I have finals this week, so I'm too busy to be interesting. But once the simester's over I will start working on my Lady Blackhawk costume.

Also I have a fashion blog on Tumblr here where there are pretty pretty costumes and geeky stuff.

Sassy Templar

Too busy lamenting the fact that I need to work today so no Halloween party or AC3, so no comments. (I'll probably come back to this post later when I have better pictures or can think of witty comments.)

best part of being a Templar is the swooshy skirt

Me, toasting with the blood of my fallen adversaries.

Boring post is boring

Nothing has really been happening. I started working my work study job. I bought comics and stuff.

I went to the Davis Square Flea Market and bought this adorable Dick Tracy lunch box:

perfect for my hair clips and necklaces

also iron man nails this week

I'm Bringing Sexy Cap

Hi, all! I always feel like I need to blog more, but I'm far to busy (meaning too lazy and irresponsible) to have a regular schedule.

So I went to my first party as a college student last Saturday: Comicazi's Halloweeniversary party! Here's the line up of me and my crazy friends:

Lady Gaga, Fiona, Captain Ameriboob America, Linkara, Panda, and Banshee

Hilarious Story #1: A guy comes up to me and says "I never thought I would ever say Captain America is hot."

One of many uses for an arc reactor: filling out raffle tickets in a dark room

Hilarious Story #2: My sister found someone dressed as the Doctor (the one with the scarf, Tom Baker). Of course she compliments his scarf and he offers her a jelly baby.
At this point, my friend Sarah has been watching this conversation. So, my sister accepts the candy and Sarah is just like "You just took candy from a stranger. Don't people say to never do that? Why did you do that."
My sister responds with "He's not a stranger, He's the Doctor."

Me and my invisible shield

 I had accidentally entered the Women's costume competition as well as the Group competition. When I went up alone, I heard someone yell "Sing the song!" My sister heard someone yell "God Bless America!"

The picture of my sister and me from the Comicazi facebook

 I pretty much spent the night "getting down with my bad self" (Oh how I love using lame lingo), and making boob jokes (wait... that isn't what all girls do when they're bored?).

V for Victory! We won the group costume prize!

 I had a wonderful time and I'm looking forward to next year! Now to figure out what to spend my prize on.

Also I had Captain America nails under my gloves.

Wig Party

So, I haven't gotten any pictures from the con yet, so yeah. But I did buy an amaze-balls wig (by which I mean my sister bought it for me) from The Five Wits. I want to put together a Birds of Prey group with my sister and her friends (hopefully we will be able to go to NYCC next year), so I got the wig for Lady Blackhawk:

I've been a fan of her uniform for a while now and have been tempted to read Blackhawks because of her.
So yeah, I got the "Art Bomb Zodiac Star" style. Here it is:

a little curling and a hat away from perfect

the wig came with a cute clip in pony tail (we bought a second one for $5)

I think I might go to Comicazi's Halloweeniversary party as a girly Captain America

Or maybe as a girly pirate Captain America

I'm so excited and I just can't hide it.

and I also quote random songs when I think to.
But that doesn't matter because my (and my sister's) badge(s) for New York Comic Con arrived.

I had a job interview yesterday and should find out tonight if I got the position.
If I did get the job, I'm gonna reward myself by pre-ordering Assassin's Creed III.
As a reward for getting through the interview, I painted my nails again.

I had wanted to make the nails blood splattered (except the thumb), but I only have a sparkly red nail polish and blood does not sparkle.


Well, off to class now.

Previously, on Juia Goes to College:

I painted my nails again:

This time, Fullmetal Alchemist style! (because it took me this long to finally finish FMA:Brotherhood)

I went to the College Night at the Museum of Science:

"turn on thrusters!"

"draw me like one of your french girls... IN SPACE!"

playing around in the models exhibit means making Captain America and Iron Man squiggles:

Also, my college activities board is putting together a New York trip to see Spider-man: Turn Off the Dark which means I'll need to make a more formal Spider-man dress.

seriously, I spent months listening to the soundtrack.

Keep on Rollin'

I finally got a chance to premiere my roller skates in public because Lesley's campus activities board turned one of the auditoriums into a roller rink.

I'm super graceful.

After I got an hour of skating under my belt.

I'm not too happy with the outfit, but the roller skates are stellar.

In all, it was tons of fun. I only fell twice! Bruising my left hand was totally worth it though.

I'm not intentionally stalling, the stalling just kinda happens

My desk's drawers are already filled and stuff, and I couldn't think of anywhere to put my comics ( and I don't want to buy a longbox and have to ride the T with it) so I decided to put them in the little shelf that's supposed to be for a keyboard.

They fit almost perfectly!

Now officially at college

Moved into college today, and I am just pumped. here's my new room situation:

and my bed:

I needed a spider-man poster creeping on my ceiling.

and my outfit:

 Inspired by Assassin's Creed (but you could have guesses that, dear reader)

I get nervous before big changes, and the only thing that calms my nerves is crafting, so I made a patch of the Assassin's insignia:

And then I wore my birdie ring because eagles are cool:

so I'm going to live with two other girls in a triple room and share the floor with some others. It's a victorian house style dorm, so there is a common room downstairs and a communal kitchen. My mum gave me an early Chrismas present, an Xbox360, so now we have three systems in our room. Here's to hoping this year turns out great.
