Update everyone!

Thanks everyone for all your nice comments about not meh-ing me.
Kayla appreciates it very much <33333. Oh. And this IS Kayla, I just find it amusing to refer to myself in third person. :3 I hope you all can agree with that. And I also hope you don't think this is a random hacker saying this is kayla writing in third person kayla talk, cause this is legit!

This weekend I went to my first anime convention: NASHVILLE ANIME DAY!
It was small but jampacked with cosplayers and random knicknacks.
I was a cosplayer.... but I forgot to take a picture (hahahaa, kinda)
Link to their homepage right HERE.
Ahahah, not really.
It's here.
But the other one is quite amusing, too.
.....
Me = A smeargle.  My friend, Sami = Shiki from The World Ends With You

Some of the things I splurged on: (all the stuff is SO expensive)
- Entrance fee (only $3?!)
-Kitty ears with bells and tassels $18
-The yellow cat hat from Moonphase $18
- Random humongous box of win- scared me a little $10
- Different box of not win- weird $10
- 2 bags that were also random- random bento boxes inside-both $20
- Candy - $13.50

Here's the candy:

-Orange ramune
- PUMPKIN pocky
- Random gummies
- Little chocolate boxes
- Gum, with the purple top....I actually got that from a speaker that came to my library and talked aaaalll about Japan. (Free recessions!)
-More gum, in blue wrappings-with different fillings
-Rainbow package, kinda like starbursts. But OMFG delish.

I will continue......

Who Let The Cats Into The Mall?!? // WHO? WHO? WHO??

It all starts with the Alice In Wonderland "party" at hottopic (my favorite store).
Well, before then--- it starts with going home with the infamous Alaina, where we got ready and made our Cheshire cat masks. [hers purple, mine gray]
While at the mall, we put them on-- and left them on.
For TWO HOURS OF AMAZINGNESS. Guess who's going to the mall with masks next time?
---

Things we did:

Had an epic staredown with satan. Okay, a satan-masked kid. Guess who won?
None other than us, da kittie cats.
It lasted for about five minutes, the dude standing completely still and us, naturally, giggling.
The showdown only ended when his friend pulled down his hood (which pissed him off, btw.)

2. Went to the party.
Which was basically empty... It kinda sucked...

But I got free trading cards for guessing on a random trivia question!

Jonny Depp has appearantly starred in 7 Tim Burton movies. Who knew?

3. Made people disapprove of us.
"Weird. Wierd. Weird."

4. Amused people.
"KITTIES!! KITTIES!!" "AHAHAHEHEAHEAHAHEHA!!"  <-- (old ladies)

5. Wreaked havoc on the kiddie toys.
Evidence:

As you can imagine, this was fun.
Very, VERY FUN!













Oh, and here's some odd lady with a shopping cart.



Please explain this, because I'm baffled.
Your mission: make a CREATIVE reason why she's towing around a shopping cart and if I like it, I will feature it in my blog? Got it? GET THINKIN'!

Celebrating the Year O' the TIger

I celebrate by not celebrating. You should try it some time. Above ^ is my little umbrella mobile that I purchased from Pangaea in Nashville. They sell expensive things there... Although... they're Absolutely Adorable.
They each depict a separate color and animal- but I have no clue what half of them are because:
A. I'm too short to reach the fan/ ceiling.
B. I don't know exactly what they are (except the red one- it's a rooster)
C. I can't read Chinese. Mandarin. Korean. Japanese. Taiwanese. Or anything along those lines. English is hard enough. :)

Cosplay... I'm gonna do it. Some time. When I get enough money and time, I'm gonna make the necklace from Moon phase. (out of clay most likely) It's my all time favorite item from an anime so far... that's at least possible for a noob to make)
Here they are in all their glory --->

Anime con's coming to Nashville in April... So I've gotta be ready for it!
....

Something tells me I'm gonna put it off until the last minute. Well, at least I tried... to... get ahead?
I'm thinking ahead. Yes.

I'm working on getting some of my crocheting creations up before I totally forget.
And for an added bonus, I'll put where I got the pattern for them. I should anyways...

This little guy's an ORANGE CONE.
(not a carrot, sniffle)
I made it for my friend to go with a bunch of crap for her birthday. I'm having a little-- scratch that- a LOT of trouble giving him up.


The directions were very clear on the base of the cone and it resembled a tiny potholder when completed. And the top? That's a completely different story... I had trouble figuring out the pattern, so I had to make one up for that part. (if you want my directions, just ask) And the eyes are a bit large because the Hobby Lobby around here doesn't have 6 mm safety eyes. 9 mm work though, if that's all you have.
My favorite brand of yarn is: I Love This Yarn, but for this project they didn't have the color orange that I wanted, so I'm pretty sure that I used Red Heart, which I find scratchy. Anyone else agree?

And I present to you *drum roll, please!*
