Okay, so maybe the aching body, more-than-"bandaged-bruised"-arms and the super dry face was worth it. But I'll have all my second thoughts about the BellHair. Oh yes, it's back, and it's quite fierce with revenge. My poor scalp has been prodded with wire, hairpins and string...My arms were injured just by wearing bandages, and I sweated to death today.

And any idea why I've braved these wonderful "challenges"?

YES THE AFA WAS TODAY!~~~ As I said, I cosplayed Aoyagi Ritsuka aka Loveless. Kouga Yun really is awesome la. Denise's awesome Tohsaka Rin (Fate Stay Night) cosplay won her MANY, MANY photographers. HuiMin, Elaine did Misa from Death note. ^ ^ Dione and Chaice did cat ears, with the former parading the ones I made for Denise with her amazing height. Uh, even Ja Yang wore cat ears. XD

Paiseh EDIT: Ashley did Rhode Camelot from D-Gray Man. And she DID kill me.

For the record, the Misa's weren't blonde. ¬_¬ Butbut I got jumped (in my Ritsuka costume) by TWO Soubi's today. O_O I admit those...er, men...were excellent cosplayers...but. I was damn freaked out. Either way, life as a cosplayer is good. XD Right Denise? Live like a celeb.

THE MAID CAFE WAS SO COOL MAN. We were served by...Yoshimi-chan. XD She called me お嬢ー様 (Ojou-sama. ) Which made me feel so darn cool. But honestly, what I really wanted to show was the rules outside the cafe. Things like "do not ask for or give the maids any contact numbers" and "do not ask the maids when their shift ends within the cafe" and such. ^ ^ Gotta love the pink establishment.

Oh, and I bought a doushinji today from Kuroshitsuji. The awesome (yes, awesome) Anthology made Dione bleed a box-of-tissues worth of blood. Alongside, I also bought Vampire Knight 9 & 10 for myself cos it was 6.70 and considerably cheap. Comparing it to the usual 8.50...Well, just pretend you bought it for full price and then say you got into the convention free as you buy more things at discounts. Whoohoo!

Ohoh and the professional Kuroshitsuji cosplay group showed up. AWESOME Madame Red dress, well admired from afar. To see both the female and regular Ciel together made it look like siblings appeared out of nowhere. Sebastian = KAKOI! *coughcough* oh and I saw Maverick there too, in the Orange Naruto getup. Woah.

There was also this really cool girl singing the Lucky Star song, and she was good. Pitch, and the pronunciation was pretty spot on. Followed up on the karaoke was a guy I'd rather have worn earplugs for the entire duration of. > <>

Out of all the events on the main stage, I only caught the one of the Cosplay Championships and the Animax Cosplay Make-Up. O_O Both were something I didn't end up staying for...butbut we went Figma shopping instead! Ernest bought the Kyon and Konata figures...and I don't even want to know what Denise bought, cos that Otaku spent EVERYTHING SHE HAD, MAN .___.

(On a side note, Dione's mum, Dione and I agree Otaku House next door in Suntec City made alot of money from people who wanted to get in free.)

Live Art Demonstrations! PHOTOSHOP ARTISTS ARE AWWWWSHUUUUUM. They did all their posters live and I dunno if they printed them out later, but the Bleach ones were the best. You know, SOTA contributed to it too! They did little mannequins with smallsmallsmall doll clothes. Very impressed ^ ^) .

Aside from the AFA -- Chaice's cupcakes are great. YAY CHEESE. Thanks to Ed, Ceph and JY for coming and being such sports. (Cat ears lah, can?) WE SHALL BULLEH YOU ALL. I WILL FIND A PINK FRILLY APRON OF SOME SORT AND AN AKATSUKI KAIN WIG. *hurhur*

Okay I'm satisfied.
