loop by Asian KungFu Generation stuck in my head, from looking at my last post.  Good song, but not what I’m in the mood for, right now.

Oh, hey, quick question if anyone’s reading this…..
Which is a better binder, Underworks or T-Kingdom?

If no one reads this, then it’s just something I have to find out.
-shrug-

I watched Water Lilies the other night.  I feel like I’ve seen it before……

Now, I’m watching 5×2.  I don’t know why I’m watching all these foreign films, lately.

I feel like I’m stuck.  As soon as I make money, I need to pay something off.  As soon as I make a friend, they betray me.  As soon as I get my sister to speak to me again, one of our parents says something and they both turn against me.

I think, I haven’t grown since 5th or 6th grade.  Oh well…….

I think I meant to type something, but I can’t remember what it might have been…….

I am determined to teach myself Esperanto!!

Now that I have my PSP, my sister won’t talk to me…..  I mean, not that she really did before, either, but still…..

It’s nice hanging out with guys……  I mean, I know they’re not my friends, but, hey, I’ll take what I can get until they figure out that they really don’t like me.
I think I’m going to go to a local college bookstore and see if I can pick up some Japanese textbooks.  If not, oh well, I tried.  Something like language would definitely be a fun major.  Psyche, too.  But, I’m in art.  Bleh.  I love art, but not the classes….

I bought a Ghost in the Shell game for my PSP, and luckily, so far, everything I’ve bought for it works.  Because it’s a Japanese import, I’m worried that some domestic stuff won’t work on it, but I’ve read that it’ll read any region games, just the movies have to be region 2.  So….. I’ll keep pressing my luck until I spend some ridiculous amount of money on something that doesn’t work and then throw a quiet fit about it.

I work tonight.  Oh boy, I can’t wait.  I want a new job, but in this economy, I’m kind of hesitant to quit my current one.  I’ve picked up applications, but so far, no go.

Losing weight is really hard!!  I mean, I’ve never actually tried before.  I just kind of let my weight fluctuate, no big deal.  But when I started college, I gained 20 lbs.  And, now into my second year, I still haven’t been able to get rid of it.  So, I’m twenty pounds larger than I remember myself being, and I’m beginning to hate it.  Sure, I’ve never fit into the clothes I wanted to just because of my build, but I’m finding that I really hate being at the weight I’m currently at.

I’ve kind of slacked at City Folk.  I need so much money for Otakon this year!!  I think I underestimated the amount of cash I would have to put up for a costume…. and I still want spending money…..
Ugh, this is hard!  And, heh, you know I love spending money~  xDD
No, but, really, it was a heck of a lot for the PSP, now I have to get something ultra expensive for my sister’s birthday, and then my costume, aaand spending money.  Of course, this is all on top of bills and such.  ><
I need a real job.  Or a substantial raise.

I have no one to rant to, so unfortunately, this blog and my notebook get the bulk of my negative thoughts.  I have to remember to keep this positive, sometimes, too.

bad luck + love = ?

I hate when I get a crush on someone……

But I got my PSP!!  And I bought, separately, the earpiece to go with it.
I went and got a memorystick and Harvest Moon: Boy/Girl.  Meh, I’m trading it back in.  I should have bought Ghost in the Shell instead.

I’m supposed to be making a mix CD for someone, but I get so self-conscious.  What if this person hates my taste in music, and then reacts funny?

Keh keh keh……..

I’m really bad at school……
and saving money…..
and being nice to people.

Rawr!!

…At this very moment, I
see Scorpio standing
ready, moments away
from taking unwary prey.

Brimming with confidence,
Scorpio beams with joy at
a soon-to-be-had victory…

But Scorpio’s forgotten…
The spoils of victory
belong not ONLY to the
victor.

And so speak the stars…

Fortune may favor you, or
it may NOT…

Something bad may be in
your future, but it also
may NOT be…

Heed my words and just
go about your normal
business as usual…  On
this, the stars all agree.

There is nothing in
particular for you to
worry about, so please be
content.

…That is all.

And that’s Katrina from City Folk.
Eh….  I dunno if I know any Scorpios….

I mean I must….?  When are Scorpios born?
Huh?  What’s the difference between a sidereal and tropical zodiac?
I guess I’m going by tropical……
October to November…..
Hmmm, yeah, no clue……

Oh, now I got stuck reading about my own sign……
-sigh-

Apparently, my sister and I are both fixed signs.  That can’t be good…..
Great, she’s the epitome of fixed signs.  I already know she’s stubborn.  Which gets her her way.  A lot.
I burn with a great intensity?  Meh.

Fire, masculine, positive……

Ahahhahahahhaha, this site reads, specifically mentioning my sign in relation to my sister’s: “It can be excellent . . . althought the relationship may need work as both signs can be very stubborn, and should try instead to understand and accept each other.“
Wow.

Oh, weird.  The associated Chinese Zodiac animals are backwards for us….  Like the one associated with my sun sign is hers, and the one with hers is mine.  How interesting……

Ah, I love reading astrology, horoscope things……
Sorry for going off on tanget.

Both my western and Chinese zodiac signs are fire…. but my year makes me earth….
And my sign is most powerful in the Year of the Ox…. that’s this year, right?

~ * ~ * ~ * ~

Alright, so my bad……
Didn’t mean that…….

I finally sent a postcard in to PostSecret!!  I mean, I’ve made quite a few, but never had the courage or distance to send them.

Ugh, I ate….. next to nothing.  I had a coffee yesterday, cheese and crackers last night, and a juicebox this morning.  My guts are churning, but I’m not hungry, yet.  My sister, so my mom said, picked out a shirt for me when she went shopping, recently.  It was a Large; I usually get XL.  So, I have to lose some weight to fit in it, or else everyone will be offended.  Ugh.

There’s an ongoing fight.  And my mom flipflops back and forth between mediator and attacker.  I wish she would just pick one side or neither and stay there.  I wish my sister would grow up.  I think the problem is that I expect her to be a fair person, and she’s stuck in teenager-mode.  Y’know, hate everyone that cares for her, everything she does is right, bla bla bla….. Whatever.  I wish we could stay close, but I don’t know if it’s going to happen.

-sigh-
What a week…. and it’s only just begun…….
