Cosfest XII Day 1 [6.07.2013]

In an effort to not be late, I am writing the post now....

HELLO. So I attended Cosfest XII (day 1) yesterday  (❍ᴥ❍ʋ). Cosfest is a Cosplay Convention held every year and the admission is FREE! \o/ This year's cosfest is also known as Heart Of Cosplay . There were cosplay catwalks /didn't participate/ , performances by an Indonesian cosplay group and Karaoke (っ˘ڡ˘ς)

Reika Arikawa attended Cosfest this year too! She was selling her merchandises at the event and they sold out completely. People were already queueing at her booth before the event even started. OAO
AND SHE COSPLAYED RAVIOLLI  RIVAILLE ON DAY 1. /fangirls/

With every /big/ event, the number of attendees (cosplayers) increase and Cosfest is not an exception. It was so crowdeddddddd (=_=)  . And it was super hot too /cries/ Thank god it was air-conditioned in the tent.
Ahh... I forgot to mention who i was cosplaying as at the event \( ﾟヮﾟ)/
I present to you ONODERA RITSU!!

/Urm... If you are on my Facebook you should know that recently my Sekaiichi Hatsukoi Fandom has spiralled 'out of control'   kyaha . I revamped my entire facebook profile and even gave myself an alternate name called 'TakaRitsuFag'/

Anyway, this is me.  

I have not worn my black shirt yet....

Of course i do have a Takano <3 <3 <3

Kairin Puripuripuri

Okay so for the first time in a very long while, I did my preparations at home (make-up etc.) Cosplayer Xuan Hui also came over to my house to prepare and then we cabbed to Downtown East . She did Mikasa from Shingeki No Kyojin.

 

As i was on medication, I was feeling drowsy for like 70% of the time. So, if i acted really anti-social or stuff, I apologize (◞‸◟；)

I actually bought a Fujifilm Instax a day before event (to capture memories at events since i am leaving) XD I might do a review for it (◡ ‿ ◡ ✿)

(Btw, Polaroid is actually a brand and not the name for the instant pictures/films. Polaroid is a camera brand like Nikon/Canon/Pentax that is no longer being made. So don't be confused no more!)

I am extremely happy and grateful to have been able to attend Cosfest. I was able to meet my friends and my Idols ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ I also collected many coscards and now i really need 2 more new name card albums to store my friend's homeless coscards (;´༎ຶД༎ຶ`) 

I only bought myself an Armin badge [#´Д`] Not really a big fan of Chibi art so many of the badges didn't appeal to me OTL. /no picture/

Time for the instax!!

 

 I took my first ever Instax with Tousa Bao/Sara! Extremely lucky to spot him right at the

start of the event ( ＾◡＾) Even got him to sign on the picture hurrrrr.

The second Instax I took was with the twins Akane Chian & Ojiru Juu(min)

When I got them to sign on the picture Tousa Bao was like "never ask me 

to sign!!" wwwww he forgot he already did hahahahaha 8'D

The next 2 that i took was with my Takano <3 (kairin). The Instax on the left was 

taken by someone else with her own Instax (・ω・) So nice of her to give

me the picture 8'D The one on the right is me and Takano's lovey dovey picture 8'D

Next one was with Looi En Qi (Yosuke Sora)! Was resting at the ticket booth /drowsy/ and

she came to greet us 8'D Took one with her 8D

Saw Shine so chiong-ed there to grab a picture and exchanged coscards 8'D 

so slim aslcakjhhfiu

Then i saw Mein and Asta ლ(o◡oლ) As you can see they said I am Akane (Psycho Pass)...

\|°▿▿▿▿°|/ :no: and now my name /to them/ is officially 'German Girl'... Ah long story...

AND LASTLY, REIKA!! <3

Super lucky to have gotten a shot with her!!! She was surrounded by SO MANY FANS. 

I honestly felt a bit pissed. Everyone was crowding around her and its the end of the event

and she is tired. At least me and kairin /and a few others/ had the decency to move away and make space for her =_= When there was space I asked for a picture because that was probably the last chance

i would get to take an instax with her /leaving SG/.

