I HAVE NO REGRETS!!! XD
I went for Cosfest VIII today! Eee, long train ride down to Pasir Ris, but it was totally worth it cos I bought lots of Hetalia Russia stuff and got to see Jenn at her booth too!

Yes, Hetalia has taken over my life, I DIE WITH NO REGRETS!!! XD I am beyond psyched lah, especially since Liz and I went for the Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto Extravaganza concert last night, I AM SO GLAD I WENT FOR IT. I hardly ever go to concerts and this was my first time sitting so close to the orchestra (we were in the fifth row from the front), it was damn excite :D Then when the conductor came on stage, Liz and I simultaneously went, “SO CUTE!!” HAHAHA XD Cos he was this young Polish guy called Krzysztof Urbański and he had this really cute boyish face and slightly spiky hair, and all through the concert he was SUPER ANIMATED. So okay, conductors are supposed to wave their hands around madly and all, but this guy has the most WIN facial expressions ever. Like when the orchestra was playing “In the Hall of the Mountain King” from Peer Gynt, when it came to the menacing part, he turned to the musicians and made this GRR I AM A TROLL face and I almost died trying not to laugh out loud XD Too adorable, hahaha! He is the cutest conductor ever, I swear. Oh and the pianist, Stephen Hough! Even though our seats were on the right so we couldn’t get a clear look at his hands, I could see them reflected in the piano cover and I was like HIS FINGERS WHERE ARE HIS FINGERS D8 Like LIGHTNING leh! And he was super animated too haha, he literally jumped off his seat at the exciting piano parts and he really looked like he was enjoying himself. I’m a concert and music noob but seriously, that concert was some of the best shit ever. Also, Russian classical music is totally for the sexy win :D
So after a night of excite, I had a day of excite at Cosfest with Liz and Rox, hurrah! Haha, highlight of my day would have to be playing Jenn’s addictive Hetalia card game at her booth, JENN WHAT HAVE YOU DONE, HAHA. I won the prints because I could finish matching all 40 cards in less than 1 min 30 sec, I still remember my individual record is 1 min 23 sec, hahaha! I teamed up with Silk’s friend (who I only know as The Austria Girl, lol) and we got a timing of 58 sec. Must be Prussia beaming his awesomeness to us >8D Tomorrow I’m going again with Rachel and Meranda, so I shall drop by and see if I can beat my own record, lol :P And if I see a Russia cosplayer, I swear I will scream.
