Wow... so much has happened in the last few weeks. Sorry I haven't updated for so long, I've been majorly busy. For now I'll start with my con report, and the next update will be about my B-day. Sadly I don't have con pics... as I had to use a film camera so I'm currently waiting for all 6 rolls to come back from the developers. I'll post them as soon as I have them back and can scan them in!

For starters, Ohayocon was a total blast! I had 2 new cosplays, Saya from Blood: The last Vampire (in civilian clothes) and a Naruto SailorSpoof... SailorIruka! I also brought back PGSM Usagi and Pikachu.

Okay... Friday morning was spent in my Saya cosplay and in registration. Luckily the line moved pretty quickly. And we were in line with friends so it was fun. The afternoon and evening was spent in my SailorIruka cosplay, while hanging out with the peoples from the Animosity crew. Mostly Kristen, Amanda, Amanda (Jr.), Joel, and Adam. All I can say is, I LOVE THOSE GUYS! They are seriously beyond awsome! And so much fun to spend time with. It's funny though... I have been declaired officially "Adorable" by every single one of them. And they kept telling me how "adorable" I was the entire time I was with them. I don't think I've ever blushed so much in my life. We parted ways after the Naruto Photoshoot and I ran into my beloved Kelly-chan... aka... HotaruTenshi. We hung out in her room for about an hour or 2. Just chatting and snacking on various candies.

After that I changed into Pajama Usagi for the pajama jam. After the Pajama Jam I was wondering around and I ran into a Ryuichi (gravitation) in Pajamas and a Ryuichi is the pink bunny suite from Gravitation Ex! It was too awsome! A little while later we snagged a Shuichi (Mindy I love you!) and the three of us sat around and talked Gravi, yaoi, fanfiction, writing fanfiction, cons, and life in general. Then I ran up to my room and threw on a my halter top and jeans, touched up my make up... and Shu-chan and I hit the dance! We had so much fun! At the dance we ran into the animosity crew, ManMoon (huggles da TsukiiNiichan), and ChibiUsa-chan (waves!). After the dance I went back to the room and crashed.

On Saturday I over slept a bit, but luckily I had already ironed everything the night before, so it wasn't that big of a deal. I did end up having to call on Dani for help putting my hair up though... b/c it turns out the roomie who said they would and could do it, and I quote, actually wasn't as good as they said they were. So I owe Dani big time. She really helped me out of a tight pinch.

Luckily I made it to the SailorMoon photoshoot on time. I was kind of dissapointed that I was the only PGSM cosplayer. But I wasn't the only untransformed cosplayer. This was my first SailorMoon photoshoot, and it was a ton of fun! One of the other untransformed was an Usagi from Sera Miyu, and we really hit it off! We had a great time posing for pics together and chatting up a storm. She was soooo sweet! I also received a ton of compliments on my locket. People asking if I made it, how I made it, many mistook it for an official one at first. And I was able to talk some more with Lady Utena, who does the most amaizing SailorCosmos I have ever seen. And I was able to spend more time with TsukiiNii-chan and ChibiUsa-chan!

After the SailorMoon shoot I changed into one of my all time favorite cosplays... Pikachu! I LOVE being Pikachu because it's an excuse for me to be cutesy, hyper, and do a fun voice. I made sure to stop by the Gravi photoshoot b/c A) I <3 Gravi! & B) One of the Ryu-chan's from the night before was a major Pokemon fan. Let's just say Pikachu got dragged into the photoshoot for a few shots. ^^; Right after the photoshoot I ran into an Ash cosplayer. Whom I totally glomped, and who glomped me back. We posed for a few pics then went our separate ways. Not long after I ran into Shu-chan (Mindy!) who I totally kidnapped for the rest of the day. We wondered around the con, talked to peoples, took pictures, and had fun. We eventually ended up in the dealers room where we found the same Ash from before. Only since last we'd met he had bought himself a collar and leash... and was being led around by Team Rocket. After freeing him from Jesse, James, and Meowth (That's Right!)... Ash ended up wondering around the con with us. However, any onlooker would have seen Pikachu leading Ash by a leash. and that is the story of how Pikachu caught herself and Ash. I also had a conversation with a Mudkip completely in poke-language. It was great!

The three of us then went to the masquerade, and enjoyed it immensely! After the masquerade we parted ways and I went to go get ready for the rave. Which I didn't end up going to. You see, one of my friends came down with the flu, rather suddenly at that. And she begged me to stay with her. So I ended up spending Sat night taking care of her. Now... normally I wouldn't complain. However, this little chika decided to be the BIGGEST DRAMA QUEEN on the face of the entire fricking planet!!! By the ned of the night, I wanted to rip her head off. Good god! The girl was acting as if she could do absolutely nothing for herself.

After being woken up by Lil Miss Drama Queen at 5:45 am on Sunday b/c she "Needed help" (to get to the bathroom!) I couldn't get back to sleep. I finally gave up at about 7, threw on some street clothes and went to go get something to eat. I ended up being invited to sit with a group of random strangers by a guy that beyond reminded me of my darling Otouto (I love you Dan!). I started talking with one of the guys at the table and next thing I knew, he was majorly hitting on me! I nearly fell out of my chair. I mean, for starters... it's me. Guys have this nasty habbit of looking right through me. Secondly... I hadn't bothered to shower, had just thrown my hair back, and probably looked a holy mess. So... needless to say, I was pretty shocked. I still kind of am. But anywho! I started flirting back, and it was pretty damn fun.

Well... after breakfast, and getting Miss Sicky back to her own hotel, I finished packing, and changed into SailorIruka for the last time at the con. I met up with Dani and Candice, who were SailorNaruto and SailorSasuke) down in the food court. From there we went to the Naruto photoshoot. The sunday photoshoot was a loooooooot smaller than any of the others, but still a lot of fun. After the photoshoot I spent some time with Kelly, then with Shu-chan. Before I left... both Ryu-chans took my info, and Shu-chan put me in her phone as "KatieChu". It was sad saying good bye, but I can't wait for next year! And now there's ACen to look forward too!

Yoooooosh!!!
