Well hello there deviantART, the name's Denise, though in certain circles I'm known as Krethes- the cosplaying circles, mind. I can't sew to save my life usually, but I'm really ace at make-up techniques and a fair hand at wigs. I'm an artist through and through, with literature, cosplay, drawn art, and the musical arts. We are sure to have something in common.

My sense of style varies, and I can't really describe it. I don't shop at fancy stores, and JCPenny and Goodwill are my main suppliers of goodies, and usually the most expensive things I own are gifts from my less tightwad friends. I'm very careful with my money, I am.

I've been told I have a very twisted sense of humour, and I'll admit it's true. I won't laugh at kicked puppies or anything, because I like puppies, but I will laugh if you fall on your ass or if someone has done something to deserve a Darwin Award. I'm easily amused in the best of times, and irritable towards stupid jokes at the worst of them, so play your cards carefully. :3

My absolute favourite sort of literature is historical fiction, which goes hand-in-hand with my fancy for period films. Give me The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen over Star Wars any day. So if you write historical fiction and you're any good (and I will tell you if you're not, the literary snob that I am), do hit me up.

Oh and because I think it's always interesting to know about a person's background, I'm Irish and French. While one's lineage will not define them completely, it does tend to play a very large role in how they act, how they are raised, and how they carry themselves.

Research papers and bottled water

Journal Entry: Wed Nov 18, 2009, 4:42 PM


Two things that sit on opposite sides of my "GARG" spectrum.

Three guesses as to which is on the negative end, and two don't count.



If you're incredibly silly and got it wrong, I'll tell you: research papers. Why do I hate them so? ...I don't know a single person who enjoys them, that's why. I love writing and even basic analysis essays can get me going, because I enjoy picking apart bits of literature and discussing them, but research papers?

BLAH.

I like researching topics that interest me and, while John Keats's "La Belle Dame sans Merci" is a wonderful poem and I highly recommend it, the entire process of citing and doing MLA format and all sorts of other rubbish is entirely unappealing and mundane. I prefer having verbal discussions, because then I can use contractions! >:[ ...and my hands. :3

Now, bottled water- I love bottled water! I don't care what scientists and environmentalists say about it, it's handy, and I love convenience. I just take one with me where ever I go and I'll have finished it, 8 times out of 10 by the time I return home. It means I can get in my "8 glasses a day", though that number is being contested, I've heard.

-ahem-

So...by the way, this journal entry has two parts for the reasoning behind it.
1.) I'm prolonging my research paper though, to my credit, I only have the dumb appendices left to do. However, I will likely go back and add another three paragraphs or so to reassure myself that I went the extra furlong.

2.) A sort of explanation as to why I've not been submitting stuff or writing journal posts. xD I'll be uploading some of my photoshoot (no cosplay, just me!) pictures whenever I have decided that my paper is perfect (so don't hold your breath).

Right then. Back to my appendix, and not the one that will rupture when I'm least expecting it.

Yes and no. xD He's in the Army and is currently deployed to the Iraq as of a little less than a month ago. He's taking college courses online while he's there, though. But yeah...she's fretting.
