Only because the last time I was on call, the internet was being silly and wouldn't let me update my journal... and the night got a little busy XD;;
So I'm just gonna post now, a couple of hours before I start that 16hr shift XD;;

Firstly, I would like to say a massive thank you to everyone for their lovely kind words of support from my previous journal entry. It might sound silly but at the moment, it really means a lot to me as I'm still not really sure what exactly is going to happen with the possible op and all. I'm trying to keep positive and I know a lot of my close friends have been helping to take my mind off things :3

The weekend just gone was very awesomesauce. Saturday, I was involved in a photoshoot that was positively spectacular! Ta to Rob and Pete for organising it - plus it was a lovely suprise to bump into *TheInkOfDoom - and there were much LOLs had with ~MangaGirl232 and everyone else
Sunday, ~Tenkaii and I went shooting, which was much fun - if not for the very very early start. Out of practice or not, he pwn3d my ass! XDD Very Athrun-like shooting XDD;;
After that, we met up with two of my old uni friends and hung out for a while - good weather is always appreciated considering I work in a place with no windows hahahahaha XDD
But yes, thank you to everyone that was involved in the lovely weekend that I had!

Of course, with unsocial work shifts and whatnot, I haven't had a chance to take my camera out and snap stuff up. I'm still looking for time to take Horus out and experiment more photography things! *hint hint*
Hopefully, I can put some better photos up on my DA gallery than the couple already on ther XD;;

I got a really nice message from someone on DA asking if I would do a shoot for them for a small amount of money over Expo.
Considering I've actually started to take an interest in this aspect of cosplay and whatnot, I was wondering if anyone else would be interested in me doing photoshoots for them over Expo or just on any free time out of events.
If any of you are interested, please could you send me a note and we can negotiate times, places and prices (don't worry - I won't be asking for much!)

Decided now that I don't think I'll be attending LFCC on the Sunday now - I want to save some money and stuff...

On a lighter note, the hotel room for Fuyu's been booked! Yay! Just have to register myself now XD;;;

I've also decided that I want to improve my Selene cosplay and redo it at somepoint for this year - because it needs more love for the amount of effort and money put into sorting it all out XD;; It's my second most expensive cosplay in my closet XD;;

Determined to sew my ZAFT flightsuit together when I move into my new place! Will probably need a hand with it - it's not a one person job unfortunately ><

I just realised the other day how inaccurate my Kira Yamato cosplay is... I so need to fix that asap! ><
That is, when I can get to a fabric shop and buy buckles and stuff.
In fact, whilst I'm at it, I should probably fix my Aya jacket as well XD;;;
I should be saving money, dangit! ><
