late post is late

totally meant this for last weekends post, which I did post up on my LJ lolz. but copy and paste.

lol, I never have cute little entries like [info]lemontree11 XDD;; mine are always so....BLARGH JUST POST ALREADY type of deal hahahah its ok. Its all just for my own personal memories anyways but I always think aesthetics are important hahahaha. Anyways, gosh, I havent updated in a awhile that didnt include a rant with it XD:;;

So I guess lets get started lol.

At a last minute decision I decided to attend the 6% Doki Doki event in LA >:D aka the Sweet Streets 2 Art Gallery. So many magnificent artwork and I got to meet Irene Yuen aka Loooo >:D who did the wonderful photograph of Julie and Ari Honey >333
Unfortunately, I was retarded and arrived late D': me and N got caught up in Little Tokyo and had to run back to her place to finish getting everyone ready hahaha. But lets back track~ before that, I spent a good portion of my morning at Glendale's Galleria and at Borders.

I didnt quite get a full body pic of what I was wearing, coz. well, I just failed at it. I was watching Kami Kaze girls the night before and was inspired to wear a red Tartan dress and do twin tails for once.(the coordination was inspired by Momoko's red dress and twin tail combo during the pachinko portion of the movie) Omfg yes its a first >D;; and omg.....so many people said 'ogneornhsoeih it doesnt look like you!' yeah o_Ol dont worry, it was quite as awkward and shocking for me too.


whoo, green contacts (I dontknow why I didnt wear brown ones instead)
and lassssheess XD (I can now see why people said it looked like Misa, the green contacts probly did it)

here some pics from the Gallery~ more of the pics are on my myspace and facebook (facebook.com/dearx207)






Shrinkle! >:D



I believe she was one of the shop girls for the DokiDoki >D
she was sooo cute and super nice *__*
she called me a cute ojousan~ im like LOLZ
first time I've ever heard that but I surey hope its not the last HAHAHAHA


I got to meet the designer as well, he was quite nice. I should have dressed more colorful, but its ok. I felt like everyone and their mom that was there was dressed in Lolita. Hahaha, there were so many AP girls there. I'm sure PMX will simply be flooding of them. But I met a few nice lolitas there :D I kinda wished I had asked for their LJs too /: mebe I'll run into them at pMX?!
I'm kinda happy, haha despite how busy I am, it just simply means life is picking itself up together again and simply doing things. Haha.



Toshi totally wanted that jacket. Haha.


I didnt get to take alot of picture since it was poor lighting. The event was packed, there were so many people there it made being inside quite warm! I also met new people and caught up with some people as well who I've lost track with!

THe best part of the event was. 1. I got to try out a new look HAHA 2. I got to meet a super cutie! >3 I hope to abuse em for future photoshoots too >:Dhahahah (i'm such a creeper, I just approach people and want to just attack them and dress them up lol and yeaaaah)

this entry feels kinda rushed. I'm tired but I feel like I should blog about it nonetheless!

Next weekend, I go back to LA again! To go shoping at the fashion district and the following week, I'm BACK again!! >DDD hahaha for the X Japan concert! >:D I hope to see lil cutie there hahahha. I got totally giddy when I got a reply from them on FB and I was just so ecstatic that they agreed to do some modeling for me. OH JOOOOY >:DDDD

I totally forgot to mention, I suck major balls coz I totally missed my morning train from the Glendale station by 1 minute! the train was EARLY and LEFT EARLY i'm like WTFFFF I normally leave form Union Station but I decided why not the Glendale one since my friends apartment is so much closer there?! omgosh xD I had to catch the following one which was 2 hrs later, but its ok. HAHAHA. But man, I was super tired and the train ride was just barely bearable! the train is normally NOT PACKED but when I went, omfg, preteens, kids and teenagers. =3=lll
there was this preteen kid who was at the other side of me, who kept catching glances at me and this 2 other punk girls who looked like they were in HS, they were totally loud and obnoxious. Gosh D': I had my shades on the entire time ubt yeah I couldnt help but keep catching the girl sneak glances at me or just stare at my direction, I'm like...wtf....seriously. I tried to go to sleep and ignore them but wow it was just an annoying ride! =3=ll

then when I got back to SD, I had to drag my damn duffel bag a good distance down the parking lot since I had parked my car WAAAAY down over at overnight parking. Jesssuuss I should have learned my lesson when I went to Salt Lake. PACK ROLLER BAGS. But the only roller bag I have is a huge one. So I'm going to make it a point that when I go to the fashion district next weekend to pick up a medium sized one for when I travel to cons andetc that doesnt quite require a LARGE roller bag >:D and I can finally trash my duffel bag, the very same onee I got and broke during Cosmo school - which I just stitched up together hahahaha xD;;

I'm quite excited for the X Japan concert but dont know what to wear! Hoping I ind something at the fashion district or find fabric to make an outfit nd I gotta start making outfits for future fashion shows, PMX and ALA >_O I'm still debating if I'll have time to make Taiga from Tora Dora as well! /:

but yeah as soon as I got back to SD, my friend blows up my phone and wanted to go to Downtown, I was already pretty exhauted at that point but forced myself to go anyway since I dont really have anywhere to go /: (cant go back to grandmas till its nightfall) so I went to downotwn with her and walked around for a bit. didnt really see anything I liked /: but heres pictures anyways! :D


this is the outside building of Urban Outfitters.



