So little time, so much to do!

Well, my homework is already starting to pile up!! Whaaa! I have lots of pattern drafting work and ho ma gawd....I'm gonna die! Either that or work like a slave!

This semester, we are going to be making quite a few dresses. I figured I might as well make a cosplay somewhere along the line. Maybe someone can give me a suggestion? I have a few ideas...
Calista - The Last Story
Haru's Cat Kingdom Ballgown - The Cat Returns
Or for a super simple idea....
Kiki - Kiki's Delivery Service

I definitely wanna make a cosplay just so that I can have something xD hurdur

Also, I DEFINITELY wanna make a dress for Kyary's concert and I MUST MAKE SOMETHING FOR HER TOO AAHHH EVEN IF SHE WONT WEAR IT, IT WILL BE GIVEN WITH ALL MY LOOVVVEEE!!!

Hehe! I am SOOOOO EXCITED FOR IT even though it isn't until March xD THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH BEING EXCITED MONTHS BEFORE!!!

But GUHH I wanna go to anime cons before the year is over and get some pics of some cosplays...but Im not sure about the time >< I also have to figure out which costume to make for Disney!! Im not sure whether to be a princess or make a kigurumi of someone. I will have to see!

Ok back to clas now. More updates coming soon!

Starting up with school

So I'm now into my second week of school and this semester is definitely going to be a busy one! I think I'll still be able to fit in some room for cosplay though! The thing is, I now work 3 jobs...at the performing arts theater, on campus at college (which doesn't really get in the way or stress me), and now I also have an internship for three months! It will be a good learning experience because they do alterations at this shop...so I will be able to learn a bit! (the internship is at this small boutique called Champagne and Cupcakes. They sell party dresses as well as do custom dresses! But anyways, I'm going to try my best to get some cosplay work done, even with such a busy schedule!

I am so happy! My coscards came in the mail yesterday and I love the way they turned out! They are easy to read by flipping~! Once I have Kayle and Armin finished, I shall take awesome photos and then make coscards with them on it WOOT!!

I'm not too sure what my next convention will be, since now I doubt Dot Con will be happening. I was thinking maybe I will attend FrostCon. It's only $10 for a ticket, so I figured if I really wanted to go to a con before the year is done, I can go there.

I'm a bit sad because I'm going to miss the Anime North Halloween event again!! I will be in Florida and we will be attending Halloween events there, but it's just too bad cool things are happening while I'm gone xD

Alrighty, I'm going to continue to play Animal Crossing now hehehe!
