Whew! This weekend was indubitably the best weekend of my cosplay years so far! Wonderful times were had with a bunch of fellow cosplayers and equally wonderful photographers. This time, I brought my new Titania Asuna cosplay and my Inori dress; also brought my Kirito cosplay for Slightlysalted. The location was breathtakingly beautiful; the ruins of the once girl's school was simply perfect for all of the costumes that everyone brought. Here are two pictures, one of the photographers and one of the cosplayers at this event, both pictures are taken by Fiery Fotography 
I spent the night from friday to saturday at Slightlysalted's home, we also worked on her Sakizo Homme Opal cosplay from 10 to 12 the night before retiring to bed. ~___~; Honestly we finished it earlier than expected so shouldn't be complaining xDD much fun with chest binding.
The following morning, Slightlysalted and I started out our day at 7:00 am, did our makeup, and packed for the shoot. Arrived nearing 9:00 and got packed into a car to go up the hill to the Patapsco Girl's Institute ruins. Once there everyone changed into costumes, signed in, conversed and got started. Slightlysalted wore her newly finished Homme Opal and I wore Inori.
First I shot with my friend Helen and her crew. After that, Jade Smile photography kidnapped me and after her, Dancing Squirrel, John T. Nelson, and Yenra took me under their wing. I got to meet and chat with Melvinopolis Cosplay and several other cosplayers that I admire. Around 12:30 I underdressed and got into Asuna while Slightlysalted wore Kirito. We were immediately stolen by Jade Smile for photos of our HUSBANDO and WAIFU costumes xD
We shot for a very very long time in Asuna and Kirito and the shoot ended at 3:45. Our last photo was a group shot by Fiery Fotography. We ended the day by chilling in Ellicott City's historical district and shopping at Matcha Cafe where I had a wonderful conversation in Japanese with the owner of the store. :3 All in all, a fun experience.
Hopefully I'll get more pictures back soon and new year, I shall see some of my deviantart friends there

Cosplay Headcount
Hello fellow deviants,
It has been an AWFUL long time since I last wrote, but I guess that's normal seeing as DA has taken a backseat in favour of Facebook, Cospix, ACP, and WorldCosplay. It has occurred me that I've almost had this deviantart account as long as I've been cosplaying so out of curiousity I crunched some numbers today on how many costumes I've done since I've started cosplaying in 2007 and came up with these:
2007 - total 1
1. Tomoe Hotaru (school uniform) - BISHOUJO SENSHI SAILOR MOON - Otakon
2008 - total 6
2. Amane Misa (casual vers 1) DEATH NOTE - Otakon
3. Amane Misa (casual vers 2) - DEATH NOTE - Otakon
4. Freya (purpl

Whew, I haven't been on Deviantart in awhile... I suppose that's normal, a lot of deviants are no longer active :<
This winter break I cranked out two huge costumes, So-Ah and Mui from Bride of the Water God for my boyfriend and I before going on vacation. I finally went to Japan, it was a lovely lovely city, I don't even have the words to express how much I like the city. We lived in a small hostel right behind Sensouji, possibly busiest shrine in Tokyo @__@ we went during new years, badddd idea. xD But I did get to spend a quality amount of time with my male best friend Hugh who studied abroad in Japan fora bout a year and Michi, a new

Honestly speaking, this was probably the most amazing convention experience I've ever had aside from the fact I caught a minor head cold. It was the perfect con, save for some very small incidences, the biggest being that my pink thigh highs for Tsukumo were ruined before I even wore them OTL
Breakdown:
THURSDAY
Arrived at the convention around 8 after a long ride with ~AllenGale (https://www.deviantart.com/allengale) and moved into the room with the help of my roommates and boyfriend. I had more luggage than usual this time, especially with the 3D gear in tow @___@ In total, 6 different pieces, 1 huge clothing bag, my hello kitty bag (
Racism and Cosplay
Today I was browsing through facebook, just scrolling through my feed. Naturally, I can upon a site I've 'liked' and I saw a new cute profile picture. I clicked in to check out the page to see if there were any fun updates. The photos popped up first. Among the cute cosplay photos I saw one that looked very familiar. It was a photo of one of my cosplay friends who I've known for awhile. She is african american. You can tell where that leads.
The poster was an administrator of the page, she wrote:
"I dont want to say that this cosplayer is ugly .. But i just wanna hear your opinion about this picture."
BOOM. Right there she already stated
