This is me. Call me overtowl, formalfox, eido, leslie or whatever your fancy is.
You want basics right?
1. I'm nineteen
2. I'm in college, sophomore year. I study Art History and the English language
3. I'm Asexual. Personally, I don't care at this point in my life.
4. I'm a Buddhist Christian. You may say it doesn't work, but it does.
5. I'm a ranter. People say it's part of the whole Asperger's thing.
6. I'm a lover of many things. Read below for all the spicy details
I like to do things. What kind of things? Many things. I read fiction--almost any type. I read fanfiction because I honestly can't write it or well, I don't think I ever really tried. I love to write original stuff. My fandoms I like. Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy XIII float my boat. I like the others, but these two are worth mentioning. Code Geass, Spice and Wolf, and Ao no Exorcist are important too.
I make things. Lots of things. Aside from the writing, I love to paint, sew, draw, and in general make things. I love making hats and stuffed animals most of all. I play video games. My PS3 is my friend. Ask me what I like and we can talk and talk and talk about them. I roleplay. No, not the sexual kind. The post-by-post kind. I'm not the most active in the proboards community, but that's because I'm liking one-on-one things lately.
What You Can Expect
1. Book Reviews
2. Ranting about College and Life
3. Doodles because I'm not a serious artist
4. Video Game Stuff
5. Original Writing
6. Musing about Life and Art

Day 1: Chandelure Project
This is the project that will start many other projects. My first real cosplay. It will not be modified. It will be sewn from fabrics. It is my own design, so I'm not copying any outfit. Inspired by the pokemon, I hope to make more after this one.
Day one consisted of buying said material. Sad to say I didn't have enough money to buy everything. Actually I might have, but I like eating. Well here is the material for the dress, minus the thread.
This is only the bottom part. I still have more elastic to buy and the top part of the dress along with any extras I wish to purchase.
I hemmed the bottom and then added. Voila. There was half the bottom.

Umbreon Hat
I finally got this hat done and behold, one of my acquaintances wanted a commission. I don't think this person will go through with paying, but the fact that someone wants one is a good thing. It took about four hours, mostly with major trouble with the ears.
Defriend
I'm just mad at this girl. Furious. Even though this was done probably RIGHT after the semester ended, I'm still mad. I did put it behind me and counted the friends that I know are loyal and don't lie to my face, but that dream I had. I'm thinking more about school. The dorms are in there every night. This one was bad. The other one--with the woman eating my heart and the dream within a dream didn't scare me. It was funny actually, but this one causes so much rage.
The things this girl said in my dream. Yes, I know it's not real and I'm imagining a worst case scenerio, but it hurts to think that girl could say these things in my wildest dreams. And the fact that I cared for this friend. It's hard for me to trust anyone. Truly trust. But I took a chance and it turns out that I was a tool. I was used for school assignments. I cared for this person. My throat lurched and my stomach dropped when I thought this girl was in trouble. I wanted to fight when injustice was taken against her. That's not usually me.
Reflecting on this makes me sad. I want to cry but I'm too angry. I want to confront her, but there's a reason I never confront anyone. I get angry. My heart races. It's either biting, asthma attack, or punching. But the good thing is I don't have to see her every day. She's away from the dorm. She's in her fancy apartment with the other don't-cares. So how am I supposed to care? I'm glad I'm not in painting with her. Fuck it. I can paint by myself and then take the class my senior year.
If I see her face, it'll be too soon.
But I must be serene. As hard as it is. As much as I want to unleash this rage, I cannot. That's no way to start the new school year. I'll stick to my single with my friends not too far and you stay in your apartment, away from me. If I'm lucky, I won't even see her at dinner.

Wow
I got the sewing machine to work. I actually done this. You have no clue how much trouble this thing has been, but now I'm finally kicking off my two projects. The first is cheese-kun, the pizza hut mascot in Japan, but you might know him in the arms of C.C. from Code Geass. I actually have an oversized one, but he's old and the first thing I made so one day, I might tear him up. Until now he makes a good pillow.
The second project is a Toothless Plushie. I love this guy except I hate his head, mostly because I have to do some claymold shit that I have no clue how to do. And the claws. The claws. They have taken me hours to do and I'm not half way done. I think it'll be worth it in the end. Well, I'm about 1/3 done with him and I might just do the claws later and just construct the wings.
And both of these patterns were provided by two deviantart users which I'll mention if I ever put the pictures up or when I complete them.
I have a habit about looking into the future too much. A litwick plushie is going to be in my future once I discover the pattern. I never made a pattern before so this one will probably be crap, but it would be my crap and I would keep it so I can look back while I progress. Okay, I don't actually do this for real crap. I'm deciding between a chandelure cosplay or a banette one.
Other than that, I await the day I go back to school. My room is clean and it is modeled a bit like my room at school. This is strange. The dream I had was so real. It involved dreaming within a dream and some lady wanting to harvest my heart. And trippy room switches.
