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!!

(>w<)

I'm addicted, leave me alone!