Oh hillcrest, ever the artsy fartsy part of Downtown San Diego.

I realized no matter how much I am jealous of Los Angeles where everything is happening there, I still probably would like to come back to Sd at the end of the weekend. Lol. iunno. Hahaha. I dont mind the city but sometimes its nice to get out every once in a while.

but yeah, we went inside urban outfitters, I can never really find anything I'd like to particularly WEAR from that shop but I do like staring at their novelty items :D
like as....HEADPHONES. coz I'm a sucker for them!


candy earphones. TOTALLY WANT D': I really wanted the bubble gum hahaha but in Little TOkyo they had the rillakuma ones, but I still had headphones, so I decided to forego getting another pair despite the buy 1 get 1 free promo and these were $10. But just my luck, this afternoon at work. I BREAK my headphones =3=;; (they were cheap anyway, I keeep the skulll candy DJ ones at home) So I went to Ross to try and find these or something similar coz I've seen them carry these at Ross before for $6. To no avail, they didnt have the candy ones or the skull candy ones. BUT! I did find THESE:


ROSE SHAPED EARPHONES. FUCKYEAH XDDD HAHAHAHHA. Dork. LOl. Given a choice, I'd be using Audiotechs, but its oks~ these are snazzy lol.

I kinda really want an itouch. no. Need. I've been needing to update my music player for years now. I'm still using Yepp by Samsung /:

speaking of music. I'M IN LOVE WITH 2NE1'S NEW ALBUM :DDD fuuucckkk yeaaah CL you are my girlidoncrushlady xDDDD she is so fierce :3

but yeah oh gosh, there were more stuff we did at downtown but I'm just so tired at this point now, I dont think I can even stay up to watch the new episode to High School of the Dead. I might go ahead and just edit this post tomorrow to add more to it.

So much going on @.@ and I am behind on my studies. HAHAHHA. pooo~ but the business is going along just fine. Theres so much more projects toooooo

lulz pervy mangas

this post will be completely and utterly retarded and unrelated to anything irl thats more importantly happening.
but who cares.
I just blew $25 on pervy mangas LOL xD my friend works in Borders and got me a discount on some mangas. I normally dont like buying mangas anymore when you can pirate them lulz, even though onemanga is down there are ways around everthing xD
but Zone-00 is one of those mangas that I cant simply 'pirate' because I can.LOL. Shin bought vol.1 before and I got into it, I bought vol.2 but I decided to give him vol.2 to keep him busy on the plane to Okinawa. But lo and behold xD hes not coming back ROFLMAO that means fuck you cant buy vol. 3-4 and not have 1 and 2! So I ended up getting em xD;;


lololol. pervy manga readings at work~ lol, I seriously dont BUY mangas anymore but then i realized mangas are one of those things you can always reread again and again /: too bad Book Off doesnt carry Zone-00 TAT but then again, I think I'd rather buy em new /:

and I also got a pad/notebook thingie from Morning Glory, its a pad of letter paper? I guess thats the best way to describe it? I normally write letters using ripped notebook paper xD yes, coz I'm ghetto that way LOL! I was trying to avoid getting something 'uberly' cute /:
and this was as close as I could find xD and the ones at Dollar Tree are just epic fail. LOL. So if I got any from Dollar Tree,I'm better off using notebook paper HAHA


but seriously, fail that no one ever writes anymore /: everyones spoiled by emails and etc, Ilike emails for their convenience and cheapness but. Its....so bland D: and I like hand written letters more since its more...personal? and I think its always NICE to receive something in the mail - other than stuff you've bought online and are anxiously awaiting for xD

I always make it a point to carry stamps with me :3 just not envelopes. But stamps for post cards. Too bad it requires 3 freakin' stamps just to send a letter to Okinawa! D:

AX Photodump 2 - Host Style - Black Heaven 1

Spontaneous Ikemen/host style photoshoot featuring Toshi.
I dont recall which night we took these pics, most likely I think it was day 2 at night. All the shots were mostly take at the JW Marriot Lounge.
Gaaaawd I'm in love with that hotel xD;; the lounge mostly. They didnt have a good variety in drinks, but im sure the club/2nd lounge must have has more.

hehe.







some guy had left a glass of water there, and we decided to well...hijack his table after he left
this was all quite spontaneous coz I dont remember what the hell we were doing exactly that spawned this.





