"Tessa, why are you sparkly?" You probably don't want to know.

I am so amazed at my stupidity that I am actually updating my journal.

Sparkles. You probably know them. That plague which, once spilled, is nearly impossible to entirely be rid of. Whether loose, or in a glue form, the damage is the same. I couldn't find any tape. You can probably see where this is going.

Around ten or so years ago, my parents had gotten us kids some sparkly glue in a big tube (about the size of a shampoo bottle) in various colors.

Around three or so years ago, my brother tried to throw them out. Being both an artist and a packrat, I went "Nooooo! We might use them someday!" and promptly stole them away from him.

Around winter last year, whilst decorating presents for our yearly competition, I decided that sparkle glue would be useful. Now the thing you need to remember about ten-year-old glue in a very thin plastic container is that the plastic is probably no longer as flexible as it once was. I did not realize this. When I squeezed the bottle to get the sparkly glue out, it snapped. Like glass, but less bloody and more dangerous. Sparkles were everywhere. I rushed around like a crazy lady trying to clean it before it dried. It sort of worked. My mistake. Oops.

Around four or so hours ago, I decided that I absolutely must stick something to something else. There was no readily available tape. But there was this bottle of sparkly glue right there...so instead of looking more thoroughly, like a sensible person, I of course...

I cannot hug my cat. I cannot hug my plushies. I am even wary of typing this for fear of getting sparkles on the keyboard. Even once washed off, the sparkles remain. They wait quietly, showing up months, even years after the original spill, waiting, waiting, for another opportunity to strike. Beware the sparkles. They outnumber us.

You said that you liked Kagamine Rin/Len right? I think my design for the t-shirts will be something influenced by them. I found some pretty nice images on Google and deviantArt, so I might make something of those. I'll send you the design before I print them.
:iconmyrrddin:
^__^ Sooka. Make them super shiny so you can put them in your portfolio. Yesh. OH! I found a studio you may be interested in at some point (rather, Shirley found it and I pass it on). Remind me to send you the link for that. :3 It's mostly for photo, silkscreening and printing, but looks promising for you.
I look forward to your designs.

Hai! I will. I was also thinking that if time permits me and I don't get swamped with loads of homework, I could try and create a few designs of some of the other VOCALOID singers. I don't really like Hitsune Miku's music, but her appearance is pretty neat.

A studio? If you're reading this now, can you either send me the link on dA or even by email? That does sound cool. Can you give Shirley my thanks when you see her? That is neat. ARIGATO!
:iconmyrrddin:
:D AAH!! I watched the first four episodes of Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 and it's really, REALLY good! >w<

Good. That means I will enjoy it too. I just finished downloading Last Exile-- that's also shiny too. You might like it. On the site that I download from, there are already eight episodes of Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 out. Is it the same for your site as well?
:icondiptic-triptic:
What have you been up too ever since last weekend? If it's work, then I know I am not alone.
