[music|D'espairs Ray - Maze]
From This Entry On, this LiveJournal is . . . 
;; Want To Be My Friend? ;;
If you can follow these simple rules I will add you to my friends list.
♥ Everything said in my journal stays here. If I hear of people not on my friends list learning about something I have said, whoever spread the news will be deleted off my friends list AMEDIATLY, no questions asked.
♥ No drama, drama is part of the reason I made this journal friends only.
♥ No hating, flaming, disrespecting, any of my friends, family, or fandom.
♥ If you don't like what I am saying in my journal, why read it. This is my personal journal and I am free to say whatever I want, if you have a problem, you shouldn't be on my friends list.
♥ I like to only have people I know or share similar interests with on my friends list. This doesn't mean I won't take the time to get to know you.
♥ If you have been deleted off my friends list, there is a reason, don't ask to be put back on.
♥ Please comment on my entries every now and then. Let me know you are there.
♥ Comment to be added, with a small introduction.
;; Un-Friending ;;
♥ I don't generally unfriend people. I don't really like to word, or the idea. But, if for some reason I feel the need to unfriend you, I will always tell you. And, if asked, I will provide a reason. All I ask in return is that you unfriend me.
;; Ambellina ;;
I am a Mommy, please keep that in mind when friending me. I talk about my life here and she is the largest part of it! I wouldn't suggest adding me to your friend's list if you don't like kids.

Sponsor Me at March for Babies!
[24 Apr 2008|07:15pm]
Hey everyone! I know I posted this once before, but I am doing it again because the walk is this weekend. Every dollar helps raise money for babies who weren't as lucky as Ambellina. I thank god every day that she was a happy healthy baby and that we had, and have had, no complications. We are very very lucky, unlike many people out there! Please help us help others by making a small donation towards our cause!

ANYONE GOING TO NYCC?
I need a HUGE favor!
Claudio (the lead singer of Coheed and Cambria) and his Evil Ink Comics will be at NYCC. Claudio is the mastermind behind all of Co&Ca's lyrics and the creater of the Amory Wars, the music and comic books Ambellina is named after. So, as you can see, he is kind of a big deal to our family.
The favor I am looking for is an autograph. He will be doing signings all weekend long;
Sat, April 19th - 12-1PM @ Image Comics Booth (#1407)
Sat, April 19th - 4-5PM @ Table 6 (Autograph Area) w/ Tony Moore!
Sun, April 20th - 2-3PM @ Table 6 (Autograph Area)
We would also like for whoever does us this favor to pick up a few things for us. They are releasing the first 5 comics of the Amory Wars series in a Trade Paperback which will cost $14.99. They are also releasing a variant cover for Amory Wars Issue One, I am not sure one the price of that one but their comics run about $3-$4. If someone could pick these up for us we would paypal you the money needed.
That part isn't really all that important if we can get an autograph! We would like it to be addressed to Ambellina, maybe on a printed picture of her, if not, just on a piece of paper. It would really mean a lot to us!!!!
Let me know if you would be willing to do this for us!
For some reason I have been obsessed with this song . . .

