Time For A Bit Of Pre-Expo Magic

I can't believe that times come round again!!!!

That also means a short pre-Expo post about just who I shall be cosplaying yaaaaaaaaaaaay!

I'm going all 3 days of course <3

Friday I think I'm going as Shima again, even if I'm not I'll still have the cosplay with me >< I can't decide if I should wear Len or something since Shima's been out an about an awful lot this year~

Edit! I'm going to cosplay Len on Friday. And yes bring Shima along~ Gonna leave Shima picture there anyway :3

But just in case you forgot how I look as Shima:

Even though this picture was only in the Hyper Japan post x3
 
And here, just in case I do Len ^o^
 
A fancy close up also. Oh and look at my blog heading too! Len's there~
 
Then Saturday...I get to wear my beloved Miku cosplay again ;u;
 
Although I hacked off some length of the wig </3
 
I had to make my eyebrows all thin too. Cause you know in manga they always have thin eyebrows xc R.I.P thick straight brow look.
 
And finally, on Sunday my only new cosplay of the weekend! The forever gorgeous and best host ever...Hikaru! <3 from Ouran High School Host club ^o^
 
Went to Kydeka's the other day and we derped about in Ouran cosplay! She's being Honey. We have a group of all the hosts! I can't wait!
 
TA-AAA! The rose beautifully made by Kydeka <3 ilu
 
And another picture just so you can see her too c:
 
I can't wait for Friday to get here! YAAAAAAAAAY! So many people I wanna see/meet over the weekend ;u;
 
See you there! BAI BAI <3

Just Let Me Flip My Table

But it's bolted to the bed. 

I have reason to want to flip tables in the last two days. 

Not going well ah. 

It starts~ I had a date but right before I was about to leave I got a text and boom. No date. Damn disapoint. You have any idea how much time I spent getting ready? How much my makeup costs? -____- okay was a bit sad but now just annoyed. 

And turned into someone who curls up and tells themselves 'theyre missing out anyway'

So that was yesterday, and today - remember when I said I was starting a new job? I went there for a day, it was okay. And then today got a phone call. They didn't want me. 

I lost my job dammit! So frustrated! They didnt tell me 'oh today is a trail' or anything. I thought I had this job til Christmas. I left two jobs to start this one. 

Unbelievable. So now I have another person to be mad at. 

I could have said yes to that model scout after all. 

Then after that lovely phone call my dogs had a mini fight with each other and one of them needed stitches </3 my poor babies. I was home alone so I just tried to clean the small wound at cried and hugged. 

Their both okay now though <3

Oh me. 

Excuse me while I eat junk and day dream about expo which is less than a week away <3

Hyper Japan 2013~! ♥

So back in July was my first ever adventure to Hyper Japan! <3 I can say right off that it was completely amazing and brilliant in every way! I'd never been to a con that wasn't Expo before~

Oh before I write anymore stuff, go and read Tunkia's write up of HJ! She wrote it straight away like a good blogger should <3 (she also gave me permission to use her photos)

Part 1- Info and Cosplay
Part 2- People and Friends
Part 3- Culture and Shopping

She blogged about the event <3 I blogged about me xD seriously go and read! And all her other posts too~

Right so, the night before I stayed at Kydeka's (surprise surprise) and because we're so smart we planned to get lots of sleep but of course we kept talking so we didn't!

She cosplayed as Yukio from Blue Exorcist while I did Shima ^ ^

My camho before leaving to get the train (while Kydeka was off doing make up heheheh)
 
Once we got our expensive train tickets and got on the train, at the next stop we met Kydeka's wifey, April! I'd never met her before but omg she is so nice and totally pretty too!
 
Then we posted traveling shots from each of our phones to Facebook!
 
I think it was a brilliant idea
 
So now everybody knows, we're going to Hyper Japan!
I'm so using other peoples photos as well as my own in this post >> don't hate me ilu
 
Once we worked out how to get off the platform, we were nearly at HJ!
 
Thumbs up ready and excited :D
 
WE'RE HEERREEEE
 
Once we'd got inside I just did a whole lot of staring at stuff xD there was just so much! We kind of half looked at a lot of stalls but since we had people to meet up with, texting them was important!
 
