Celebs and Cosplays~ XD

i recently came across a certain forum asking which celebrity is suited to cosplay which character..

lol..kinda interesting thread...

there were many........like...Ayumi Hamasaki would be the perfect Sheryl Nome (which, i agree too) and also Gackt as Genesis...LOL..

really interesting and it really made me think....

WHO WOULD MAKE THE BEST SANZO?

isn't he a HAWTIE?! XD

well, this was a fairly simple quiz to me..

no one could beat him as sanzo..

yes, he is non other than......

HIDEAKI TAKIZAWA aka TACKEY

*rabu rabu*

(lol..shall we scream now?)

KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA~~~~~!!!!!<3

okay....this is basically 2 in 1..LOL...

my FAV character of all time.....and my FAV male artist of all time.......

this would be my dream cosplay idol.......(nah, not even kaname could beat him as sanzo....LOL)

SO, WHO IS YOUR CELEB-COSPLAY IDOL? XD

p/s...ok..so i was bored...needed some inspiration...LOL...

Where do they get all those KA CHING?!?!?!

okay, i was lurking around figure.fm and i found this category on loot..Lol..didn't really know what's that at first, but i kinda got hooked.

but i was just wondering...

WHERE THE HECK DO THESE PEOPLE GET ALL THOSE $$$$$$ from!?

shit, the way they are collecting those figurines and merchandices, it looks as if they are earning at least RM8000 or so per month!!

i mean...just look at this!!

*disclaimer, not mine..i got this pic off figure.fm*

AND THIS!

*also not mine, but AWED at the amount*

seriously, how the heck does one get all the money to spend that much?

i have soooooooooooooo many figurines lined up to be purchased, but i often let my dream go because financially i can't afford to buy them ALL.

I can only pick, and sometimes hesitate, only to let them go out-of-stock when i finally want to get them..T^T

OH, did i mention? those photos, are their loot for 1 month....

HECK...1 month!!

to me, that is my 1 year collection....not a mere 1 month..!!

these collectors are really amazing and man....they are worthy of the title collector.

(btw, wait till you see the room category.....it scared the living daylights out of me.....after looking at their collection, i find that I AM JUST A NOOB...a lower than NOOB collector..LOL)

Oh...on a sidenote...

I GOT MY NIKE ZOOM ORANGE SPORT SHOES ALREADY..!! XD XD

retail price was RM279, but lol..i got it for RM200..

(THE POWER OF HAGGLING!!!!) WOHOOOo..!!

i call him, ORANGY-kun

and previously, i went out with my mom..and i fell victim to another pair of heels...

LOL.....my mom was actually 'encouraging' me to get those heels because she could then purchase her shoes for 10% off (because Nose is giving out a recyclable bag for every RM60 purchase and above...and coincidentally my pair of heels was RM69.90...so she kinda 'used' me..LOL)

GOLDY!!! *pika pika desu*

so yeah, all those bickering about overspending....PFFt....LOL..

(hey, i'm allowed to at least get something with my Bonus rite?)

and YES, i have shoe fetish.....i collect shoes....i think i have more than 8 pairs of heels, 5 pairs of boots and well...lol...don't really knwo the exact number, but i'm expanding my empire..LOL!

OH, while i'm at it.....here's a look at my 2010 workstation...

not much changes, but i did add some figurines there for 'inspirations'.

(had to sketch some mascot, but there were nothing to look at for inspirations...so i had to bring my babies from home..LOL)

lol..my colleague said those 'aesop fabled-gundam-chibis' looked like CAKES!

The little female Tieria sitting on the top (like Cleopatra LULZ!) is from my secret santa session last year....GOSH I LOVED IT SO MUCH!!!! XD

Since my nendos are in the office already, my room is kinda empty....

i'll need to fill the 'gap'....and hmmm....my birthday is around the corner..

*hints hints*

Money Management SETTLED~!

okay, previous post was all about OH NOES and OH GODS and OH FUCKS...
this post, well....finally managed it well...

looks like i have to postpone my buying of the iMac even further than i expected it to be.
Most prob instead of April, i'll have to get it only after July or August. (yes, i know, shit happens..^^)

So, thinking of it that way gives my brains to breathe...I mean, it's not as if my bank account is sucked dry because of my spending....i still have savings....
but you know humans...it'd kill for a big lum sum of money just to go poof......

i guess i'm that human...
i can't bare to see my bank account be sucked dry for my iMAC...
so i guess i'm going to save up enough so that i can still spend for other stuffs after buying my iMac...

