wow i totally haven't updated this in forever. well i suppose i'll start with what i'm up to... last night i went to the valentine's day dance up at ubc. it was fun. i crossplayed and went as velvet mafica kaito from vocaloid. it was so comfy. i will admit it's not the most complicated cosplay i'ver ever done. black pants, black button uo shirt, black gloves, blue wig. DONE! oh snap. but it worked, and i made a very attractive man, even if i had like these crazy eye brows.

i know, craaaazy. i hung out with plenty of people i haven't seen in a bit, and also some i have seen. i'm just happy i got my last minute cosplay done in time. after the dance, jaimmie, david, betty, alex and i all went to red robins and had dinner. i was starving, and it was fun times. i'm sure we were the highlight of our server's day. as soon as david, alex and i got there they knew who we were there to meet. i guess if a bunch of people in wigs wander in, you should assume they know each other.

so something else on my mind is sakuracon. i was kinda disappointed i wasn't going to be able to do angemon, but as most people know i had to drop that because the supplies were just taking way too long to ship in. i wouldn't have had enough time to build the wings or the armor. so i told izzy we'd do it for sc next year. since we already had our cos for akicon planned. luckily i have a couple backups i've never worn to a con. mainly my psylocke and green lantern. i know they're not anime or whatever, but i'm not too concerned. i was kinda bummed at first, but i'm feeling a lot better about it all now. now i'm just crossing my fingers my wig for my green lantern arrives in time. jaimmie was awesome and gave me her gl ring she had for my costume, since i was an idiot and forgot to order one.
only problem is it's super big and made for man fingers... but i guess it'll be okay since i have to wear it over top gloves anyway.

this also marks the first time izzy will be going with me to seattle. this is super exciting for me. i've been wanting her to come for THREE YEARS! but everytime there was always something that came up with her. or she wouldn't be able to get the time off. so i'm super happy! they also have some really cool bands this year, so A+ sakcon :3

i updated my youtube with another slideshow. this one from the kuroshitsuji shoot that happened jan. 1st. i promise i'll update with an actual video log soon XD


david talked to sara, one of the girls that organizes the L&&C meetups here. she says the next L&&C will probably be in may. last night i had a wonderous idea and decided to finally get a soubi cosplay together. he's like one of my favorite characters of all time, and i adore loveless so much. i think it just makes sense. besides i've been wanting to do a soubi cosplay for forever, and i think i finally have the skills now to make it happen...
updated the groove list, and my theme for v-day♥

hey babies! haven't updated in awhile. i don't really have much to say really... only that the day after new years i went to a photoshoot at UBC with John. Met Jen, Chris and Jon there. then met up with Mitchal, Jim, Hazel, Sherry, Sarah and Tori when they arrived finally. It wasn't a bad time. Jen, myself, Sherry and Mitchal were th eonly ones in costume, and John, Jon, Chris and Tori were the only ones taking photos so i'm kind of unsure why all the others were there too. but whatever. i was frigging so sick, i was most certainly not a pleasure to be around, but they dealt with me admirably, especially john...

it was a long, cold day. and by the end of it i couldn't feel my toes and i had to spend a nice long time in the shower defrosting :C i also felt like shit the next day, but slept most of it off. seeing the pics now i will say that i didn't look as much like shit as i thought i did. which i suppose is good.



that's a smooshed version of my favorite shot of the day. taken by john &heart;
he always manages to take amazing photos of me, when i am so unphotogenic it's almost laughable...
more can be found at my DA page here

highlights include watching the others walk and chris eventually fall through a frozen pond. making faces at jen when we were supposed to be gazing lovingly at one another. NEARLY KILLING MYSELF BECAUSE TORI WANTED SOME EPIC SHOT. seriously, i hate heights and she had me stand on an overhang like 2 stories up in that damn dress! random pedestrians watching us, and chris evil eyeing this dude trying to take secret photos of me. oh and hanging out with everyone i suppose.

after we were all done, john and i met chris, jen and jon at denny's for deliciousness since we were all frigging hungry. i was sorely disappointed to find out that the white spot like 2 meters from where we were shooting was closed... assholes. i wanted zoo sticks.

i'll have a slideshow up after i edit the shots jon took. so maybe this weekend? don't quote me though since i'm a terrible person and am always late with this shit. next shoot will prolly be the green lantern shoot when my costume's done and john and jaimme have time. i'm looking forward to it. i'll certainly be able to move around easier... updated the groove list.

so so so... SO! gawd i feel like crap. my cold's just getting worse and worse. my main concern right now, is will i look like shit on saturday? saturday being the day of the black butler photoshoot. i'm worried that i'll just look bagged :P

i've been taking my cold fx, and my medicine, trying to keep my head on straight. but my nose is running like a faucet. being really pale, if i'm sick, my nose goes super red because my skin gets irritated by the tissues. it's gross. and when you have like sickly white skin, it becomes super noticeable. especially when being shot with hd cameras. to top it all off i also now have a pimple on my nose. FUCKING HELL!

i'll be honest, i'm a huge priss when it comes to zits. i never get them usually. so when the odd one pops up it becomes super noticeable to me, even if other people don't see it. said people them proceed to beat my ass for bitching so much about one zit when their face is covered in acne. i'm sorry, i never went through that odd, bad skin phase of being a teenager. i don't know how to deal with this shit.

wow this whole post is sounding really conceited. lol XD
but anyway, part of my worry is because the last photoshoot i did turned out so awesome. i want to continue the trend. i mean the marvel shoot with maddi, jaimme and john was just badass even if it was fairly small. this shoot is going to involve more people so i guess i'm just anxious. btw, i don't think i ever posted the cb log for the marvel shoot slideshow



there you go. before that was the vocaloid, type h shoot at akicon, which wasn't a complete disaster either. despite my dislike of some of the shots.... i just really want to look awesome for everyone who has to pose or interact with me. instead of looking like a disease infested landfill.

as if to make shit even better. it's getting really fucking cold here. boo... updated the groove list
