A small and simple update. Not a terrible amount to say but I do like to talk.

Now is the cosplay slow season. Saving and cuddling up in costumes I already have until SakuraCon. A have a 90% complete Miyazaki costume I haven't touched though could finish in a night if I wasn't lazy. Maybe I'll do that over break...I don't want to sell it or let it sit~

Hope to invest in a nice Vongola ring and possible X-gloves. I'm thinking of embroidering a pair of basic mittens until I can find someone to knit me his pre-Dying Will gloves. Anyone know someone or a store or commissioner?

Sad to say, but Shizuma from Strawberry Panic has officially been retired and sold. I loved its craftsmanship and beauty but sometimes the surrounding experiences make it not worth wearing. I'm glad to let it and the last of these memories go. I may someday come back to Strawberry Panic, possibly as Yaya or Amane. Those who enjoyed my SP cosplay: I appreciate your support and hope you still say with me for more friendship...and yuri. ;D

Still for sale is Sarah from Suikoden III and Elli from Harvest Moon. Both are lovely costumes that need to go soon.

Finished up K-on! and Aoi Hana. Both didn't end as I would have liked though the first part of both the series proved a fun ride. Now bumbling through Toradora when I'm not writing 15-page papers and rolling on the floor to warm myself--I think the heat in my dorm is broken. It's about 60 degrees on average inside. Heater is fine though I want extra-super-warm for this awful paper I'm fighting with.

Possible off-hand cosplay costumes on my list: Mio or Yui, Palm-top Tiger, depending on what I can borrow from whom. XD

was offering a very generous free sitting fee at her little studio and I was finally able to get some decent pictures of Dejiko since the blurry shots of SakuraCon2007. Gosh, she's such a great person and kind friend~

Anyone know a local Aizen, Ulquiorra, or Grimmjow cosplayer willing to take some shots with me as Arrancar Orihime? I don’t get enough use out of that costume and they pairings are endless.

I do hope all your holiday festivities have been well. Fine food, pleasant company--I wish it for you. Finals week begins next Monday and I haven't had much time this month to enjoy the beauty of Christmas. I am not religious, but the sweetness and heart of the holiday is something I adore. If you are in Washington, I have ample break and J-term (3 hour class, 4 times a week) open to fun-times with you. Please don’t hesitate to set something up with me; cosplay photoshoot, mall-time, what have you~


More Tsuna and Lelouch pictures to come!