take things slow.....
i think my main spending was all on shoes and figurines....
i spent RM188 of figurines last month....and well, i'm about to spend another RM200 on another set of pvc figures. (GAHHh..this had gotta stop!!!)
but i just can't resist...
like the other day (or rather this afternoon...SEE?! TOLD YA I CANT RESIST!) i saw miroku's figurine, and also kagome...THOUGH, i was rather sad to see Sesshoumaru's and Inuyasha's sold out....T^T (but can't really blame la..i only recently got hooked with Inuyasha)
ANYWAY~~~
each figurine was priced at RM148...IN WHICH, i don't find it REALLY expensive...in fact, it's affordable for a figurine.....
BUT...with that amount of money, i could invest in a good mattress for my new house, a new working table for my new room...and well....i could save up that for my iMAC...

but you know shopaholics.......they sometimes let stupidity take over their rational values..LOL..
oh well, let's see if i could hold back from purchasing more figurines?
(and pay day is just around the corner.......can i be stern with myself?!!??!)

oh..on a sidenote...
GACC CONVOY...PLEASE UPDATE ME ON WHO IS GOING.....
MY CAR CAN ONLY FIT 5 PEOPLE MAX..
SO PLEASE NOTIFY ME EARLIER SO I CAN MAKE NECESSARY PLANS...

Money Management

Fuck it....
my credit card statement arrived today, and when i saw it....it scared the shit out of me.....
really, as in...i could detoxify with the amount of shit scared out of me....
i didn't know i overspent that much on december....

FUCK!! there goes my Nike sport shoes....and my iMAC...
FUCK FUCK FUCK..!!!!!

the only way to counter this is to NOT bring the credit cards out ANYMORE...
which is why i'm leaving them AT HOMe now.....
Not gonna bring those devil cards ANYMORE.....

and the best part?
my mom was laughing at me while i was whinning around.....seriously, i told her not to laugh, and she laughed even louder...
i was like ..WTF?!?!?!
I'm in a fucking predicament now and all you could do is laugh!??!
what, you wan me to declare bankruptcy?!?!!?!??
ARGHhhh..!!!!

LIKE...FINALLY!!! sheesh~

FINALLY, for the love of god....the commitees finally announced the date and venue of GACC...
and surprise surprise.....it's the same place again..

Date : 20th & 21st March 2010
Venue : MMU Melacca

OKAYy...now for the pop quiz...
WHY THE HECK DID THEY KEEP IT SECRET IF IT'S THE SAME FREAKING PLACE AGAIN!?
not that i have encountered any problems going to this event, but i just do not understand why they kept the details a secret when people asked.

oh well......since the event dates and venue has been announced, i guess i'll let it go....

now, the next question....WILL THERE BE ANY SEIYUU APPEARANCE THIS TIME?
last year DaiCon had Chihara Minorin......and left GACC stale with no seiyuu appearance.
i wonder if this year's GACC will be another normal event?

Oh well, May'N will be having her tour on march as well, so i guess it covers up for the non-seiyuu appearance....(though, i still hope ishida akira will come..^^ *prays*)

Listening to : May'N - Paranoia
Mood : Sleepy...

MAY'N in Malaysia~!

HOLY MOTHER OF ALL ACG CONCERTS..!!

MAY'N is finally having concert in Malaysia.!!! 

(lyke, finally Malaysia gets some entertainment....)

i hope i will be able to attend this concert..

i mean, SHITSSSs.....SHERYL SINGING LIVE?!?! come on...and the best part is that it's in Malaysia..

WOOT?!?!?!

i've already missed her AFA's performance...i don't think i wanna miss this performance now.....

7th March isn't that far away, and if GACC is not announcing any crap soon, i think i might give GACC a miss for this concert...

how often do you get someone whom you really like coming to conservative little malaysia to have a concert?

(i doubt Lady Gaga would get her chance here....T^T)

anyway, here's the dannychoo.com info.

For Cosplay, For Passion

" If you think in rational terms, it's difficult to comprehend the motivation of the growing contingent of Cosplayers.
To get into costumes, and in so doing, allows their lives to revolve around what remains to be, an ostracized subculture.

They are not motivated by financial reward, of which there are little.
Perhaps not by fame, because that is limited as well.

Cosplayers are prepared to endure sacrifices of time and money, and even respect from their societies, to be part of something they consider larger than themselves, a community that shares in their passion, and a movement that brings color to the cultural landscape. "

This is quoted from a youtube video i saw regarding cosplays and cosplayers in Japan.
Somehow, i feel that Japan ISN'T really accepting this cosplay culture as well as that of America, Singapore and heck, even Malaysia.

In Malaysia (or the few mentioned countries above), we all are able to dress up and prep everything from our homes or hotels. Yes, we may get some weird stares but still people will know that it's Cosplaying (or rather, some costume parade LOL)

In Japan, they'll get weird stares and the police might even appear. I guess it's not really Cosplay Haven in Japan either.

But, Cosplaying, like what was quoted above, surpasses all and as long as there is passion, i feel that this Hobby will, in time, be accepted by the society.

