1. Add a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!
2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It’s actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I’ll assume you’re playing the game and I’ll come to your blog and leave one about you.

1. If you could change one life-changing event in the life of someone important to you, would you?
Aha! I don't have to have a definite event or a definite person, yes? Either way, I wouldn't change a thing. People need to experience things to learn and hopefully become stronger.
2. Which do you think is easier to do, being friends for many years, or being life partners for many years?
I don't have any experience on the Life Partner front, so I think friends. (: Also, friends can go their different directions, but when you meet them next, you still click beautifully. Life partners sort of stick with you forever, no?
(Yeah, I think my answer isn't very good either. :/)
3. Have you ever walked away from someone you considered a friend?
...No, never consciously and willingly. However, I am outrageously selfish, and hence I may not realise that I am walking away.
4. If you had to choose between telling the truth and hurting a friend or lying and making them happy, which would you choose?
Well, generally I am not in a position to tell them zomg hurtful truths that are hurtful. When I give compliments, they are honest. If I HAVE TO mention hurtful truths, I usually mumble and remove myself from the conversation unless I know that they are more than just... acquaintances or friends I've only just met.
Then I let it rip. 8D
5. Which would you rather hear--the truth which will hurt, or the comforting lie?
Tell me the truth. As I've said before, I can handle it, but who knows how I'll handle it? XD

I changed my desktop wallpaper to one of Gokudera.
Now I can't stop staring at my desktop! D:
Home: Kufufufu, you are a paedophile! <- Makes sense the demon muse would be a Mukuro fangirl, of all things. *flail of horror* AND WHY IS GOKUDERA FOURTEEN?!?!?! This is so WRONG.
In other news, I went out with Jovana for lunch today! Alas, the pancake place in Carillon City was packed and the Northbridge one was closed. So we ended up eating delicious fake animals at Utopia (I'm shocked at how delicious they are... o-o)! Chocolate Mocha smoothie is LOVE.
Then we went out to SciTech (which is the Perth equivalent of Singapore Science Centre, except smaller and I think has more interesting and fun exhibits), where we met Shasta, who let us into Horizon and SciTech for free. 8D Horizon is like the OmniTheatre, except they don't show IMax films. Just constellations. *_* It was really impressive. They also showed a film "Search for Life" which looked really good and made for the big circular screen, as opposed to just being a blown-up version of a normal movie.
I like SciTech. A bit crowded, but that was because it's the winter school holidays now. Shasta has such an awesome job, o yeah!
On the way home, Shasta and I met Bert! :D And there was much explanation that while Perth did actually have tall buildings, I wasn't supposed to recognise them as tall buildings, or indeed kill myself. XD And that concludes the day really.
My homestay parents have gone to Singapore! Leaving me at home to ahem, take care of the house. Wheeeeeeeeee~!

Haha.
I'm going to kill myself now. Awesome la.
(P.S. - This should in NO way be taken seriously. Perth has no tall buildings to jump from! FAIL.)
[Edit] Am feeling much better after hot shower! ^I still think the postscript applies though, o yea.

I have to go to the city tomorrow (because TransPerth is EVIL). Anyone want to meet me for lunch? :3
|
|
| I'm going back to Perth! |
[15 Jul 2008|01:24am] |
Yes, I'll be going to sleep after this.
Thanks for inviting me for karaoke. The reason why I wasn't surprised was because I knew you were going for karaoke either Monday or Tuesday. XD I love you all very very very much anyway. <3<3<3
You know how Facebook has that "Interested in..." thing right? My mum saw I was interested in Men and Women. But I put Friendship as what I'm looking for. So she just loled. 8D;;;
Sunday was Air Gear shoot. Yay! Skateboard was somewhat fail but at least Gorgon-chan (my dolly) was done. Everyone was awesome. Ringo onee-chan was there (I was actually a little worried I would have no sisters), and I hung out lots with Kilik (SOUBI~~~). XD Met a few people properly. Also. SILKWORMS.
I was counting my cosplays for this year and discovered if ALL plans go ahead, I should be doing 16 or 17 outfits this year. XD;; So far I've done:
- Selingde (Photoshoot)
- Ume (Photoshoot)
- Misa (Event/Photoshoot)
- April (Party)
- Asa (Event)
- Ritsuka - Blue Overalls (Event)
- Himawari (Event)
Wheeeeeeeee~!

In a slightly depressing turn of events (only very slightly, haha), I realise I look like a transvestite trying on all my cosplay outfits as I make them. It's the hair. D:!!!
I mean the outfits with skirts, of course.

I have to do it, because I almost died from laughter at least three times reading this. XD
Omniscient Yellow Fluff
It's Hibird-centred! :D
I have strong suspicions there is slight Mukuro/Hibari, but you can read it without being overly concerned about that. No wait, now that I read it again, there's Dino/Hibari as well. Er. Anyway. PG. READ. Read for the awesome that is Hibird!

