2011.
haha.
i suppose i only do these things when i'm bored. would have been working on my costumes if the textiles were here, but i'm actually blogging about 2011.

hmmm. 2011 was a lot of stress, a lot of sleepless nights, a lot of disappointment.
i worked really hard for many things, but i've yet to reap what i sowed.

and then i watched a really awesome drama, where i fell in love with jung il woo *_* and now i'm watching another 3 dramas of his. i feel really bad for lee jun ki now, because jung il woo is such a spin-off of jun ki. korean army, why don't you release jun ki nowwwwwwwwww and let him star in more dramas so i can stop looking at his lookalike...!!!

and this was the part that got me so head over heels for jung il woo. this must be the best best kiss i've ever seen...!!! *press replay x100 times*



watching it somehow lifts my mood a little.

2012... i'm bringing you over!

"May your Christmas sparkle in the moonlight
Bathed in warmth of friends in sight
Love, peace and joy to give
on this wonderful day to believe."

did a cosplay for taiwan trip...

Photobucket

simple simple. my laogong did hongkong.

Photobucket

super cheap cosplay, and would have been cheaper if i didn't get the wig, which i didn't use in the end!!!!

i bought a cheongsam that was just around my office for $6.90 and modified it to a top.

Photobucket

then added the lace on the sleeves area

Photobucket

made the larger sleeves using materials i already have...

Photobucket

and here it is!

Photobucket

then i plucked some flowers from my mom's vase and colored it red (was purple initially)...

Photobucket

made some tassles out of the golden thread i have

Photobucket

and put them together!

Photobucket

wala! the skirt is from athena's. heh. photoshoot carried out in taiwan itself. epic!
taiwan (hetalia)shopping list

cheongsam: $6.90
wig: $35
gold lining 4 years: $1.80 x 4 = $7.20

total: $49.10
len (setsugetsuka)shopping list

len costume (tb): 438rmb = $105.44

didn't do much for this costume! just added lots of decor. was pretty much a costume i taobaoed. yes, this is my first bought costume! figured it saved more time and money to buy it straight than to search around for the textiles and make it.

so here's the reference picture and pv.

Photobucket

and then there's this really awesome group who cosplayed them before that was pretty inspiring to us. so we kinda followed their style

Photobucket

added the tassles (gold and red)

Photobucket

added the gold lace trims

Photobucket

styled the wig!

Photobucket

basically shuffed a chopstick+backcomb to make it stand then spam the hairspray. tied it together so it would come together as a clump. here's from the side

Photobucket

oh, i drew on those flowers too.

Photobucket
decided to repair a bit of synchronicity with the new acrylic cutter from zerar.

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

and also cut a new mask that better fits the face... if not it will look so flat! and spammed more jewels...

Copied the post from here!

“정”이란 대체 뭐 아시냐?
세상을 향이 묻습니다
나는 대답 할 것입니다
우리를 하야금 아무런 망설임 도 없이
삼과 죽음을 서로 허락하는거
그것이 바로 “정” 이라고

Romanization :
“Jeong”-iran daeche mwo asinya?
Sesangeul hyang-i mudseumnida
Naneun daedabhalgeosimnida
Urireul hayageum amureon mangseorim do eobsi
Samgwa jugeumeul seoro heorakhaneungeo
Geugeosi baro “Jeong”-irago.

Translation :
What on earth is “Love”?
I ask the World.
And I will answer…
That which make us unhesitatingly
Grant life and death to each other
That is what “Love” is.
