Summer is nearly over!

Well, it's that time of year again, You can't walk into a shop without being bombarded with "BACK TO SCHOOL IN SEPTEMBER!" banners, I feel like saying "Oh yes, thanks for reminding me, I've only begun a new school year for the last 13 years of my life, I'd completely forgotten that it began in september." And its not like parents are likely to forget when school starts either, chances are they've been marking off the days on the calendar, just willing the brats to be spending their days at school rather than either pestering them, or bleeding them dry with childcare.
Anyway, rant over.
It's almost time for school, I've got myself organised this time, I've read ahead, split my specifications into sections, organised my folders and started writing out keywords, in a nutshell - I AM PREPARED for the horror that is year 13.

I'd better change the subject before I explode with excitement (that was a joke), I've just finished my annual Primeval marathon - Woop!
I do it every summer, during the year I might watch the odd episode but I only watch them in order during the summer holidays, it's become a sort of tradition.

Anyway, this time I thought I might go to London Comic Con in October, and I decided to go as Abby (I admire her feisty, no-nonsense character), Naturally, I asked around for someone to come as Connor, I found my man, I tried to get a whole team together but everyone else is busy on that day unfortunately.
Oh well, the two of us are gonna have some fun, I've got a skirt already, not the one I'd hoped for, but it only cost me £2 and it goes with another Abby outfit.
This is the outfit I was hoping for
This is probably what I'm going for now























I'll also be making an anomaly detector for connor, and rex for me, then I'll customise a gun or two to make EMDs. :)



That's my bargain skirt, I have leggings but I'll need to get my hands on a purple hoodie, a scarf and the boots.
I'll keep the blog updated with any additions to mine or "Connor's" outfits, and hopefully I'll do a post on the event itself.

I'm signing off now to do some sketches for my EPQ.
Alons-y!
