So, yea, it's my birthday, well, was my birthday (it's already 11PM my time so I guess it's about over now). But yea, turned the big 2-1 and thought to share it with everyone. It was fun. I didn't go out drinking or anything (i could if i wanted too but that's just not my style). Instead I went to the casino with some friends (the casino gave me $20 for my birthday and they had a promotion thing going so i got ANOTHER $20 later on). Unfortunately I didn't win squat. Then me and the friends went to B-Dubs for dinner, and I paid for it, because my friends are always so good to me so I wanted to be good to them too.

Anyways, that's about it. Just wanted to let anyone who reads my journal know.

While the ending to Avatar had to be the most awesome thing ever, I was still disappointed. Why? NO ZUTARA! That's why. I knew it, I just knew that we wouldn't get it, especially after The Ember Island Players episode. They mocked Zutara in there. MOCKED I SAY!

I was insulted. It was like Bryke had said "Haha, we fooled you suckers, we hooked you in by making Zutara seem plausible, but it's not! GOTCHA!"

So, needless to say I will NOT be lining Bryke's pockets by buying any of the seasons of Avatar or anything. If they ever make another series, I think I might just not watch it out of pure spite and hatred. And I hate how all the ships I love never work out in the end.

*sigh* At least if it's not canon, I'll always have fanon. Still, I'm pissed, so to Bryke I have a few choice words:

SCREW YOU GUYS!

The wonderful BasTaBluE drew fanart for me! How awesome is that? You can check it out by following this link:

Make sure you check out the rest of her gallery too! Her work is really REALLY good!

Well, I've got a couple of new things up. A Bleach pic of Rukia and Ichigo, and one of me for my Deviant ID. They're pretty good. I had fun playing around with the different Brush sizes and the shading and stuff.

Ah, now for cosplay plans. I've definitely decided that I'm going to try and pull of the Shinigami version of Rukia Kuchiki for Youmacon 2008. Though I've decided to commission a costume rather than attempt to make my own. I've also found a place to buy a really good Rukia wig. Now all I need to get is her Sode no Shirayuki, which will be no easy feat, that's for sure...but my geeky little heart is still hopeful.

Anyway, that's about all the updates I have for now. Ja ne!