And so, I finally met the gorgeous Tunika! (you know, I linked her blog up there?) It was so great to meet her <3 shes so nice and pretty and amazing aaahh! It's like insta-friends.
Aaaaahhh <3 <3
 
 
I just love our group picturessss;;;
 
Tunika with me and Kydeka!
 
Oh who are these two? Person on the right. So weird. Omg.
Okay can Kydeka stop looking so good in my cosplay?!
 
It was also Kydeka who knew these amazing cosplayers! Who we hung around with for the rest of the day~ Introducing Zoe and Christie!
 
And the forever fabulous Tana (who transformed into Amaimon later in the day) and Aiden!
I was pretty shy around them all oops xD
 
These two actually did the most brilliant performance as Amaimon and Mephisto to Avenue Q's 'If You Were Gay' and it was quite fantastic <3
 
Even though I'm not looking at the camera I super love this one xD
 
Okay stop! Before I go any further, I need to introduce the best and most expensive thing I got! She became my new best friend hehehehehe.
 
Introducing Haru-chan~! ^ㅅ^
She lives in my bed <3
 
<3 <3 I wanted the biggest alpaca, but she cost enough as it was xD woah
This 19 year old spends stupid money on toys. yup.
 
Can you feel the bond?
SHE IS SO CUTE.
 
Even Yukio is jealous~ Judging by Haru-chans colour she misses her mummy (me)
 
I also got a hime style necklace but omg regret because it was a total impulse buy xD now I don't know what to do with it ;;
 
Anyway, the stalls at HJ were so brilliant! There was so much fashion and accessories <3 (Japanese styles of course, which I LOVE) I wish I could have brought it all :'3 there was a lot of people dressed up in different fashions too, which was the first time i'd seen so much of it at once!
 
What I found surprising at first is that there was less cosplay more fashion. So as cosplayers we somehow stood out haha! At the start of the day it was just picture picture picture, it was fabulous~ even got pictures with this amazing cosplayer from World Cosplay!
 
I was in total awe!
 
Around lunch time we decided to grace the local town with our cosplay-tastic presence. It was pretty fun.
Yukio approves of this shop
 
COSPLAYING IN PUBLIC IS AWESOME
Oh and that's Josh ^ ^ who was also part of the 'hanging around with' group of the day!
 
I brought an ice cream <3 it was yummy
 
Oh let me just throw in this picture I like
 
I also saw Omii again! She just keeps being so pretty gaahh
 
Here's the last lot of photos with people <3
Me and Kydeka, being tired and sitting ><
 
With Tunika ^-^
 
And April who brought this super cute hat!
 
Now moving on to something else that we did at Hyper Japan, after shopping, wondering, eating, talking and show watching- we headed to a photo shoot with all the new cosplayers I met! Wooooo!
 
Now we had the most amazing photographers ever I swear I die. And they were so friendly bwaaaaaa! Huge thanks to Jei, Jonathan and then April who also got her gorgeous camera out! I WANNA SEE YOU AGAIN OKAY? OKAY
 
Oh and first heres one that I totally lovelovelove from League of Extraordinary Cosplayers! Look them up! Their photos are always totally gorgeous :'3
 
I really wanna post ALL THE PHOTOS but theres like ten thousand so I'm not going to, if you know me- check mentioned photographers Facebooks and if not...go on Zoe's tumblr! ultimatesir.tumblr.com they're all on there I believe <3
 
Loveit.
 
Not a Photo photo, but a nice photo <3
 
Haha another random one! April was testing out the focus on her camera~
 
Gorgeous group photo! We are joined by Casey as Shura and Liam as a persony kind of Kuro!
 
Shima doesn't really feel like beating up this demon, but don't worry Yukio and Bon will c:
-chicken-
 
MEE
 
I have no idea why I love this one so much
 
Mephisto and Shima are secretly best friends
 
We are very, very serious exorcists.
 
Wait did I say serious?
 
Okay yeah we are <3
I just loved all of these photos, especially the group ones! It was so wonderful ;;; and everyone was so nice and aww
 
And sadly, after the shoot it was time to go home :c /cry
 
Looking back on photos and writing this up makes me miss everyone so much D: wah. I'm so going to Hyper Japan again!
 
