This is Halloween

HiHi!!

Halloween Day, and I still have to go to school...
But one of my favorite things about being in college,
is seeing all the adults dressed up!!
I mean, we're all about the same age, 
but it's nice to see people who can laugh at themselves!!
Even though we're "adults,"
doesn't mean our Inner Child is gone!


The first person I saw in costume: Superman!
Poor guy, his bike had broken down...
Guess he won't be saving Lois Lane today...! 


Walked by THIS while heading to class!!
If I hadn't been running late, I SO would have played a few rounds!!
Bravo UNT for having Carnival Games on Halloween!!
(>u<)


And not JUST Carnival Games,
Cotton Candy too!
And all for FREE!!


All of the school groups are always getting into the events!
I got so much candy while trying to get to class!


Hehe, my shadow...
Wonder what I am for Halloween??


You know that there always has to be a V on Halloween!


My friend, Wil, trying on my Kigurumi in Movement!
Haha, he's a bit taller than me,
so it looked great on him!
"Willy-The-Pooh-Bear"
(^-^)


I have this thing when I get dressed up:
I have to take a picture!
We're all a bit narcissistic! Leave me alone!
(>u<)


Just showing my love to my Hundred Acre Wood pals!
Pooh Bear, Pooh Bear, && Eeyore!!


Family & Friends back home getting ready for a night of
Trick or Treating!!


I miss them all so much!
I really wish I could be there!!!
(>.<)


Haha, they were "Chollas" for Halloween!

Nico being all Ninja
& my Nicky being Sub-Zero!
(He didn't even know)

& my little Cora walking around as an
Adorable Pink Dinosaur!!

Well, I hope you all had a GREAT Halloween Night 
full of Treats and Fear!

日本に行きましょう!! (Parts 3&4)

HiHi!!

Here are videos 3 & 4 of my Japanese Journeys!! 


In this video, we complete our first day in Japan!
We travel through Asakusa and Yoyogi, 
visiting Sensou-ji and other shrines.
We ALSO have our first Adventure!!!
...My friends and I make an ATTEMPT at translating a menu that is all Kanji...
(o.o)


This next video consists of our 2nd day in Japan.
We have a Calligraphy day, which was tons of fun,
and my friend led our 1st field trip to Kabuki!!!
The performance was beautiful and so amazing! Also, there were a TON of Middle School girls...
We end this rainy day by moving into a new room... Just for the night.
But it was totally worth it...
If you can't tell from the video, we were pretty excited about sleeping in a Tatami styled room!!
(^-^)

MEK Halloween Matsuri 2012

 HiHi!!

So, last year, my roommate (Kim) & I 
went to the MuEpsilonKappa's Annual Halloween Matsuri.
We had a lot of fun, so I figured, why not go again??
Sadly, Kim wasn't able to go,
but I was able to convince Stephanie and Stacy to come!
We were all hungry before the event, 
so I decided that we should eat at Subway,
just so that I could bother the guys working that night! (^-^)
They were kinda surprised to see me in my Pooh Bear Kigurumi!

Saw this Adorable Little Guy!!
The Halloween Matsuri was lots of fun again!
I got a bunch of candy, and I sang karaoke!
But my favorite part was catching up with my friends.
I haven't seen Stacy in forever,
& some of my other friends from my old Japanese class were there!


Besides all of my candy,
I also won this adorable Mameshiba!!
He was worth only 100coins, so I'm surprised no one had gotten him!


I was so excited to finally have a reason to where my Kigurumi!!
It was a little chilly outside, so I felt all nice and warm wearing it!
I wore if for the rest of the night, it's just so comfy!

日本に行きましょう!!(Parts 1&2)

Hi, hi!!

So, I've been wanting to do Youtube videos ever since I made my account, 
And now I have a reason to!
Like I promised, I decided to turn my Japan experience into Youtube videos!!
I have NO idea how many videos the trip will cover, 
but I'm going to keep putting them together all the way up until the final day! 


Remember: I took over 1,000 pictures and videos while in Japan! 
So, it may take a little while to get them done! 
But I'm trying my very best!! 


These are all the same pictures on my Facebook, 
but all the videos are brand new!! 
The music is KyariPamyuPamyu BECAUSE while in Japan,
I bought a CD of hers so I felt obligated to use its music!!