Cosfest was super supreme win. XD
First day I cosplayed Ritsuka from Loveless, blue overalls/DUNGAREES version. I started working on it on Thursday. XD Managed to finish well; there's not a single safety pin, piece of sticky tape or UHU glue on it! (Admittedly, the buckles are a bit dodgy, but dodgy in the I-have-no-clue-how-buckles-work-press-studs-ftw! sort of way.)
Very pleased with how it turned out. VERY. Never thought that Ritsuka would be my first male cosplay! Binding was last-minute but almost embarrassingly successful. I thought it would hurt. Wig could do with longer bangs to the sides, but seriously? It was all good. I may or may not be the only cosplayer to do this version without ghetto-ing the overalls. Scariness!
I didn't get a lot of photo love (which is not very shocking) but I did get a lot of cosplayer/random love, which mainly comprised of hugs, wants to take me home, and queries as to where my Soubi was ("In Australia..." :P). Also! After a long time of giving ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) keokepa puppy-dog eyes (or should they be kitty-cat eyes?), he gave me a Seal of Approval sticker. XDXDXD
Second day I cosplayed Himawari from xxxHolic, with Kai as Watanuki and Melly as Yuuko. <3 SO AWESOME. We got mobbed by the photographers. o-o We have a hawt Yuuko, what can I say. Watanuki picked up a fangirl on the way. XD
I have to thank Zel, Jean and Alina for working on Yuuko's dress and accessories through the night even though they weren't involved in the cosplaying at all. <3 YOU GUYS ARE MADE OF WIN. Without you, we would suck. Much thanks to Melly also for making our butterflies for us. <3 And doing my eye make-up! I have learnt how to use eyeshadow. ^_^ Finally!
Two pics under cut to give an idea of what they both looked like. Will get moar pics. Both pics from sarahcoldheart. Yay!
( Read more... )
As to the actual con... point form!
( So on and so on... )
On Monday, I discovered that I scream a lot. Oh yeah.

Um.
Remember April and the streaky dye job that was streaky like streaky bacon? Uh. I just found out why it was like that.
In the instructions, one line reads "Fill a rust and heat proof vessel with sufficient water to cover fabric and allow easy movement during dyeing."
I think I omitted that step. LALALALALALA~~~
[Edit] This means I was trying to dye 2-3m of cloth in 500ml of water/dye.

I passed all my units. :) Anatomy I got Credit. And for Physiology, I GOT DISTINCTION. Which means I must have got some crazy mark like 78 in the exams. Sweet.

[29 Jun 2008|12:14am] |
In the morning, we had the GEP gathering. It was SO AWESOME to see people again, in the "zomg how much our lives have changed" kinda way. Dancing was great. :D Yinkae's speech was fantastic. <- Our cohort was like, the best cohort EVAR. It's great remembering how we lay down in the quadrangle to form the letters for "HAPPY TEACHER'S DAY" and how weird the teachers were (like Sir and his geography tectonic plate dance). I don't want to go through secondary school again, but these are very precious memories, and they always will be.
My teachers remember me! *beams* Even Lao Shee! Mrs Yong was there (she was my form teacher for Sec Three and Four, and also our Maths teacher), and she told me that I wasn't so quiet anymore, and that she was shocked to see me dancing. Same for Melly, Zel and Alina. XD <- But Alina was never really quiet! Not only this, my Higher Chinese teacher who taught me for a year before I switched to normal Chinese remembered me. :) She said I was more huo po (lively) now. Ah well.
More than a third of our cohort turned up, which is pretty good when you consider how many people are overseas at the moment. I saw Gwen (who is the only junior I recognise AND recognises me also in turn)! :D There were lots of comments on my hair.
The catered food was delicious. :D
Later at night, I went with Melly, Zel to KHK. Kai joined us later. *_* Omg, the singing was overall amazing. I think the last performance of Gackt's Redemption was the absolute best. But really, there were a lot, a lot of great performances. Totally worth going all the way to Choa Chu Kang for.

| I needed to write this while I am still sound of mind and relatively sound of body |
[27 Jun 2008|07:29pm] |
Anyhoo, I finished Selphie's skirt, and cosplay progress is okay. Thing is, my body decided it wasn't very happy. How do I know this? Because when my period came today, it was manifestedly not HAPPY AWESOME COOL TIEMZ. Remember I wrote once about how I was horribly exhausted once when my period came, and I was crawling around trying to puke and die at the same time? Oh yeah! Happened towards the end of dance practice today. D: I couldn't walk properly. Thank you to everyone who took care of me!
So I'm here thinking (even though I'm not in pain anymore, after a good nap), that my body might not be in the greatest condition ever. Certainly I haven't been sleeping properly, and I really don't want to go through another cramp session like that again. :/ Hence, I am warning that there is a possibility that two outfits MAY not get done: Selphie (which is lol, because the skirt is done) and Ritsuka's blue overalls (I do, however have another Ritsuka outfit which is actually 85% complete, so not a very very big deal). This is if my body starts acting up again, because I think health >>>>>> cosplay. I'm taking a break today to PRACTICE THE DANCES OMG, and then tomorrow, I'll just keep going with my schedule.
This isn't a "I have no time" or a "Oh noes, I suck" entry. :) I'm just suggesting a possibility.

The worst is over, because I wasn't sitting in front of the computer.
But I'm just so so so tired. I kinda want someone to pat me on the back and say "You can do it!" but I really don't feel like I deserve that sort of thing, because I pretty much got myself into this cosplaying messy thingy and it's therefore my fault and there is no encouragement to be had.
I do wish I didn't have to deserve things to have them. I hate deserving.
I wish I was better at meeting people. I wish I was better at making friends and keeping them.
I wish I cared.

It's late, and I've been working on cosplay (on Ume's doll's hair, it's now so much better than the first version :)), but I thought I should just make a note of this.
Today, for the first time, I have come to realise how COMPLETELY AMAZING Muse is.
Yeah, I know. I'm a bit slow.
