My cold is gone :3 yay! (with the exception of the very random cough once in awhile...but I won't count that ask being sick!)

So, this will probably be the last journal update before I poof to Hong Kong later this week, and I'll come back mid-May. Oh it's going to be so fun :) I haven't been back in awhile and plus we're going to Japan! ^__^!

Only problem is I barely have anytime to work on my costumes and plushies for Anime North. Eek..? I'll figure it out :XD: I have a lot of stuff cut out right now, and I have to sew it all up and finish some other things...
I'm a little but worried about the costumes, but I think...it will work out too :3

I wonder...how much stuff I'm going to buy on this trip. I'm a little but worried. I see 'DEBT' in large letters in my dreams and stuff...*laughs*

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

My exams ended (yay!) and I've been working on my wigs and buttons. Not to mention somehow ended up at the fabric store and went slightly crazy on the shopping....:XD: Ohhh...what am I going to do with the massive amounts of fabric I own. I can seriously open up a store...O_O;

I've been having fun with my wig for my "Prince" costume from FFv13. The bangs were so long, it was great cause when I put it on, I was having an 'omg, it's like a Zexion wig' moment. So, I had to take some pics cause...well, I don't ever work with wigs with very long bangs very often, (mostly because the characters I choose don't have long bangs for some reason...O_O.)

I finished styling and cutting it yesterday, and I tried it on, my mom walked in and kinda stared at me. I looked at her and flashed the most ridiculous smile and said, "LOOK, THE BACK IS FLUFFFFFY" :XD: the joys of hairspray...too bad you can't see it in the pictures...

---->

^The transformation~~ *OOHs and AHHs...* :rofl:

The lighting in both pictures is weird. *sigh*

My friends pointed out to be that I look very...hmm...'manly' in the Zexion picture. I laughed and said, "Well, I guess that's ok since I'm supposed to look like a guy(?)"
The whole gender-bender thing is pretty funny. I'm surprised I pull it off O_O! I don't think I look as 'manly' in the Prince picture. Probably more boyish..

It's weird, when I wear the wig and look at myself in the mirror, I look really cute! O_O! But from what I can tell, the prince doesn't have the 'cute' aura right now. I have to think "angst" or something. *head desk*

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

Moving along, I started playing World Ends with You on the NDS. I Love it! :) The storyline is pretty interesting and the gameplay is much better than some of the other games I play. (Better than Animal Crossing for now..haha, I've been playing that for months...it was starting to get boring... -__- )

Now, I'll patiently wait for FF4 to be translated for the DS, and KH 358/2 Days. :3 Although, I think the latter won't be released for awhile...

Well, I'm off to go sew some stuff!
I'll have to reply to everyone's comments and deviations after I come back from my vacation.

luv <3

Thank you ^__^;

No I don't sell the plushies that are displayed in my gallery, unless otherwise stated.

I only make duplicates when I'm asked to commission a character or when I want to sell them to make some extra money... ^__^;

Your cosplays and art as so awesome. But I am in love with your plushies. Specially your Axel. You don't sell them do you? -puppy eyes-
