First of all, have you ever work at a retail job where they make the schedule almost a month in advance? I don't know about you, but who the hell knows what they're fucking doing 5 weeks in advance. I sure as hell don't. That was my first propblem. Then I was being worked full time. I complained that I didn't have a life, but I very much enjoyed having money. But now school is about to start. So the new schedule came out and I'm only getting 50 hours...FOR THE ENTIRE FUCKING MONTH! I'm so pissed off right now. Yes I do have a tediuos schedule what with going to cons and such. BUT I have no school on tuesdays and thursday, and I can work evenings on Friday and all day Saturday and Sunday. But do I get scheduled for those days. NO! Instead they basically took the week of Dragon Con (which I'm gone for almost that whole week) and copied it throughout the month. So not only and I not working weekends, I'm also not working thursdays...This just pisses me off to no end. I need that fucking money so bad! So now, I'm hoping that my campus job will let me work a lot of overtime in order to make up for that lost cash. God. . .This is bull shit.
And yes, I do understand that the store I work at is privately owend and can only do so much, but still, it sucks that the week was pretty much copied through out the month. Okay. I'm done ranting about my troubles now. I hope I will be able to afford the fucking gas to get to work through this month.

Easter Break
I'm back in Nashville for Easter Break (which is a mere 3 day mostly weekend holiday break from school) It's been a lot of fun. I am very glad I decided to come back for it. The weather has been absolutely perfect! I even got a little bit of a sun burn. But the only bad thing about breaks is that they end and you have to go back where you were before it. I wouldn't be dreading the return if it weren't for my damn 3D modeling class. I suck at modeling, my teacher knows I suck at it, and he even asked me "You're not really into modeling are you?" I try, I really do, but stupid freakin Maya hates me. I would much rather just sketch. I think concept art and story board art are what I really want to do. Even photography (because that was my original major) I just have to keep reminding myself that there is less than a month left of that class.
But now, how about some great things to look forward to:
MTAC!!!!!: It's going to be soooo much fun! I've got 3 cosplays lined up (Road, Gunner Paine, and for the Risque cosplay contest, Tira Misu) I'm also getting to help some friends and wear some awesome stuff ^_^. Not only that, but i'll be volunteering in the Green Room too! I'm so excited about this year! It's going to be busy, but it's going to be amazing too!
A possible job at G2K!: I've been going for this job since I first heard about it. I really hope I get it too. It's one of the most awesome jobs I could ever hope to work at while I'm still in college. I'd get to be with geeks like myself ALL day, and nerd out over new games and comics. It's just the environment that I would love to be at. And now I really really need it, because I had to quit my theatre job because my sister got promoted. Stupid corporate rules.
Summer Vacation: 'nuff said. haha I'll be up in JC for all of it I do believe.
That's all that's coming up soon
I'll keep in touch ^_^
but one more thing before I go! You should go check out my video blog on youtube. http://www.youtube.com/kagerounomiko
I post pretty regularly, and I'll have some MTAC stuff on there after mtac happens ^_^
You should also check out the cosplay group i'm part of. We have a youtube account as well http://www.youtube.com/FiniteFantasy We will be posting videos soon!!!!!!

Why do craptastical things keep happening?
I'm sitting at my campus job, and my boss from my theatre calls me and asks "can you put in your 2 weeks notice so we can promote your sister?"... Damn it. I mean, I'm happy for her and everything, but I really love that job. I don't want to quit, and I don't want to transfer theatres, because I really love the people at my theatre. I understand that I'm not there for most of the year, but still, I don't want to stop working there. I guess it won't affect me if I can get the job I have been going for up here. But i'll still miss it.
Some more craptastical stuff that has devoloped recently:
I feel like I'm drifting farther and farther apart from one of my best friends. We were fine the first semester she was here, and now she barely ever talks to me. I feel like i'm an after thought in her head if I am even lucky enough to be there. It really hurts. I ask her if I did something, and the answer is always no, but I can't help feeling like I am being forgoten and replaced. I try to communicate and it's always the same. Either no, or plans, or other friends. Go ahead and make other friends, but don't forget about me too. The person who stood by you when others wouldn't. Who comforted you when you needed it. Who loves you like a sister.
I'm going to go sulk now.

Bordom after Computer Revival.
I'm on spring break, back in good 'ole Nashville. You never really realize how much you miss a place that you thought you hated, until you leave it for long periods of time. J.C. is great and all, but there is NOTHING to do up there. I love my friends up there so much, but I also love my friends down here. *sigh* Oh well, I graduate soon-ish....I think...., but I don't know what I want to do after college. Anyway, I'm sitting in my den at home, watching tv, and just playing around on the webs. My computer got a virus at the beginning of spring break and my friend, Jeremy, saved it's life. <3 Thank gawd I have computer nerd friends. So tomorrow, i'm hoping to get a hair cut. My hair is a mess, and I need a change. I may also try this scrunching thing...I'm horrible at girly stuff. Give me a video game, or a comic book and I'll be content.
So some good news on the job front. I've applied at G2K Games, and I've been called back for a secondary interview. This is very much a dream job for me. Getting to work with people who share common dorky interests, talking about who our favorite super hero/ villain is and debating one why who's is better, talking about up comming kick ass video games...It's the dream. I am really excited about this chance, and I hope I get it.
MTAC is in a month, and I am almost done with 2 out of 3 of my cosplays. I just need my wigs for the 2, and to get started on the 3rd. But if this money situation doesn't pick up, then the 3rd may not become a reality. If that happens, i'm going to feel like crap, because i've put this off for a year now, and I feel bad for the group I am supposed to do it with. *gladly accepts donations*...*cough*
Welp, bed time...I think. Night all.

