In the show Barry has taken a few lucky girls on some interesting dates from bowling, to coffee, to lavish dinners. I imagine Barry would be fun to spend an evening with just chatting and laughing. He’s laid back and smart and let’s not forget a super hero! 😛
I’m going to save my opinion of the new Shadowhunters show for another post. (It’s not the best.) So let’s focus on Jace the character! Sure he may be a little self-absorbed at times but you can guarantee your date with him wouldn’t be boring. I actually like how in the show he is portrayed as very caring and protective. And he’s not bad to look at either! 😉
After I saw The Force Awakens I had trouble choosing a favorite character because they were all fantastic. Poe stood out to me the most, however, with his charm, strength and overall positive attitude. I’d love to go on a date with him because I am sure he’d be a gentleman with lots of cool stories!
If Jamie Fraser from Outlander is NOT on your fictional Valentine list then you are missing out! He has got to be one of the most romantic and thoughtful characters I’ve experienced in a book and show. He would quite literally risk his life for you so just imagine how great of a Valentine he’d be!
He may not have super human strength or be able to fly an X-wing, but Augustus from The Fault in Our Stars has a magic all his own. From his witty comebacks to his deep thinking, he would grant you meaningful and memorable moments. Not only that, but he’d be patient, kindhearted, and thankful for any time spent with you. He’d be a perfect Valentine. <3
Xoxo,
Glitzy
Looking forward to it, looking great from the pictures.
Oh wow, I never would have guessed! You've made a ton of progress on it already, it's looking great so far!
I won't be at Dallas Comic Con because I am graduating that weekend 🙁 The next convention I'm going to is A-Kon!
Thanks Mia! I change my mind on costumes a lot, but once I invest some time into it I get pumped about it!
Graduation is definitely more important than a con.. And big congrats in advance!! You and I will for sure hang out at A-Kon .. Not sure what my costume will be but I already have a ticket!
That looks amazing! I used to have a roommate who would make her own costumes for cosplay and I would just watch in awe. I got to make a friend of mine earrings for her Hawkeye cosplay at Seattle Comic con and that was super cool. That wig looks really good on you. It matches your complexion really well. I hope you have tons of fun at Comic Con 🙂
Thanks so much! I've been wanting to do a Luna Lovegood cosplay and she wears some cute jewelry that I've been wanting to make! Like raddish earrings 😛
You are doing a great job on the costume, I love putting together my own costumes!

Thank you! It's a cool feeling when you make it yourself don't ya think??
It's amazing to see all the steps involved in making your costume. I think it's going to look great!
You better start eating more cupcakes if you want to match Fiona's figure!
Wow! Totally awesome costume! Did you wear this to any other cons, by chance?
Thanks! And not yet.. I'm actually still working on some of it. Will be debuting it at the Dallas Comic Con.

I couldn't help smiling the whole way through this post. I just posted about how much I loved My Little Pony a couple days ago! 🙂
I loved this post. I was obsessed with MLP. I love the board game soo very much. My fave childhood toy were my SheRa action figures.
I had hardly any toys as a kid, just a couple of these ponies shared with my little sister and a toy phone. I remember my little sister cut off the mane of one and it was one of the saddest days everrrr hahaha

