Okay, so since AX has announced that they're gonna hav a Gundam 00 cosplay contest, Whitelilacs and I decided to have a little photoshoot. At first, we've tried to gather up fellow G00 cosplayers but we weren't able to contact them. And since we didn't have much time till the deadline (which was yesterday), we had decided to have rather an individual photoshoot than group. (It could've been awesome if we gathered all the meisters :P)

Whitelilacs wore Setsuna's 2nd season costume and I wore Tieria's. My roomie Hatsumichan helped with taking pics. And here they are!

   

Wish I could've prepared gloves but didn't get a chance to work on it D:
Also, we've searched for the places to take a pics but it was very hard to look up for the place since the photoshoot had to be happened in weekdays and the only place we could've think of were either our school or my apartment. Still I like some of the pics that I've got and hopefully I can have some more @ AX or future cons.

Anyways, I've entered the contest @ ACP and hopefully I can get a good result. It seemed like everyone did a wonderful job! XDDD
Also uploaded old cosplay pics on ACP (http://www.acparadise.com/acp) if you guys want to check it out :P


Now, one week before AX starts...still don't have any plan for cosplay D:
It might be hard for me to wear other costumes except Tieria but still I'll work on the projects I've started.
So far I have:

* Rayne (Neo Angelique) : HOPEFULLY I can finish'em up in 2009 so that I can join Whitelilacs' NeoAnge gathering :D
* Ciel Phantomhive (Kuroshitsuji) : Already have a costume, need to fix specific details..AND looking for Sebastian XDD;;
* OnoD / Ono Daisuke (Dear Girl~Stories~ Hibiki) : Actually I was thinking about doing HiroC first, but later I realized I might look more like OnoD lol. Since I ordered a T-shirts of DGS Hibiki from Gokumew, I might be able to work on it faster than I planned :D

Man, I'm totally lost...I thought today was Monday, so i woke up at 8 and prepared for my 9am class. But it seems like its TUESDAY HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Yeah...so I wore make-up and worked on some stuff before I go to my 11am class =___________=.

Had a sleep-over at my apartment w/ C.C.chan and Jarned-nesan last Friday. And then went to the Fashion District the next day. Gretchen and Emily joined to get their own materials too. It was great to see Emily again after ALA (can't wait to see your Alle! XDD) and I was soooo happy with the Kuroshitsuji stuff, thanks Emily!! <3 Also, got the chance to talk with Gretchen more. I've been seeing her at the club and EVEN slept at the same bed at ALA but didn't actually get the chance to talk w/ her XD;;; C.C.chan and Jarned-nesan, same as always. LUV YAH GUYS ALL~<33333

Anyways, gotta set up the plan for NeoAnge and Jack's Ian soon. (otherwise, another procrastination will take place 8D;;;;;)

Since my class ended earlier today, I had some extra time to watch some of the new season raws.
So far, I've watched Maria Holic, Minami-ke 3rd season, and Zoku-Natsume Yuujinchou <3
(also spend some time watching old pastel collection event DVDs, I <3 DARKNESS QUEEN HIROSHI!!!!!!!!!!)




Maria Holic (まりあ†ほりっく)
- To tell you the truth, I'm not a big fan of this kind of anime. The only reason I tried to watch this one was because SHAFT participated the creation of this and the casting was EXACTLY same as Zetsubou-sensei (and Pani poni) In terms of whole gag and sakuga, SHAFT didn't disappionted me as always (love your work, guys!) Hope this anime also have some brilliant gags like Zetsubou and Pani poni. AND ALSO HOPE HIROSHI WILL BE CASTED TOO. I mean, it's SHAFT after all.




Minami-ke ~Okaeri~ 3rd Season (みなみけ ∼おかえり∼)
- M.I.N.A.M.I.K.E! LET'S GO! three sisters are back!!! AND SO IS HOSAKA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HURAAAYYYYYYYYYS;FLKAJLKSJV;ABJ
OMG, I never thought I'll be able to listen to OnoD acting Hosaka but here we are! Soooooooo happy to see him again! He looked so awesome in the opening. I was kinda waiting for Hosaka to come out during the A&B part but he didn't.  Half depressed, and wanted to turn off the movie and start watching Natsume. But since I wanted to make sure another Minami was by Mizuki Nana-sama, I checked the staff roll and THERE WAS HIS NAME! *hearts pounding* So I didn't turn if off, waiting.........and finally!! Hosaka in C part! he took 108 おみくじ for the new year and all of'em were 大凶 LOLLLLLLLL. GOD I LOVE YOU MAN.
あ、でも オノD！気持ち悪いとは言わないから心配しないで！！！(でもCKは言わせてもらいますｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗ）


AND HERE COMES MY LOVE...



Zoku・Natsume Yuujinchou（続・夏目友人長）
- YEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
*pause for 30 seconds*
YEEEEESSSSSSS Natsume is back! One of the reason why I've been waiting this season!
Natsume was still pretty and Nyanko sensei was sooooo cute and funny, as always XDDDD <333333
<3 Opening and Ending. Especially opening made me scream when they showed what Natsume sees w/ his own eyes. I felt like as if I became Natsume for 10 secs and it just made me think what he's been through. OMG.



This ep was about Kuro-Nyanko sensei. Since it didn't say a word in both manga and anime, there was no cast lol. But Kuro-Nyanko was soooo adorable and made me to think about making plushes of him (of course, white one, too :D) I heard that this LaLa's ZenPure was Kuro-Nyanko something...can't remember...but anyways! XD;;;



Yeah...InoPapa's Nyanko sensei is perfect, I mean...PERFECT.
And I don't have to tell you, Of course HiroC's Natsume is sooooooo adorable, cute, kind, pretty, and SHINING!!!! Everytime when I watch Natsume Yuujinchou, I just feel like I'm reading a pretty, short storybook. Each episode just makes me relaxed and calmed. Now I feel like I need to take a hot bath and drink a hot tea lolol.

This guy I just forgot his name, was done by Matsukaze Masaya. Well, I heard about the casting of this ep since I listened to the last broadcast of Radio Natsume Yuujinchou. HiroC and InoPapa was talking about several important points about this season's Natsume as well as casting. They also said that there'll be a original story which will be on-aired thru two weeks AND the guest voice actor for those episode is someone who always makes the character きもちわるい. Well, guys, WHAT CAN WE SAY LOLOL. It seems like our "D" who really REALLY wanted to join the Natsume team was ACTUALLY able to see HiroC at AfuReco lolololol. Can't wait to see that episode now!! COME ALONG HiroC & OnoD !!!!!!!!!! <333333
(BTW,  next week's episode is about two statue & snow rabbit whose voice will be done by Yotchin! Allelujah!!! XDDD)


* I'm looking forward to see other new season animes as well, hope I can have some time to watch those this week. It seems like I mostly have my free time on Monday & Friday (hopely weekend, too)

* These plans are mostly for Fanime 09 and AX 2009. But I'm not sure about AX this year since I'll be working as a staff during the con.
I don't think they'll allow me to cosplay while I'm working with our precious Guest of Honor.
Anyways, here's the plan~<3





Rayne / Neo Angelique
 - I don't know the spell is right since I've only watched/played them in Japanese. It's one of the Neoromance game from Koei (Harukanaru tokino nakade and La Corda D'oro are on the same team) I'm thinking about doing Hyuga just because his voice is OnoD *giggle*. But I also wanna do Rain and Angelique since I like their outfit. Oh well, I just LOVE this series and can't stop my love XD I have two anime club-nakama who'll do Nyx and Ange and I think Jarned-nesan also wants to participate so maybe we can form the whole Aube hunter 4 + Ange! XDDD
Yup, plan changed. It seems like I'll be doing Rayne and many people are interested about this group! hurray~<3




Ciel Phantomhive / Kuroshitsuji(Black Butler)
 - I JUST LOVE THIS CHARACTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Of course I LOVE Sebastian too. I wish I can do Sebastian but since I'm unfit to do him, if anyone's willing to be my black butler, I'd glad to be your master, muhwahwahwa >8D (well, one of my little dream for 2009 is actually make a bf and FORCE him to be my butler lolol)




Itoshiki Nozomu / Sayonara Zetsubou sensei
   - I've been thinking about doing this character since he's one of my favorite (after all, it's my HiroC's character!!!!!! XDDDDDDDDDDDD) wish I can find more people who's willing to do zetsubou shoujyo. or maybe kudo-kun or usui-kun (ikku-san? lolol)


* I'm also thinking about doing these characters so if anyone's interested making a group, POKE ME!! and don't worry, I'm not gonna bite you, heheXD;;;
  - Saotome Alto / Macross Frontier
  - Makabe Tsubasa (or Kusanagi Hajime) / Vitamin X
  - Konoe / Lamento
  - Akira (or Shiki) / Togainu no Chi

 

Well, I know it's my very first official(?) post in LJ, but I couldn't think of anything to write about. I'm really bad w/ this journal thing 8D;;;;;;
Also, I have to admit and you guys know, MY ENGLISH SUCKS AND I REALLY SUCK AT WRITING. so please bear with me ;___;

I don't think I'll be posting lots of things but still, this journal's gonna be my little English diary Xd <3
Let's see....


- Right after my school's final, I prepared Tieria Erde cosplay from Gundam00 during the whole winterbreak. It was the very first costume that I made and I had sooooooo much fun! (had a hard time lil bit but I'm a winner!! yay!! XD) I spend most of the time with C.C.chan as Setsuna and met fabulous Lockon, Feldt, Allelujah and marie(and they were in second season costume!) I also met several first season characters too! Surely there were bunch of Set-chan lol. Hope we can do 00 gathering and have a photoshoot at Fanime! XD <3 
(btw I should re-think about the wig. I still like the color but I want it to be more dark =S)

- I attended ALA w/ my anime club all three days. Most of them were really busy preparing Soul Eater masquerade. I didn't join them since I didn't watch the whole series. But it surely looked fun and everyone had a great time! hope I can join another cosplay project soon! =D

- Okay, It was my first time attending ALA. And let me tell you the truth (and please NO tackle). Personally, I was kinda disappointed about the whole organization and programs. I know it's a small con and I've been only attending huge cons such as AX but...iono, it seemed like I didn't attend any of the events. I actually wanted to go and see masquerade but they started the event 1 hr late and I got sick before it started so I had to stay in the room. But still, I met so many fabulous and funny people and I really enjoyed that. So the whole ALA was okay after all.


I have some pics that I took but I don't know how I should upload it on LJ so I guess I'll be posting it on cosplay.com. So if any of you guys want to check out the pics, you can just search me 'hestia88'

Argh, can't believe school starts tomorrow. でも頑張ります！