Ithink we both were wearing Geo Green Nudy Circle Lenses xD
or was she wearing blue? o_Oll the blue ones were def. not nudy though....hmm....
iunno, I dont recall xD


this is why i LOVE LOVE LOVED that damn LOUNGE it had EPIC floors xD which provided for epic lighting <3 src="http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m19/crusifythelove/Black%20Heaven/DSC02932copycopy.png" alt="" width="400">
We kept trying to find a Hot Girl to try and pose with he rbut we couldnt find one TAT

I think halfway through the night we decided we'd settle for a pretty gay boi too /:







These photos were taken I believe...hmm...Day 3 at night?
We were waiting for Mei to come back from CPK to do the last bit of her Macross Frontier
Date Sheryl x Alto photos.

and this time, we were alittle bit more prepared / aka Toshi had actually prepped a proper outfit this time around haha

OutfitBreak Down:

Red shirt - Sex Pot Revenge [Tokyo Rebel]
Tie - Sex Pot Revenge
Pants - I believe the pants were non branned.

Blazer - this was my biggest purchase at the con other than the tablet.
Its by Deorart.


The poloroids were taken with my new Fuji Instax polaroid camera :D
And we took a bunch of shots of her with the Polaroid to use as props
We got a booklet of magazine clippings from her friend at CPK
and we decided to use the magazine clippings as guides to help us on this shoot.













blarrrghhhh I attempted to make cake....then....





I've been craving FUNFETTI cake forevaaaah. Well, mostly alot during the weekend. /: so I finally went out and got some cake mix during my break. Dundundunnnnnsss

I wanted to try and do a 2 layer tier cake :D coz their rounnnnndsss

but....



clearly I got too excited D: and decided to flip one of the cakes over too early TAT and yeaaaaahhhhhh dissasssstteeerrr
atleast I stopped my excitement before I attacked the 2nd layer D: thats ok, I guess it'll just remain as a 1 layered cake then xDDD;; oh me, oh my. HAHAHA.

AX Photo Dump

LOL. I cant believe i havent done a photo dump yet from the photos I took from AX! :D I didnt take alot of pics of other people /: I wanted to, but I didnt do much of it.

So heres a random dump of cosplayers I found at AX and I will post photoshoot pics in a bit :D


Toshi at the Hi-Chew booth. Haha. yeah she spent the entire drive down from stockton penning her arm.



by far one of my fav. pics the entire weekend. its very candid
and I just love how it captures her sleeve pretty well.
I think I took this while we were waiting for [info]pinkuku


my 2nd favorite haha. 'HIGH VOLTAGE'
small pics are small since I dont want it to kill peoples websites! Xd
All the rest of the photos are up on my tumblr and Flickr.
sometimes flickr is a bitch. So I have more on DA as well.








Magnet Vocaloid cosplays <3



Toshi in our Eager Love Revenge Vocaloid Cosplay
lol and as always I wont post pictures of me xD coz it was just fail haha



Brenda in her AP dress(?)
fabulous as always




She made such a cute Ciel D<
someday D< ill make that red outfit.
once again, proof that you dont have to azn to look good in cosplay /:



Alex and Brian of SCARLET ANTIDOTE
awesome as always!!!


everyone ad their mom took pics of this Yoko.
I think I lost track of how many Yoko's there was at AX.
Too bad she didnt have the riffle?


He kinda reminded me of Hayabusa or Hayate
but then again I just wasnt sure LOL



no convention is complete without the cat girls








I still hold a soft stop for a few good Death Note Cosplayers.
I really liked how this girl pulled Misa Misa well.
Then again, it really doesnt take much? but sitll, she looked good as Misa-chan :D



DUNGEON FIGHTERS :D
all they were missing is their FIGHTER!
oh man I remember spending countless HOURS playing DF with Shin oAo
I'd probably still be playing it now if it wasnt for the damn level cap


cute mage from Dungeon Fighters is cute <3

(I probably sound like a creepy man cameko LOL to anyone who is reading my BLOG
and not knowing that secretly I'm a female?XDDDD)


ZONE-00
the Benio was cute :D
iunno, I'm sure shin would have a different opinion otherwise.....


cosplay paparazzziiiii

I wish I had more guts to talk to these girls and have had invited them to do a private shoot
too bad I was wondering around the convention day 3 waiting for the rest of my group to get together
/: and I guess I'm not really comfortabl going up to random cosplayers to pull them aside for photos too much
yet. Iunno. I feel like for some reason, FEMALE photographers arent as respected
as their male cameko counters parts? DD: iunno.
I do feel like there are better male photographes out there TAT

I'm not too comfortable doing CONVENTION shoots, mostly because LAX just SUUUCKS for at-con-photos
/:

gaaah! -sigh-
anyways moving on :D


Noelle Vermillion of Blazblue~
they had a whole group with them but they were....everywhere /:


I cut/styled his wig for him~ :DDD
yayers, excited for our photoshoot in the mountains in the next couple weeks :D
and I keep trying to avoid doing anymore Naruto photos LOL! bu it cant be helped...
