Welcome 2013

Voila, and a new post magically appears! I'm not even sure if people still drop by to read and be entertained or whatnot. But oh well *shrugs* I'm writing cause...I'm writing la! (Malaysian-ness o_o)

FIRST OFF!! CONGRATULATIONS everyone for surviving the Mayan Doomsday. we can now proudly show the 2012 movie to our kids and tell them, we survived that, and rebuilt our civilization. They'll definitely be so proud of us!

So two months or so since my last post. Nothing much to say here. So a short summary since my last post all the way up to the new year. So since my last post I've had a mad rush to complete a bunch of assignments from college, animating stuff and drawing stuff. Mind you, drawing with a tablet is...A whole new level of drawing. Pen and paper, cannot...compare to this. 

Example, this.

Yeah...Good question actually. What do you want?

Or maybe this.

Yeah..it's a face. (obviously *cough*)

Yeap. Pretty much took me quite awhile to get used to drawing with a tablet. 

AAAANNNNNDDDDD still getting used to it. Sad case for me eh?

Oh well, like they say, "Practice Makes Perfect".

 So I was done and over with my assignments after staying up a few nights, mush to the dismay of my poor body *pats self*. Procrastination...this has got to end  ._______. 

Then, one of the defining events in 2012 for me, I was invited by one special girl to one special event for her entire highschool life. Prom. Yes, you heard me right. Where ladies, and gents, dress up in their finest for a night of fancy dancing, food, refreshments, and the everlasting memory that comes with it. Also, marks one those rare moments I am ever dressed in a suit. I look too damn business like.

That's me on the left and that's my dearest girlfriend on the right

There you go. 

Then we got down the main business. The event I've always been waiting for every year.

Comic Fiesta. This year marks it's 10th year Annie-wear-saree(Anniversary). I must say, I feel proud, even if I have only attended for 5 years since 2008. How far we have come in 5 years, how far they have achieved, and how much I have achieved. From event goer to cosplayer. Another special event to remember, for it was at CF'12(ComicFiesta 2012) that I ever had my first couple cosplay.

Tidus and Yuna, Final Fantasy-X

Kaito and Miku, Vocaloid Senbonsakura

It was really a defining year for me, and a lot of things happened to change my life in every way. I met someone whom I thought was for me only to be corrected, and when I was down, almost giving up, another was by my side. It's all this unexpected moments that, really makes life a wonder.

Here's a little video to conclude, how my New Year's went. =)

2012 was a great year with great memories. To a better 2013 and greater memories you people!

Cheers all!

356 days or more, or less in the World of COSPLAY

Hello everyone and everybody. Hopefully the world is doing well, and Mother Earth is..doing fine. But anyways, hope all is well. So, I'm back again with a new post.

A year ago, or maybe slightly more (I can't really remember, blame my poor memory), I joined the Cosplay world. Yes, I am a cosplayer. Little did I know, a year has already passed since that day. And so today, here I am with a little something of something. And that something would be cosplay (obviously -_-). 

I've learnt plenty of things during my time cosplaying. I've also met a number of people during that period. Some were friends for the moment, and some other for longer period. Then there were those whom were friends for life. The journey so far was indeed, a great ride, bumpy and full of road blocks and potholes but nevertheless, a joy.

I remember the first time dressing up, putting on a wig, and contact lenses. How nervous I was of walking out of the changing room. How awkwardly I posed when taking photographs. How nervous I was to pose with other people.

What was most important to me though , is the values that I learnt from the cosplay world. Although many of the older generation think that cosplay is a waste of time, money and energy. It is not necessarily so. There are a lot of of things that I have gained and still many more to come. Here is what cosplay means to me.

It is not just that 7 things that cosplay taught me. There are plenty others such as responsibility, confidence, love, achievement, courage, originality, social, skills, and much much more.

All in all, it was a great year, and hope for a greater one to come. =)

I Cosplay To Express, Not Impress.

Cheers~

Lazy meh is...Lazy

Hello again aaaaaaaaaannnnddddd, yes, it took me awhile to come up with another new post. Well actually, I kinda forgot I even had a blog till I saw some link on my Facebook. Yeah, must be the age catching up to me *cough* (I'm just 19). Sometimes, I get this sudden urge to post something, and just put it off till the next day...yeah I'm gonna blame Mr. Procrastination. Yes...you. Mr. Procrastination. You're to blame. 

Wait....what?  Yeah, even I don't make sense to myself. Just another one of those random posts I guess. Maybe not? And the title? No idea really, it just sounded really good. Yeah, and before I forget....wait....

What was I gonna post again?

Think

Think...

Almost giving up....

BOOYAH!!!

ANDDDD, I remember. Right, so earlier this month, or more like end of last month, there was an event held at Sunway Pyramid Convention Center. It was ANIMANGAKI 2012. Well, the event was quite fun despite me being able to attend only on the 2nd day. 

It was held on the 25th and 26th of August 2012. There were cosplayers, cosplayers everywhere! All in all, the event gave friends a chance to meet up for a short period, fans to drool at awesome costumes, admire super fragile awesome props and the merchandises and activities available at the event. It was also a chance for people to whip out their camera and start snapping crazy shots and do some one on one photography session. Anyway, enough talking and more pictures eh? Like they say pictures, or it never happened.

And here you go people, some of the stuff on display =D

And here, you have, the cosplayers!

 And then, I'm not one to miss out but yeah, I did cosplay too =)
