Why do I do this to myself again?

I've been working on Haruhi all day..... I think I'm a masochist or something. Why did I decide it was a good idea to make a costume 2 days before a con?

It's coming along alright, the biggest issue is that the blue fabric continually dyes too light, even though I went out and bought two more packs of dye today. I've made the skirt and I'm going to

I think it looks cute so far. ^^

I'll be at NYAF too, I hope I run into you. I'm mostly going to Amanofag, though. x.x Do you know how much non preregistered badges are by any chance? The site likes to be hilariously vague.

And I HATE wisdom teeth, I'm dreading the day they need to be pulled. x.x I can't even floss them either, I just Listerine like crazy. D:

I found it it now on the site, never mind. XD

Looks cute so far. Gah! I'm jealous of your ability to wear high waisted clothes!

Btw, isn't it funny three contestants all asked you if you'd like their badge? Pretty amusing on my end.

Really? @_@ I think high-waisted stuff looks silly on me because I'm so short. And I always mess up making regular pleated skirts because I never take my hips into account and the pleats don't fold. T-T Rahh.

But yeah! I was so surprised about the badges! *-* I was happy one person offered, I feel so loved right now. :3

Because you're a cosplayer lol. Ask any cosplayers and they'll tell you all about masochistic cosplay build schedule.

Looks cool so far though.

Duuuude synthetic blend fabrics will just stop taking dye at a certain point. If the mix is 50% cotton, you can only ever achieve 50% of the color. I know it sucks ;_; But you look really cute!

SUPPOSEDLY it's 100% cotton. Maybe it has a treatment or something, I dunno. ANYHOW. I WILL BE SEEING YOU SHORTLY! :D