To me, cosplay is a hobby, a method in life, for me to express myself. I admit, i AM an Otaku.
I do it mainly for passion, for the fun of it. (well, which explains why i NEVER enter any competition...i only helped out skits, but NEVER entered..LOL)
Yeah, if people acknowledge my efforts, that'd be a bonus...i'm already happy enough that event go-ers knows what character i'm cosplaying (shows that i didnt screw up..haha)

I have friends asking me when i'll quit this hobby of mine...Seriously, i simply don't know. I would go on with this hobby of mine until the day my flames of passion dies. (let's hope it's not in the near future)
The people i met, the friends i made, the experience i went through during my 6 years of cosplay is simply marvelous, exciting and well, doki doki~~! XD

So.......
For Cosplay, For Passion. *toast glass*

Listening to : Lady GaGa - Telephone
Mood : Passionate? LOL...

What's with the secrecy!?

Seriously, i do not understand organising commitees nowadays.
An event date is meant to be released as early as possible, and same goes for it's venue so that people can plan and do the necessary arrangement before it's too late....

I understand that it's one of the most looked forward to events of the year, but hey, if you release the dates and venue too late (or rather hold it secret), then what's the point of the whole thing?
Go ahead and keep your secrets of your cosplay plans or whatever, i don't even care a single bit what you're cosplaying......but come on, what's the rational in keeping the venue and dates in secrecy?!

Try to understand, not many are locals...so we'll have to hunt for hotels...
Not all are students......so we working people will have to apply for our leaves....
and it's not easy getting it......
OKAY, even if some of us are students, then it'll take some time to convince our parents to let us go OUTSTATION for some event...

With all these issues, i really don't understand what they are thinking....and maybe i never will..
i'm sure that they have already confirmed a date...i wouldn't mind if they mentioned that the venue is not confirmed yet......
an event that big-a-scale, if the dates are not confirmed, then......i'm speechless...
same goes for the venue.....at least notify people which venue they are currently looking at, that way we could still scout around for possible hotels/accomodations..

PFFt....and i thought that are already experienced.....sad case..

Listening to : Lady GaGa - Bad Romance
Mood : Cranky....

WANTED!!

okay, there are 3 things in my life now that i desperately want..LOL....

first, is the iMAC..okay, that one..desperate also no use...T^T...

no money, no talk....(trying to earn and save now..somehow, it's kinda hard to save up to RM6K....GAHh...)

Just look at the beauty of the machine~~<3

Secondly?

well, it's not really desperate, but i kinda need a pair of running shoes..

LOL....and the one i had my eye on is the pair from Nike...

the Sisters-One+ series...

but yeah, it costs a bomb, so....|||oTL

(i think this limited edition series is RM599 ...T^T)

expensive much...but SO CUTE.....><;;;

OKAYY..this range is A LI'L above my budget...but still....well, hoping for discounts now...T^T...

Well, this one is RM399....GAHHh....expensive, but i love it so so much ><;;;

I saw another one, kinda well ventilated, and it's RM279..well, kinda expensive, but i'll have to see how much i get for my bonus, THEN only i'll decide whether or not to get it.....

Though, i'd prefer to get the limited edition RM599 one....(unless someone gives me the winning lottery ticket...LOL, otherwise i think that's a FAR OFF WISH...T^T)

NEXt, well......it'd be great if i had a 1.6 meter teddy bear..LOL..

yeah, i still have that addiction....

I've been looking at a few threads in lowyat.net that are selling them....

1.6meter brown bear = RM175

SO CUTE...!! imagine how well it'll look when i place it in my new home....

Awwwww......cute deshou? lol...

HMM....ok, the last one...(i know i mentioned 3, but but but.....^^;;;)

i need a purse....my current one is breaking apart.......

NO NO, it's not that i have a lot of moneySSSSS...

a lot of receipts, and useless cards.....and demon cards aka credit cards...

SO...they say if you wish hard enough, you'll get what you want...

so....*WISH REALLY REALLY HARD*

Mood : GAh...still sick..=_=

what a way to start the year....

Wow, i really salute myself..yes, i salute myself to be able to STILL type this crap.
well, you see....for the past few weeks, i haven't been able to rest really well....(cosplays and stuffs, snorings of others at night, going to penang, AGAIN snoring of others at night, etc etc...)

and what happens when a person lacks rest?
YES, they fall sick...as simple as that...!

my body finally gave in.....i thought it was just a simple flu that will come and go...
WHOA, was i wrong....
this is sort of a 70% blown flu.....(nope, not H1N1...the symptoms does not match..be at ease..)

i first started to feel like shit on Sunday Morning, yes...one day before i officially go back to work..
(irony rite? no work, not sick.....start work...start sick...WTF?!?)
but i just brushed it aside thinking that the weather was sucky..and proceeded to go on an outing with my cousin to KLCC...
WHOA, when i reached home, i started to feel even worse....but i still didn't care much...coz i thought, well...maybe i just needed sleep...

the 'storm' came on Monday morning....my voice changed, my nose began to fill and my head began to feel heavy.
STILL, i thought it's just my body being lazy for my first day of work for the new year.
i finally accepted the fact that i was sick when i started sneezing non stop on tuesday.

at first, i wanted to go see the doctor for MC, but feeling that i had to complete my work in the office, i decided against it....
IF, tomorrow i'm still feeling shitty, yes..no more procrastinating anymore....
i'll go see the doctor...and hopefully he'll give me an MC for my shitty condition...=_=

What a way to start the year....(with virus and bacterias...WOhoo..my newly found friends!)

HELLO 2010 - part 2

YEAP...it's HAPPY NEW YEAR part 2..!!

gah, there were lots of bittersweet feelings when i ushered in the new year this time around.
First, yea...i went clubbing...haha...one of my first clubbing countdowns ever...haha..(though, we didn't ACTUALLY counted down.....it's more like... 

OH...!! Fireworks!! 

*takes up glass* 

HAPPY NEW YEAR PEEPS!!! 

*kampai!* 

ANYWAY, stayed on till 5am only i 'touched down' at home...and the result..LOL...

i started my new year's morning listening to my mom 'singing' her crow song.... 

AIYA....meaning she scolded/yelled/went ballistic on me la...LOL.... 

well, basically it wasn't my fault...i DID report to her what i was doing.....

it's just that the phone lines were all jammed up....
and to go back immediately after clubbing is like walking on a death rope.....

coz you never know when there'll be road blocks... 

(and to top it off, i had a bottle of half drank vodka in my car...=_=) 

and the following day, i woke up at 4pm...

WOhoo.....me and my cousin sorta had luteanner....(lunch + tea + dinner) all at the same time..haha. 

and what did we do that day? 

well, we marathoned movies again....LOL.. 

we saw 'Cloudy with a Chance for Meatball' (or sumthing like that) and ' Hotel for Dogs'
and later that night, we continued on with America's Next Top Model....LOL...(we get to see bitches fighting over beds, makeups, attention...yadda yadda yadda...) 

well, nothing much after that, we went to KLCC the next day and splurged on clothes in MNG and japanese magazines in Kino..(ok, that's just me..) 

OHHHh..and we had Starbucks TWICE!!!! once for lunch, and the later for Tea..(gosh...silent night taste marvelous..LOL...all those choco..!!) 

and well, what happened now? 

yeap....back to work....

and somehow, my body started to retaliate... 

i am falling sick now......GRrr..
my nose is leaking...NON STOP..><;;;; 

gah, i guess it's back to the same old routine now.....

oh well..chinese new year (and my birthday LOL) is in another 6 weeks time..

so i guess it wouldn't be THAT bad....i hope.....

(looking forward to Dec 2010 now..LOL!!!)

HELLO 2010..!!!

wow..in a blink of an eye...2009 has come and gone...
seriously, eversince i started working in 2008, years or rather TIME, seemed to go by damn fast....
(ok, maybe it's because i look forward to a new month because i want my PAY.!! LOL)

So, let's see what did i do on 2009....

- LOST like shiat last CNY on the gambling table...(shitz...=_= it's payback time this year)
- started to wear heels (no, seriously, before that it's only SPORT SHOES and BOOTS)
- realize a new target in life (yup, my iMAC..LOL)
- started GYM (WOhoo...one of my best investments!)
- Did an animation for a friend's wedding
- COSPLAYED MY FIRST FEMALE CHARACTER..!!! (WOHOOoo..!!!)
- Went to penang and piled on weight...LOL
- went countdown in Opera...MY FIRST CLUBBING-COUNTDOWN!!!

Hmmm......not much, but i kinda enjoyed 2009....XD
OH, did i mention? the countdown was one of the best countdowns EVER..!!!!
yeah, no doubt we were squeezing through the massive crowd on the dancefloor, but it was really fun...
ESPECIALLY with See Wah...LOL.....(dancing the Wonder Girls song with her was really hilarious..LOL)
Well, i was kinda dissapointed that my Klang Kakis TOTALLY forgot about me for the countdown event.......but oh well.....nothing i could do about it if that's the case rite?
(found out about their outing through See Wah on the 31st itself...so yeah, i guess my name's off the list now? T^T)

ANYWAYs...it was a whole new experience counting down with my fellow colleagues, cousin and friend. Oh, btw...I WAS SOBER THE WHOLE TIME...a little high, but STILL SOBER....XD
so, it's 2010, GAHHHHHHHHH...i'll be turning 24 in 6 weeks time..!!! ><;;;;
let's hope this year would be another one with a blasts..XD

(btw peeps...WHEN'S OUT NEXT SESSION OF CLUBBING?!?!? shitz, it's seriously addictive!)
