| There's so many things that I feel like are coming out at once. Like, my GPA is exactly .02pts too low to be accepted into the college of education. OMG. I don't know if they'll let it slide or what because the four credit class I'm taking this spring is "nontransferable credits." If they don't accept my GPA I don't know what I'll do. Knowing me, I probably won't go back to school if I have to wait another whole year to apply just to get my GPA up [.02 pts]. I just figured this out (I know, I'm kind of slow) so I checked on the last day to send in applications and it's MARCH 1!!! HOMG. That means that I have to take my PRAXIS, do my interview thing, and send in all the papers by the first!! And I don't even know if they'll accept me.
Dear God WHYYY??

| Sometimes I wonder why some things happen.
Like, why did Andrew's scholarship get taken away because he was 2 credits short of being full-time.
And why didn't he figure this out sooner.
I look at the future like a big empty canvas. I have no idea what will be there. Some days are good days where we have no problems and go to bed with smiles and have sweet dreams. But days where there is so much worry and doubt cause me to wake up every few hours and check what reality I'm in. I wonder about where we're going to live next year when our lease is up, how Andrew's going to afford college when he won't let me help him, will we be able to go on that dream trip next spring like we planned, where is dinner and lunch coming from..the list goes on and on.
We spent so much time trying to make that small room a home. I cleaned all the walls and painted it with hope that we'd be there for a long, long time. We added curtains and bookshelves and mirrors and all of these things that I've wanted in a home but never bothered with. How can I just walk away from all this? How can someone just say we have to leave?
I wish I could talk to Andrew about it, but he's already so worried about his school stuff. He was looking for jobs earlier today and finally applied to the Geek Squad, even though he really doesn't approve of their service. I don't know how to help him. I don't know what to put in the canvas.
We'll see.

| So, I'm a big, big Halloween fan. My best friend and I both are, and every year we try to team up to do a cosplay together. This year I had soo much trouble getting any ideas at all! Some were just too impractical or expensive and others required too much work (ex: staying out of the sun for 6+ months!). So I've come up with a few possibilities to work with 
  
I also wanted to try a Speed Racer idea! I like the retro design of the anime and well, on a more immature point, I want to wear a cute helmet. 
I love the Snow White picture! I love her makeup and (what you can see of) her costume! I once was Snow White in elementary school and my mommy made my costume  I loved it to pieces but obviously I can't stay ten forever! haha~ I've seen a lot of kind of crappy Snow White cosplays but this one is really pretty, so maybe I'll try it.
Err..the second one is actually a devart I found while browsing a fansite. I really wanted to cosplay Ariel earlier but didn't know how to incorporate the tail. When I saw this picture it made a lot of sense to give Ariel separated flippers instead of one tail. Brilliant idea 
Nel Tu is a character from Bleach. Haha, I totally would have to exercise a little more to get the right body, but I loved the design of her character from when I first read the scanlation of the manga! It looked really challenging to get all of the makeup and hair correct (and the on top of that the mask! bleehhh!), but also would look really cool if it all came together nicely.
Just sharing my ideas briefly on the upcoming season! Hopefully if I ever get around to choosing an idea, I'll post the aftermath here. For now, I'll leave you with this:
