Anna Sui: Flight of Fancy

Hi guys~ This Is NOT an Advertorial. 
Recently, I have become obsessed with scents. I think its because of the BL manga I read while I was in China that spurred me on to get my own Perfume. Or it could just be that I decide to conform and get one like KARINSAWA HARHARHAR. Anyway, It's Anna Sui's Flight Of Fancy! 

Look at that FANCY bottle.

It Burned a whole in my wallet though QAQ 

(p.s testing out my new camera 8D my dad gave me his old olympus!)

That's the thing about Anna Sui products. You get a really beautiful and fancy product for a heartbreaking price ;w;

I have been really into photography recently. Makes me happy and keeps me calm 8D

Okay this Perfume is awesome. I got it at Sasa for $84. original price is near or more than the hundreds I think? It was my lucky day, they happened to have a discount for Anna Sui products that day so i had to get it 8D

It has a fruity and flowery scent. Its not very strong though. This is more suitable for younger people though... Many of my friends said it suited me very well 8D So, if you are weird, vertically challenged, random and like BL, THIS IS PERFECT FOR YOU. /gets slapped

Anyway, I love this perfume. Its just too pretty and it smells too good LOL.

I shall end this post here. Hope you liked the pictures!

Hi guys!╰( ^ ㅂ ^)╯
Extremely late Happy New Year to you~ I have been really lazy to blog recently OTL
But, I'm back 8D. About a week ago, i was notified by one of my deviantART followers that there is someone impersonating me and stealing my photos and calling them her own? She sent me a link to the person's profile too OAO. Apparently, she blocked me before i even found out about her OAO|| hurr she took precautions  Yea, so it was a real pain to deal with her -.-||

She stole my Alois Trancy cosplay picture and even edited a Christmas hat onto me (－‸ლ)
She pretended to be me too 8'D teaching people how to do my make-up... And you guys are probably thinking "why not report her?" Well... she blocked me so I COULDN'T EVEN ACCEPT THE REQUESTS TO REPORT HER SENT BY MY FRIENDS (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

And so, being teenagers, me and my "rebellious" friends decided to troll her. My husbando even created a new Facebook account just to troll her. She hates shoujo manga but in the profile description she put the total opposite and even acted like a total weeaboo going

"Konnichiwa~!! Neko-chan desu nya >w</ 

I like anime and manga!! Especially shoujo mangas!!! I hate yaoi though, ewww~

Nice to meet minna-san nyaaa~

~neko-chan "

OMG I DIED. So all three went on a trolling spree. aiya i lazy to type the details

Anyway, the problem resolved nicely with Impersonator kindly deactivating/deleting her account (⊙ω⊙)
So..... If you do come across any Facebook/Twitter/WorldCosplay/Cure/DeviantArt/Tumblr accounts pretending to be me, please please please tell. All my other social networking sites are listed on the side so please drop me a message OTL I will really appreciate it ໒(• ŏᴗŏ•)७
And i would also want to thank AshiotoPiko (dA) for informing me <3 Thank you for reading this 

awareness post!! 

Cosplaying For Beginners

 Well... I really hope this helps you. Really. Because, sharing is caring  too many people are coming to me to ask how to start cosplaying so from now on i will just throw this pokeball of information -take that hiya!- at them (⊙ω⊙) hurrrrrr /gets slapped/

  There are many videos on how to start cosplaying on YouTube so go look at some too 8D Cosplay is short form of "costume play". I myself personally think that effort is the most important 

when it comes to cosplaying. where is the love dude.ლ(O益Oლ) 

Plus, there is always drama on Facebook. So, it will be a wise 

decision to put in effort so people can't say anything *wink*

I also get freaked out, literally, when i see someone who doesn't 

put foundation and concealer when they have really bad skin 

/gomen/ Its like I am walking and i go, 

"ohh not bad"

Then the person turns around and I'm like

Just my personal experiences ;w;

To hell with experiences, I shall cut the crap.

People usually say the costume is the most important. But I would say LOVE is the most important. The costume part is really 

common sense. Remember this is a "how to cosplay" blogpost. 

So I am just gonna give you all the tips and tricks on how 

to start, no tutorials. So yes,

1. Love

2. Costume (+wig)

3. Make-up  

4. Feel & Posing

Easy Peasy. These are the 4 things you need to commit to. Follow this and no one should mess with you, unless you ask for it... 

Love

This is ZE most important point you must have. Don 't start cosplaying if you don't LOVE the character. Only cosplay characters that you LOVE. Don't do it for the popularity or because you like the character's costume/face. I don't understand people that cosplay a character that they don't know. Always watch the series before cosplaying the character. I am not going to explain why. Learn from Nike and JUST DO IT . Don't cosplay the character just because you want to be the first in Your country or The world. Trust me, it won't get you very far.

