Allison Rocks!

You were meant for me. Perhaps as a punishment.

About Me

I love sewing, I am the president of our local ICG (international costumers guild) chapter, the SECS' Fiends.
I am always collecting and watching movies, working with photoshop, and other graphic design programs. I am a graphic artist by day, and a costumer by night. I can make commissions, but usually only do it when I need extra money to fund my own projects. My husband and I collect DVD's, we have not chose a side in the Blueray/HD battle and are still collecting standard DVD's. Once a winner has been decided we will quickly start buying that brand, I am really looking forward to it. I also really enjoy playing video games. My new Wii makes me very happy.

Although in my truly oldschool fashion I love love love Donkey Konga

and some various Nintendo - Nintendo 64 games that I will refuse to give up my systems so I can continue to play. I am a big con goer - I am up to 7 cons a year. The big one will always be Dragon*con.

I am also going to several anime conventions. The year usually ends with AWA. But I will travel with Imbrium Studio's all over the country. I have great friends at all of the conventions and look forward to them all year long.
How I made my profile:
I used Dave & Jay's amazing myspace profile editor .

I'd like to meet:

I would like to make new friends. Meeting interesting people with common interests to hang out with. Any con goers who want to hang out at conventions with me. Have some drinks, and party. Costumers, sewers people who can give me advice and visa versa. as far as idols go... I would really like to meet Alfred Molina one day. He is so hot.

So is D.J. Qualls.

hehe yummy!

Music:

Anything I can sing along with. Mostly Pop- or Bubble music. I am always teased because I tend to buy Disney Soundtracks.

Miley Cirus, Ashley Tisdale, and I am a big fan of the Black Eyed Peas. I like to dance and sing while I drive my car and sew.

Movies:

Any and Everything. Sci-Fi, Fantasy, horror, Comedy, Romance, Chick Flicks, Kids Films, you name it I love it. Well I wont say that because there are a few films that I have seen that make me cringe. Jennifer springs to mind... Plus I saw both Pi, and Requiem for a Dream two movies I will NEVER watch again, and I seriously regret buying before I saw. I have never been so terrified in all my life. Horrible movies! I could probably never pick a favorite movie. The Labrynth is up on my list, along with the LOTR Trilogy. Not many people will sit down and watch all three extended features back to back to back, but I will not hesitate when I have the time.

Television:

I am not a big fan of Television. The few shows I am really addicted to are Las Vegas,

Psych and Heroes

. Plus every day my Husband and I watch Attack of the Show on G4.

Olivia Munn is hot, and the show is entertaining. Plus I love nerdy knowledge, can't get enough. Everything else I can do without. I enjoy watching Lost, but really only on DVD. waiting between episodes is unbareable and the show goes at way too slow a pace for me to enjoy it. Plus I really can't stand all the loose ends. Finish a stupid plot line will ya! Geez! My husband loves TV and often encourages me to watch crap reality shows on VH1. I will sit through some of them, but I don't get upset if I miss it and I don't seek to watch them. As for everything else I buy seasons on DVD, and watch them all at once. Makes tv better when it seems like a movie.

Books:

Oh I really don't leave time to read. I go to bed as soon as I'm tired, I watch movies at night, I sew in my free time and really can't find time to do it. Not that I am incapable of reading, I am actually a very good reader. And I often enjoy a good book on tape while I have down time at work.

Heroes:

My mother, The Buff. I can't wait to grow up and turn out to be exactly like her. If only I can inherit her cooking abilities as well as her wit, and intelligence. My dad is also wonderful. I go to Lori Belle for all of my advice needs, she is my confidant. My lil' brother Glen is also a hero of mine, very awesome dude. And Neil, whom I cherish and adore. I don't know what my life would be like without him around taking care of me.

My Blog

No More Work, the countdown has begun

So, I guess I am getting married on Sunday. Unless Neil does something stupid, like miss his flight. I am very excited about this vacation, although it hasn't really hit me yet. I sent Ellen down t...