To Cosplayers: Please please please be considerate to your Idols. Don't crowd around them and give them no space. At least leave some space for people to take a proper picture and don't push.

Okayyyyy, So i have come to an end for this post. Lastly, I would like to Thank SG Cosplay Club for organizing this event again this year.

And to the readers , thank you! 

I shall now go recover from my muscle aches (ʃ˘̩̩ε˘̩ƪ) 

DBS Marina Regatta 2013

Helloooo! It's been an EXTREMELY long time since I last blogged, but no worries, I am still alive _(:3 」∠)_

Last Saturday, 18 May, I attended Cure (event) which was part of DBS Marina Regatta 2013 (DMR13). Cure is an event jointly organized by DBS and the Singapore Cosplay Club. One of the purposes  was to promote Cosplay as a hobby. Other than cosplay, there was, of course, other events going on such as dragon boating. 

It has been almost a year since I touched cosplay and I am extremely  grateful to have been able to attend this event!! Thank you mom & dad (；´ﾟ∀ﾟ｀)

On to the event!!

 I arrived at around 1 and was cosplaying as SeeU that day.

I kind of wish that event organizers would stop organizing outdoor events. Actually more of like non-air conditioned events? 8'D I mean, it's not easy to keep your make-up on your face with Singapore's tropical weather (￣∀￣；)

MOVING ON.

I won't have a lot to blog about as I was feeling unwell halfway through the event and had to resort to hiding inside MBS to rest. My best friend was having high fever that day too, so yea we were both sick, Like umm stomach aches and I felt like puking... NO I AM NOT PREGNANT NOR  WAS I FEELING THE NEED TO SHIT. The weather was HOT too ;w; 

Anyway, I did manage to take a FEW pictures before leaving. 

Look at the number of booths! 

(P.s. the dragon boaters were very hot) 

I also manage to take a few pics from the JoJo pose competition.（≧∇≦）

PITCHA だ！

Also, a few camwhores!

With Ariane! a.k.a 老公

Kairin! 

Jas!

Kang Yu! Hurr both have blonde hair and blue eyes (⊙ω⊙)

Despite not being able to enjoy the event to the end, I do want to thank a few people! (Paiseh, copy and paste from FB 8'D)

"Firstly, I would like to thank my grandparents 8'D. They were such good sports and made me happy before I attended the event and stuff 8'D

Second would be (kairin). Thank you for going around the event with me and being like a "mother", carrying my coscards and lending me your mirror OTL. Umm and accompanying me on the escalator like 10+ times to take UNGLAM photos and joining me on my road to becoming a seiyuu LOL. My hamburger face is a thank you gift 8'D And damn those tarts you gave me and Ariane was badass (#ﾟﾛﾟ#)

Third would be my 老公, (Ariane). Thank you for being on time and coming for the event despite being sick. We both couldn't sleep the night before too 8'D Although you were sleeping for 3h at the event and missing out on a lot I am quite sure it was worth it CUZ you got to see *cough cough* ☆〜（ゝ。∂）Anyway, take care of your health a bit more QAQ

(Wisty)!! You keep on falling of your extremely tall Getas it's scary QAQ Thank you for joining me and kairin for awhile to go for bishops hunting 8'D And I know you are confused by that sound I was making at 7Eleven. It's nothing dirty I swear (；▽；)

(Alan) ! Although you neglected me /flips you/ I am glad we met up and took a few pictures 8'D sorry for disappearing halfway though, I wasn't feeling well and Ariane needed aircon 8'D I think I lost a part of my youth from acting cute (ノω=｀)

Next would be the Malaysian cosplayers! 华文真的很差OTL很开心能认识你们！谢谢在FB上跟我聊天和跟我一起合照！

Lastly, thank you to everyone who said hi to me at the event and took pictures with me too! I got to meet my idols I feel so happy 8'D Thank you for the coscards too!"

Conclusion picture ヽ(ﾟ∀ﾟ)ﾉ

I won't be attending anymore events for the time being, I think... But anyway, thank you for reading this post!! Hopefully you enjoyed the pictures ∑(ﾟ∀ﾟﾉ)ﾉ 

BYEEE <3

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 (｡´ ‿｀♡)
