This is the Fabric I bought for it.

The design is pretty simple, mostly rectangles of fabric,  so I’m gonna try to make it without a pattern.

Even so its easy to get mixed around when trying to figure out how everything pieces together so I’m using lots of different pictures/patterns for reference: McCall’s 4953 Simplicity 4080 .

A how-to for kimonoses…

Butterfly Sleeve Top
Something like this? Butterfly Sleeves!

Wigs:

Yuuko Wig would need to style it though…cut bangs and sides chin length…not sure how this would work on a cheepish synthetic wig like this. Bit shorter, but out of stock. 40″. How long does this look? This one looks really good, but it says its only 30″ looks longer. Seems good too. Only a dollar!?!

Japanese style with pink chopsticks. Green puffy things.

This is more of an idea of the costume than hairstyle…

And crazy stuffpurple curly and purple japanese. And blue geisha.
And Sailor Moon! cheepser

And yet another Chinese Style.

Taking Photos from Wikimedia and adding captions/words onto them that reflect the feeling of the image.

Wojciech_Kilar_2 What crazy hair!…I couldn’t think of a better caption…

I cropped these some to move the emphasis. The second one seems cuter than the first.

Onomatopoeia,
a lot of the pictures I find I want to use a sound for my words…Chu! Twang
Fwoosh! or something like that…

So…ya I kinda abandoned this site for awhile…ya know once it wasnt required to update.

But I do/did have relevent news for this thing!

I got an internship…making websites…at Web Creations and Consulting.

A friend owns the business so not a hard thing to angle but the situation was pretty lucky for me.

I am almost done with my first professional website.
You can check it out here…
Hrm…not sure if I should be giving that out now that I think about it…though I think I have posted the link before on like twitter or facebook or something…
Not that there is really any info that they wouldn’t want public. Thats kinda the point of the website…?

For our last lab in PC adminastration we are building a pretend computer…or rather creating a shopping list for building a computer. Actually  two…with price tags of $700 and $1700.

I was planning on looking up the system requirements for Photoshop and its friends.

I originally had a shuttle to a distant planet at the opening…this is entirely unrealistic. As NASA is already replacing the shuttle.

The new design makes me think of that Star Trek movie…the 2nd NG? Ah yes the Phonix, the first warp ship.

Though it would be nice to have something a little less phallic looking to draw. Trying to make something up, that still looks good…and aerodynamic.

Making a plan of attack for my projects and miscellaneous work for all my classes over these last few weeks. I have a lot to do.

Tonight I have been going through my Networking labs. Making sure I finished them all and reviewing the material. We have a test next Wednesday. This is something I have been needing to do for awhile. Procrastination…Ooo.

Things that I need by friday (technically today):

  • Sketch an outline for Digital Media Project. My last post talked a bit about it and I will add more info there soon.
  • I also need to talk to my Technical Writing teacher about re-writing some papers. Due at the beginning of Next Week.
  • And I need to sit in the lab and do a chunk of the Indesign section of Graphics software.

Due Sunday:

  • Web page project Draft. (Whole thing due the 14th, which I am guessing the rest are too.)

Tuesday:

  • PC Admin Labs, All seven, typed.

Wednesday:

  • Networking Test.

Friday I have a resume consultation as a final in Tech Writing.

  • So I should probably update that too.
