Sorry I didnt post a journal when I got back from Disneyland and stuff, I just got way lazy. Oh, and also, sorry for defying the crowd and not posting a 'Happy New Year' Journal, cuz I really do wish you one. . .Like I said, just didnt want to sound like a broken record by repeating what half the dA population posted in THEIR journals
So, Disneyland: twas fun! I got to bond with my (future) brother-in-law a little more, but he's still pretty quiet. I've learned that he DOES have a hint of sarcastic humor though, so maybe he IS starting to open up more? The day we arrived in Cali, I cant tell you HOW nice it was to just take the day off and go chill at the beach. Coming from rainy, chilly Washington, the 60-something degree weather never felt more heavenly.
Ah, there's really nothing more therapeutically relaxing than walking barefoot along the beach and listening to 'Beyond the Sea' by Celtic Woman as the waves lap over your feet. . .Vanner, Kaimau and Yei LOVED the beach as well. I think Kai and his dad needed the vacation
When we actually got to Disneyland, my sis went and got a special handicapped pass (since she has type 1 diabetes) which allowed us to go through the exit's or fast pass lines for rides and get on ten times quicker than everyone else, so that was cool. OMG! this was my first time taking Ginny and Lenny to Disneyland, and they both had a blast! Ginny's favorite ride was, of course, Pirates of the Caribbean, an Lenny liked just about everything in Fantasy Land, but especially the Peter Pan ride ^^ HOLY FREAKIN DANG! The line to get on that ride is always SO insanely slow! O_______o just proves Peter Pan freakin rawks! XD!
O. . .M. . .G. . .then we went on Small World, and I had to restrain Ginny from shooting herself. Lenny loved it though, in fact, he's STILL humming the song XD! I got a nifty SW t-shirt, and even though its pink, it has Mulan and Peter Pan on it, so its redeemed. Oh, and SRAMZ went on her favorite ride, Indiana Jones, about a MILLION times! ^^ Oh Indi, how I adore thee. . .In fact, I got an Indiana Jones sweatshirt that says: "Where theres a whip, theres a way" and I LOVE it! I also bought an Alice In Wonderland inspired tea cup thats BEAUTIFUL! it has lilies on it and the saucer reminds me of a lily pad.
Speaking of lily pads, I can officially say that Princess Tiana has th most beautiful dress out of all the Disney princesses. Yes, even more beautiful than Belle's, and that one's YELLOW. AW GAW! I want to o to prom in tat dress!
Ho Hum. . .OH YES! Sakura Con ideas! I know I've talked to a few of my dA buddies about this, but for those of you who HAVENT heard, I think I may have FINALLY settled on an idea for a costume! Because I cant choose one specific character to cosplay as (I wanted to do Altair, but his outfit is WAY too expensive), I decided to do a tribute to Assasins Creed by creating my own OC outfit! SO far, I've found some amazing clothes on e-bay that could work for a modern/futuristic assasin:

So hopefully people are feeling generous for my b-day and are willing to contribute 10-20 dollars toward these purchases? *sparkly eyes* Also, I think I'll be enlisting the help of
Oh, and I guess nobody bothered to do that 'Draw Vanners Hair' contest, cuz no one submitted anything. Guess he'll just have to stay bald forever. . .Sadness
