STAR WARS CONCERT

Remember the fight bewteen Obi Wan Kenobi and Darth Maul in Star Wars episode I?
Remember the theme that played during their fight?
Well, it's called Duel of the Fates.
Someone from my class suggested that we should play it for the spring concert at my school tomorrow, and guess what? It ended up as one of our songs.
I AM SO EXCITE.
He found the sheets on the library, then all of us wind instruments had to transpose it into our key (I didn't get to do it all, but I play in the same key as the tenorsaxes, so I just look at their sheet when I run out of notes lol) except for the trumpet, she borrowed a trompet tuned in c, so she wouldn't have to transpose anything. Therefore, she is pretty much out guide. She is the only one looking in the original sheets.
Honestly, it's a challenge. Not as much playing it, as it is us screwing up in our sheets so we don't know when to play (we don't look in the original sheets, only what we've transposed. That's stupid yes.)
I SHOULD BE NEVOUS ABOUT SCREWING UP. BUT I CAN ONLY FEEL STAR WARS.
-I play the clarinet, by the way.

Anyway, just so excited that I actually get to play a Star Wars song with a whole band in front of poeple!

[Yong Justice episode 13] - Joker reaction

So, I just watched episode 13 of YUNGU JUSUTISU (japanese accent by the way. Couldn't tell? Well fuck you then.)
The Joker appeared! And honestly, it got me excited. (I was excited to see Ivy too, but not as much.) And instantly I couldn't wait to hear his voice. And so I did. And honestly;
I WAS DISAPOINT.
I had expected all of the newer Jokers to take inspiration from Mark Hamill, but let me tell you why I was wrong.
First of all, it's just the reality I want, because I'm a huge Mark Hamill-fag (B:TAS contains my favorite Joker ever) and in The Batman, Kevin Micheal Richardson was obvilously trying to get the same feel as Mark Hamill, which he did great, by the way. And The Joker in Arkham Asylum/City, got crazy popular, so I guess I kindda expected all Jokers after that to be..well, like that!



But I forgot to consider Batman: The Brave and the bold. They tried to bring some of the old Batman elements back. I did a little Joker-voice-reaserch and it occurred to me that, not only did they make Joker's character design more retro, but also his voice.
AAAANNNND the voice of The Joker is actually pretty similar to the one in The Brave and the Bold. So I thought: "They tried to bring back some retro elements, why shouldn't Young Justice?" This concerns The Joker mostly, even tho, of course, I am not sure if that was what they were going for, so I'm kindda just guessing.
But they DID include Jay Barrick, so maybe they are trying to bring back some good ol' school DC.
Okay, I'm really just fooling around now, lol.

              Legends of the Dark Knight - 1950   Batman The Brave and the Bold - 2008
                            Micheal McKeen                                      Jeff Bennet 
This is a very extreme examble, not all Jokers looked like that until 1992.


My point is that I just can't get enough of that Jedi, and I want every Joker to be like him. I should might as well give up, since no one can do it like him, and he won't be doing it again. And, to be completly honest, a lot of good Jokers sounds unlike Hamill, like the one from The Red Hood. Oh well, every Joker has his own voice and brings a new persona with it, and that's okay, it wouldn't be fun otherwise.
There is ONE THING tho..


                What is up with those side-burns?

Progress

My last blog got suspended or sum' shit.
So
This is my new blog. I'm going to start out by showing some progress in my Harley Quinn cosplay:

Jackass t-shirt suits it, huh?
It has a top part too, now, and it makes me look less chubby. (Denial? Pfff...pf.pfff....Maybe.)
It's made of spandex, and man, I never expected spandex to be so danm comfortable.
*coug* Anyway.

I also bought a mask. A motherfucking latex mask, bitches!
Yes, I actually paid about 65$ for this mask, adhesive and glue remover. (and porto, of course.)
It's difficult to place it correctly on my face, since the glue sticks to my face, like, INSTANTLY, but I didn't want a mask with a string, because that would be incorrect according to her actual desing, and painting it on almost NEVER looks good. SO I did what I had to do, and cought up the money for a high quality mask. I REGRET NOTHINGGGG.
It doesn't cover my eyebrows. I don't even...
Some sportstape and white paint will suffice, I belive.

SO LONG~