She's Beyond Good And Evil


HiHi!!

The second production this semester was 
a play written and directed by students:

"SHE'S BEYOND GOOD AND EVIL: A SERIES OF PLAYS BASED ON THE MUSIC OF ST. VINCENT" 

I couldn't help but think how amazing it was to hear 
that Lauren's show was going to be performed!
I was so happy for her!
I was quite excited to see the production,
and I've got to say,
it definitely lived past my expectations!!
I was drawn in from the beginning,
and when it ended,
I wanted more!
The Cast & Crew
Not too long after the first showing,
there was news that the show had been picked up at a Theatre in Houston!
How amazing!! 
I just can't stop thinking how great Lauren must be feeling;
being able to see her work on stage!

It's times like these I start feeling energized about my own future!
I would just love to already be working and fulfilling my own dreams!!
GAH! 
I don't want to be patient, future!!

Nothing but Busy...

HiHi!!

Well, that title pretty much sums up my life since school started.... (-_-)

 I was originally signed up for 18credit hours at school, but I eventually dropped a class because of work. Because of my crazy schedule, I've only been closing the store, basically every night... It started getting really hard to get my homework done, or any sleep, so I had no choice but to drop to 15hours.

 This semester, I'm taking Intermediate Japanese, Movement I, Voice I, Stagecraft, and Theatre History. I've also started with the UNT Japanese Club as well as being a conversation partner with UNT's Intensive English Language Institute (IELI). I'm so busy every single day, but I'm loving every minute of it!!

 As an aspiring Voice Actress, my Voice class has become my absolute favorite class, along with Movement! I'm learning so much, and it's great to be improving on my craft. As for my other classes; I thought I would be scared working in the shop, but when I finally got to use the saws I was so pumped!  It helps that I love the smell of wood... And my Theatre History class is so intriguing!

 But my favorite part about this semester: being a part of the Theatre Department! With having only Theatre classes, I've been able to make a lot of friends! And seeing as how this is my major, I am so happy! Not only that, everyone is so freaking cool! There are just so many great and talented people in the UNT Theatre Department, I look forward to going to class!!


 Now, Japanese is a whole different story... The course this summer passed so quickly, it had no chance to stick in my brain... So, these past few months have been a lot of catch up for me... 

 All-in-all, I've had a pretty hectic, yet exciting semester so far! But I still spend every free moment in my room watching shows or napping... (~.~)

New Glasses!

HiHi!!

Ok, I KNOW that I've been THINKING of wanting to get a new pair of glasses.
I was tired of my glasses, I mean, I'd had them for more than 2years now! 
Well... I guess the gods must of been listening, because I now have a new pair!

A couple weeks ago, while at work, my glasses had this very random & epic death...
I mean, they just kind of DIED in my hands. 
...It was pretty depressing...


So! I went the following day to talk to the Optical Examiners on-campus,
and boy were they amazingly helpful! 
By the end of the week, I had an appointment!
I had to have all the tests done in order to get a new prescription,& it was lots of fun! 
But then again, I'm one of those strange people that love visiting doctors...
Found out that my left eye is stronger than my right, 
but ONLY when corrected... Otherwise, my right eye is the better one???
Uhm... Or something like that....


I got my eyes dilated!!
Sure the sun gave me a bit of a headache, but I thought it was so cool...



Then, FINALLY, after having to go 2weeks without glasses, they came in!! 
The frames are a bit bigger and more circular than my other ones, 
but I love their aqua color! 
As soon as I walked into the office, these glasses caught my eye, 
so I'm really happy I was able to get them!

Spotify

HiHi!!

I just wanted to let everyone in on my newest obsession:
SPOTIFY
My friend, Carolyn, asked us in DATP to get one, 
& I thought, "Why not...?"
But this is what happened:

And I can listen to every one of these songs
over & over again....
&&&& I can pick the movie/scene nearly every time!!

I'm addicted, leave me alone!

Cinderella

HiHi!!

UNT's first show of the Fall Semester: Cinderella!!