At the station :c
 
This is where they left me!
 
On the train, all by myself haha xD 
Zzzzz. So. Exhausted.
 
It was really a brilliant day though, it was so worth being half dead on the train hehe~ It was great to meet new people and re-see old! And now I have even more people I have to catch up with when I see them at Expo <3 <3
 
Thanks for a brilliant first Hyper Japan! 


London MCM Expo- Sunday!

Time for the last leg of Expo posts (October Expo is creeping up on me FAST)

First of all lets enjoy how god damn beautiful my friends, old and new, looked on this Sunday~

Kydeka as Ukyo again <3 Why do you look so amazing?! Ihateyou
 
A 'ohmygod the suns in our faces' picture. Wah wah :c
 
Shona as the freaking magic flying carpet! And Tasha as female Aladin <3 omg you guys!
 
Now me with Tasha ^o^
 
And with Shona~ have you noticed the pattern yet?
 
Rachel looking capital A Adorable!
 
And now US <3
 
Alice is up next *o* So cute even though I still don't remember the cosplay >>
 
While waiting to see some of Merlin cast!
 
Get 2 with Alice because we both bought kitty ears! So cute right?! <3
Dare I say nyan?!
 
This also means our shadows got cute too!
 
And finally Sezen as casual Luka! Somehow I didn't get a selfie with her wtf :c
 
So here's a picture with her I fogot to post from Saturday xD Us pretty ladies~
 
I forgot this one as well (Ignore how shiny the flash makes my wig look please thank you)
Could have just added in the Saturday post but then people wouldn't have seen!
 
Okay and now back to Sunday, and cause it was actually a nice day (can you believe it?) we went outside ^o^
 
Shona, Kydeka, Tasha. Gorgeous~
 
Kydeka unwillingly posing I believe...and Im just eating in the corner ahahaha xD
 
So while we were outside, they were playing music!
 
All those dancey songs like Cha Cha Slide and Macarena and stuff <3 it was SO MUCH FUN
 
Poor Shona could do the arm actions very well~
 
It's hard work being a carpet :c
 
But please admire this beautiful day. And view! I'm never getting over the location of Expo~
 
Oh and remember when I said that we queued to see some of Merlin cast?! Here they are!
Tom Hopper who played Percival and Alexander Vlahos who played Mordred <3 <3 <3
 
We waited for ages but let me tell you it was SO WORTH IT (prepare yourself for extreme fangirling after the next picture)
 
So it's my turn and I'm like 'Hiii I totally love you guys! You're amazing.' And they say thank you and ask who I'm cosplaying! So I tell them and they're like 'I have no idea who that is but it looks awesome' EKASJFGKLERJALRI and then I think it was Alexander who was like 'are those your real eyes?' and I said 'no I'm wearing contacts, they've got little diamond patterns in.' AND THEN THEY BOTH LEANED IN TO LOOK AT THEM. MY EYES. OH MY GOD MY HEART. Once I'd walked away I squealed, a lot. <3 <3
They made my expo I swear.
 
If you see in this camho of mine, they are the very lenses they looked at *o*
 
Okay quickly onto the few pictures of other peoples cosplays~
If you haven't seen the film Beetlejuice you NEED to. These two looked aymayzing!
 
This was the 4 colour Link's all skipping but I took the picture to late, but here they are anyway c:
 
KPP Pon Pon Pon! She was so cuuuuteee!
 
And this is actually the others friend from college (I think) Claire. As Harley Quinn.
She looked so cool! :D
 
After a long day of walking and sitting and shopping it was time to go home. Here is where I left these guys ;A; I've only seen Kydeka since
I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU SOOOOOON <3
 
Thank you for an amazing Expo Weekend ^-^ I swear it gets better every single time. The stuff I brought has been shown somewhere already, like the Popin' Cookin' and the wig I wore for it (I swear I got other stuff too but I've forgotten xD)
 
And lets just end with only my second selfie of that day. I can't wait to wear this again~
 
Good bye for now! Heres to October Expo!
