Hiya, how has September been for you guys?
Also, I gave up on waiting to borrow the big camera that my dad owns for my posts. That was the main reason as to why I rarely posted. I feel weird carrying a camera around anyway. Maybe later in the future. For now, I'm using my roommate's old galaxy s4 (I think). It takes better photos than the iPhone does. I kind of hope I can get a galaxy s5 for my next phone.
Last weekend I went to Yaoicon (yes, I actually really liked yaoi back then) in San Francisco. My roommate had a free ticket so she gave it to me. The ride there was kind of long but it was worth it.
She was a volunteer at the convention so I hung around her for a bit and once she was free, we explored artist alley and dealer's hall. Let me be honest; if not for the fact that I am a poor college student, I would have bought literally everything within my line of vision (at artist alley). But instead, I had to think long and hard about what I wanted to buy. I eventually decided on two posters: a Howl's Moving Castle poster and an Okami one.

Truth be told, I've never played Okami but I've always wanted to so...also, it looked really nice so I couldn't help it. The total was $25 but my friend spent way more I'm comparison. What can I say, I'm just stingy.
I bought them from the artist chiou! She was really patient with me (I kept coming back to her booth pfft to look at her art). She has some neat art so check her out. I'll post her links at the bottom of the post.
My friend got me a plushie too!! It's a green tea mochi cat~ I told her I've had all of my stuffed animals taken when I was still fairly young so she promised to buy me one (She even bought another one for me and it'll be shipped I'm late October. What did I even do to deserve such kindness? ; v ;). Thank you Athlein!!
Sadly, this month is ending on a sad note because I'm currently dealing with the first wave of midterms. To anyone who has tests coming up as well, good luck!!
Anyway, it's time for me to go study for my bio and ochem exams next week.
Thanks for reading!
Theresa