 Ok, now Cinderella is actually my least favorite Disney princess, but I still love the story! (I even wore my Little Mermaid shirt to the show >v<) Actually, every remake I've seen of Cinderella is amazing! So I was pretty excited to see this performance.
 I went to a morning performance, only because every other show was SOLD OUT. Surprisingly, there were a lot of little girls with their parents, all dressed up and being adorable. 


 Although some of the graphics were a bit corny, play itself was hilarious, and I was laughing the whole time! The actors were great, and dancing was fantastic! I enjoyed myself, and even if it was promoted as "A Play for Young People," it was the college students that seemed to enjoy it the most!

秋まつり

HiHi!!

Today was Dallas' anuual Aki Matsuri!! 
(Fall Festival)
This was the first time that I had ever gone, and I had such a great time! There were so many great people, such great food, lots of games and entertainment, and tons of adorable Shiba-Inus!! 

桜もち!
This was my Sakura Mochi that was so yummy! 
It's wrapped in the Sakura Leaf, and is a great Fall treat! 
昼ご飯:狐うどん
This was my lunch: some very delicious Kitsune Udon! 
This made me really miss Japanese food! 
(>.<)


There weren't many, but this was one of the cosplayers we met today! 
Besides Inuyasha, we also saw a Huruhi Suzumiya, and Mio & Yui from K-On!



The Baylor Students had a booth where you could play Janken with them!
This is my friend, Stephanie, playing with our friend, Kenta! 
We met Kenta while in Japan, & right now he's studying at Baylor, 
so it was really great to see him this weekend! 
(She said she really wanted to play, just so that she could hit him with a paper fan...!)
  
Saw some Okinawan Traditional Drummers Perform
>>The music really made me think of Naruto.... (>.<) <<



Then there was some Japanese Traditional Dance


And then our friends from Baylor performed Soran Bushi!!!


They're did such a great job! 
The crowd cheered throughout the whole performance!!


UNT's Japanese Culture Organization (JCO) is also supposed to perform Soran Bushi!
I'm so excited to start learning now!!
Maybe I can get Kenta to help me learn the dance????

Finding Nemo 3D!

HiHi!!

I went to see Finding Nemo in 3D!!


I love that although I hadn't seen it in forever, I still knew every word...
Nemo may not be one of my favorite Pixar films, but it's still such an amazing movie!
I still get choked up at the very end when Nemo returns to say he loves his dad.
And while I was watching it, I remembered the last time I had seen it in theaters:
I was in 5th grade!
And I remember how everyone kept reciting the infamous "E-Scape'!" line!!
Wow, I make it sound like I'm so old, haha! 
But, overall, it was great to see it in theaters again! 
It was cute, it was great, but I still don't like 3D movies much... (-_-)

Phone Cases

HiHi!!

This summer I finally got my upgrade & entered the 21st century & decided to buy an iPhone4!! 
In Japan, I was able to buy a really cute case with K-On's Azunyan & Yui, 
so I was really excited to get my new phone! 
However, because I'm freaking clumsy with my phone,
 I decided that it would be best to buy a case that was a bit more protective...

I ended up buying 2...
The first one was this freaking adorable dinosaur turtle... thing that I just could NOT resist!
And the second one was a little red penguin that was calling my name!

Summer Overview

HiHi!!

It was pretty crazy, and that's really the only way I can describe it!!!

 Right after school got out at the end of May, for about a month, I was at UNT taking Japanese II. I moved into an apartment with Kim, her mom, and Nate... & that was... interesting...? Let's just say, the end of Maymester couldn't have come soon enough...
 June 5th, my class met for our Final exam and sushi, then I was off to Dallas to prepare for departure!! On June 6th, I was on a plane with my friend, heading out to Narita International Airport!!! From the 6th to the 29th, I was in Japan, and... Wow... It was AMAZING!!! The, having to take classes and exams and stuff pretty much sucked, but actually BEING in Japan, was great! Now, I won't go into much detail, because I'm planning on making some youtube videos with all of my pictures and videos, so stay tuned!!

 After Japan, I returned home. In SanAntonio, I spent about 2weeks "relaxing." And by that, I mean, cleaning the house and making it "Grandma Proof" for their visit. July 11th was my niece, Coraline's 1st Birthday, so, naturally, we had a huge party in celebration! Then after having 2separate birthday parties, we drove up to Dallas to celebrate my uncle's 50th birthday! This weekend was crazy: seeing a bunch of family members, lots of driving, and lots of cake! Then, on that following Monday, I left for California with my Dad for 2weeks.

