Okay, so maybe shampoo lather isn't the best hair gel substitute, but it's the closest thing I have and I sort of was able to get my hair looking Yuushi-ish, only I'm not too sure because the hand mirror was really small and I had to squint through the stream 'cause I'm blind. Hair's definitely too long still if I want it done properly, and the ( Read more... )

I usually prefer to go with wigs; it's one less thing to worry about.

Here's a list of cons in America. Just scroll down, I already preselected California ( ... )

I just took a quick look through Google xD; If it's a "natural" cut (say, if I were to do Hiyoshi), would you go specifically for a cosplay wig, or a regular wig? (cost, quality, etc in consideration)

!! Thank you for the list! I didn't know so many were centered around LA *____* Hmmm~ I've got a cousin in Texas; maybe I should have tried meeting up with her xD Although I have no idea if she even likes animanga/video games, haha.

Several hours without food and I'm grumpy as heck; I can't imagine going around with an empty stomach trying to enjoy myself! xD Food and water, okay! Hand sanitizer. Got it.

If I end up going to one close to here, I might not have to worry about hotel costs, so that'll be a plus. I lived first quarter mostly on snacks before I got my meal plan upgraded, so I'm okay with that too! xD; Just want to be as low cost as possible to give my parents less of a reason to say no, I guess.

My hair is really long; I'd have to do a wig. If I had short hair already cut like Hiyoshi's then I wouldn't have to worry about anything.

LOL Honey, if you come down to Texas, I'll take you. There's two big ones in Dallas, two in Houston, one in Austin and one in San Antonio.

If you go to one close by and can opt out of hotel costs, that'll be the cheapest option.

Don't worry about makeup. I don't use it at all unless I had the Band Banquet or prom to go to, and mom had to put it on for prom and my friend had to do it for the Band Banquet (she owned a whole ton and she always did my hair too).
Saves time in the morning not to put it on lol. If I do wear any, it's foundation, eye shadow, and very light blush.

Convention is on my bucket list!!!!! I was thinking about Anime Central (it's in Chicago), but it's April 27-29 and my family and I are helping my brother move out of his apartment on the 27th :/ There went that plan. It get all jealousy of people that get to go to a lot of cons… in fact, I just did last week TT ( ... )

Haha, besides not having many places to be where I need to look pretty, I don't care enough *to* look pretty to wear it. Come to think of it, I'll take back what I said about never wearing makeup; for graduation I think my mom put that powder stuff on my face so because of pictures, but I really couldn't tell the difference xD ( ... )

I had this discussion with someone the other day 'cause I thought that I wasn't pretty 'cause I didn't wear makeup... but you know, there's a lot more to be said about inner beauty. If you got that (and you definitely do!), then it shows through as an outer beauty too. *hugs*

LET'S DO IT.
One of the crazier things on mine is to have my own tennis court in my backyard XDDD
And to meet Kane and Baba Toru one day (but that's somewhat more possible than that tennis court... those things are like $15,00-$25,000 I believe).
But I do have more normal ones on there.

If I get a job in the Midwest or the New England states, then the most expensive thing would be the plane ticket. The convention pass is the cheapest thing - I'm pretty good about spending money. Ahh, I do packed food when I can for lunches and save money for a good dinner :)

Ori, dear, I WOULD LOVE TO GO WITH YOU <3 <3 <3 ( ... )

Aww, I definitely believe in inner beauty! My mom says I have to smile though, if I want to look good, haha xDD

YES. Haha, when we moved houses a couple years ago and were looking around, there was this one house with this *super huge* backyard, which was set up as a sort of patio area, stairs up, and then more backyard. My first reaction was to exclaim "You can level the ground and fit a whole tennis court in here!!" and my mom immediately responded with "NO." She wanted a garden xD;;

Ahh, plane tickets just up the state is already expensive, I can imagine how much across the country would be D: But yes!! If possible, going to my first con with you would be amazing \xD/ <3 <3 <3 Let's do this!! Haha ( ... )

Whit and I are probably going to PAX this year. :3 That will be Labor Day weekend. Yaoi Con is usually in October, no idea when it is this year, but that's in San Francisco (and it's a ton of fun~). The nice thing about Yaoi Con is that everyone there MUST be 18+, so you don't have kiddos running around.

If you are interested in PAX, I'm happy to be your adult. I'll be 27 in June, Whit will be 23 next month.

I also have perfected my Ah~n. ;D

I don't know if I'll be able to go to cons this year, depending on when a good time to ask permission is, early registration, etc xD; Do you guys go to the same con every year, or jump around or what? My dad's done several business trips up in Seattle, maybe if the time corresponds I could be able to convince *________*

I've been told I do a scary TARUNDORU!! xD

(...You're one of the only people on my FList I can use Pokemon icons for and not feel weird, haha.)

Actually, I haven't been to a con in a few years... Whit's been more recently than I have. PAX is something we've been trying to go to for like... four years. OTL It looks like so much fun, though!

XD; I will be appropriately nonplussed.

(XD; Have you seen my collection~?)

Hmmn~ Hmnn~~ I'll be in the middle of summer break at that time; maybe if I can find a friend around here willing to go with me, I might be able to come with *____* It does look like a lot of fun. All of them do! xD;

(Among your 200+ userpics? Yes xDD Userpics are one of the first things I browse through when I meet other people, haha.)

Not the going around eating junky food and emptying my wallet for pretty things, but the meeting up with people who love the same thing with as much or perhaps more intensity as I do. People I can shout "TARUNDORU!!" at and who'll just raise an eyebrow and go "Ahn~?" back at me.
THIS. MY DREAM, YO. <3

Yeah, okay. I have nothing pertinent to add. *runs away*
