Weekend in Atlanta

Thanks to God, the weekend was a success at Anime Weekend Atlanta...we were well received and people really seemed to like what we had to offer at our booth a lot! Too bad my digital camera broke...I wanted to take lots of pictures...of costumers and other cosplayers, but, oh well... I regretted not cosplaying at all...and not being motivated enough to better prepare for this convention...I had been so depressed...but now I feel a little more energized about this endeavor...so, let's see what happens!

Apart from spending time working at the convention, I went swing dancing with Mike at GA Tech...we watched "Just Like Heaven" and rented "Sahara"...Also, Mike got to try on his new wardrobe...I'm glad he liked MOST of it!!! (^_-)v

Here are a couple of pictures taken with my camera phone...


Smiling by Mike's computer...lovely glow...


Catching a gimpse of my own reflection on my sunglasses while heading back to Florida.


All in all, I had a nice time this weekend...I need to rest a little tomorrow and then get in the production mood I guess...I need to do something while I find a "real" job! (^_^) hehehe

What does Your Name Mean?

What Does Your Name Mean?

Heaven

Here's the translated lyrics to "Heaven" the Ayumi Hamasaki song that is playing over and over in my head and now in my blog.

What you offered straight to me
With a smile for the last time
Was just so beautiful
That I gave way to tears
Surely, that day
The two of us touched love
We sought for each other
Lost ourselves at times
And found each other at last
So whatever result may be waiting for us
It's nothing but
Destiny
la la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la la la la
In the sky you set out for
Stars are shining tenderly upon me
Stay by my side, my love
Crossing over time and changing your shape
You see? The future we haven't yet seen
Remains here like this
Stay by my side, my love
Crossing over time and changing your shape
The future we haven't yet seen
Remains here
Trust me, my love
You live within me
So I'll never
Say good-bye to you
Surely, that day
The two of us touched love.

One Cool Job

Before you all get too excited...no, I haven't found a cool job yet...but today, thanks to Mike, Elaine and I got to play "fashion stylists" and spent the whole morning browsing the stores for guy clothes...and I thought, man, this could be a really cool job! Lucky those people who get to buy clothes for the stars! (^_-)v We had lots of fun making good outfits and shopping for Mike...can't wait for him to try them on! I tell you, watching all these Korean & Asian dramas has helped me a lot in the guy fashion department...hehehe Love the clothes those guys wear...When choosing Mike's new wardrobe, we kept it a bit on the conservative side, because we need to please the client...but conservative doesn't mean boring (at least to us!)...we put together a bunch of outfits that are looking F-I-N-E! So, Maikeru, thanks for having us shop for you...it was lots of fun!!! (^_^)v (Your new wardroe will probably last you until your next b-day!)

Ravings of a Picky Girl

Okay...I'm starting to feel that maybe I am in the wrong place...I have given up "looking" for a guy...but everywhere I turn, everywhere I go...there's NO ONE who catches my eye (except for the ones who are already taken or gay)...What's wrong with the rest of the guys?!?! Why is it so hard for nice/worthy guys to have a cool hairdo and have some fashion sense?!?!


Before I continue...to those who might be "against" browsing or creating a profile on an online personals site...sorry...but I have like three different profiles in three different sites (if not more)...mostly just to see what's out there...I haven't been able to find anyone I deem interesting, appealing, or worthy to meet yet...and probably I'll never will...but oh, well...what can I say? I'm extremely bored...blame this on the fact that my computer freezes everytime I try to play with The Sims 2...therefore I haven't been able to invest time in the relationships within my digital families...I've had to forget about the people I've created... Thank God that He is not like that! (Although sometimes you wonder if He has forgotten...things seem to move so slow sometimes...especially in the love department! Not that I'm expressing any doubts...I know God has planned everything as best as He can...He must have His reasons why I still haven't met the one for me...in this case the "only God knows" phrase truly applies!)

Anyway, I had a point...let me get back on track...me at the wrong place...okay...See? I haven't come across a single profile of guys living in Orlando (or even other parts of Florida) that I'm interested in...so far, the Aussies are winning...why isn't that a surprise?! I tell you, I must have an eye for foreigners...it's like in my veins or something...give me a bunch of pictures and leave it to me to be attracted to the ones who DON'T live in this country...What can you do? You like what you like...and in my case...I might be single for a long time 'cause I can't afford another trip to Australia, UK, Korea or Japan...God will have to make a way and bring me that foreign cutie close to me somehow?!?!! Aaaaaaargh! Where is he? I need a job.

To the One I Miss The Most

...darkness seems to be everywhere these days...I feel the worse wishing you were here to comfort me...to share my pain...my desperation...I have become so numb...I'm only left to wonder if your kiss and embrace will bring me back to life...Why won't you appear...and wipe away my tears?

I have updated the look of my blog! What do you guys think? I don't know how I ended up in this girl's website, but as it turned out, she designs cool skins for blogs...I have "messed up" with her code trying to make it more personal, but because I don't know much about "doing code" this is all I was able to do...I'll try to tweak it a bit more as I go... Hope you like it though.
Thanks to May of Maystar Designs for helping me get a new look for my blog!

Korean Drama Review

Sang Doo, Let's Go To School

Because of our recent discovery of Bi, we ended up watching another drama where he plays the main character Sang Doo... at the beginning of the show, I wasn't expecting to be so emotionally caught up in the story. This drama is different from other dramas that I've watched because it had more characters and sub-plots and although it centers around a main love story, it made you care about the other characters' lives as well. All characters are very likable (with the exception of Moon Sera the Sang Doo's uncle - they made me so mad!) and there's a ton of funnny moments in the show, but there's also a lot of sad, very emotionally moving moments.

The main plot of the show centers around Sang Doo, a 27 year old man, who leads the lifestly of a gigolo so he can pay the hospital bills of his "daughter" Bori, a 7 year old girl who practically lives at the hospital while she's sick with leukemia. Fate brings his first love from high school Eun Hwan, after 10 years of separation. Sang Doo becomes Eun Hwan's student, when he enrolls in her school to finish his high school education (and just so he can be close to her). Eun Hwan's boyfriend turns out to be Bori's doctor at the hospital and so forth and so on, the plot thickens. Sang Doo and Eun Hwan have to sacrifice a lot to be together, but also the rest of the characters as well...I think everyone grows making it even so more moving...

We finally watched the end last night and while I had a couple of tears quietly trickling down my face during those last scenes...I started sobbing after watching the end credits...The show doesn't make it too clear as to what really became of the Sang Doo and his first love Eun Hwan...I guess you can believe whatever you want to believe...but even if you believe in the happy ending...just the knowing of all the suffering those two had to go through it's just too tragic for me...I love pure happy endings...even if they're not believable (real life can be just too sad already...)


Apart from the ending, Sang Doo, Let's Go To School was an very good drama to watch, I never got bored, it never slowed down or dragged on, it had lots of flashbacks (a little confusing at the beginning) and it had some experimental moments there that made it different and cool...I highly recommend it, but suggest you keep a box of Kleenex close to you at all times! d(^_^)b