[mood|
aggravated]
I am really sorry about my post earlier. Sometimes I let things get the best of me.
I admit, I could have made more effort to contact people because I knew they would be on break. Hell, I admited that in my last post. My mother brought this to my attention. She says that posts like that are a cry for help. I don't realize these things until they are pointed out to me.
I am dealing with some really tough shit right now, and I know that I haven't put too much effort into some of my friendships, I apologize for that. But I don't deserve being told off, it is like kicking someone when they are down and it is uncalled for.
Let me break things down for those of you who have never been pregnant or had a child. What I am going through right now is call Postpartum Depression.
This depression differs from the "blues" in a number of ways:
It lasts beyond two to three weeks.
It begins in the third week or later, even up to several months after birth.
The depression is stronger. In addition to anxiety and doubt, a depressed mother may feel vulnerable or isolated from her partner, family and friends. She may believe that there is something truly wrong with her abilities as a mother.
The symptoms are more varied. They may include headaches, bowel problems, insomnia or confusion.
Other symptoms and feelings that may be signs of postnatal depression are:
Anxiety or panic attacks; periods of very strong fear, shortness of breath, rapid heartbeat
Loss of self-respect or confidence -- feeling like you don't count or can't do anything right
Reduced motivation, energy and interest in accomplishing goals
Loss of your sense of humor
Feeling forgetful, distracted or absent-minded -- having trouble concentrating
Crying spells
Exhaustion and over-concern about lack of sleep
Lack of appetite or overeating
Loss of sexual desire or pleasure in sex
Feeling alone or lonely; without the support of others
Feeling no love, or not enough love, for your baby
Nervousness, feeling tense or edgy
Apathy or hopelessness
Fear of harming yourself or your baby
Obsessive thoughts -- ideas or feelings you can't stop from repeating in your mind
Odd or frightening thoughts -- thoughts or images that scare you or that you can't control
Thoughts of suicide, feeling like you want to die
Postpartum Depression is real, it is tough and it is fightening. I am doing my best to get help. I have a doctor's appointment in a week or so and we are going to discuss my options. I don't like the way anti-depressants make me feel so we are going to try to come up with some other solution. If I have to I will turn to medication.
I guess what I am saying is; you have to be patient with me. I need help and going off on me and telling me how horriable of a friend I am doesn't help me. It just adds to the insecurities I am already feeling and it makes things esclate.
I have my moments. There are times, like earlier today, when I can't think stright. I am in tears and pissed off for really no apparent reason. And then there are times like now, when I can sit here and express these feelings. I can openly talk about what is wrong with me and do so calmly and rationaly.
I am not trying to guilt trip anyone, I am trying to explain to you all why I have been acting the way I have. You can get angry with me, and say I am making excuses and complain about my behavior to each other but it isn't going to get you anywhere.
Everyday people deal with depression, and there are many new mothers that deal with Postpartum Depression. It takes time, it takes patiance and it takes understanding to get though. All I am asking from you is time, patiance and understanding. I have a long road to recovery and the first step on that road is noticing my problem and talking about it.
I have put myself out there, this is my cry for help. Please. Help me get though this. Don't make me do this alone. I need my friends more then ever and if you can't handle it then maybe we shouldn't really be friends. I can't promise I am going to put 100% effort into all my friendships, I can't promise I am going to take an active interest in anything really, but that is just part of it. I will try to do better. I will try to put more effort into everything. But all I can promise is that I will try.
That is all I can promise. If that isn't enough, then I am sorry.

[Reading] Hum . . . *ponders*
[14 Dec 2007|11:53am]
[mood| content]
Well, I have come to a conclusion. My conclusion; I need to read more books. Yes, I want to read AS MUCH AS POSSIABLE before the baby gets here because I don't know how much time I will have to read once she is. I am going to try my best to keep on reading once she is here in whatever free time I have, so I have made myself a goal. A New Years resolution of sorts, only started early.
By this time next year I will have read 100 books.
We went and visited my cousion yesterday and I noticed he was reading To Kill a Mocking Bird, when I asked him why he said because we had decided to read all the books off the 100 Best Novels list. Well, when I got home last night I looked up this list he was talking about only to realize there are quite a few, so I read through them all (Modern Library, TIME and Radcliffe Publishing) and decided on a list to read from. All three have a lot of the same books, but I choose the one of the three that had the most books I personally wanted to read or re-read and decided on . . .
All the books in italics are books I have read, however, don't ask me about them because it has been awhile and I will be re-reading everything, starting with Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut. Rian and I picked up this book the other day while we were at Borders for $7.99. He has read it before and wanted to re-read it and it just so happened to be on ALL THREE of the lists I was looking at so it seems like a good place to start.
I suppose I will keep record of everything here on my journal for those who are interested, I will make sure to label them [Reading] so just look at the subject and if you don't want to read then just bypass these posts.
The randomness of my livejournal never ends . . .

STUFF POSTED AT selphysales!
Please go look. I am in the process of packing up my room so more things will be added. The costumes and accessories I made a list out of earlier will not be posted up until AFTER I move and have time to go through them all, clean, repair and get pictures of them. Sorry everyone who was wanting to buy costumes, you will just have to wait a little longer.
If for some reason you reserved a costume and wanted it sooner then mid-November PLEASE contact me, I will do my best to get it clean and ready for you BEFORE I move instead of after.

