THANK YOU, THANK YOU FOR THE FAVES/DEVWATCHES/COMMENTS!!!!!!!


Well look who's here (for a very brief time)? I've actually been wanting to post for a while, but have constantly been delayed. That said, this'll probably be a nice long journal

Welp, Fanime 2010 has come and gone and it was fun. It was a lot of stress before and during but it really was worth it. It reminded me of why I love doing what I do.

Thank you to everyone who came by the table and said hi and a HUGE thank you to anyone who purchased my doodles and my magnets/keychains/pendants, etc. I really appreciate it. At the end of the day it just feels good to know people like what you do especially when you're in an artist alley crammed with huge names and great artists. Seriously, it was kind of a downer to see how many awesome people were selling; I can't believe I managed to compete against all that.

So, with that in mind. I really need to change some things. I need to seriously improve my art, maybe change my style or something. But I need to be better. REALLY better in order to compete. I also need to get more fanart out there since that's what everyone loves. And I also need to find better, more cost and time-effective methods to make my unique glass magnets and keychains (which are always my best sellers). I want to make more and really expand but unfortunately it's not really cheap or easy. Admittedly, it's a little frustrating when you see people buying laminated chibi characters for $5 and hesitant to pay for GLASS keychains/bails with sterling silver bails or GLASS magnets w/ super strong neodymium magnets. It felt good when people's jaw dropped and told me that my prices were CHEAP instead of giving me that "$2.50-4.50 for this? what?" look. To those of you who thought that and bought stuff THank youuuu!

But enough of the rant. In addition to having people buy my stuff and boost my ego, it was just so awesome to see some friends I hadn't seen in a looong time. And it was also great to meet some new ones. Like who kept me company and is now convincing me to go to SNAFU con and table there. Lol. I felt so cool to have a talented celebrity at my table. It was so nice to have friends to talk to and hang out with.

Now I will be at SacAnime this Sept so look for me there (you might actually have to hunt down the AA location since it's out of the way and...well not ideal). And I also plan to be at SNAFU in Reno thanks to

I forgot to mention in my last post something that made me a little less boring: I went to visit family in the Philippines and attend an awesome Star Wars Wedding (you read that right!) - complete w/ cosplay, Darth Vader, parade of storm troopers, C3PO, a live-sized home-made functioning R2D2, and other costumes! It was AWESOME and beautiful! Got to hit up Boracay (Hawaii of the Philippines) and snorkel and have some good memories w/ my bf, my sister & her family, and lots of good family friends.

I feel like I have so much I want to say but I'm not sure where to start! Anyway, maybe I'll make another post some time soon w/ some updates. Eitherway I just wanted to say Hi and Thank you to everyone for your support!
