...I REALLY need to update here more often. Like, not even funny.

Mmkay, so here's the story of my last week, made brief.

I went to a cosplay meetup on Tuesday, since we didn't have school for election day. And I met this L cosplayer there. And he was really cool and life was awesome and happy fun tiemz were had.

And then that night, I had given him my AIM as we were leaving the meetup, so he IMed me. And asked me if I would be his girlfriend. Remember that I've only known this guy for about six hours... so I said no to being his girlfriend since I barely knew him, but I'm not entirely against the idea overall... I would just want to actually know him first. And we said we'd go out on Saturday (today) to, you know, get to know each other more.

But we never set a time. And he didn't sign onto AIM at ALL so we couldn't set one up... until it got to be today, and I still didn't know WHEN we were supposed to meet, and I had the SAT IIs in the morning anyway (which are a BITCH, by the way) and... it just didn't work out.

So I did other things today (one of which I'll freak out about in a second to you guys) and I got home at around 4:30 or so, signed onto AIM myself... and saw an offline message he left for me saying that he wouldn't be able to go out with me today... and that he didn't think he'd be able to at all- he said that he had to concentrate on his classes considering how he's not exactly doing to well in them at the moment, and he said he'd just gotten out of a long, hard relationship, but if it wouldn't be wierd, he still wanted to be friends.

And to be honest... I was kind of relieved. I was flattered when he first asked me, but... he's really cool and all, but I just didn't LIKE him like that. And maybe that would've come with time. Maybe if I'd hung out with him more, and gotten to know him better, that would've changed. But... it's probably for the best, the way it is.

I dunno. But as much as I complain about it... and as much as I occasionally want someone to just be with... I kinda really kind being single. I like being a flirt. I don't want to have to change that just for one guy. I bitch about it... but I really rather like my single status.

Also... my family's cell phone contract ran up with Verizon recently, so we renewed today and got new phones, and do you know what I got?

AN LG ENV TOUCH. Damn straight- I have a smart phone. And it makes me SO VERY, VERY HAPPY. Just sayin'. XD

So, you know that feeling where it's the Monday night of a three-day-weekend where you barely had any homework, and it's close to the end of the night, and THAT'S when you realize that you have a five to seven page paper due in two days that you haven't even started?

Yeah, I hate that feeling.

I'm an incredibly vain person. I'm not gonna lie- I'm an INCREDIBLY vain person, and I love getting compliments on how I look, and I spend a fair amount of time (when I feel human... mornings before school don't count) working on how I look, when I care. I know it's superficial and all, but... I like looking good.

So today I went back to my middle school, to give a presentation on my high school, and why the 8th graders should apply there. And I was REALLY awkward in middle school. I mean, I thought I was happy and popular at the time, but looking back... god, I was practically mute, and I had almost no real friends, and such TERRIBLE fashion sense. But to go back there for the first time in a long while, and have the teachers look at you, not recognize you and look away, then do a double take and go "...Emma?? Is that you?? You... you look good!!" Yeah, that's pretty sweet.

EVERYBODY!! You know that event I linked you all to before? Yeah, you're going to want to change that. We're combining with another event- same date, an hour earlier (so it's at 12), but it's at Bryant Park, with a hell of a lot more people!! Have a link to Facebook? [link]

I hope to see you all there, and I really hope I didn't confuse anybody!!

Well, to get over my emo of yesterday, and the fact that CWS (Con Withdrawal Syndrome) is fail... I'm apparantly hosting a cosplay picnic meetup next week!! You should come!! It'll be awesome!!

When: Saturday, October 10th, 1PM
Where: The south side of the Great Lawn in Central Park
Details: It's a picnic, so bring stuff to sit on, food (preferably some to share as well~), stuff to play with (balls, frisbees, etc.), and YOURSELF.

Also, don't be an ass in Central Park. People get married there. So, for example? Yaoi circles are not happening. I love them too, but it's a public place.

Also also... it's starting to get cold, so dress accordingly. I won't be wearing my Shiki Misaki for example, and I would hope you wouldn't wear anything similar...

And, if you're on Facebook... have a link? [link]
