Am I an engineering major?

I have cracked many jokes over the past weeks on how I write enough to be considered an English major.  If someone had told me that, in graduate school, I would be doing more reading and writing than equation solving and prototyping, I would have nodded non-understandingly.

Now, I know.

Second *Almost Finished* Costume: Little Queen from Tales of Graces f

 

This was my first costume where I chose the design over the character.  The Little Queen is one of the antagonists of the future arc of Tales of Graces f, and she has *very little* personality.  She hates humans because of what they did to her planet.  End of story.  That doesn't stop her from looking amazing.  I knew that I couldn't do her when I started, but I wanted to try anyways.  And I wanted to do her for Aselia Con.  Hah, I didn't know anything about making a costume for a con, starting six months before the con.  I just thought, you know, that it'd just happen.  Inspiration would strike, amazingness would happen, my pretty fabrics would be amazing.

Impression: Conception 2 and many, many star children

I said that this blog was going to go by my whims. After I've dumped all of the thoughts that I have been keeping, I will set certain themes to certain days.  Until then, expect no theme!  Just have fun!

I've been playing Conception 2 since January of this year.  I got a PS Vita for Tales of Hearts (tons of fun), played Persona 4 Golden (tons of fun), and then I got to Conception 2.  You might be wondering, how did Conception 2 get in there (well, you may not have, but I was wondering)?  Despite the fact that you have to have a lot of babies to get places in the game, I've had a blast!  It's like Etrian Odyssey with stronger story elements revolving around relationships with a group of interesting women.  Yes, it is a dating sim/dungeon crawler.  And it tickles my 11 year old boy inside.

First Costume! Holo/Horo from Spice & Wolf

So, this was a long time ago, but I started, and stopped, costuming around summer of 2009.  I was introduced to Spice & Wolf, loved Holo, thought I could do her, and thus attempted it.  My mom about killed me because we worked so hard to get it together for Dragon Con.  And then I didn't wear it.  Why?  Because I was embarrassed.  That is the simple fact.  I expected everyone at Dragon Con to be professionals and amazing, and that plum wasn't the case.
