I'm feeling like cosplaying again. I've joined the cosplay lab and have even picked out what I want to make.
It's decided.
Virginia from Wild Arms 3.
Though I named her Hanna. V is such a yucky name.
There are a few problems with this whole Cplaying thing though... I really can't sew well. I've made a couple circle skirts and some leggings(which were too big and I ending up making a few of myself infront of old men in the arcade when I attempted DDR with them on; I don't think I'll be going back soon). Then aside from clothes, I can only make things without patterns.
Second problem. I live in Nowhere New York. NY has two convention listings and they are both over a zillion miles from Nowhere.
Third problem. No money.
Fourth. Even if I somehow got to one and a fairy dropped off something via UPS for me to wear, I wouldn't be able to be there alone. This leads to
Fifth. If the fairy got me a 'stume, whoever I went with(alone isn't allowed) I probably wouldn't know, or has just randomly stumbled onto the earlier week who decided to take me along. Strangers and strange places - Not allowed.
(I'm making this sound like there are strict rules on me. Not really. It's mostly common sence. But... I do like to be adventurous.)
But you know what? I get nervous when I think about getting up there on stage and showing off my costume. "What pose could I strike?" I get butterflies. Silly me. "My costume doesn't look as good as others...." How depressing.
So... I guess I'll have to do what I've-- no... That won't work either. My friends are moving, some to other countries. Guess we can't have the halloween cos/DDR this year. How lame and uncool.
Haha.. Emily was so awesome. Hydrogen atom... what a blast.
So tell me, what do I do now?

you should do it anyway. even if you never got to show anyone else, the fact that YOU know that you can make something that you are impressed with, will definately boost your self esteem. and even if it's not perfect? well, it was a good first try.
you should be a fashion designer. or an astronaut. or you know, something in between.
