Well, last weekend was the anime festival and whit this, my first time as cosplay staff. IT WAS WONDERFUL.

I had lots of fun, running, getting sunburns onto my scalp, getting bitted by bugs,evaluating cosplayers, registering them... lalalalala

was a great weekend. The only sad thing is that i don't spared too much time with my friends with all that R-U-N (lawl B'z joke)

it was a wonderful weekend. And oh, sure, CONGRATS CONI (Kabuki_Ikenie)!!!! YOU KNOW THAT YOU'RE MY IDOL AND I DIDN'T EXPECT NOTHING MORE FROM YOU THAN WINING TWICE!!!!!!! She won the masquerade and the one to qualify to the Yamato Cosplay Cup, in two days! I WANT TO BE LIKE YOU WHEN I GROW UP!!!!!

I wanted to win that contest, but i didn't participied in any of the classificatories (duh)... but just because it was a free travel to Brazil.... I want to go again to see Diego. Oh god, he's so sweet... today, he made me cry with a pair of words THAT kind that i could't stop my tears. Diego, really, you're my lazy brother and i really apreciate what you do. Really. And i want to see you again soon *hugs*

I don't feel confident to make a costume to win the YCC classificatories, because of one of my stupid brain disfunctions, i'm scared. I'm freezing scared...

oh well... next year is next year.... maybe i'll make a good costume and be, almost, between the finalists.

Hi ppl =), i'm kind of happy today. i had my forst test of the university join ones, and it wasn't THAT complex. It was the language one, and that's my speciality =) (and yeah, from the next year my english will be better, i'm planning to study that on the university)

Ok, i was on a convention the last saturday, in the city where my mom lives, Temuco, at Chile's south, and i was the "mascot" of our stand. I was cosplaying Ryune from SRW, NOBODY recognized me ahahaha, but i was very happy. It was my first skimpy costume after my massive weight lost. But JUST THE DAY AFTER.... my period cames. And my tummy wasn't flat... I looked like a intoxicated dog all the event, but i was sucking in my tummy all the day LOL... it's noticeable just in some pics... that i will "pimp" a little on photoshop (i don't understand WHY the black circles under my eyes are still noticeable after two layers of concealer, foundation and powder...)

well, there's a pic where you can't see my tummy, and i love it. I will upload it to my gallery after i finish to write this.

Showing up a little skin more was a little step for me... i'm still not confident about this kind of costumes (because i still think that i'm a hueg manatee...), and i was very shy at first... i was wearing my coat for a long time after feeling sure to show my boobs and my tummy... oh and my hobo pants ahahaha

the first step is always the hardest. I will continue with my exercise and dieting to have the perfect shape for Yoko and another jailbait costumes i have planned...

btw, thanks to Dani for the ultra rush job on my pants, and also to my mecha club. I LOVE YOU GUYS! you're the only people that makes me to feel "normal".

My friends failed me for the AF cosplay masquerade (the only category we have here)

well... more time to get a flat tummy and style a wig instead of making just an extension. I'm kind of sad about this, but i completely understand my friends and i just can't say anything about. Tito is finishing his university year, and is also taking antidepressives because he is in a very deep depression now, and Kabu is my favourite chilean cosplayer (well, she and Pili are), and she WILL win the contest the day after with her costume. So, she will need to wear it again in sunday (the day we were supoused to compite)

I want to cosplay, badly. I really envy the people who can sew and one day wake up and say: oooh, i really want to cosplay xxxxx from xxxx. Oh and i have money for the fabric!!!. Let's go to buy everything and let's start making the patterns in the afternoon!!!... If i just... could sew straight, cut straight and make my own patterns or even learn to modify them... I have a big pile of fabric and projects that maybe never will be make...  

Uh, a happy new (this blog is being sad as hell lately) i got my first international wig commision! yay! Diego asked me about an ichigo-ish wig, and i will carry it with me when i come to Brazil to see the JAM Project in july =) I'm so happy about that, and i've already choosed the base wig for it. I just hope to do a good job with that, i really feel Diego like all of my chilean friends, he IS my friend, and i don't want to dissapoint he. He's so cute and i really love to talk nonsense with he. And we talk in english *LOL* (i can understand portuguese very nicely but... oh well xD) 

I'm lazy tonight, i'll make copypasta of this onto my other blog. c ya next time~

Since i started my own cosplay blog (you can see it at http://www.amadareblues.com ;D) i completely forgot about this blogspace ^^U sorry!!!

And i'm kind of amused because i'm still between the top bloggers and... the last time i posted something was ages ago...

Well, updating a little... i started to take medication for my anxiety and i dropped almost 20 or 30 pounds..-. now i need to force me to eat because i don't feel hunger in all day. Well, i look fantastic now, i just need to tone up a little and i'll be like i always wanted. 

Also i started to go to a psychiatrist... i have an alimentary issue beside my anxiety and my other issues... and i need to take care about it because it's very similar to bulimia and it can turn into that or anorexia so easily... I'm very f***ed up really...

