Normally I do. I'm one of those people that falls asleep within a minute or two of my head hitting the pillow! My absolute favorite time of day is RIGHT before I fall asleep, lol.

I'm not officially attending this year since it's so soon after I return to the states, but if I'm living in the southeast during that time, I might make an appearance to see my friends.

Of course! As long as it didn't conflict with my current plans, I would definitely consider it.

Hmmm, I don't think so? I'm kind of oblivious to these things, though.

NO, THEY'RE CUTE. Frogs, however...

They're not my thing, so I don't have plans for any.

I'm a bit late on answering this one, sorry! A few weeks ago I wrote out all my goals for my relationship, career, finances, fitness, cosplay, and personal aspects of my life. I think it's interesting going back a year later to see what I've accomplished. Anyway, they're kind of personal, but as usual with me, big changes are going to be happening! ^__^ I guess the main thing is that I will be moving back to America in August.

I think it should be a healthy mix of both. The photographer knows what looks good and how to work the model in with the scenery, lighting, etc. but the cosplayer knows the character and what feels natural to them. I personally give photographers a general idea of what kind of poses/shots I would like to do, and have them work with me from there! I'd rather the photog be a little bit bossy and have the photos turn out nicely.

Sleep, obviously.

Probably when all the hype dies down ^_^ I want to finish some other big projects first. Already planning Triple-H with my girls, though!

SPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDERMAN!

I'm anxious for my pre-orders (Madoka, Madoka petit nendoroid set, and Iori) but also have a few other things I would really love to have... like various Asuka figures.

The "new" Louise figure was actually released a few years ago, but I guess they're re-releasing it in anticipation of the new season. I bought mine at Anime Expo 2009 for a good deal. I hope they make more figures of her soon in different outfits~ or perhaps a Figma or petit nendo set! It's been a while since I was excited for a Louise figure.

Matt and I will have a quiet Christmas at our apartment; maybe invite some Japanese friends to come over. Most of my ALT friends will be going home or abroad for the holidays. We will leave for Osaka the day after Christmas, though.

It's celebrated a little here, but more in a commercial sense.

Nah, we don't have a TV since they're way overpriced in this country... as with cable/satellite services. Matt bought a mini projector before we moved, so we watch everything on that through our laptops!

I'm watching Mawaru Penguindrum, IdolM@ster, and Persona 4. There's a ton of series I'm slowly catching up on as well, but these just hold my interest the most right now. Matt and I are also watching Angel Beats together.

I love to!

Rapunzel.

I had platinum blonde hair when I was a child, and it got darker as I got older. I don't think I look very good with dark hair, so I get highlights since blonde is more of "my" color. Currently I just dye it myself since salons are outrageous in this country.

It changes seasonally. Right now I'm really into oranges since they're so juicy!

I think people can definitely go both ways.
