Ye illustrious quote 2: And then... they totally did it! And it was so hot that if I had been there I would have been like... Aaaaaah yeeeeeeeah!
Writing situation: Finished second dissertation draft, am giving in a "Writing the Novel" Essay tomorrow and then will actually have some time to write, maybe, and I actually intend to use it for that purpose unles I start drawing instead.

From Friday to Sunday this week I have been at Minamicon! It was the first time I went and I really loved it! There were a lot of really great people there and we all had such a fun time! There was sushi making and kimono wearing and a maid cafe and all sorts of games and entertainments and snacks and a disco and a karaoke and of course cosplay and stuff! It was so amazing! I've already bought a ticket for next year because I really think it's worth it and I'm already looking forward to doing it all again.

It did get a little painful after a while because two nights in a row I walked all the way home because it was far too late for buses. I think it's about an hour walk... well, certainly if you're trudging after a full day of anime fun and excitable fan-like bouncing. I got a huge blister on my foot and my legs ached so much. Also my neck hurt for a little while after I headbanged so much to the heavier songs.

At the bring and buy I bought a Kadaj figure for only £7! That's bloody amazing!!! Also a little Sasuke plushie, which I bought for the soul purpose of strangling and torturing (I was Orochimaru). There was unusually only one Sasuke cosplayer and I kept threatening her across the room and strangling her and stuff. Ah, good times. I looked pretty cool as Orochimaru though all that white paint was such a pain. On the last day I went as Nekozawa complete with black cloak and Beelzenef puppet. I got a label sticker and put it on his chest with the words "THE GAME" on it so everyone I walked past lost. It was so funny!

Concerning Cosplay, I did intend to make a proper costume like I did that time with Yuna but my dissertation deadline prevented me. I'll get something ready early for next year and am now extra motivated by everyone else's amazing cosplays to resume my efforts at making a Lavi cosplay. There were some honestly amazing cosplayers there and I was soooo jealous. The masquerade was incredibly fun and I especially liked the comedy sketches and various amusing happenings that went on. I hope that me and my friends can put together something fun like that for next year.

Anyhow, I'm sorry, everyone, that I haven't been putting up a lot of work recently but dissertation has sort of been eating my life. Again, it's not that I'm not producing anything, it's just that I'm not FINISHING anything. I have a whole bunch of pictures that are sitting around in sketch form and just mot being coloured because that takes too much time. Hopefull some time soon I'll get around to finishing some of those and showing it to you beautiful people. I'm increasingly aware of my REceding popularity simply because I'm not that active on here anymore but I do keep checking here and answering your comments. My lack of stuff is only because I'd rather have something finished and good to show you, something that I can be proud of rather than just putting up pictures for the sake of putting up pictures. Quality is very important to me, after all. So, if you've read this far I guess it means you're one of the people who actually cares about what's going on with my life and my art... so I'd like to say a great big thank you for being patient with me.

*GLOMP!*