Connooga!!!!
I have returned from Connooga, and let me just say; IT WAS AMAZING!
I've been to cons many times before, but Connooga was definitely one of the more fun ones. I think it was because I met so many awesome people there. I went to advertise GMX (which is in October btw) and I was the only GMX girl there. At first I didn't know how that would work out, but it went great! We got a bunch of stickers and fliers passed out.
On friday I think I got there around 5pm, got checked in and such then went out to eat with Lucas and the crew (mexican, nummy). Then we headed back to the hotel, and on the way scored some awesome blinds that were just thrown out in the garbage. At the hotel Lucas created a new drink now named "GMX Juice" (it's delicious) We then went to watch the fashion show (i can't wait to get some stuff from the dealer), and while we waited for it to start I met Michael (an awesome guy who makes awesome armor and weapons) ,and Roni and Jason (awesome actors). The fashion show was amazing. Then we went party hopping, which is always fun, (though my hair was molested by an old guy's hand) and ended the night watching Whip It.
Saturday we all woke up around early afternoon, and went to a nice cafe around the corner. The food was delicious! After that, we went back to the booth, grabbed fliers, and went to the dealer room to score dealers for GMX and tell people to come to GMX! I think it went pretty well. We stayed in there for over 2 hours (my feet were killing me) but I feel we accomplished our mission ^_^ Later we watched the belly dancers (amazing). They broke out the light sabers and I nerdgasmd. hahah. After we rested a bit, we party happed again. This time around we went to a few more parties. I was tempted to get up on the pole and dance, but I hadn't had anything at all to drink. During the next party we all broke out the bathing suits and jumped in the hot tub. Let me just say that running through a bunch of (drunk) people, in your bikini, in 40 degree weather....is special hahah.But it was fun, till someone broke it. haha
Sunday was laid back. Tina and I decided we would go advertise once more in the dealer room (and do a little shopping of our own) and while we were there we hung out with Michael at his booth, then Lucas called me over. I got to help them film a short video (which I think is showing at MTAC) I got to tackle a wrestler ^_____^ hahaha it was awesome!
After the con Niko, Tina, Carrie, and I needed cheap food. So we ventured off to find a Subway. We went all over town, road the bus, and walked trying to find it. Then gave up and went to my car, drove over the bridge, and found one haha.
It was a great con. And I am a happy camper ^_^

I'm sick and I can't sleep
Well, my boyfriend is up for the weekend and guess what? I'm sick. Yeh way to fail immune system. I've been coughing all day, and my chest hurts, and I can't breath at all. I ache all over my body too (and I don't think it's from working out anymore) But yeh, it's about 2am and I can't sleep. I'm tired, and the idea of sleep is nice, but I can't force my self to lay down and close my eyes.
So instead of sleep I'm talking to my very good friend, Tyki. We're going to do awesome things! I'll tell you as soon as we do them hahaha. (and if you're mind went straight to the gutter, because lets face it, mine went there as soon as i typed it, it's not sex involved bahahah)

In 3D modeling...lost as hell...
Hey there,
I'm in my 3D modeling class right now, and i'm lost as hell... My teacher is a really cool guy, but damn he goes way too fast. I think I should sit down with him and teach him how to teach people who've never used a software program before. Well if I can get past him, and learn on my own, then I will be fine. Despite this set back, I am really looking forward to the end product. We get to model our own characters in this class. I've got a few different designs in mind. Right now I'm definitely thinking about modeling my Mandalorian bounty hunter girl.
squee!

The start of school, and my tattoo update.
So, I didn't end up getting my awesome Tim Burton tattoo I designed, BUT I did go ahead and get my awesome Mandalorian mythosaur. I couldn't go with Burton, because it was too expensive, but I've been in love with Boba Fett, and Star Wars ever since I was introduced to it. I got the Mandalorian symbol on my right foot. It hurt like hell, but it was very much worth it!
Okay, on another note, school started today. Yuck. I'm taking 17 hours this semester, and I have to get A's in all of them or else i may not be able to afford school next semester. That wouldn't be so bad if I didn't have to take PreCal again. (since I failed it last semester). My new years resolution is to try my hardest. I gave up last year. I convinced myself I couldn't pass the class no matter how hard I tried. This year I refuse to get an F in anything. I have mostly core this semester, so it's going to be mostly writing papers and taking tests. I do have one 3D modeling class which I'm hoping will be awesome. Well, I have an early day tomorrow, so I should probably go to bed. Oh by the way...my hair is blue now ^_^

New Tattoo! (I hope)
Finally! I've finalized a sketch of my new tattoo that I'm going to get! It's taken many try's, and I've had many errors. I've wasted lots of paper, and broken many pencils. But I've finally fallen in love with what I've drawn. (which is good since it's going to be on me forever) So, the story behind this tattoo is:
It's a Nightmare Before Christmas tattoo. (I don't care if everyone's got one.) It's been my favorite movie ever since I was a little kid. Ask my mom, every time we rented movies, The Nightmare Before Christmas is the only movie I would ever get. Also, Tim Burton was my inspiration for studying animation in college. I really like it, and stop motion is my favorite style. So my tattoo is something I drew while watching tv with my mom. It's going to look like a patch is sewed onto my leg, and in the patch are Lock, Shock, and Barrel. <---my favorite characters. teehee. The tattoo is going to be on my lower calf on my left leg.
So, if all goes well tomorrow, I'll go out to lunch with my boyfriend, then we'll head over to the tattoo parlor. I have to get the tattoo priced, since i'm on somewhat of a tight budget, and IF it doesn't cost too much, I'll be inked by tomorrow afternoon ^____^