I still have a Rainbow Dash doll in my room 😀 Awesome blog by the way, I'm following you now!
Honorable mentions:
The Princess Bride, Enchanted, 27 Dresses, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, The Labyrinth, Ever After, Underworld, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, & Dirty Dancing
What? You didn't mention The Perks of Being A Wallflower.
Oh man!! That WAS a favorite of mine! Is it on DVD yet? That's one I'd like to own for sure!
I love the Mummy movies with Brendan Fraser, and Rachel Weisz.
Those were really well filmed! Love that even sequels were good! Brendan Fraser is so cute 😛
The following is just a preliminary draft of films which have relevance to my gratification: Apollo 13, The Awakening, Shine, Schindler's List, The Pianist, Amadeus, Steel Magnolias, Photographing Fairies, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Edward Scissorhands, An American Tail (Fievel), Girl Interrupted, The Family Stone, Christmas Vacation, Planes/Trains and Automobiles, The Great Outdoors, Interview with the Vampire, Doctor Zhivago, original Romeo and Juliet, A River Runs Through It, Legends of the Fall, Fight Club, Se7en, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile, Capricorn One, Beaches, For the Boys, Saving Private Ryan, Good Will Hunting, Good Morning, Vietnam, Dead Poet's Society, A.I., One Hour Photo, It, all Saw movies, Wrong Turn movies, The Red Shoes, The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Young Guns, Love Actually, To Kill A Mockingbird, When Harry Met Sally, You've Got Mail, Sleepless In Seattle, Catch Me If You Can, Titanic (mainly because he should not have died), Meet Joe Black, City of Angels (he should not have fallen)…….to name a few.
Ferris Bueller's Day Off, The Breakfast Club, Pretty In Pink.
Amazing list!! A few that stood out for me were Romeo and Juliet, One Hour Photo, Saw, Love Actually, Catch Me If You Can, and The Breakfast Club … Those would definitely be on my list, too! Except I would have the new R&J cause I love Leo sooo much 🙂 And you're right – he shouldn't have died in Titanic. MythBusters even said so!!!
The Lord of the Rings trilogy is really high on my list too! Good pick.
I wouldn't count it as one of my favorite movies, but I enjoyed Stardust a lot. Way more than I expected to. I only recently realized that it was based on a book (which I haven't read) written by Neil Gaiman. He writes some really great stories.
I'm not very good at making favorites lists. I'd definitely include Lord of the Rings. The Kill Bill movies are on the list. Fight Club is a favorite (I'll give a shoutout to another great modern author here, Chuck Palahniuk).
Tree of Life is a movie that I saw recently, not really knowing what to expect from it. I was mesmerized and ultimately blown away by it. I think I'm obligated to include it on my list of favorite movies just because I've never had a movie experience like it before. It's really hard to explain, but I loved it.
The Breakfast Club is my favorite 80s movie, so it earns a spot on the list.
And finally, The Big Lebowski.
I'm sure I'm overlooking plenty of other great movies that I love, but these are the ones that readily come to mind.
Worst movie: Howard the Duck. More favorites, A Few Good Men, As Good As It Gets, Predator, Alien, War Games, Glory, The Devil Wears Prada (clothes are nice), Shallow Grave is just plain strange.
I will have to check out Tree of Life.
I have never watched How To Deal, it looks awesome. I love myself some Mandy Moore.
What are your feelings for The Matrix and then in turn the whole trilogy?
There was a band called Slick Shoes too which was a late 90's early 00's punk(ish) band. They were big Goonies fans (Check out the album "Wake Up Screaming").
My FAVES: The Goonies, Empire Records (we watched this like once a week in college), Bridget Jones' Diary (my weirdly placed chick flick), The Boondock Saints, and, The Dark Knight and more recently Wreck it Ralph (I was actually quite miffed at how good this was), Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland, Howl's Moving Castle, The Empire Strikes Back & Return of the Jedi(original theatrical release…none of the touch ups from Lucas on both of these); Heavyweights; South Pacific; Sound of Music; Amelie; Casper; Ghost World; Hello Dolly; Kill Bill Volume 1; Love Actually; Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels; The Great Muppet Caper; Newsies;Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist; Rushmore; Serenity; SLC Punk; Tokyo Godfathers; Snatch…
Ok…I think that's a safe list to end with…
Great list!! And I actually LOVE SLICK SHOES!! They were my fav band growing up .. I even have their name tattooed on my ankles! 😀

Thanks for linking to the interviews! It's so interesting to hear more about your cosplay experiences. It's great that you were selected to be interviewed for these pieces, and hopefully there will be more to come.
Enjoy SOE Live! I won't be attending, but it should be fun! I'll look forward to the EQ:Next (EQN? What are people calling this?) reveal whenever it becomes available to the general public, but I'm excited that you'll get to see it live and in person. I don't know how far along in development it is, but maybe they'll even have live demos that you can play while you're there.
Congratulations!!!! They are both great interviews. Can't wait to see your Ashe cosplay.
Oh, i really like Meeting new folks today! Characterization is that the most significant factor to me furthermore.job interview And extremely get to Stephanie Perkins' books presently, they are superb 🙂 loved the interview!
That was really awesome. Makes my heart feel some kind of weird(might be fear, I'm not sure). You should feel proud, that really is quite the accomplishment. What made you want to post this now?
Thanks Joey! Every May, people come in to get their hair done for graduations or they are posting on Facebook about it, etc.. So I kinda reflect back on when I focused really hard on school! I found these old photos and decided to make a blog post! 🙂
That's such an awesome accomplishment! Congratulations! It's wonderful that you got through college so quickly and then went on to study cosmetology and then ultimately manage your own salon! You've accomplished so much in such a short amount of time! Be proud!
Also, I wonder if at the time everyone was wondering, "An iWhat? Who is this guy? We'll never hear of the iPhone again after today."
That's pretty remarkable that you have a picture of you opening Everquest II…. who would have thought you'd still be playing it so much after all this time?
That is so rad. I loved this post. You worked so hard to get where you are. 🙂
A belated congratulations on your accomplishments! I've seen two nieces graduate this past week and I've been contemplating going to school myself. At the age of 45, widowed, and with a 3 yo daughter, I think that it's something I need to do. Granted, I got an education through the Navy, but there's no paperwork showing what I did. 25 years later, I can still go back and fix a radio or a radar, but no documentation saying that I can do that. It's one of those situations where I've got the experience, but I don't have the diploma. But after seeing my nieces go on their merry ways, and then seeing your blog post, I'm beginning to think that it's about time.
Congratulations on your determination and accomplishments. You probably get the surprised look from clients and friends who never would have thought you had a college and cosmetology degree. You certainly look amazing in all of your photos. It's good to read your post about this and possibly encourage others that anything is possible.
You seem to excel at everything you do. Once you mentioned that when you grew up you wanted to be a snow cone maker. Check! A smoothie about now would be great! Now your hair has the cotton candy/snow cone look!
Will continue to read your blog and follow your adventures.
That was really awesome!
I actually didn't start my college carrer until two years ago because I wasn't ready right out of high school. I have my A.A. and this fall I'll be entering SF STATE to get my bachelor's degree. Here's hoping I can do it in two years!
Great story! Thanks for sharing!!
I spotted a Snow White POP! Happy belated birthday, girlie. Hope it was a good one.