I AM SAILOR MOON!!!!!!!!!!!11111111111oneone!!!!!!!!
*headdesk*
The younger generations of Sailor Moon cosplayers make me giggle. The self inflicted drama, the elitist nature and the obsession is so much more extreme for them then it is for 90% of those of us who have been in it for a while and who are a little older.
I used to get aggravated by them, but now I just sit back and laugh my ass off. How can I, someone who has been doing this for a while now be even slightly offended by someone who is 3-5 years younger then me? I don't see why they even waste their time trying to start drama with the older and more experienced. Most of the fuel they have for their personal vendettas is outdated.
Not saying us older cosplayers are innocent, we aren't. But the petty drama they are dealing now is a distant memory for those of us who even wasted our time with it when we were younger. Most of us are past the age where that stuff is offensive, it is just LOL worthy.
When I run into newer, younger Sailor Moon cosplayers I tend to stay away. I give everyone a chance because I am in no way an elitist, but if I can read their journal and tell they are immature I won't even waste my time.
Sure I LOVE to cosplay Sailor Moon, but that doesn't make us one in the same. I don't want to be apart of their petty drama or their immature behavior, regardless of if we cosplay the same series.
It is a waste of time for them to think they are going to drag me into their attacks against other people. Hell 99.9% of the time, the people they are trying to attack are 1--my friends and 2--think their sad attempt at starting something is LOL worthy.
I can't say it is all the younger crowds though, let’s give credit where credit is due, some older people can do it too. But, from what I have noticed the MAJORITY of them are newer to the Sailor Moon cosplay community.
Oh, and what gets me the most is, a little more then say %80 of them don't even make their own costumes. They commission them, or convince friends to make them. BUT they still think they are THE BEST IN THE WORLD and they think they have the right to attack other people and tell them how much better they are then them.
Well my response;
You are ugly and so is your costume, so GET OVER IT!
OH NO I WENT THERE! COME ON GUYS! BEAT ME UP WITH YOUR SUPER AWESOME SAILOR SENSHI POWERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOLOLOLOL.
Well, I don't cosplay from this series because I think I AM Minako Aino; I cosplay from this series because it is fun. I might have been a lot like Minako when I was younger, but if you told me I acted just like now, I would be offended. Frankly, you would be telling me I act 8 or 9 years younger then I actually am and to ME that is offensive. I don't mind if you tell me I look like her, or I make a cute Minako, that is flattering, but to say I AM HER! That is a little extreme, and not my mission.
I am not a bitch, or an elitist, but I DO have common sense and my common sense tells me to stay as far away from these little kiddos as possible. I will be civil and I will be nice but I will NOT be their BFF!
WOAH! DRAMAZ!
Just kidding. I am just saying what I believe is the 100 truth.

[mood| cranky]
Sometimes I wonder if anyone stops by my journal and reads randomly. Now, I know it is mostly friends only, but I still wonder.
I have changed quite a bit since I first got this journal back in 2005. I have grown up a lot and I have made many new friends thanks to this crazy little thing called LJ. I am actually kind of greatful for it, but I still wonder.
Maybe it is just me, but sometimes I go back and check old friends journals.
Not in a I'm a stalker I want to get dirt on you kind of way but more in a I wonder what you have been up to, I wonder how your life is going kind of way.
I find myself more interested in the people who it ended badly with. I feel guilty and I hope they are doing well, living life to the fullest. I like to check and see, but I never comment or let it be known. I don't want to cause any drama, because like I said I am not there to get dirt but these are people who at the time hated me (or at least disliked me to a GREAT degree.)
I realize I am one strange individual. ;_________________;

Hum. So maybe I got a little over zelus with my last post. I greatly appreciate everyone’s interest, but as I sit here looking at this gigantic pile of costumes and accessories I have realized there is quite a bit of work that needs to be done before things are totally ready to be sold. I need to make some minor alterations on a few costumes, everything needs to be dry cleaned, and I need to figure out shipping on each item. Now, to keep everything a little more under control I have made a selling journal. selphysales. But, right now there isn’t anything up.
I am going to try my best to get everything I have to sell together and get pictures taken of them. I will start with the costumes I listed in the last post and go from there; costumes that people are interested in will be number one priority. But, to be perfectly honest it will take up to a month to get everything put together. Things like shoes and wigs I will be able to sell a little sooner then the costumes themselves. But please be patient and give me some time.
I hope no one expected or needed items right away. I really meant for my last post to be more of a "who’s interested" then I am totally ready to sell this stuff. I really have to sit down and think about costs. I don’t want to overcharge, but at the same time I don’t want to undercharge.
Now, if someone expressed interest in an item I will put that item on reserve. As soon as I get the item ready to be sold with cost and shipping I will post pictures and you can make your final decision.
I put together this list of items and people who were interested in them. If you needed the item by a certain time PLEASE let me know as soon as possible so I can get right on whatever alterations that needs to be made as well as pricing and shipping. Sorry for any misunderstandings I will try my best to get everything ready.
List;
devilish__angel – Princess Venuspretty_geek – Kasumikayla_kagome – Super Sailor Venus and Original Sailor Venus
Wigs and Shoes can be ready within the next week or two. Right now I have only given prices on those items. Sorry for everyone interested in costumes, give me a little bit of time to get things perfect for you!
The only downside to selling right away is I can only take carefully concealed money or money orders. My bank account and paypal account are really messed up right now, so I can’t take paypal at the moment. However, in a month, but the time the costumes are ALL ready I will have paypal and my bank account all figured out.
Thank you to everyone for the overwhelming response to my post! I greatly appreciate it!
2 in a row! But this is important!

