Shenanigans #5 The Post PAX Edition [DAY 0]

Hellooooo, Internet. :3

Well, PAX Prime 2013 has come and gone. I can, honestly, say that I had a good time this year despite all of the recently accumulated drama surrounding the con. (If you've no idea what I'm talking about, you can refer to this well-written article on WIRED. Why I'm Never Going Back to Penny Arcade Expo)

Good stuff:
Friends
Parties
Free swag/loot/booty
Amazing cosplay

Meh Stuff:
Less free stuff than previous years
Harder to get said free stuff (ie. you need to pre-order or wait in long lines to play the demo)
Con funk on Day 1

haha There wasn't anything bad about the con, from my experience. Good friends will always make your experience a thousand times more entertaining.

Merry Christmas/ALA

Merry Christmas, everyone! ( ･∀･)ﾉ

I hope that you're all enjoying your holidays.
I've been so fortunate this year and I couldn't ask for anything more. Things have been going so well, compared to the last couple of years, and I really hope for everything to continue going well. (I probably jinxed it, didn't I? OTL) This year, my Dad is able to join us for Christmas and it's so nice having him home. I've also got a really amazing boyfriend that's just as nerdy as I am.♥

Anyways...

I did some Christmas themed nails a couple of days ago. I probably should've cleaned up the cuticles before taking a picture, but I wanted to take a picture before I messed it up. Does anyone else have that problem? I always end up doing something stupid, to mess up my nail polish, while it's drying.

-There are less than 2 weeks before ALA.
-I have only one costume that I need to work on.
-It's a really simple costume.
-...I have no motivation to do anything cosplay related. #lazycosplayers

I'm working on Aoi Asahina from Dangan Ronpa.

(You can find more info on the game here: >> Dangan Ronpa (ダンガンロンパ) <<)

Everything about this costume is relatively easy. It's just the wig that I'm going to have trouble with. I've already got it, a dark brown (056) Jeannie from Arda Wigs. Right now, I'm just waiting for my lenses. I really hate waiting for international packages, but that's what I get for standard shipping. I'll be doing a review on the lenses as soon as I get them.

I'm sure that I'll get my ass in gear later this week. For now, I'm just going to try to not think about it. 

Here's my lineup for ALA: 

Aoi Asahina - Dangan Ronpa

Gumi (Happy Synthesizer) - Vocaloid

Frilly Lolita fashion business

I don't have any set days for these, except for Aoi. I'll be running around with a DR group on Saturday.ヽ(‘ ∇‘ )ノ I'm really excited just to see my friends again. We all live pretty far apart, the farthest friend is coming down from Canada. It should be a pretty good weekend. 

A friend of mine launched a blog of her own, recently. Check it out if you get a chance!

+5 TO DEXTERITY

Isn't that the coolest blog name ever?! Seriously. If you're into gaming, sewing/DIY, food, and great fashion finds, she's got it there. 

That's it for now.

 Happy holidays everyone! Take care and be safe!
