Ah ha! You knew this was coming!!!

Tae Yang’s Where U at!

I really love this song. But even better is at the end of this song there is a sneak peak at his next song which I believe is what he is trying to really promote. It sounds good already…

He looks soo… so…. fiinnnne in this Video. I love his dancing. I love how he wears all white in it too! Rawwrr <3
Reminds me of Len… Tae yang as Len… lol!!! I’ll be his Rin then. waiit… they’re sibilings -.- but but… meh.

Tae yang makes me happy xD
And today is NOT a good day T.T

I’m like uberly happy! And as I like to show progress.. I took pics here and there~ Here they are!

White shirt w/ sleeves! I hate the cosplay during this stage, it makes it look like it won’t turn out right xD

Got the red part on. (actually biased tape xD)

Yay for progress xD

Sleeves and bow done~

Now all that’s left is wing, headband?, inside light blue part. Oh! And the SOS leader arm band xD

Oh and these pics do show off my hair a bit more too. I puropsely put my long hair part in the back cause it kinda looks like Haruhi’s hair like how it is in the pic yea?
I told you it was short! (but more about that later)

This Haruhi outfit in total will be done in about.. what…4-5 days? Pretty quick yea? I believe so. Needa get it done for Halloween!
My bro told me about a cosplay contest up farther than where my school is.
I want to enter something in but nothing I already plan to enter. the prize is $100 so I really do wanna win.
I was thinking either this Haruhi OR Miku! Cause both are well known. Miku will stick out cause of her hair though…

Either way. I plan to do that. It’s the day after Halloween so… o.o;; wait when is that?! Oh sunday. Whew. Okay that’s fine with me xD
More details about that later more likely!!

I am very proud. Now gotta do hw… lol!!! (its like 9 now. Dang you tv for distracting)

–Kimiko–

Your my heart heart heart — breaker!
xD

This song was just syuck in my head most of the day. Then I came home to stinkin Hannah Montana and her song got stuck in my head. So I had to go on youtube to get it out. And now I have G-dragon in my head~ woo~
Should’ve went for tae yang though huh…
Oh!! He actually got a new song out!
I’ll have to put it up later… later later. For a filler post xD
Filler posts are nice….

Anyways. This is my little.. post for today xD

Yay for music? lol!

–Kimiko–

Yes so I finally.. finally!! Started on the Haruhi skirt like I said I would.

and I learned from it! I learned… my butt causes a butt load of problems -.-;;
But whatever. I fixed it. just some creative thinking.
I’m not totally done yet and the pics suck cause… there isn’t many steps to this skirt.
It did take me a few hours to make cause I was ironing lots of wickery tape instead of sewing.
It looks cleaner.
And I lost my steam ripper… agiain!!! Argh. I didn’t get to use this one yet… Have to clean tomorrow T.T

So here’s some pics~

I think… 2… or 3 yds of blue!! So much >.< Too much! I used a little more than half of one side.

Actually had to do measurements to know how far to space everything apart. I’m proud of myself~ I did measurements!

2 in. box pleats. yay.

The top part. I want it so no thread is showing on top OR bottom.

And it doesn’t! Here is sorta the fit. it’ll be better.

A little up close.

I WAS thinking of doing a tutorial. But my ways are uberly long and too complex to put into a video. Like… seriously >.<
I’ll put the velcro on later. Then I have to go to Joanns to find the belt part.. I know how to make the belt but I need to buy the metal part.
Then the skirt’s done! I’m happy. I feel accomplished today.

(PS. I killed the HUGE cockroach today. I’m happy. But I refused to throw it away. it creeps me out more that they are dead. cause I’m scared it’ll rise suddenly and attack me T.T)

(Paragraph taken from Cosplay.com from Kasinator.)

“I figured it out! I figured out the why!!!

Think about it. People at football games pay big bucks for a huge TV or tickets to the game they can see on TV for free, and if that’s not enough, they paint their faces and wear Viking helmets and cheese hats and even go streaking across the field.

And what about the prom people who pull out every possible expense for one night of their lives? They pay for the perfect dress, buy the limo, fight for the title of king and queen! What are we doing that is so different?“

Now after reading this I was smiling like crazy. I didn’t really know why others couldn’t understand either and I think this statement does it just right.
I didn’t spend much money for prom. Nor did I really care if I did. For some girls the rush of it … is all they have. They had to wait 17~19 years for it! But me… what’s so different… that’s right xD I have cosplaying.

People use so many methods to escape from reality. Watch tv endlessly. Play games. Go to games.
I guess going to cons is just more direct. Well as it seems. Dressing up as a character.
I do it cause I wanna show off xD I want to show the world what I can do with myself and my talents!

So rawr to everyone out there who doesn’t appreciate cosplay. It’s like saying I don’t appreciate people who go to football games. That they are useless.
But in fact if millions like football. And another million likes anime/cosplay stuff. Doesn’t that make them the same in a sense?

Look at 1:42 ! xD It’s my char Kimikotan~
Cute ne? xD
Anyways!

Today instead of doing pure homework I decided to make a deviantart account. Why?
I dunno… I just thought it’ll be something good to have for my cosplays.
Will I keep it up?
Occasionally.

Here’s a limk!

I’ve been reading lots of manga before going to sleep…
And I only have a few books.
Like book 1-3 of Merupuri. Which I love this series, I want to get the 4th book still!
And book 1-5 of Kare’s First Love. Which is uberly cute.
I never get sick of reading them, but I want to buy the rest!! Rawr.
Hopefully one day. I’ve been waiting to find sales at cons, but meh. Not a good idea.

I also love some of the artwork in Merupuri. Since its… fairytale like~
I want to make a cosplay from there, it won’t be known… but maybe thats okay?
Okay not really… I want something known xD At least slightly.
I’ve noticed manga cosplays haven’t been so popular.
People like me can be lazy to read.
Which reminds me I should go to barnes and nobles…
I need to write my paper and home is a huge distraction o.o;;
Though knowing me I’ll just go to the manga section -.-
Or dresses…
Or artwork xD