Now, sorry about the rant. It seems like that is all I have been doing as of late. <.<;; I really am sorry guys, I will try to make more interesting posts, less bitching more entertaining. I feel like very few people read my journal anymore, but this next bit of information is important so I will bold it so I can see if you just skim over my entries!
I am getting ready to set up an LJ Garage Sale! I will be selling everything from clothing and accessories to costumes and fandom related items, so PLEASE keep a look out for it. Everything I sell will go into our "baby fund" which is a savings account Rian and I are going to set up for everything baby related. Any help we can get is greatly appreciated!
Please, please PLEASE help us out by purchasing some of my old junk. Like they say, one man's trash is another man's treasure. Although, most of what I am selling wouldn't be considered trash. I have a lot of really cute clothing items and accessories that I am sure someone could give a great new home to. Really keep a watch out if you like skirts and girly things, because I know I have a shit ton of skirts to sell.
I am also selling MOST of my costumes. I am keeping only one or two, but everything else must go. So, if you already know of one of my costumes you would be interested in let me know and I will tell you if it is one I am willing to part with. Really, other then Rukia and my Juban I think I am selling EVERYTHING else. I can't promise what kind of shape I am going to be in after the baby, so I am willing to part with everything else. I am also selling a few cosplay accessories or pieces of costumes, off the top of my head here is a list . . .
Full Costumes (minus wigs and shoes)
Videl - Dragonball Z (White Long Shirt, Biker Shorts and Orange Star High Pin)
Nana 'Hachi' Komatsu - NANA (7 Art; Skirt, Top, Red Stripe Leggins, Hair and Shoe Accessories)
Rinoa Heartilly - Final Fantasy VIII (Duster, Skirt, Arm Warmers, Shorts)
Princess Venus - Sailor Moon (Dress, Ribbon Choker and Hair Bow)
Super Sailor Chibi Moon - Sailor Moon Manga (Hand Painted Fuku, Detachable Front and Back Bow, Detachable Shoulder Details, Gloves + Glove Toppers, Choker and NEW Brooches)
Yuffie Kisaragi - FFVII: Dirge of Cerberus (Shorts, Belt, Pouch, Top w/belt and Faux Leather Straps, Wrist Band, Ninja Head Band and Arm Warmer)
::BRAND NEW NEVER WORN:: Super Sailor Venus - Sailor Moon (Fuku, Detachable Front and Back Bow, Gloves + Glove Toppers, Chocker and Brooch)
Original Sailor Venus - Sailor Moon (Fuku, Detachable Front and Back Bow, Chocker, Gloves + Glove Toppers and Brooch)
::BRAND NEW NEVER WORN:: Kasumi - Dead or Alive (Hand Painted Dress, Chocker, Arm Warmers, Shin Guards, Thigh Highs and Spankies)
Seras Victoria - Hellsing Manga (Jacket, Skirt, Thigh Highs, and Gloves) ::Needs Hellsing Patches::
Sailor V - PGSM (Skirt, Top, Armor, Front Bow and Choker)
Costume Parts
Sailor Venus Tiara
Sailor Venus Shoes + Ankle Accessories; Size 6
Sailor V Shoes + Ankle Accessories; Size 6
Rinoa Heartilly Boots; Size 6
Alice (Resident Evil) Pants and Tank Top; Size 11 Pants, Sz M Tank Top
Songstress Yuna Top X2; One XL, One S/M
Sailor Mercury Bootcovers; Fits over Size 6 Shoes SNUG!
Custom Painted Utena Shoes +NICE red knee high socks; Size 6
Wigs
Mizuno Ami/Sailor Mercury Wig
Kasumi Wig (Pulled back and braided w/bangs)
Yuffie Kisaragi/Short Black Wig
That is just everything I have already sorted through and found most of the parts to. A few of the costumes need repairs before they are sold, but after repairs I will be more then willing to take new pictures. Right now I am going from memory and am on my brother's computer. I haven't set any prices yet, but here you can get an idea of what I am selling costume wise. If you are interested, or no someone who might be interested in these things let me know! I will put those repairs on priority.
Keep in mind the costume list has things spanning from the beginning of my costuming until recently so they are by NO MEANS perfect and the sizes do very so just ask if you want to know. I can't really give you my exact measurements from the last 4 years but I can do my best to give you a round about size and/or measure the items myself. (FYI I have gone from a size 5 to a size 11 in the past 4 years, so the older costumes are smaller.)
I haven't had a chance to go through all of my fandom related things, but once my room is totally clean and gone through I will be able to put together a list of both clothing/accessories and fandom related items.
For your information, I won't be parting with anything Sailor Venus related, so don't even ask. I have a shit load of Sailor Venus stuff and it is just too close to my heart for me to give up just yet. Heck I am still collecting. XD I saw a few Sailor Venus things Callie was selling/getting rid of and really wanted them for myself!! I am such a goober, but it is the one thing I have been collecting for awhile and I just adore my cute little collection! :3 hehe!
LEETTT me know if you are interested in anything!!!

