It's about time I've made a new journal, as I'm already a month into college and halloween is around the corner omg I am so pumped.
As for college, it's going fairly well so far. Hate homework though, nothing's changed there. Most of my art classes are pretty stale too, but I'm pushing through. Sociology is fantastic I love my teacher it's the one class I look forward to in the morning. However I may not be doing so well in that class not because I don't understand the material but because of technical difficulties cuz everything we do is digital and electronic so I have no idea if my answers to our in class quizzes have gone through and if they haven't it's gonna bring my grade down alot. This is the only class I'm extremely concerned about grade wise. All my other classes I know I'm doing quite well. Other than that, I think I'm going home... is it this weekend? Cuz there's a long weekend and I live like almost 2 and a half hours away so this'll be my first time going home since the start of college. I am so excited to see my dog again qwq He's like the one reason I'll gladly go back home. Though I do feel kinda bad cuz one of my friend's dogs had to be put down last weekend. ANYWAY, some tips and advice for going into college:
-DO YOUR HOMEWORK AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE
-EAT MEAT. FIND MEAT. IF YOU ARE A PICKY EATER LIKE ME, MAC&CHEESE CAN ONLY DO SO MUCH. ANIMAL CRACKERS ARE NOT A SUBSTITUTE. FIND A MEAT YOU LIKE AND EAT LIKE YOU'VE NEVER EATEN BEFORE. DON'T GO 2 WEEKS WITHOUT MEAT, YOU WILL CRAVE IT LIKE YOU CRAVE CHOCOLATE.
-DON'T EAT POPCORN. YOUR ROOM'S GONNA SMELL LIKE IT. IF YOU BURN IT IT'S WORSE. OPEN SOME WINDOWS AND TURN ON SOME FANS IF YOU DO.
-BE PREPARED FOR LATE NIGHT FIRE ALARMS, BE IT DRILLS OR THE REAL THING
-BE PREPARED FOR IDIOTS SCREAMING, MAKING NOISE, AND BLASTING MUSIC BE IT INSIDE OR OUTSIDE
-GET AS MUCH SLEEP AS YOU CAN. ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE EARLY CLASSES, DON'T STAY UP TILL 2 IN THE MORNING ON TUESDAYS DOING NOTHING.
-TAKE NOTES LIKE HELL
-SKIM, DON'T READ
Hmmmmmmm..... I think that's about it...
Welp, anyway, on the subject of Halloween owo
I really really really really really REALLLY wanna cosplay as the Namimori middle school uniform version of Chrome Dokuro from KHR or Katekyo Hitman Reborn. I have a list of things to get before the end of the month.
1) Chrome cosplay wig - I have found one, I just need to talk to my parent's about getting it, and I better be using my own money
2) White Dress shirt - the one I had for Iceland is now too small so I need a new one
3) Navy Blue sweater vest - last time I checked they had 'em at old navy and I have old navy gift cards and there is an old navy at the mall here just down a couple blocks and I have made the discovery that my roommate has a car .x. just gotta work up the courage to ask her to drive me
4) Red Ribbon/Bow - for the bow part of the uniform
5) Eye Patch (& mask) - for the theme I'm going for here for my halloween idea, I most likely won't be getting or making her skull eyepatch. Instead, I'ma see if I can get that eyepatch bandage and mask thing at cvs or something. Hopefully they have them cuz I have the perfect idea to make this costume more halloweeny =w=
I have the rest of the supplies. On Halloween, though, I'm not quite sure what I'm gonna do. I don't know if I'm going to go to classes in my full out halloween cosplay or just partially, or without any of the face stuff, including the wig. I'm definitely wearing the clothes to class, cuz it's normal everyday kinda stuff. Either way, I don't know what I'm doing after class. Halloween is awesome this year cuz it's on a friday and I only have two classes in the morning which end at 11 so then I have the rest of the day to myself. As for what I'm doing after that, not sure. Might hang with my suite mates if they're gonna do something. One of them is a cosplayer too. If not, I'ma do some halloween skype chatting with my friends owo Or if I have time I'll do both. I just wanna have fun in costume I am just so excited for Halloween I love Halloween I have to do something. If I'm not gonna be Chrome for halloween for whatever reason, I'll definitely be her for the upcoming anime boston, and I'll just be Terezi from Homestuck instead. I'll be bringing some cosplay stuff back to the dorms with me after this weekend either way =w=
