"To hell with the handkerchief."
Hellooooo
Holy smokes, where have I been? No idea.
It seems that everytime I say I’ll vlog, I don’t post for a century or two. So from now on, don’t ever expect a vlog from me. I think we both know that anyway, but I feel the need to say it, just in case.
SO. For those of you who haven’t abandonned this blog (and there were very few of you to begin with, so I don’t know how many are left), here’s what I’ve been up to.
A-Fest preperation!
Actually, I haven’t been doing too much for this, which is just stupid on my part. I have been better at planning, though.
Cosplay plans:
1. Aeris – Final Fantasy 7
2. Dean Venture – The Venture Bros.
3. Fire Nation Citizen – Avatar The Last Airbender
4. I dunno yet
But yes, there are FOUR DAYS of A-Fest. I find that wonderfully exciting XD
If I can’t get a costume for the last day, I’ll probably re-wear Aeris. And for pre-Reg, I’ll probably pre-wear Dean, since it was really fun seeing people dress up for that.
Here’s the coolest part so far: my Fire Nation costume is already made! Woo hoo! So all I have to make is Aeris’s dress and jacket, and then find stuff for Dean because that’s more of an assembly costume than a make-it-yourself. I found extensions for Aeris’s hair that match my own color, which is nice because they are C-H-E-A-P and I won’t have to wear a full wig. And Dean…well, I’m going to have to see what I can do about Dean. His hair is really short and his hairline shows, so this will be a learning experience.
Anyway, see I have a new theme? I wanted something a little more blog-geared and less article-geared. I don’t really write articles here. Although, I just got the idea that maybe I’ll go post-happy and talk about all the games I’ve been playing lately…hmm.
Anyway, I also wanted something a little more video game and fantasy based, something a little more romantic to look at – who better to feature than Garnet til Alexandros XVII from Final Fantasy IX? I’ve only featured the lovely Rinoa Heartilly on my banners until now, and she is my favorite, but I adore Garnet too, amongst a few others, and it’s nice for a change up.
Tell me what you think in a comment. Oh, and yes, I know the tagline is messed up, it sits in different spots according to the size of your screen. I’ll figure out how to fix that.

I always sporadically had my browser load your blog in hopes something new would be added! You should set it to tweet every time you post, which isn’t annoying since you don’t post every other minute. Twitter is a lot easier to follow then an RSS feed.
Now that I got that nagging suggestion out of the way. I finally saw your fire nation costume on Facebook and fell in love with it. The hair did it for me (Hello attention to detail awesomeness)
You should do one of the Disgaea characters if you want a gaming idea!…Crap, that is another nagging suggestion =( Flonne seems like an easier costume, yet still identifiable, whereas Etna allows for more flexibility. Of course, you probably need to finish the game first >_<

Haha I try to remember to have it tweet whenever I post, but sometimes I forget – I have to manually tell it to tweet so that if I adjust the update, it doesn’t tweet my edits by mistake.
Thanks for looking at my fire nation costume! Hahaha I lurve it but damn it is a pain to get in and out of. I really gotta remember that cotton fabric doesn’t stretch, like, at all…
Disgaea would be a lot of fun. (Nagging suggestions are welcome lol.) I would probably definitely do Flonne over Etna – Etna’s costume is hella intimidating, holy smokes. But yes, I should complete the game first. Or you know, at least make a considerable amount of progress in it. I’m gonna confess I still haven’t finished FF7 and I’m planning to cosplay Aeris still ^_^;;
