SHUSH DEAR

Tumblr can be such a pain to use. It's constantly working itself into all these problems! Right now, I really wanna post some crappy photo quality sketches of mine but the site's not responding. >:I I have lots of sketches that I really like but I don't feel like I'm not gonna immediately go ahead and edit to make them look more presentable in colour so I just use a camera rather than the scanner all the way in a downstairs office (so lazy~ =_=). Looks like I can't even post them on Blogger... Guess it kinda works out to be my fault for being so lazy or too much of a perfectionist in the end, huh? ^_^; How irksome.

It's happening again~

Well, I starting cosplaying! And it's an amazing experience! I got into the whole thing earlier this year when I went to the Supernova convention earlier this year in ordinary dress. And I felt so very left out... ;A;
SO, I set about trying to think of a cosplay until Animania hit. I went as Dawn from Pokemon. I must say though, Diamond and Pearl wasn't my favourite Pokemon series being the nostalgic person that I can be but I did like Dawn's character design even though her skirt was somewhat ridiculously short for a, what, 10 year old? Since this was pretty much my first ever cosplaying attempt and I have this sort of almost religious belief of a cosplay needing to have some hand-made quality to it, I put together the skirt from a normal skirt pattern with some tweaks of my own and worked out the hat from some beanie tutorials from some very wise people from deviant art. I needed a lot of help from my mother in following the pattern even though I have been attending textiles studies classes in school, though truthfully, they were teaching the same things as they did 2 years earlier when I when I was at the school.

Mein Gott, (I love that song!) I'm procrastinating so much right now when I should be writing my SOSE essay... I have hardly any self discipline left in me and it feels terrible. I'm stopping now.
