lol, so in the end, I finished the commissions on time~
8D from the Wednesday before the con until Sunday (day 3), I got 14 hours of sleep in total
it would've been so much easier if I didn't have work that week, but I felt bad since I already took so much time off from work this summer
the actual con was... boring =A=;;
but the good part was that a lot of my friends had tables in artist alley, so I hung out with them there when I wasn't out for photoshoots
as for cosplay...
I had to drop Hanakimi with Amanda cuz I had no time to sew it (ughhh... but I had *all* the materials already...)
but my schedule was...
Friday: Jilleena [Immortal Rain]; Dino [Reborn]
Saturday: Ken [Reborn]
Sunday: Matt [Digimon: Season 1]; Atobe [Prince of Tennis: Hyoutei]
lol, in the past 6 years, Jilleena was my 2nd time cosplaying as a girl XD
for Dino, my friend actually tattooed my whole left arm with Sharpies. It looked so cool, I really didn't wanna wash scrub it off that night but I had to ;____;
after the con on Saturday, I stayed over at my friend's house along with another friend... and we sweatshopped their Digimon costumes OTL
and I was stupid and forgot to bring along my blue contacts for my Digimon cos
hahaha, for Digimon, we got stopped so many times for pics since we had almost all of the characters from the first season
T____T we were too dead to sew our actual digimon though... but we'll probably make them for future photoshoots
after the Digimon meet-up/photoshoot at 12:30pm, 3 of us rushed to get changed into PoT since that meet-up was scheduled for the same time
PoT was such a last minute decision though, so I borrowed my friend's wig, Hyoutei jersey, shorts, runners, and even socks =A=;;
actually, 2 of us hadn't even decided on who should do Oshitari and Atobe.. and after my friend put on the Atobe stuff, we decided that it didn't look right so we switched at the last minute
so we had a Jirou, Oshitari, Atobe, and we found a Gakuto and dragged her to the SFU tennis courts for a photoshoot
I actually left pretty early that day cuz I was so dead... and I had to go home and change into normal clothes to go out for my sister's birthday dinner (lol, I changed back into Matt before leaving the con since it's more normal than... PoT...)
so today, a bunch of my friends went all the way to West Vancouver to visit me at work XD
hahaha, and the manager was there when they came in... but luckily, they looked normal when they came in OTL
everybody brought stuff to change into for Reborn~~~ there was Tsuna, Gokudera, Yamamoto, and Hibari and one of my friends didn't dress up
I couldn't sit around with them though cuz all these take-out orders came in and I was the only person working.. and then I had to clean everything since I was closing the store (luckily we close at 6pm on Sundays...)
so after I was done everything, I went to the washroom and changed into Dino... suit version~~
fufufufu~ and I had a Hibari to take lots of pics with 8D
we ended up going to Old Spaghetti Factory for dinner since we were dorks and wanted something somewhat Italian
I changed out of Dino in the washroom since my friend needed my measurements for something I'm getting commissioned... and even though I only bound my chest for a few hours, my ribs were making cracking sounds when I undid the bindings =A=;;
lol, even after changing, I kept on wearing the suit jacket since it was a bit chilly outside
and then my friends all said I looked like a host (I put on my black tux shirt I wore for work today)... so we ended up being gross and took pics around Gastown XD
good thing it was a Sunday night.. or else we would've scared more ppl with our gross fangirling~
[edit] I just realized.... that I was stupid... and didn't even take pics of the commissioins that I did =A=;; ugggghhhhhhhhh.........
