I've been falling into the abyss of the DC universe, and to a much lesser extent, the Marvel universe. I'm so glad I did. It really took a kick like this to remind me of all the awesome things America comes out with. It's been ZOMG JAPAN for so long that I think I really needed this. XD

Related news:
- THOR WAS AWESOME. I WANTED LOKI TO PUT HIM IN A DRESS, THOUGH. Norse mythology, u so crazy.
- X-MEN FIRST CLASS WAS UTTERLY FANTASTIC and I'm going to freak out somehow, hopefully with fanart.
- DICK GRAYSON IS MY FAVORITE COMIC BOOK CHARACTER. He's a beautiful, beautiful man. In a leotard.
- YOUNG JUSTICE is a beautiful, beautiful show. My Jesse McCartney fangirl flames are being fueled, though. And that's probably not good.
- Tumblr is partially to blame for fueling my superhero fangirl flames. (Emma is mostly to blame.) Anyway, here's my tumblr: www.tophatting.tumblr.com/

Unrelated news, but equally important:
- CATHERINE IS THE MOST AWESOME PS3 GAME EVER AND I'M FREAKING OUT, MAN. I'm stuck on Bridezilla, buuuut I'm working on that.
- I'm researching Italian theatre, venetian masks, and stock characters like the Arlecchino. Anyone know of a good art database or site where I could find more information?

Okay, I'm trying again! Hopefully I'll remember to stick around. Thanks for the watches and faves while I've been gone, but I've got too many messages to sort through, so I think I'll start fresh. .A.

School's out, and I've already spent a month doing nothing. :3 Well, I did finish some anime, so that's good. I'm about to do a dump of the pretty art thingies I've done this year, as well as the new cosplays I'm working on. I think I'm becoming one of those crazy cosplay people.

Other things goin' on right now:
- Urge to compensate for severe lack of Tokyo Majin and March Story fanart
- Loss of resistance to the void that is Homestuck (On to Act 4?)
- Loss of wisdom teeth (still recovering)
- On and off, I've been making a cosplay blog thing of Persona 4 as the in-game year goes on. It's been fun! www.youtube.com/playlist?list=…

Well, yeah. I've got a lot of art to post, as well as some cosplay pictures. But I need to get everything organized after being gone forrrrr... 3+ months.

As for what I've been doing: homework. Cause, uh. Only 3 of my classes aren't AP/IB. Next semester only 2. So that's fun.

Also, videya games:
I beat Fragile Dreams for Wii, and bawled my eyes out 5+ times. It's... it's such a beautiful game. I need to do fanart ASAP.
Persona 3 Portable is awesome. I'm in the last month of it, grinding to beat the last boss.
GUESS WHO SHOULDN'T BE EXCITED FOR CATHERINE BUT TOTALLY IS? ME.

Hope everyone's enjoying winter break, 'cause I sure am. |D

...Is that my last journal over there? Was it written in April? Wow. I'm sure good at keeping on top of things.

Guess I should say I had a super-cool summer, and I beat Persona 3 and Devil Survivor. And did summer homework. Not much else going on now besides super-busy school. Yaaay.
I've been sketching a lot, and I have a lot of cool ideas that I'll probably end up being too lazy to do...

I'm really looking forward to Anime Banzai now that I'm nearly ready for it. c: I ended up having more money saved than I thought, so I'll actually have some spending money for it. XD My Yosuke uniform's been shipped, so I should get it soon-ish. *is excited*

The Hetalia DVD comes out in a couple days, woo~ I'm going to put on my England cosplay when I go out and get it. I'm hoping someone will make my life if they recognize it.


Planned cosplays:
Joshua (The World Ends With You): Finished
England (Axis Powers Hetalia): Finished
Derp Derp Blue Spirit (Avatar: The Last Airbender): Finished enough
Yosuke (Persona 4): Waiting for uniform, need to make headphones and glasses

I WANNA BE WITH YOU AND MAKE BELIEVE WITH YOU

...I should prolly update this.

Gahhh I'm nearly neck-deep in a Persona 3 obsession, yet I can't play until after next Friday because I'm studying for an AP US History test. AND I'M ON DECEMBER 4TH. GAAAAAH.

In other news, my art style's been going all over the place lately, I'm experimenting with more cartoony styles I guess. :U I also really need to get back to inking and coloring drawings, I haven't done it in months... I'll probably post what I've been doing lately at some point. (I've drawn a LOT of Ryoji lately...)

I'm already planning my Yosuke cosplay for the con in October, I'm guessing I'll order the costume soon just because I want it... Still gotta find pretty headphones and glasses that work.

...Also I want to make a Ryoji scarf. Just 'cause.
