when my sailor mars was sold
Ha! My Sailormars is being sold on ebay again… still using the same pictures of me in it, and pieces of my auction description. It’s not a size 10, I’ll tell you that LMAO Maybe it’s a different one and they are just using my pics and description? Weird. Yesterday was a great day. In the morning I got up…

Lulu, Misato, Rally and She-Ra updates
We cut the pattern for Lulu’s skirt today. As soon as my credit card payment clears, I’m going to buy the red material for Misato. Once that happens, I’ll be on the way with everything for Animazement except Xiaoyu. How about an update? Lulu – have grey fabric, have fur, various bits of jewelry, and a wig. Patterns for everything.…

Misato, Lulu updates
I said it on my livejournal the other day, but I got the faux fur coat to use for the top of Lulu. Along with fabric samples for Misato. I think I’ll use the fabric, but I’m going to look around and see if I can find something like it around here that’s a little cheaper first. Animazement hotel booked…

So, happy year of the Horse, happy Mardi Gras, happy Lincoln’s birthday, and happy birthday to Catherine tomorrow, before I forget. She’s gonna be twenty, haha, she’s old now. I got my fabric samples for Misato (we’re gonna use it, it’s gonna be expensive tho… I may go look around this weekend and see if I can find something like…

Lulu progress & etc
I said it @ my cosplay journal yesterday, but I got my Lulu fabric. It’s not exactly what I wanted, but I think it will work all right. It’s a sort of suede material… it’s heavy enough that it won’t wrinkle around and stuff, but light enough that I won’t suffocate. I think I’ve figured out how to do the…

when we got a snow day
SNOW DAY!!! SNOW DAY!!!! SNOW— Oh wait no. I hope this doesn’t make Ash have to go to school one day longer at the end of the year. Her last day of school is May 23. Animazement is May 24. Oh no, don’t let that happen…

Lots of patterns!
Hohohohohoho, I won a whole lot of older, unused patterns on ebay for super cheap. I’m all excited! I can’t wait to see them up close and see what all kinds of neat stuff I got. I bid on that whole thing just for one particular pattern (for my Lulu skirt), the others are just icing on the cake! *joy*…

Animazement plans…
Whoohoo! I booked our flight for Animazement. I guess that makes it official now! We leave Nashville at 7:30 AM on friday and get into Raleigh/Durham at 9:40. It was the same price as the first tickets I found, which left Nashville at 7:00, stopped over in Cincinnati (sp?) and didn’t get into Raleigh/Durham until around noon. Heh! Too bad…

when i got a green wig
How did my Google search get in german? What the… I put up a new quiz! Finally. I guess I’m going to try to do Ocha, seeing as how I now have a pretty green wig. Hehe, changed the ranks on the bbs from Star Wars to LOTR. It was hard trying to categorize everything and figure who was more…

Excitement… upcoming cons
Goooosh I can’t wait for Otakon! I’m looking forward to Animazement, too, of course, but Otakon…! My aunt, my grandparents, Kristie, Ash and me are all going, it’s almost like a family vacation except with anime and costumes!! ooo I’m so excited! I’ve decided to hold off on Misato until Animazement, because I think we’re only going to do MidSouthCon…

She-Ra shopping
Went to Hobby Lobby (or, Hooby Looby as I originally typed) and got a few things today… beads and necklace stuff to start on my Lulu jewelry, and gold Friendly Plastic for She-Ra. They don’t carry just regular Friendly Plastic anymore… all they have are the coloured strips. I didn’t really matter what colour I got, since it’s going to…

Fabric, Patterns and Monkeys
Didn’t get Lulu fabric this weekend as I thought I was going to… I decided to wait and see if it goes on sale. I did find out the fur I wanted for it is $49 a yard! Geezus. Forget that. I did buy three patterns. It was expensive. Got a pattern for lulu’s top (it’s perfect! I was very…

Elf Cloak Pics

Upcoming Costume Ideas…
Hmm… I’m gonna go out into the woods and take some new pictures of my elf costume this afternoon. Ash and I talked for a long time about our costumes at the basketball game saturday night. I can’t find the stupid piece of paper where I wrote it all down, but Ash is looking at Meryl, pink outfit Ling Xiaoyu,…

Which Wig for She-ra?
Does the “Marilyn Blonde” Wig on this page: http://www.vavoom-gifts.com/bettie.html look enough like She-Ra’s hair? I think I’m going to get it, and try to curl it up a little more to give it a little more wave. I don’t want to spend a lot on this wig and the price on this one is much better than the ones I’ve…

She-Ra progress
Got red stuff for my she-ra cape, and some nice gold stuff for the… uh, gold stuff. That’s about it though. That gold thread was expensive.

when i couldn’t be Buffy
Oy, Buffy the Vampire Slayer isn’t anime!; Besides she doesn’t really have a costume, she just wears normal clothes! Go read Priscilla’s epic poem now!! (and yeah, Priscilla, I just got a tablet for christmas!) My head itches. I guess I should get up and go to work. *yawn*

when i made cosplay plans
All right, pardon me but I gotta spill a little cosplay talk into Whisky. Not because I want to annoy you, no, it’s because I need your opinion! The costumes I’m planning for next year… er, THIS year are: Rally Vincent (mostly done, will be won when bored at AZ), Misato’s NERV uniform (for MidSouthCon in march) She-Ra (MidSouthcon in…