 While in California, I got to catch up on my NCIS series, got my new Build-A-Bear, && went to Disneyland for 2days! I flew back to SanAntonio August 1st, but the next day was on another plane with my mom and brother heading out to Florida!! We were headed to Disney World...

 This summer marks my 4th visit to Disney World, & I still love it!! Our party included: my mom, little brother, Nicky; his best friend, Nico, and Nico's family (mom, sister, brother)... It was pretty crazy... I was the tour guide, and I did my best to give everyone what they wanted, but by the end of the weekend, I was about ready to strangle some of them... Nevertheless, I had a fun time! And after visiting all of the parks, we returned to SanAntonio, and I was finally able to have some relaxation time! That is, until the following weekend, when I attended SanJapan Mach 5!!

 It was a lot of fun! I stayed at the hotel with my friends, the Harkiewiczes!! It was nice to see all of my friends, and all of the panels were great! This was definitely the most relaxing weekend of my summer!

 And about a week later, I was on the road again headed back to Dallas! I moved into my Dorm on the 25th of August, back to work at Subway on the 26th, and school started on the 29th...

 So, there you have it!! This summer, I was a world traveller!! From Denton, to Dallas, to Japan (and all over the island), home to SanAntonio,  back to Dallas, then to California, on to Florida, returning to San Antonio -again-, then BACK to Dallas, and to school in Denton....
Lots of fun, craziness, and pictures!!! Can't wait to see what the rest of the year has in store for me!!

What Happened To The Summer??? O.o

HiHi!!

 .....Seriously.... What Happened!?!?!

  I guess I must have been SO BUSY that everything just flew by so quickly!! It's crazy to think that I'll be back at school next week! But, you know, I'm happy that I'll finally have time to myself. From traveling abroad, to celebrating back-to-back birthdays, flying across the country, and Anime conventions... Let's just say I have had quite an adventurous summer...! 
 Now that I FINALLY have free time, I'm gonna have to catch up on events from this summer! 
Till Then!

REEER MADNESS!!!!

Spring 1936:

  High school sweethearts, Jimmy and Mary are pushed into the new drug sensation, "MARIJUANA!"
The drugs are sweeping throughout the high school and causing mayhem with the help of the sly salesmen, Jack; his beaten wife, Mae; the sexy Blanche; and the deranged Ralph- from a hit and run accident, to manslaughter, attempted rape, and a dramatic descent into madness.
 This Rated-R production is a must see for any Theatre lover!


  This Spring, UNT's Theatre Department performed the musical that has claimed its place as my absolute favorite show to have worked on- Reefer Madness! I had never worked costumes in a show before, but it was great fun and an amazing experience! 
 No wonder Theatre people don't have any personal space! That weekend, I saw so many butts, thongs, and boobs to last me a good while!! ^-^
 Personally, I don't think I would have been brave enough to parade around on stage in my underwear, but everyone was so amazing!! The musical talents were fantastic, and the costumes and choreography were astounding! When I got my costume list and on it was, "Harem Pants, Jesus Robe, Silver Chains, Lady Liberty, and Goat Man" ...... I had never been so confused in my life...... -___-

 I'm glad was able to be apart of this production; it was a great experience: I made a ton of friends, and it made me really want to be involved in the Theatre department! I don't care if I get acting parts in the plays, I just want to try my best at every little thing I can, on or off the stage!! ^o^

My Lazy Day With Link!

However lame, nerdy, or "forever-alone" this sounds; since I had absolutely NOTHING to do one Spring Break day, I played Zelda: Ocarina of Time ALL DAY!!! >v<

Link is MY Hero of Time!!!
^o^
 You see, I've been wondering for a long while how long it would take me to complete the game without having to do all of the side-stories or without ever leaving the Nintendo. SO, since I didn't work, Kim was gone, and I had the whole day and room to myself, I decided to try! With only taking an hour break to have dinner, it took me about 8hours and 45minutes to complete the game. I was totally thinking it'd only take me 6hours, but it was ok with me! I had such an awesome time, and it was really easy since I've beaten the game a bunch of times already! I know, I'm such a college kid- party animal!! Haha, but it's ok kuz I enjoyed myself! I love Ocarina of Time! Best Zelda game, EVER!!!

