July 17, 2009 - I’m all up in your airwaves.

Wow, so I thought I’d be chilling the rest of the summer. But surprise! I’ll be taking a trip to Japan at the end of the month to be on TV! The show is called CosCos PurePure and is on Fuji TV, a major network in Japan. Obviously, it’s a show about cosplay. And I’m also psyched that my friend Julia is going to be coming with me! They’ve chosen for me to wear my Ranka costume. While I’m not looking forward to having to bind my boobs down again (LOL!), I’m super excited about going. I hope I don’t make too big a fool of myself (ok, that’s a lie, I love making a fool of myself).

Also, if you aren’t already, be sure to follow me on Twitter. I found a couple of extra prints of my Ayanami Rei and Penelo costume shots laying around, and thought I’d give them a good home. So I’m running a little tweet contest. Also check out my Facebook page if you haven’t yet.

And in other awesome news, The Twilight Sad is playing in LA in September. They are one of my favorite bands. If you haven’t heard them, please have a listen. They are just as good if not better live, and I’m so psyched to be seeing them again!

I’m hoping this Japan trip doesn’t muck up my Dragon*con costume plans too much, but I think I can manage. I’ll just be working extra hard! I’ll be in LA next weekend to sweep through the fabric district and hopefully find the fabric I’m searching for. Oh cosplay, how you eat my time and money, but I love it anyway.

July 06, 2009 - Is you is or is you ain’t my baby.

The rest of the Ovelia photos from Kyle are up here.

Wow! Now it’s time to start on Dragon*con costumes! French dresses, orange jumpsuits, and shiny roller skates! I hope I can get everything done on a decent budget. Luckily two of them are already started. Oh, and maybe I’ll finish that Ulala costume I started, too.

Julia and Dorian are leaving tomorrow, so it’s back to the usual. I will miss them! But I’ll probably get more work done without them here.

And here’s a funny photo from Germany. I’m such a weirdo!

I think I managed to be at the convention for 2 whole hours! I’m so not used to being in costume at conventions anymore. I hate wearing heels and make-up. Bleh! Here’s a few photos from the weekend. That was pretty much what happened. I’m glad I got to hang out with my favorite twinnies and have some awesome fun. I miss LA already. Also thank you to Julia who made me a costume while I was on my trip. I hope you enjoyed turning my nob. And as always thank you to Kyle, especially for the fantastic Cosplay.com dinner. So fun and delicious!

July 03, 2009 - Zeros

Hey! I’m here in LA. Julia just told me that she heard someone got the tattoo that I have on my wrist. That’s so awesome! I wanna see pictures! You know I actually saw someone with the 00’s on their chest once. Oh, here it is!LOL! OK, heading to the Cosplay.com dinner. Later dudes!

July 01, 2009 - Time out, AX!

Ok, so I put the page up for Ovelia, even though Kyle is holding the rest of the photos for ransom (or has better things to do like work). So I’ll have them next week.

This weekend is AX! And while I thought I would be free from cosplay, my pal Julia is coming with us and insisted on making me a costume to wear with her since I was too busy being out of the country. So how could I say no? This weekend should be super fun with lots of my friends all being in town at the same time. In the immortal words of Andrew WK, “when it’s time to party we will party hard.”
