Progress for Yuanji has kicked into high gear — I just bought all my materials last night and have been sewing like crazy to finish by Sunday ahhhh!!! Here’re some shots I took of the wig! The base is actually a (fairly innacurate) wig for a Love Live! character, but the color and length just […]
Just a quick post. This year I dressed up as Kiki from Studio Ghibli’s Kiki’s Delivery Service. 🙂 It’s one of my favorite Ghibli movies (which I guess isn’t saying much, because they’re all my favorite to some degree….) Sorry for the grainy photos, I didn’t have time to take them with my DSLR ahhh! […]
It’s been a week since PAX and the whirlwind of beasting out cosplays under a ridiculous time crunch has finally ended hahaha. I think we’ve both been catching up on much-needed sleep, or as much as we’re able with finals coming up next week…. Here’s a full-body shot I took of Ai’s aaaaaalmost-finished Lightning costume! […]
So since Thursday I have been beasting out the cosplays that Ai and I are going to wear on Saturday of PAX Prime 2013 here in Seattle. We could only grab a one-day pass, but we’ve had FFXIII-2 planned for quite a while. Since we’re both full-time students in our junior year though, summer quarter […]
After my business trip, my summer break (only 3 weeks!) was spent working on my costumes for AX. I bought Animal Crossing about half-way through, so it was probably the most relaxing break ever hahaha. There were a lot of hiccups with my taobao group order (it was delivered to me the day before I […]
Photo by Sheena Duquette So Sakuracon 2013 has been affectionately Christened “Swimming Anime con” by all of us. It was a last-minute, just-for-fun plan that ended up being really popular!!! hahaha! Since it was so last minute, some of us didn’t have proper wigs but we just rolled with it anyways, and had a ton of […]
DAY 0 As per usual on early flights (I only seem to ever book 6AM flights….), I couldn’t sleep beforehand so I pulled an all-nighter and spent the whole flight dozing in and out of consciousness. Once I got to the airport, Julia and Mike happened to be moving into their new house the same […]
For the first time ever, rather than flying down — we organized a road trip to AX!! In total it was about a 22hr drive, with less than a handful of pitstops! DAY 0 We woke up around 8AM or so and headed out on our super-long journey! I fell asleep right away and somehow […]
Hello!!! Updating my AX con report from my family’s home in Cali. What a crazy con!! hahaha. This was the first time Chong flew with me alone, so it was very exciting for the both of us. 🙂 DAY 0 Caesar salad and clam chowder! Yummmm. *q* We got to our gate, ready to get […]
Sakuracon this year was such a blast! I not only finished one of my dream cosplays, but I got to spend it with my wonderful friends the whole entire time ;w; gahhh so much love for these guys. This year none of us could afford hoteling, so my classmate Seth invited us to stay at his […]
