Meet Gooey-Chan

Gooey-Chan is my new mascot!

Where did he come from?
Well, this all started when I was creating some cool t-shirt designs for Kyary's concert. After that was made, I was working in my basement an suddenly got this idea! I put him on paper and drew 2 other versions as well. Then i figured, since I don't have a mascot, why not make it him!

Why is his name Gooey-Chan?
I created the Locobu t-shirt logo with goo underneath, as well as drew goo on my original drawings of him...I figured it fit nicely!

And now a little about Gooey-Chan:
Gender...Male
Birthday...March 10th
Likes...Gummy Worms, Messy Food, Triangles
Dislikes...Rain, Country Music, Fishy Foods

Lately, I've been coming up with so many ideas for things to design and sew, fun ways to sell my ideas (how I present them) and where I would like to sell stuff!! And so far, my plans look like they will be successful in time :) I just have to wait of course and keep my ideas flowing. You know what they say...good things come to those who wait! I've been using that motto since I was young :D

Anyways, I hope you will be Gooey-Chan's friend! Stay tuned for some upcoming ideas/projects/etc.!

Kyary's Concert was SO FUN!!

So I went to Kyary's concert at Sound academy yesterday and IT WAS SO MUCH FUN!!
But man the sound academy sucks....rude workers and so unorganized!!!!!
Anyways, it was good, no need to complain -w-

        Me and Kyary!!                               Francis and Kyary!!

I gave her 2 gifts (a matching collar and a t shirt with a cool logo design I made)
Francis gave the shirt, since I thought it would be nice if he gave something too.....and he was wearing the matching one! I gave the collar. I put my tag on both, but I didn't give a business card or any sort of letter because I thought...well I wasn't sure if she would actually read it or go take a look.

and now it's time for a very long life story message thing...not really life story but yea xD
I just feel like sharing my thoughts with the world because I am in a positive mood!! I hope you have some time to read it!

I hope that it will be easy for me to achieve my dream. Up until this day, I have had so much negative things happen to me, I won't get into all the details because there is too much, but people who made fun of me, bullied me, or used me because they found my weaknesses and took advantage, people who are simply just rude and inconsiderate or do it because they didn't like me. But I kept trying to work on making myself stronger, learning to ignore or just get used to hearing stupid comments, not work on what people thought of me/ what people want me to be. I know where I wanted to go, I know what I wanted to do, I know who I am, and really, I have grown into someone who now just sets my eyes on the prize!! (I don't let anyone tell me anything negative...I literally just tell them to stop talking or just ignore and pretend I am listening xD) I have really been working on ways to stand up for myself and I think I have really been able grow! I know right now, giving my stuff may not mean anything. Im not famous or well known, but I have to start no where to get somewhere!!!
I don't need to be super famous to be happy, I just want to achieve my dream of becoming a designer and have a good amount of fans ^^ Obviously it would be nice to have a lot of fans, but I don't wanna ask for too much right now. I ask for just this: to slowly become more established as a designer and become recognized by people around me (which is at conventions, or even around town!)
Lately, I have been planning some things! I would like to start selling stuff online! (which is the big news I wanted to announce to my facebook page this weekend!) Maybe people won't care, but it is big news for me because I am actually getting on my feet and trying to create something for myself...and well, for others too! xD For now, I was thinking just t-shirts with my designs and collars. I'll also sell my fashion show stuff, cosplays I don't want anymore, or anything else that I have and want to sell. I have been using Adobe Illustrator a lot lately and I found it so easy to create fun designs for t shirts!

The reason I just had this very large paragraph about my dreams....I just read over how Kyary had a concert dedicated to her new song and held a small graduation ceremony and chose some people from the audience, then gave them some advice about how they can achieve their dream. It's just very inspiring to always here that people, wherever in the world they are, are having fun, giving to others, and taking full advantage of the joy they have while living their dream. I hope that, one day, I can also do this!!! I want to make others happy because that just makes me happy too!
I've also been trying to figure out ways to get my name out there and I am doing my best to make that happen!
I am thinking this will be my plan for now: Start selling things online, and next year, maybe sell at Anime North, and then just see how things go from there!

I wish it were easy...so that everyone in the world can do what they dream of, but thats just me talking very cheesy. I hope that everyone finds a path to follow so they can keep walking towards their goal :3 I try my hardest to help my friends with their goals and passions as well!! I want them to be just as successful as I would like to be!! I work as a team with them and ask them whenever I need some help for a fashion show or any other type of event!

Well, now I have to go and clean my room because we've been moving things around because I got new furniture! Bye bye~!

...actually wait...before I go..whoever reads this. I hope that you enjoyed reading it. I hope it brought you some joy. I really appreciate the people who give up a few moments to look at my picture, give me a like, read a journal entry, etc. etc. etc. everything you do really makes me feel happy and I would like to give back by showing my appreciation and thanks!!! If you don't know me on a personal level, I am one to really express my feelings to those around me. I like to fully show my happiness when it is at it's highest level!!
If you read this and thought...I don't know, maybe I am just giving a sob story, or maybe you thought what i wrote was stupid and you think I am strange or want attention...something stupid like that...well thats ok! Thats your own thoughts! You can think whatever you like, but think about this. I am willing to share my thought s with the world, my positive thoughts. This is the secret to living a happy life. Sharing something positive will help to make someone else feel the positive energy. If you don't feel it....maybe you just have gas.....or maybe you just dont have an interest in what I am talking about! (thats ok though! You go find the thing that brings you happiness!)

Ok now I can go :3
