Ohisashiburi!

2 min read
(It's been awhile!)

Hi everyone! I kind of fell of the face of the DA earth! Oops! Someone kindly bought me a 12 month premium membership! I cannot let that kindness go to waste. Thank you, whoever you are :) 

Over the next few weeks, I'll try to bring my DA up to speed with my current costumes. There aren't toooooo many.. or are there? Heheh ;) 

What can you expect from me in 2014? iDOLMster. A lot of iDOLMster. For nearly a year, I've been heavily involved with this fandom, and I never want to stop! I made 2 ims costumes in 2013, and I have at least 4 planned for the next year. I need to find more costumes to make to off-set all of the cute. Hehe

Any who, any questions for me? :) I'll be working hard to stay at least semi-active here!

Katsucon~!

4 min read




Gah! I'm back from Katsu! I didn't really cosplay all that much since it was a struggle just to GET to the con... But I made it, and I'm happy for that. :')

I cosplayed Garnet for a photoshoot. I'll post some photos from that soon! I also had a closet cosplay of Lady Rainicorn! No photoshoots for that, but I'll post a photo still. :) On Sunday, a friend asked me to dress up as Stocking for a shoot, so I'll have photos from that as well! I guess this con wasn't a total cosplay-bust, now was it?

Looks like my premium membership is up! I may not have uploaded much in the year, but I sure went on DA everyday and browsed. It was nice not having advertisements. :) Thank you, mysterious person who gifted it to me a year ago. I really enjoyed it.

My next big con is ACen. I have NO idea what I want to cosplay for it! :( I kind of want to cosplay Asuna from SAO, even though everyone is doing it. I really love her character design. <3 She's my type of girl!

Actually, my entire cosplay list seems pretty damn blank. :( Kinda sad about that. I still want to cosplay from Madoka, but I have no idea who to be. lololol... Oh well.

Well, until next time! Bye bye!

Ohayocon!

4 min read




Despite all of my fighting, my friends have convinced me to back to Ohayocon... It's definitely not my favorite con, but there are so many friends that go... It's kind of impossible to say no sometimes.

Any who~ I'll be cosplaying Blossom (Power Puff Girls) with my friends Katie and Kristina as Bubbles and Buttercup, respectively. I'll also be cosplaying a humanized form of Lady Rainicorn from Adventure Time! I'm really looking forward to that one! It'll be so comfy~ HOPEFULLY, I'll have more friends joining me for that group!

After Ohayocon, I have Katsucon. I'm going to find a way there no matter what, even if that means I won't have anything new to show off... I'd rather just BE there than not at all.

Annnnd now to backtrack a bit!

I didn't really do much the entire summer except travel to Chicago. A lot. I really like it there, and would like to move into the city in the next year or two.

Youmacon was... meh. The hotel created a lot of last minute issues (wristbands for riding the elevator? wtf), and there was a lot of drama. More than normal. Honestly, I had a terrible time. If not for this being my home con, I might not go back. Since I have yet to miss a year, I can't help but still go.

I cosplayed a dressy Flareon, Garnet and a new costume from the unreleased SHAFT series "Magical Suite Prism Nana." It looks like it'll be super cute! I'll be posting images from all of these photo shoots as time goes on. :)

Well, now you're all up to date! Happy Holidays, everyone!

Summer! :D

3 min read




Colossalcon was faaantastic! My friends and I dressed up from Toradora! I didn't really cosplay much. Just spend the entire weekend socializing and water parking. :)

This has been a pretty laid back summer for me. I've been taking a break from cosplay to just... sleep more than I should. Haha! It's time to get working though. Youmacon is coming up!

I won't be at Otakon... I have a wedding I cannot miss! :) Have fun for me, everyone!

HOPEFULLY, I'll have both Asami and Godoka for Youmacon. :) I'll also be bringing Taiga and Garnet. Too many costumes. x.x I think this may be the last time I wear Garnet for awhile... Kinda tired of wearing it... I do like being a princess though. :3

Annnd some self promotion~

This was my first time on the west coast, and oh my gosh! I had so much fun. :) I really want to make it back out there for another con, or heck, just visiting friends. I wore Garnet and a new costume: Zelda from Skyward Sword! Sadly, the costume didn't turn out the way I had hoped it would... I might try remaking it in this one week before Colossal, but those chances are slim. It'll definitely have some upgrades over the summer though.

I was sick during the entire trip, sadly. :( I spent one entire day sleeping (not a con day) so I could feel better during most of the trip.

Here's a brief con summary!

At 4am, John, Amanda, Ackson and I left for Flint to the airport for FANIME!! The flight to Chicago was super short, and the flight to San Francisco wasn't too bad either. Seeing the Rocky Mountains from so high up was AMAZING. I really had a hard time doing much on Wednesday... When we got to Julie's apartment, I spent nearly the entire day sleeping!

Thursday, we went to San Jose. I took it easy at the hotel, though I felt MUCH better. I didn't sound like a man either... We also met our other roommates, Vince and Sasha. They're pretty awesome. :)

I wasn't feeling so great Friday... I slept a good chunk of the day away. When I did go to the con, I just went to the dealer's room at ended up sitting in front of the Arda booth, chatting with Vince and other other lovely ladies when they weren't busy with customers.

It was finally time to cosplay on Saturday! I put on Garnet and went to the con. I first went to the Final Fantasy shoot, which sadly wasn't too spectacular... I did meet a lovely Rinoa (Anna) at the shoot. ♥ So, it was worth going to. When I left, I couldn't move! Photographers everywhere! I got trapped in an area for well over an hour, jumping from photographer to photographer. It was really tiring. x.x After cosplaying, I went out to dinner with Amara and friends. :3 Sadly, the restaurant kinda... really sucked. The only good thing that came out of it was, 1. new friends and 2. half off our entire bill. :D We had a bathroom party and hung out in the convention center.

I revealed my surprise cosplay on Sunday! I never thought I'd cosplay Zelda, but I did! I finally found an outfit I liked. I was late to the Zelda shoot, but got some photos with an Epona and Link's Crimson Loftwing. :3 That made the day sooo much better!! I really want to redo the entire costume now... I am not happy with it at all... Mainly the dress, now that I think about it... Amanda wore Garnet and looked super pretty! :3 We jumped from hotel to hotel, looking for people to hang out with. For some, it was a success! :) I ended up going to bed after Amara's shuttle left.

Usually on the last day of the con, we're scrambling to get everything together and head home. Not this con! Monday was spent hanging around the con center! I chatting with Kara and some of her friends for awhile before they had to go. Everyone in the room spent most of the time just relaxing in the hotel.  We all had everything packed up and ready to go back to Oakland the next day.

It was a long train ride back to Julie's apartment. We rested a bit, then went to Japan Town in San Francisco. Amara and I went to Pikapika to do some Purikura, which was super fun!! :3 Ackson, Amanda, John, Julie and I ate sushi then went back to the apartment. Wednesday was spent flying back home. It kinda sucked to lose an entire day, but we made home safely!

PROS:
-California. Seriously.
-Safeway is AMAZING. Not to mention cheap alcohol.
-The level of cosplay.
-The amount of pictures I had taken in Garnet. I couldn't move!
-Making new friends!
-Bathroom party~
-New sunglasses, from a hobo
-Seeing friends from the midwest

CONS:
-The weather. I didn't know how cold it'd be
-The construction! D: I knew it'd be there, but it was a bigger area than I had imagined.
-The amount of pictures I had taken in Garnet. I couldn't move!
-Being sick in general
-Not knowing many people at the con.
-Mosaic
-The walk to Jack in the Box at night
-Not going to the rave, even though it was supposedly horrible