Costume (+wig)

 You can't get started without the costume. Cuz the costume is part or the play. 

I KNOW THAT WAS LAME OKAY

Try to get the most accurate costume you can find. If you can't, 

tailor it.

Make-up

I think this will be the most long winded part to this blogpost. But it would mean "life or death" okay.

/gets slapped/ In my "generation" of cosplay, people look at the make-up more than the costume now....

The basic things you must have in your collection is 

-Foundation

Anime characters have nice skin. So foundation will be your best friend. Its essential to pick the right shade for your foundation. Since MOST characters have light skin. 

Cuz, you have characters like Ahomine. Also a tip, if you are doing a dark skin character, get a darker bronzer.

-Concealer

This is really important if you have lots of imperfections. And Remember to get the right kind of concealer for your skin. I will go into the nitty gritty details in another blogpost for cosplay make-up.

-Eyeliner 

This is very important if you are doing female characters, since most of them have huge eyes that is not humanely possible to achieve in real life. So to make you look a bit more like the character, this is your best bet.

-Lip balm

Since lipstick/ lipgloss is really up to personal preference, when you do use this products, always use a lip balm before you apply anything on your lips. Cracking Lips don't look good in photos.

This 4 products are what i consider the MOST important products you should have. But there is of course, many other sub-components to cosplay make-up which i may or may not talk about next time. 

The last part, which is also very important.

Feel & Posing

You have sadistic, moe, tsundere, yandere, kuudere and many other kinds of characters out there. So always try to bring out the character properly. When watching the anime, you can screenshot scenes of the characters to use as reference to your posing. Google will be your good friend too :D

Now, when you have got these checked off your list, you're good ;)

All thats left is to enjoy what you are doing (=w=)b

I hope this helped you. Do comment if you have any questions, i will be happy to answer them for you :D Also rate this post so I know how you feel.

Extremely Late AFA post

AFA 2012

So, I shall start my extremely late AFA post. I just felt the urge to blog about AFA so please bear with me a bit cuz i might be doing a little ranting XD. 

*DO NOT CONTINUE IF U DON'T LIKE RANTS*

.........

Okay so AFA was held at EXPO this year, since Suntec is under construction ;w;. Well, I have only been to Suntec/ MBS/ EXPO convention halls so i am in no position to comment on the location >A<.

But, honestly speaking, i was kinda disappointed with this year's AFA. 

1. Too expensive

Urgh i swear that $18 for stage access tickets is too frigging expensive. I mean majority of the people that go for AFA are students. Why price it so high OAO? Not everyone's parents are gonna fork out the 18 bucks for their kids. Mine certainly did not. And, how many of this non-cosplayers who really want to see the stage events can stay from morning till night? They pay 18bucks to stick around for like 3-4 hours? Totally not worth it. 

2. Too crowded

 Okay you can't really control the number of people that attend your event so I am not gonna talk about the organizers but, the people attending the event. I really wish Singaporeans can be more gracious and NICE. No you don't stand in front of a walkway and chat. And, I didn't really get to experience it myself cuz i had a tight time limit, my friend s told me there were too many weeaboos.

WEEABOOS. WEABOOS EVERYWHERE.

They were complaining how annoying it is to visit a booth and here weaboos go,

" OMG THIS IS SO KAWAII DESU"

"THIS IS SO SUGOI DESU"

and potentially add nyan

Someone needs to get Akashi's scissors and cut this out /inserts jenna marbles/. Really its not cute. It can get really annoying ;w; Spare me please. I just can't stand it. I'm sorry OTL.

Did i mention it takes forever to get from one place to another. Its that crowded. It took me like 15min to get from hall 7 to hall 6 to look for my friend. 

----------------

Now on to the next segment :D Like i said, i had a time limit so i couldn't visit the booths. I spent it all on looking for my friends. So i can exchange coscards with them HARHARHAR

These are my cards 8D

and these are the cards i got!

Please dun mind my super awesome bed (⊙ω⊙)

I only took 4 pictures at AFA. Of cosplayers that i have been admiring since STGCC. Well.. KuroBasu Cosplayers only. The K Project is cuz I LOVE K.

So here is the pictures!!!

K PROJECT!! 

<---Yata Misaki, Fushimi Saruhiko, Munakata Reisi

Got a picture of Hayashi Kirin! The twins on the left. 

