I've been really, really busy and still have no time to update on it D: But anyway, update on studying abroad:

Goucher didn't have a Japan program, so as much as I wanted desperately to go to Japan, it would be pretty difficult. I'd have to go through another college and it would mess with my financial aid and I probably wouldn't be able to afford it.

So, I decided on London instead. There's a psychology program through Goucher at Westminster College that looks really amazing. It would be cheaper and way more convenient, especially since I wouldn't have to learn another language.

However! I just got an email from Goucher, saying they have added 20 new semester long study abroad programs. Two of which are in Japan. SO OH MY GOD. I MIGHT BE GOING ANYWAY!!! There's a Japanese culture, society, language, and art one in Nagasaki that looks like all kinds of FUN!

*spazz time*

Guess I have to enroll in the Japanese class over at Towson anyway~

Now to try to work through comments >_>

EDIT: Now that I've read them, the Osaka programs looks more like what I want. Plus OSAKA. I want to go there!! It looks like fun~!

Osaka program :D )

Otakon = amazing. Just fyi.

Day one started with over three hours in line waiting to get in and register. We met some awesome people in line, so that was good. But still. THREE HOURS. That really contributed to our being exhausted thing. Plus we both had our chests bound so we were like...unable to breathe. Oh Baltimore in the summer.

Once we got in, we spent a good hour hunting for the fountains so we could get to the Yugioh photoshoot. WAY TO GO US. We followed an Ishizu and a Kaiba thinking they knew where they were going, but apparently they didn't either because they asked us for help. EVENTUALLY we found it :D And it was AWESOME. The Malik cosplayer was super awesome~

Then the wandering around began! We found the dealers room and made it about, oh, 1/4 of the way through. Seriously. IT'S HUGE. Tekkoshocon is nothing compared to this. I was kind of in overwhelmed excitement all day. But yeah, I hit up the yaoi doujin table pretty early on and drooled over that for awhile...then hunted around for stuff to hang off my DS.

We left the con to get lunch after that & then went back to the hotel just to rebind ourselves and rest for a second. One three hour nap later...we made it back to the con in time to look at the artists alley and buy ygo abridged t-shirts :D Then we went to the cosplay pajama party and watched them play duck duck goose. Until security stopped them XD We also sat down and played the yugioh card game for awhile, that was fun.

And then dinner...at about 11:30. Oh man. Good times. Then I uploaded pictures and passed out.

My pictures so far! :D

Goucher just called me! I was on the wait list for a single and I totally didn't expect to get one, but apparently they had extras!! So, I won't be living in air conditioning anymore but that is a-okay! I'm so fucking excited :D

Today is just awesome~ My Axel wig is looking about a billion times better, too, so I am super excited about that :3

CAKE MAKING EXPEDITION OF AWESOME:

So, last Thursday, Hannah and I made the most delicious cake I have ever eaten in my entire life. If you like peanut butter and chocolate, you must make this cake. It took all day but it was worth every second of it. Really. It's required for your life.

It was a baking day of fun. Hannah made delicious wings and I focused on the cake. The day began with making the cake batter and then baking the cakes. After they came out and cooled, the three layers were wrapped in wax paper and frozen. I had to run and take my brother to art class, but then I returned to her house.

Then, the building of the layers and the initial icing. The icing is a cream cheese peanut butter icing which basically tastes like clouds flavored with peanut butter. It was light and fluffy and just so perfect that I almost just ate the icing alone. God, so delicious.

Sooo after that I stuck the cake back in the freeze until it would be iced for real. Hannah had her therapist meeting so we went to that while the cake froze again. Upon return, I made the final part (the chocolate peanut butter ganache to be drizzled on it) and mmmmmm. SO TASTY!!! Holly showed up for the final bits to help us eat and finish the cake~

IT. WAS. AMAZING. If you never make any other cake, make this one. I cannot stress this enough. It's incredibly rich and delicious and just...I cannot put into words how good this cake was.

So now, PICTURES!!! And then the recipe :3

exciting times for delicious cake )

I have tons to type up about the fun day of cooking I had with Hannah yesterday, but FIRST. OH MY GOD. My mother sent me to the grocery store to pick some stuff up. AND LOOK WHAT I FOUND THERE.



I had a huge freak out and grabbed it like a person lost in a desert finding water. I was on the phone with Patti and all I could do was just SQUEE. LIKE SO MUCH SQUEEING. When I finally got home and opened it, I was practically drooling over the article. SO HAPPY. AHHHHH :D

Oh, enjoy a picture without the cover, too.

I cut the plastic off soooo carefully... )
