I haven't updated my journal in a while. Last weekend was really busy for me! October 26 was Hetalia Day and made a come back to the panel as everyone's beloved Nini/China. It was really fun and I came to the event a bit late. I was amazed at the number of people who still attend Hetalia Day! I wasn't able to go last year because I became busy with the Animax Animates Competition. Though somehow the crowd gets younger and younger!

I think this year I had one of the best Hetalia Days ever. It was well organized hosted in an indoor venue with airconditioning. I'm so happy I handed down the reigns to such responsible kouhai. Though someone brought it to my attention that it looks like since I'm one of the original organizers left in HetaDay that I really was like China. Ahahaha So old! We had a panel that I really looked forward to and will link below!


Though I wish I was asked more questions haha the time felt so short!!! We came up with a new joke for Englands Eyebrows and he probably has full signal wifi all the time! #WifiBrows I feel like I made a lot of funny side comments despite not being asked a lot of questions and the inner fangirl in me was like RoChu I can sit beside Russia!!! 

This was probably my favorite question because it was all feels and I'd like to justify that China isn't usually so sad and would try to move on and be cheerful! Some people in the Audience cried and I was doing my best not to bawl from all the feels. 

This should be called living with the Asians cause we had our own little world on the side.

This was a bit hard for me to answer because I couldn't explicitly mention the Cultural Revolution, or the Opium war, and The Rape of Nanking. I really was about to cry back there though because of the history books I read and the grotesque images that came along with it. It just kinda all flashed in my head. Also because ah so much disdain from Hong Kong and Macau aaahh didn't quite know how to react to that.I hope I did justice with the words I picked.

This was so fun we just partied after and danced and ate food. OMG GLORIOUS FOOD. I didn't get to eat since I was in two panels and arrived late. So I'm eating in the dance video haha!!!

I looked pretty great in this video so you should all chekc it out also our Korea has awesome moves!

I'd love to thank everyone that came to Hetalia day it was amazing.

SNK PHOTOSHOOT! 

The day after I had to make haste since I was preparing for the SNK Photoshoot at Fernwood with :iconbehindinfinity: and co! I was really excited at how the photos came out and we had to work hard for some poses which I look forward to seeing soon! I'm glad that people so far like my portrayal of Armin. It was a big contrast to the previous day so I was really conscious about trying to cool down my usually hot and hyper aura. I'd love to reiterate I love my SNK cosplay group to bits because everyone's just perfect. We were more complete last Cosplaymania.

 I'll be uploading some photos I took myself soon and outakes so stay tuned! Or follow my page.

Maid 2 Travel

2 min read
This weekend I was hosting Maid2Travel with Melo "Maid Macho" Lazatin. It's a small event in Baguio organized by Team Gomen and I had much fun with :iconbehindinfinity: and the rest of the Tux Team,  Team Gomen, plus many other awesome people! If I had to name them all I'd run out of space OTL You know who you guys are anyway I tagged you on facebook. See more photos on my page! www.facebook.com/procrastacat

The event was really intimate and it was fun seeing people pay attention to the stage.They were really shy though but that's ok! I tried to do my best but I wasn'texactly at 100%. I thought Baguio I'd be rid of my allergies but somehow they were worse. Both me and my cohost were sniffly and somehow our throats got easily parched. DX  Not to mention I planned on doing a song and dance routine but I couldn't sing high notes in high altitude. I also messed up quite a bit with the lyrics. So on the second day I opted to dance but there was much shimapan flashing lol.

Oh right first day I cosplayed Ranka Lee's Kimono and on the second day I was a Maid. We also had shoots prior to the event. Expect new deviations from me soonforboth my cosplay and photography yay!

Oh also I got to surprise meet :iconmikeinel: I could not contain all my feels when I saw his name on the judges for the Art Contest on my program sheet. At the end of the event I sucked it up and approached him to ask for an autograph. I couldn't help but tear up and nearly cry cause I wasn't expecting him and his sister to be there.

He made a GIF of the encounter. fav.me/d62i2ok

Basically they're searching for a new VJ to co host with the lovely :iconblackmagealodia: I'm so delighted that I got through as one of the seven finalists! The competition is tough~! A dear friend of mine :iconmaronnecruz: is also a finalist. Do wish us some luck! I whole-heartedly am giving all of my nerdy passion and energy into creating a sincere and enjoyable atmosphere!