<--- Kise Ryouta, Seijuro Akashi, Tetsuya Kuroko

The kuroko coser is Haejong. Never seen this cosplayer so i don't know much (ʃ˘̩̩ε˘̩ƪ)

Got picture of another 2 twins! Ojiru Juu(Min) and Akane Chian with Teppei Yaki in the middle! xD

<--- Kagami Taiga, Tetsuya Kuroko, Tatsuya Himuro

And the cosplayer many girls have been fangirling over, TOUSA BAO/Sara

Was kinda surprised when i found out he was doing Murasakibara ( ́・ω・`)

I feel so lucky to have gotten their coscards! Here are the pictures!

You see i even have Shin シン's coscard HARHAR . I am very happy, indeed. 8D

All in all i wish AFA was like before, not over commercialized and expensive -sigh- Do comment your thoughts on AFA too :D 

 That's all for this Post. I hoped you like it (｡´ ‿｀♡)

My first Cospure

Setting up this blog is not easy ( ́・ω・||`)

As the title suggests, I will be blogging about my first cosplay, which was Enma Ai from Jigoku Shoujo.

地獄少女

© Jigoku Shoujo Project / SkyPerfect • Wellthink • Aniple

" Somewhere in the vast sea of the Internet, there's a website that 

can only be accessed at the stroke of midnight. Known as the Jigoku Tsushin, rumor

 has it that if you post a grudge there, the Jigoku Shoujo will appear and drag

 whoever torments you into the inferno. Very little is known about

 the girl—all we know for sure is that she lives with her equally enigmatic grandmother, that

 three magical straw dolls accompany and serve her, and

 that whenever a posting on the Jigoku Tsushin moves her, 

she becomes the Jigoku Shoujo.  "

I might as well share my latests Enma Ai cosplay here too 8'D

Okay, So this is a picture from EOY 2011. The only decent picture i have. I don't even know if my first cosplay is decent anymore OTL

Till  this day, I still remember everything that went wrong. 

I HAD NO WIG CAP. I tied 6 different mini pigtails and booby-pinned them to my head and then put on my wig... which was constantly slipping off my head because i did not fasten it to my head

‎(ﾉಥ益ಥ）ﾉ ┻━┻

The wig was 80cm long. And, it got tangled before i even arrived at the event. 

ლ(ಠ益ಠლ)

And i forgot to bring my straw doll. I was only allowed to attend the event the event for 2 hours. And when i had to leave, it was raining cats and dogs. I didn't have proper Getas so i wore my school shoes....?The costume was too bloody long (didn't alter). Obi was badly tied pffffffffffft I wouldn't call it an Obi actually, it was more like a bloody piece of cloth  flimsy piece of cloth. 

And i took the MRT all the way from Woodlands to Raffles Place

In.Costume.

(ﾉಥДಥ)ﾉ︵┻━┻･/

And if you were wondering why my wig is so badly chopped, its because after i had that little spat with my mum, i was so sad and angry and and and i took it out on my wig.

_(:'3」L)_

 \ Story of My Life /

Anyway, Very cui okay ;w; Then, i went on hiatus and practiced my make-up and now made an improvement.

Photo from Cosfest XI

Everything was pretty smooth sailing during this event (ノ・∀・)ノ

Gave away all of my coscards and made new friends! AND I MET REIKA!

And my Laogong Hou lian pi wants a shout out so:

Hey There Frienship

So... I finally got down to create a blog :D

This is my obligatory First Post to this blog HARHAR.

I will blog about my cosplays/cosplay journeys/life/nonsense, as the title to the blog suggests.

AND ANIMANGA

Now please enjoy the music-

I have been cosplaying since December 2011. I attended my first event on the 15 of Dec. The event was EOY 2011, anybody went there? :D I was supposed to attend AFA as a cosplayer but I had a little argument with my mum and i was forced to go to China with her for two weeks 8'D. But, its cool. I kinda enjoyed it. Other than watching my stepdad and his buddy, Dan, eat silkworms, it was cool. 

I am a huge Fan of Naruto & Naruto Shippudden. Come fangirl with me on FB kay. /gets slapped/

Other series i am fond of is listed in the sidebar under "oh sweetness" /howdidicomeupwiththat/. I usually read shoujo mangas and watch shonen anime. But, its the opposite for my friends ._. When i read shoujo Manga, i feel like the shoujo sparkles are delivered better and give me more feels...? Anyway, shonen anime always has this awesome OST so it gets you pumped up HAH. Anyway, I shall cut the crap although i really want to continue with this crap. 

This are the characters i have cosplayed so far:

-Enma Ai, Jigoku Shoujo (kimono) 

-Enma Ai, Jigoku Shoujo (winter uniform)

-Alice, Pandora Hearts

-Shion, No.6

-Misaki Mei, Another

-Orihara Mairu, Drrr!

-Alois Trancy, Kuroshitsuji II (default)

-Tetsuya Kuroko, KuroBasu(Hyadain, Start it right away album art)

Tetsuya Kuroko, KuroBasu (Teiko)
