Anime Weekend Atlanta – Saturday
My first anime cosplay! I’m Little Washu from Tenchi Muyo. I had a wig that I was trying to dye pink but I ruined it, so I just had to be a blond Washu.
Other cosplayers from my same anime were there! I didn’t know them but I got a picture.
Ayeka, Ryoko, Washu
(Yes I had the cute little Washu robots on my shoulders.)
My Washu Costume
Here was someone dressed as the main character of the anime I was from:
Tenchi
And here are a couple of cosplayers who were dressed as characters from animes I liked.

Fred Visit Day 6
My first day of school!
Monday was my first day of summer school, ugh. After I got home from school and work, Fred and I went out to get my textbooks and then went to the computer lab so that he could see a project I’d done.
On a Mac at the lab
Then we went to have our lunch.

Hugging my pillow Thbthb
A positive fridge magnet message
We looked at some of my drawings and then read through some of my very silly journals. Then we watched the movie Phenomenon and had pizza. And then we read my journals some more and went to bed. 🙂
Fred Visit Day 5
Visiting my parents!
We got up sorta early so we could drive to my house.

We had breakfast with Jessica and Ron at McDonald’s and came up with our new idea for taking over the Internet. Then we got on our way.

The beach!
We ate at IHOP and then headed to the beach.

Our castle
The castle we made
Ivy’s castle
We decided that I was the castle’s evil witch, Jessica was the moat monster, Ron was a knight or something, and Fred was the princess. 🙂 Later we went home and I dozed. 🙂
Waking up on the couch
We went to a Thai restaurant which kind of pissed us all off because it seemed we got bad service everywhere we went. Later we had ice cream and watched some of Tenchi in Tokyo.