Working Girl!

 You may have guessed from the title, but this post is obviously about Subway! I just got my first part-time job there! Since Kim has been working there since last semester, she was able to pull some strings toe get me a job! I know understand how it feels to not want to go to work... Haha, oh well! I need the money for the Japan trip, which seems to be going pretty well! Although it seems that I'm going to have to pay for the trip myself, I'm hoping that with this job I'll be able to get enough money for my summer tuition!! >.<
 Anyhoos, I'm really enjoying this job! Everyone's pretty cool, even if they are mainly druggies, they're just awesome people! And the work is real easy... I work mainly nights, especially closing, and everything's been going smoothly. It gets tiring every now-and-then, but I'm always able to wear a smile. And some of the people may be frustrating at times, but work is work, and I'll just have to deal with it for now. I'm just happy that I was fortunate enough to get this job, sure it's just sandwich making and pays minimum wage, but there are a lot of people who are unemployed right now in America, and I'm one of the lucky few! Oh, I'm also going to try and use Subway as an opportunity to ween myself back onto meats for Japan, so I'm planning on trying all of our sandwiches!! Too bad employees still have to pay 1.08$ for our 6inch, but I'll deal. Well, wish me luck at my new job!! ^-^

Voice Acting Workshop w/ Crispin Freeman (Part 2)


Scene Study Class:

  Before coming to the classes, Crispin sent an email asking us to record ourselves reading a monologue so that he can hear what our voice sounded like. So, after a short lunch break, we headed back to our classroom and started working in partners. Crispin set us all up and started handing out pages and naming the characters, "You're Alice & you're the Red Queen," I was so jealous, wishing I could play a British Alice! "You're Nala & you get Simba," I screamed this time... I just LOVE Lion King, ok!? Then he came over to my partner and handed him his script, "You're Gru and-" I got super excited, "Wait... Gru, like, Gru?? Despicable Me, Gru!?" "And you're Margo." I've gotta say, I was content....
  Is it sad that I was saying everyone else's lines with them?? I mean, they were lines from The Lion King! Of course, I knew every word! But it was so great to watch the other groups work their scenes! And Crispin was being really helpful and giving everyone a push in the right direction. And he asked every single one of us,"Now, what are you trying to get from your scene partner??" Having begun his training on-stage, he really knew his stuff, and I loved getting advise from him.
 Then it was our turn to perform. I was pretty confident, seeing as how I had few lines, and our reading went real well! When we had finished, Crispin even praised me on being able to keep my character during all of our retakes! Yay! I love getting praised!! ^-^
"We're not going to deliver cookies until we do dance class..."
 The second round, we switched around partners, and this time, I got to play Coraline! I was pretty happy, especially because Coraline is not only my sister's favorite movie, but the name of my first niece! But this scene proved to be a bit more difficult. This time, Crispin wanted us to work for it and to really dig deep into our characters! I don't think we did super amazing this time, but I'm pretty happy with the recordings that we achieved!
 After everyone had finished we started to pack up and everyone just sat around and talked, while I gave an interview for Izobel. But, my favorite part about the whole class was that Izzy seemed to really like me! I mean, she could have just been trying to be nice, but she started asking me if I was going to be coming back and that she really wanted to see me work some Anime scenes! That made me so happy!! I really wish I COULD come back!!
 Oh, I wish Crispin had more classes when I was actually free!! But, all-in-all, this was the highlight of my Spring Break! I can't wait to get to practice!! Of course, I can't upload the recordings Crispin sent me, since they're confidential; however, one day I'll be a big-time voice actress and my voice will be recorded in all sorts of shows!! So, I guess you'll just have to wait! ^-^

"I almost fell down a well yesterday, Mom...  I could have DIED...!"


Voice Acting Workshops w/ Crispin Freeman! (Part1)

During Spring Break, I was given such a wonderful opportunity: to take two voice acting classes with Crispin Freeman!
My friend, Stacy, was able to get us free plane tickets, thanks to her father's frequent flyer miles, & I was able to get us somewhere to stay- my dad's place! It was perfect! All we had to do was pay for the two classes, which were an easy 380$, total! There was no way we could turn this down! So, for weeks and weeks, we were extremely excited to spend a full day workshopping our voice acting skills and building our connections and foundations with 6fellow voice acting dreamers! 

