Well, I actually got my shirt completed. Dad helped me with it starting on Tuesday evening. We spent ages puzzling over how to work the pattern. XD; After two calls to my grandma, we sorted things out and got the material cut. Then the sewing began! The first night we got the basic thing sewn up, but it still needed hemming and the hood (and the chains). On Wednesday we didn't do anything with it. I went to the youth activity and to my shock, we went to the corn field even though it had been raining like mad. XD; Oh I am so glad I didn't fall. My boots got caked with mud, though. I spent a while trying to get it all off when I got home. ANYWAY, so then on Thursday we got back to the shirt and sewed the hood and my dad figured out how to attach it while I did most of the hemming myself. ^___^! **is quite proud, since she has never used a sewing machine before.** Then Dad sewed the hood on for me and the end result looked awesome. I couldn't seem to sew the chains on right, so finally I pinned them on with safety pins. XD; It looks good. When we get the pictures developed, I'll post my costume up at Cosplaylab.com. I wound up using flannel instead of fleece, but dang, it was softer and nicer than I thought it would be. **pats it.** Flannel was cheaper, too, but the main reason I got that kind of material was because my Wal-Mart was out of lavender fleece. ^__~

So then on Friday I went to the Halloween party my church was having. I signed up to help out with stuff, so I wound up running the fishing booth for the kids (at my choice, because I've always loved the fishing booths). Business was hopping. XD I really enjoyed it, except for this frustrating girl who kept trying to reach around and grab extra pieces of candy. --.--;;; Some kids. My dad came over when the news ended and he was just in time for the food. Some rude people claimed our seats even though we'd already laid our belongings on them to state that they were occupied, but other than that things were good. ^__^ After the food, they were showing a movie (The Ghost and Mr. Chicken), but Dad didn't really wanna watch it and I have it here at home, so we decided to go get his books from the university instead. On the way home he let me stop at Barnes and Noble in the Gateway and I finally got book one of The Bounty Hunter Wars. XD That's my favorite of the trilogy, actually. I read it from the library two and a half years ago, but I'd never gotten around to buying it until now. **huggles it.**

Saturday I had intended to come online to chat at some point, but that never happened. XD; I was answering the door in the evening (Halloween is celebrated on Saturday in my area when it falls on Sunday) and then Larry and JoDee came over with Dean and we all visited for thirty minutes or so. Then I decided I wanted to go show my next door neighbor my costume and I found that it was a nice, mild evening and so I then decided to go around to some other houses (I'd originally thought it'd be too cold). After that, I came home and wrote more of part 2 of my Bass.EXE trilogy, still wearing my costume because it felt nice and comfortable and also because I still wanted to show my aunt my costume. This is the aunt who still lives in my neighborhood. The other two live farther away now. **nodnod.** So anyway, then Mom called over again and found that she was home, so Dad took me over and I visited with her for a little bit. She told me I looked like Marik. ^___^ When I came home, I finished writing my trilogy with the extra hour of Saturday. I only went online to post the thing and quickly check everyone's Livejournals. Shortly after the trick-or-treaters stopped coming around, it started to SNOW! Muwahahaha. Okay, so it was only a dusting, but STILL. . . .

Sunday was extremely cold. XD It was a nice, quiet day, spent with going to church, having a nap, going to practice for The Messiah, playing the piano, writing in my notebook, and coloring a picture of Bass while we had our family hour thing. I had a really weird dream when I had my nap. It had something to do with a cemetery and Bass (robot Bass).

I finished watching my MKR tapes last week. They were both from season 2. One was tape 3 and the other was the final one, tape 7. When I first watched the episodes on the last tape, I was surprised when Eagle died during an explosion. I thought he died in the same way he got put into a coma during the manga, when he and Hikaru were being tested to see who was the one suited for being the new Pillar. Hikaru was chosen and in the manga, Eagle was then going to disappear. But she grabbed onto him and pulled him with her into the main dimension of Cephiro. The experience was painful for them both and Eagle went into the coma, but he was still able to communicate with Hikaru through telepathy. I was surprised at that when I saw it in the manga on Friday. I'm not sure I like that much. XD; If Eagle did ever come out of the coma, it seems that it wouldn't be quite as poignant since he and Hikaru had been able to talk while he was in it. I mean, compare that to if he was just in a normal coma and not being able to communicate. It would be all the more joyous, then, if he actually managed to wake up. On the other hand, I never like explosions as a way of killing characters for good. If there's no body, you can't really prove the person died! HA!

On Saturday we finally started Sonic Adventure 2! It was great. My only complaint was that they cut it off right before we would have (hopefully) got to hear Shadow speak. I wanna hear what he sounds like! Now I've gotta wait till this coming Saturday. XD

**rolls eyes at review for Part Two.** She says that my Bass characterization is off, but she didn't tell me how. --.--;;; So that's a heckuva lot of help to me. I'm sure his characterization is off, going strictly by the fandom. But in Part One, which this girl also read if I remember right, Bass goes through an extremely painful and traumatic experience that results in him regaining his lost memories and being able to see everything in a clearer light. He then sees and realizes that maybe he was wrong in seeking for revenge for so long, but he's extremely confused about what he should do with his life now. Part Two continues where the first one left off. I don't portray Bass.EXE as really acting very nice to anyone, except Gospel, so I don't quite see what this girl is talking about since she wouldn't elaborate.
