Fanime came and went. . .

bigfanime6

This year it felt really long since we live in San Jose now, we have never been able to be there all days- just the weekend. It has grown so much in the year that we missed. What happened??? Well its good for fanime at least, to keep it going. There were a ton of “glomp me” people, they basically had a gathering just for themselves all weekend by the dealers hall /sigh.

This was my first time cosplaying and it was a lot of work and preparation just to wear it for less than a day, and way too much money was spend for cosplaying too =( We all had problems with our wigs besides KC (i think) I eventually had to by hair extensions at the last moment, which coast a hecka lot! I had problems with the wig I bought on eBay, I should have not touched it!  I dyed it with yellow sharpie which made the green stand out, then I tried painting it with acrylic paint, which seemed to work until I got to the twist part (turned into a big ratty mess).  This also made everything in the bathroom turn yellow, including my hands and arms making me look like I had jaundice. So as for the original wig it has been thrown in the trash to never be seen again . . .ever! Since I got hair extensions I needed my real hair to be the same color so I dyed it twice in the same day fearing that my hair will fall out to get it to close to the right color. The red wants to stay in my hair, its so stubborn hehehe. So now I am bleach blond, I haven’t had this hair color since I was 5!

Remember when I cleaned the apartment after finals? Well I got worse for fanime! Now it is clean up and sleep time. I think the dishes were the worse part, as always, but now that is over and done with =) Right now the bathroom,  kitchen and the area we call “hallway” looks the best, now we just need to work on our own sections of the “main room”.

OMG Fanime is this weekend! I just go tmy Medusa cosplay out fit from Dee at Etsy, thanks Dee! I just need to pix a couple of things: the tail, place higher on the rump and bring in the shirt a bit more so its fitted at the waist. I hope I will be able to fix these things before Friday. I’m actually just glade to get it, I was afraid it wouldn’t get here in time. This was my first time commissioning someone to make something for me. I think it came out pretty well.

Whats left: Finish dying my wig (messy) painting nails (found out that the acrylic paint works better than the nail polish for the arrows) and wear contacts a bit more, so I can get use to them (due to them be a blocked out color vs clear contacts, they are quite different)

ps outfit needs to be ironed, this is just out of the package look

pps OMG I’m so excited!!!!