I didn't made any of the costumes i planned, for the same reason. I lost 2 sizes of clothing, and also i'm very nervious and fragile emotionally talking, so i decided to stop cosplaying till i finish to lose weight and finish this phase of my life. In less than 15 days i'm taking again my university join test and i'm very anxiouys about that too...

BUUUT in mid december i'm going to cosplay Yoko from Gurren Lagann finally!!!  now i'm starting to feel confident with myself to do that kind of jailbait costumes

I want to do a good job, so i sent to made my boots (because i feelt uncapable to do them properly) and thei're going gorgeous. I also dropped a few inches of bust (sadly...) and i found a grat bra to make the top for a very low price. It's 1 size smaller than me, so there will be more boobs showing than the average Yoko xcosplayer LOl

i'm leaving now, see ya =), and don't forget to comment on my other blog... it's a little empty by now in comments...

Ok, i posted in all the chilean forums i can selling my wigs, and no one seems to be interested.

Chilean cosplayers are so greedy. I just got this kind of answer: I can get a wig for 10 bucks here, i don't mind if it shines like hell, ty. OH! 30 bucks are too much for a wig!!!

And then all of them complains about Chile not going to WCS and not appearing on the cosplay world map too. sure! the japanese people will come here and select us just because we're cute! STFU.

I'm really dissapointed about them. Mostly because we have a lot of good cosplayers that uber fails on their wigs. And yeah, wigs are very important for the average looking of the costume. Even a crappy costume can look great with a good wig, but a good costume will look like crap with one of those shiny monsters we have here.

I'm really in the need of money... I just have 20 dollars to finish this month (and today is just august 17th...) If just somebody buy the two wigs i have on sale i will survive the rest of the month. Also i need to buy Kallen's wig...

I'm going to cry, brb

YESHH!!! finally!!!

I (with Pau and Pili help) convinced my boyfriend to cosplay with me, after almost 3 years of constant beg.

When we started to watch Code Geass, he said that someday he will cosplay Zero. Now, I reminded that to him, just because we NEED a Zero on our Geass cosplay for sept. 29th.

Also, i changed my mind about the suit i would use. At first i was thinking on make the standart guerrilla outfit (the red and brown one) but now i really want to do the Kuro no Kishidan one. Mostly because i want to be my bf's bodyguard xD

oh dear, i'm so happy *o*!!!

btw, i found and bought the knited fabric for Kallen's top and leggins too, so i will do that suit in the future. And lots of black twill to make the other uniform. YAY!!!

Suuup~

K. September cosplay is coming and i need to buy the wig for Kallen soon if i want to recieve it with enough time to re-style it.

So i'm a little unsure about what wig i should buy. The last one i ordered was too light and i'm selling it right now...

I  asked about her wig to a very good Kallen i found on c.com (SeishinKibou is her screen name) and she said she bought this one  . I liked a lot her wig, but i find it so red and i want one more burgundier/pinkish

So, i was thinking about this one. I love the wigs from this seller, and i'll just need to add some extra spikes (behold the power of bargain hairspray!!). I haven't see anything more that will work. If any of yours thinks that another wig will help, please send me urls xD

If anybody can help me, i'll be grateful forever D:

Thanks!

oh dear, today was and still is a great day... well... till now

I went to the bank for fixing some troubles i had with my debit card. My mom sent me my monthly money one week ago, but my card didn't work anymore... so i lived this week with less of 2 dollars. Anyway, after waiting in a line for 3 hours i finally fixed my card...

I was so happy for that, and i started wwalking to the store where i buy my styrofoam things to buy a new head (because my old one is on Tito's house and i need to take pictures of some wigs i want to sell...)... i bought my head, then i started to walk to the "details" district (a street called Rosas, where you cand find anything to make details for costumes, i.e. tapes, buttons, beads, artificial flowers... etc). 

I went to the "fabric x kilo" store (ow... how to explain this) Is basically a store where they sell bulks of fabric, apparently USA and europe store remnants. You buy them not by measurement but for weight. they don't have too much variety, but sometimes you can find very interesting things.

I started to dig on the spandex basket and... TA DAA!!! i ound the exact lilac color of Meer's bodyce. Lots of them. I didn't think twice and i bought it. how much? 1.5 dollar.

With hapiness on my mind i started to walk by the details stores, searching some ribbons to make Haruhi's hairbands to sell =X... I found exactly what i wanted, both ribbons and the hairbands itself. at a very convenient price.

but the most important discovery didn't happened yet. I walked by a party store. And in the shop window was a beautiful wig. a craptastic wig! the color and the shape was so Haman-ish... the bad thing is that's a cheap party wig and shines like hell...

i thinked a lot if i would buy it or not... and finally... i bought it ;O;... it's SO unnecesary... but that color, the color i ever wanted to make Haman is rare between good quality wigs, and the images of the internet shops never shows the true color of the wigs...

I will work with this one till i found a good wig to make the job... but's so lovely ;O;
