Happy Birthday, Calizaire!! :D
My best friend's birthday is coming up, and I got this brilliant idea to finally finish her "Dory" tail that she has been wanting to do forever. She has the tail base and the monofin, all I have to do is sequin and paint it. It's going to take me forever, but I think it will make her very happy. That, and I have been wanting to make a Surgeonfish tail since I started mermaiding in '09.
Happy birthday! [emoji227][emoji225]

I just bought tickets to Ireland! It's real. I have tickets. This is a trip I've been trying to take since I was 13, and it's finally happening. I'll even be there for my birthday! :D
Any Irish mers on here?
This is my 100th post on the Mernetwork! Considering I've been a member for years I'm actually a bit suprised this is finally it but nevertheless, I think it's a happy occasion!
Thanks so much to every one who has made the past few years feel a little more magical and made me feel a little less crazy for following my mermaid dreams. It's so wonderful to know there's a whole community of mermaids out there! You all give me so much life.😘😘😘
I started sewing the fluke neoprene of my sequin tail together. I'm not even 1/4th of the way done with getting the fluke sewn together but I'm excited to start working on this again.

I feel happy today because I actually FEEL pretty today. It's so rare for me. But Today is a great day for my face

Well, you ARE pretty, so it's good that you feel that way!
Haha thanks Vrindavana! I just have extremely low self esteem (like most people or a vast majority) so when I have a day where I actually feel pretty, I want to savor it, since it's not often at all.
I'm hanging out with my friends tonight and we are eating ice cream and making pizza! I'm so excited.

Non mermaid related, BUT I read that Petco is having their "Dollar Per Gallon" aquarium sale again! I'm really wanting to get a 55 gallon aquarium and start a female betta sorority! I've been wanting to do this FOREVER(since I've developed my betta fish obsession and failed to breed bettas, so since 2010 maybe longer) I want to build my own stand(because aquarium stands are F-ing expensive) and put this the tank into the living room, mostly because one of the walls is mirrors and I think it would really look good in there, plus the room would get used more. The one thing I was looking for to put into the tank was little ceramic sake cups, but i cannot find a large set of them, or I was going to do a overgrown castle ruin theme, or something. I also need/want to redesign my 30 gallon into a Atlantis ruin theme. Oh boy! I've just realized how much i rambled, don't judge me i'm obsessed with fish tanks and I know i have a problem but its like midnight here and i had an energy drink at work and i'm just going to stop here because i'm just rambling more.... If you read this WHOLE thing i'll send you a hug and high five... okay i'm done now.
Unfortunately it's not filmed but opening night went so well!! It was honestly the most intimidating performance I've ever had to give. We spend a year just watching and observing all the other acting companies and this is finally our time to show our merit and it's just overwhelming. One of the artists I look up to most in our program came up to me afterwards and said "You are just riveting to watch." I about died 😢😢😢 I've spent so much of this year wondering if acting was the right career path and last night just helped reconfirm my love for it.Quote:

Break a leg! I don't have to tell you how difficult acting can be as a career. Keep working hard and making good connections that you trust and never be afraid to walk away from an "opportunity" that makes you uncomfortable or gives you a bad vibe. Keep loving it and doing what you love!Quote:
