Mood: Bathroom needs........ BUT POSTING, FIRST!
HEYOOO. I mentioned already, but I went to Katsucon 2015 this past weekend! :D It was lots of fun to hang out with my family and stare at everyone's beautiful cosplays. I didn't have time to make a costume for myself, but my sister whipped together a cosplay of Mikorin from Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun for me with the power of Forever 21, Amazon, embroidery, and old clothes. HERE'S SOME PHOTOS OF ME, IF YOU WANT TO SEE MY COSPLAY...!!!
This is a photo my sis took of me before we went to the convention. Trying really hard to look extremely cool............
This was like my go-to pose for the day. :^D

I went with these cool kids to Katsucon. That's my older sister on the left as Cordelia from Fire Emblem, and her boyfriend on the right as Trunks. My sister basically made all of our costumes, so she was pretty much the ~*~cosplay goddess~*~ this time around. (...as she normally is, actually, haha. xD;)
Halfway through Saturday, my sis dressed as Kashima from GSNK, so we ~*~matched~*~! That was fun, haha. :^D Not a lot of people recognized our cosplay, but we got a bit more recognition together than with me just being Mikorin all on his lonesome. xD
Facebook image URLs are freakishly long. ANYWAY, we ran into this super cute Kashima and Hori duo. so we took some pictures of them! :D Here's Mikorin being surrounded by beautiful Kashimas. And also Hori.
These next couple pictures were taken by my little sister! here's her flickr page, with other cool photos from Katsucon and just other stuff. :^DDD
I was trying really hard to ~*~woo~*~ the camera, the way that Mikorin does. It turns out making facial expressions is actually pretty difficult, and also embarrassing. xD I remember my little sis took a couple pictures of me getting embarrassed (which would also be rather Mikorin-like...), but she hasn't posted any of those. :m
Yah. It was really cold and kind of windy, why am I so gleefully smiling.
(I'm just kidding, taking pictures was actually pretty fun, haha.)
SO YEAH, that's what I wore to Katsucon. I liked how easy this was to walk around in, haha. I also like the red wig, because I MIGHT USE IT FOR A ROY COSPLAY EVENTUALLY.........
I kind of wish I knew I'd be getting a red wig, so I could have worked on a Roy cosplay for Otakon. I started a Virion cosplay during winter break, so that's probably what I'll be wearing for Otakon in the summer. BTW, IF ANYONE'S GOING TO OTAKON, let me know!!! *U*b Idk theO's kind of inactive and stuff these days, but MAYBE... SOMEONE IS AN EAST COASTER LIKE ME WHO GOES TO CONS... ;U;
I actually stopped by Yummy Suika (and friends') artist alley booth at Katsu, which was surprising. I don't usually see a name I recognize from theO at a convention. xD The artist alley was just really nice this year, though! :O The art direction seemed to be going away from heavily populated with sparkly anime toward this more cartoon-anime fusion. (Not that there's anything wrong with the sparkly anime style. It was just nice to see a bit more variety! *u*b) I bought a couple keychains and some prints for my friends and me. I WISH I BROUGHT MORE MONEY, THOUGH, THERE WERE SO MANY PRINTS I WANTED TO BUY.... BUBHBHBH. ;0;/ I need a job, haha;;;;;;;;
Speaking of artist alleys and ~*~jobs~*~, I'm thinking I want to try to apply for Nekocon, which is held in November. I think artist alley applications start in May, so I'm going to try to get some good stuff done for that. >:O The only issues are that Nekocon requires at least 50% original art (rather than fan art), and also I don't have anyone to share the table with. The original art thing isn't too big a deal because I like drawing original stuff, I just worry about whether or not people will want to buy original stuff. orz BUT MAINLY, I need someone to table with, hoo hahh hhahhhh..... maybe I'll find someone in my school's anime club who likes to draw. I'm pretty sure the anime club goes to Nekocon every year....
IF ANYONE HERE ON THE INTERNET WOULD LIKE TO TABLE WITH ME AND SPLIT THE $75 PRICE, PLEASE... LET ME KNOW... I don't even know if I'm going to apply and get accepted, idk why I'm even worrying about this right now.
BUT UM. Yeah, that's just stuff that's happened and I've been thinking about. HAVE A BEAUTIFUL WEEKEND, MY FRIENDS! :D
