I've been rationing my loot for many months, but as a minor without a job it's not like I have that much revenue in the first place  :D

I have a job, but what with bills and my addiction to Copics, comics, and fantasy novels... well it is pretty self explanatory... I've got about a thousand books stacked in my room... Turning into a regular Yomiko! XD

1,000 books is pretty impressive. Since I've been savingn for KCon I haven't bought any manga in so long... I feel so deprived T_T

My mom said she'd give me $100 for my 4.0 but that never happened. And I loaned my dad $160 of my hard earne/saved money. If he can't pay it back before KCon it'll be pretty depressing T_T

The Cosplay Workshop was quite the success, I think. I got the sides of my cannon finished, so that's one thing I can knock off the list.

I got 32 sensor plates cut today.  32 more and I'll be done with those.  Then I have to cut up thirteen 2x6's, twenty-two 2x4's, six 4'x8'x1/2" pieces of plywood, 64 sensor strips, and two 4'x8'x1/6" sheets of hardboard.  After I've got all those cut, I get to glue the bases for the 4 DDR pads, order 8 buttons from Happ, get 2 project enclosures from Radioshack and drill them so I can put the plugs and buttons in them, order 2 USB controllers from the internet, get 2 24"x36" pieces of Plexiglass, assemble the frames for the DDR pads, assemble the 64 for sensors, put them in the pads, and wire them all up, wire up the 2 USB controllers within the CB's, attach plugs to the DDR pads, test the DDR pads and control boxes, build the cabinets, wire the speakers, find 2 more speakers for the second cabinet and wire those up, find a computer to put in each cabinet, buy a couple VGA M-M cables, test each cabinet with an HDTV for lag, get ITG2 set up on both computer, PAINT the cabinets, put the CB's in the cabinets, hook the pads up to the cabinets and get the universal offset synced for both systems, secure transportation and parking for the con for four 90-lb DDR pads, two 150-lb ITG2 Cabinets, myself, and everything else I'm bringing to the con, arrive early Friday morning to set up and do a final test of the cabinets, head to a party with my Laptop and two pads, party hard until 11ish, then take the pads back to the Game room and get them set up with whichever cabinet they go with, go to bed, and then. . . READY FOR KUMORICON!

I've also got to find a chance to go out to Gresham to sell my bass, Go to a Kumoricon meeting, meet a friend to get some important documents I left in her car, recruit ODS student leaders from every high school in North Clackamas School District because I'm the crazy overachiever who volunteered to do so, make a sketchup model of my mom's house, and organize a meetup in 12 days with all my DDR friends so I can prep them for the DDR tournaments so they'll run smoother.

Goodbye Bass! you were always way cooler than Megaman!
That's awesome Tofu, I hope everyone appreciates your hard work.


I have to buy a couple of items at the costume shop this weekend, I hope the costume shop is open on Sundays because I don't want to try and rush over there Saturday morning.

Yeah, there's a lot of stuff I wanted to do which will have to wait until next year though, like making a really good-quality, marketable Game Room DVD, and making multi-output Preamps for Guitar Hero and BeatMania.  Oh well, I guess I'll just have to do a little less procrastinating and a lot more moneymaking next year. :D

Yeah, but that wouldn't get me any closer to being ready for Kumoricon. :P

I guess I'll see if I can pick up some scrap wood at a construction site (assuming someone's actually there tomorrow)

Ah, everything seems to be falling into place.Or rather, being shoved violently into place by me, lol. I still have quite a bit I need to do, but at least I can see this all being complete within the time frame. At least I can have the confidence that my cannon will be finished by next week. I still have a few articles of clothing I'm not so sure on. Eesh....I wish I knew more about sewing and could do it all myself.

heh, yeah, for sure. I think I'm going to do my best to learn how to use a sewing machine over this weekend so that I don't have to rely on others to make my stuff anymore. If anything, I think I could probably do my scarf and cape with minimal sewing experience.