I took a shit load of pictures on both mine and chiigusa's cameras so I am going to be making quite a few photo posts to kind of orginize them all. I took somewhere around 300 photos throughout the weekend, so this could last awhile.

Well, I finally made it home. Yesterday actually, but I went stright to bed and didn't really get up for the rest of the night. Overall Otakon kind of sucked for me, I might go into more detail later, but it wasn't worth the $700+ that was spent on it and I am not really that sure I will be doing Otakon again. Maybe only if Rian wanted to go.
Virginia trip was A+++++ though, and I am very greatful for Holly and Amanda!
I just wanted to hop on here and make my shout-out post before I forgot who all I ran into. <.<;; I won't have pictures for quite some time because I made the mistake of putting them all on Nana's computer and it has been one mishap after another. Now she doesn't have internet, so I am not too sure when I will get the some odd 200 pictures I took. When I do finally get them I will make a HUGE picture post, so keep a lookout for that.

It was a blast showing you around, even if we didn't actually get to do everything we wanted to for whatever reason. We are always so silly together, but it is like double-twin explosion all over the place. I don't think one shoutout on livejournal is nearly enough to express how much fun I had with you. I can't wait for Otakon so we can do it all over again! XD Thank you for everything you did for Rian and I these past couple days, I really appreciate it, eating would have been impossiable without you! :3Pictures
If you have dial-up this may kill your computer because it is VERY image heavy. I just picked a few of my favorites from each day to post here, at the bottom there is a link to the photobucket account so you can scan through and check out the rest. This is actually a collection of three people's pictures so there might be some doubles. (Mine, Jamie's and Holly's) As usual, if you gank any pictures from me just give a little credit. You can credit any of the three of us, but at least credit one. Also, if you have any pictures of us feel more then free to give me a link I would love to see them!
( PICTURES LIKE WOAH! )
Well, those are my favorites! The rest are here! I have hella pictures from the past couple days while Holly was here but those can be saved for another livejournal post.
As usual icons and other graphics are love!
I have my 100 LJ icons back! XDD

I have been watching Leave it to Piyoko on YouTube, it is so retardly adorable I just can't help myself.
For some unknown reason Piyoko, Rik, Ky, Coo and the whole Black Gema Gema Gang remind me of my friends . . .
I can just see our kidnapping mission turning out much like theirs. LMAO.
I think that is why I am enjoying this so much. :3
Anyway, I just thought I would share with everyone . . .
The adorableness is eating my brain pyo!!!!!!~~~
I must go back and watch some more! XD
Luff you guys!!!
For those of you going to Katsu, have fun and be safe! I can't wait to see loads and loads a pictures when you return! :3
Edit!: After thinking about it, and thinking about our crazy adventures I have decided that if we were characters from Leave it to Piyoko I would be none of ther Piyoko herself, bloodysakura would be Lieutenant General Ky and happogiri would be General Rik!!!!!!~~~ :3 LMAO.
