Cosfest 2009: of a too angry Kakipii and an overly seme Canada.
Dude, no pikture posting because I'm at work- but please to be seeing all the words down below the cut because I'm on auto pilot mode today.
FIRST THINGS FIRST:
CONGRATS astellecia and sansele for making it into WCS!
Have great funtiems thereeeeeee *A*
Secondly on a slightly related basis: HAPPY BIRTHDAY suki_luna! I'm sorry I konked out at the chalet after the event from over-sweating due to the heat of the costume... T______T
And to all the other contestants who worked just as hard and took part in the competition:
ringo_031 & midori_rish I nearly cried when I saw the dress, completed, with the beadings. I'm normally not emotional like that but I really did get teary when I saw all 4 of you on stage (I think lack of sleep played a factor too?? LOL) because I was there as much as I can seeing you guys being depressed about not being able to finish hand sewing the beads, the gown and everything.
Sweatshop workers FTW. Sorry I didn't help as much as I could. midori_rish was the epicness because THIS CRAZY WOMAN BROUGHT A SEWING MACHINE TO THE CHALET. And broke down at the machine at 3am. I'm sorry I'm kinda useless at those times. :/
But look, you have completed the dream cos-team you've always wanted! And my promise to be Mikako stands becuz you are mai BFF. :)
raydance and ivoryfox, Air Gear = win. I got to watch your second performance and I assure you, the dancing was impactful. And actually when we were backstage and you guys demo-ed the tearing of the outfit?? I loved it!! T___T Well thought out and actually the fact that some parts of the dress had the RIPPED effect was awesomesauce. I'll send the photos to you since midori_rish is going to be KOed for the rest of the week, lol XD
*shifts around* And actually, I sekirtly fangirled the Canadas I saw on Day01 (in photos only CRAIS T___T) and Day02's Canada who called me Twinnie T______T The fact that singaporean cosplayers kind of no longer have fun with people cosplaying the same character made me zetsubou but but ahhhhh I like the Hetalia cosplayers muchly!! ;____; *snuggle snuggle* Thank you for being a kinder community.
I think I'll learn to erh, open up more and approach people without fearing anything. >_< Kinda hard for me.
Chalet was fun! I slept an average of 3hours per night from Friday onwards- a steady decrease of 1hour from my routine since end of June. LOL A lot of cracked out moments although I think we bored kimi_gin a little.. T__T Sorry girl. Our crack is hard to understand... I don't even get what I'm laughing at sometimes.
I got home and showed my mom the photos, and the first thing she said was:
"Well, was the starving worth it? Now that you're slimmer you like the photos right?"
YES MOMMY. I WILL KEEP WORKING HARD TO BECOME A NOODLE STRAND SO I CAN DO YOU PROUD AND MAKE A HUGEASS SAKURA COSTUME BECAUSE YOU LIKE THE SERIES. *flails* Not looking possible right now can??
........HOW, I KINDA LOST MY ENERGY TO FINISH LJING THE ENTIRE COSFEST.
LET'S JUST SAY THAT Hetalia tiems are win, Kokuyo3 really appeared only during the evening just like the chapter "Boys from the neighbouring town" and I'm just really happy that I did not PHAIL as a cosplayer. I kinda like what I did.... but I'll keep improving. *A*
OH AND:
TO PEOPLE AT THE CHALET ROOM2311: please let me know if you have found a makeup brush from INOUVI- rei is missing it and it's really important. I found a nivea deodrant- does it belong to anyone on my FL who was at the chalet? Let me know!