Sunday~March 18th, 2012
Archetype Class:
  Stacy & I got to class 10minutes early; luckily, the building where the classes were being held were only about a 30minute drive from my dad's house. We eagerly waited for the other students and our dear teacher to make their appearance! Finally, just before 10AM hit, Crispin walked through the door followed by his wife. Also, I never knew that Crispin was married, but I have to say that Izobel is so sweet and adorable! The two of them make such a cute couple!!
  Anyhoos! The point of this class was for us to figure out what type of characters we are able to portray; as Voice Actors, we will need to be able to know how to sell ourselves. Crispin brought with him audition pieces from several games (none that I've played) and we were instructed to pick two characters that we believed fit our voice type. I knew right away I needed to find little boys or young girls, this was going to be easy! Well, so I thought...
  I went straight for the fantasy world and found myself a bright and uppity girl named Lolo. She seemed perfect, I'd be able to get her lines easy! Then I tried to switch it up a bit and go for a princess! I found myself in White Knight Chronicles (which, by the way, looks like a great game!) and chose Princess Cisna. I was ready to try them on the mic, even if I was a little nervous! When I got up there, I read for Lolo first. Crispin said that I had matched my voice perfectly, all I needed to do was get the emotional character, you know the acting part... Haha... So, we had a few takes, but what really took the longest time was that I spoke way too fast. Me, speaking fast?? Like I haven't heard that before! So, I tried really, really hard to slow myself down, and after a few takes, we got a good recording! Then I went for Cisna. I had matched the profile and the voice and I was able to read the lines well, but what Crispin told me made a ton of sense: I could play Cisna, but I just wasn't quite comfortable with that type of character. Izobel then made a comment that made me smile, "You're more suited for the scrappy, tom-boy girls! The ones that make fun of the boys and kickass!" Haha, well that's great 'cuz I love the scrappy characters best! ^-^
  For Stacy's round one, she chose a little boy from the same game Lolo was from, but when she went up to the mic Crispin stopped her, turned to me and said, "Lisette, go ahead and read that." I was kinda surprised, but I did it and what did we learn? I would be the person playing the little kids and Stacy would usually be placed as my older sister. Before they even knew that Stacy and I had come to the classes together, they said that we needed to work together and switch characters, so we did! I gave her Cisna, and I took the little boy! I also found the character Izobel had suggested for me, Cisna's scrappy best friend, Yulie, and I loved her!
Yulie from White Knight Chronicles
(That's right! I'm a Badass NOT a Princess!)
 I was the first one at the mic this time and I chose to put little Tik first. It was super easy for me to find his character, having been a crybaby when I was little, I got his lines down in one take, in the second take Crispin asked me to be more whiny and dramatic, and when we got it and he burst out saying, "Now THAT was GOLD!" I couldn't help but smile. Then it was Yulie's turn, Izobel was happy. It was obvious that the scrappy, best friend, Yulie was more my type than Cisna, and I had a lot more fun! After the first class was over, I wanted more! I loved being surrounded by fellow dreamers, and I couldn't wait till the second class to begin!

Happy Spring

 Wow, to think that it's already April and only about a month and a half till my Freshmen year of college is OVER!! It's gone by so quickly thank god and it's been so much fun and stressful at the same time!
 I haven't been able to post recently, since before Spring Break, because everything just picked up so quickly! But this week, I'm pretty free and will be going home, so I'll be able to catch up! I wish I could have taken a lot more pictures of everything that's been going on, but boy! has a lot happened in the last couple of weeks: Spring Break in California, Voice Acting classes with Crispin Freeman, getting my first part-time job, Nicky's BoyScout crossover, playing Ocarina of Time (again), discovering iTunes, prepping for the Japan trip, tons of new Anime, &&& "REEFER MADNESS"!!!! >v<
Everything has just been so crazy and on top of each other, I've had hardly anytime for rest... But, each of these events deserves the full story to be told, so I'll be posting about them throughout the rest of the week! 

See Ya Then!
