Melt omake

I'm back home after spending the weekend with Requiem, Nocturne and Lullaby down in Studentville. For two nights Nocturne had to put up with me sleeping on her floor and making a mess everywhere... But she was so lovely about it all, makes me feel like a slob. orz

vocalomania.

I'm spending the weekend in Studentville. The kids at the School of Pharmacy have taken the baton from out of my hands, and are holding the second ever Pharmacy Revue. Wonder if they'll do as good a job as me and my people did?

...なんてね。They'll probably do better than we did. I sure hope so!

Anyway, seizing this opportunity, I'm going to meet with Nocturne, Lullaby and Requiem to shoot some photos!

Probably due to my relative height, I'll be cosplaying Hideki from Chobits, with Nocturne as Chii. I can't wait - she'll make the most adorable Chii! I believe that she's going to make her own ears too, for which I wish her luck...

Afterwards, Lullaby will be my Miku (yes, MY Miku) in what will hopefully be a Melt PV, with screenplay by Requiem! (Co-written with Lullaby, I understand. :3)




I'm actually relieved that these are going to be casual cosplays...since I don't currently have any costumes of my own. orz
I have recently applied for a debit card so I can stop relying on other people to buy stuff online for me...just set up a paypal account and bought a wig for a Kagamine Len cosplay. Hooray for a step forward! (J 'o')J

KyAaaaAAAaaAA can't this weekend come any faster?!?!?!

30 years of awesomeness.


Yesterday was Miyavi's 30th birthday!
He's a truly inspirational person - talented, crazy, caring. And damn, only he would think of tattooing the Heart Sutra onto his back...


I'm not gonna claim to be his biggest fan or anything like that...I'm sure there are lots of fans out there who are more eligible for that title... But he really is someone I admire, not only for his talent, but for the simple fact that he's married with kids. *shrug* Something about that impresses me.


And speaking of talent...this:



Ah, Miyavi. Happy birthday, and don't stop being awesome. =u=

Magnet omake


When I was going through the photos I took for this con, I realised that 90% of it was useless random crap I took on a whim... And so I'll share some of those here, while I leave the pretty pictures to our expert editors.

Also, I haven't included pics where you can see the other girls' faces, since I haven't asked their permission to use untouched pics of them... So my apologies, but you'll have to bear with staring at my ugly mug. :P

Fake lashes and pastel makeup...neither of which I'd used before! D:


Even Vocaloids need cash, you know.


We were in the local newspaper too... D: With a friend of ours, who also required cash.


Had only bubble tea and a little bit of Ballade's meal for lunch...otherwise I would not have been comfortable in that dress. Dx


Ballade was originally in this picture, but for the reasons I mentioned above, I cropped her out.
It's not just because I'm an attention whore!


Aaaaaand finally...the Rhapso-razzi strikes - Nocturne just looked so adorable...especially with Rin's bow and the coat and the backpack... She looked like a little schoolgirl~


I can't wait to see her Rin look again!! xD


Magnet



Draw me close to you, just like a magnet
So that even when we're separated, we'll reunite again.

As I mentioned, earlier this year, Ballade and I cosplayed Hatsune Miku and Megurine Luka, Magnet ver. Believe it or not, it was my first time putting on makeup properly and wearing false lashes. It was also my first time wearing such a revealing dress in public... But while I was in public, I was being Luka-nee-san, so everything was fine~

The next day, Ballade became Luka, and I had a go at crossplay, being 'that guy from the Just Be Friends PV'. I don't think he has a name, so we referred to him as 'Mr JBF'...


We caught up with Nocturne too, and convinced her to cosplay Kagamine Rin's Meltdown look. She was so cute, I had to stop myself from pinching her cheeks or just squeezing her to death.

You'll see, in my next post.

the obligatory awkward first post.


Rhapsody here. Since I joined the Lost Aria crew (like, a whole 2 days ago), I figured I should take this new identity of mine and run with it. And so here I am, starting this blog.

As is the case when I start all blogs, I am having trouble conjuring up something creative for my first post. So here's a quick and easy solution - I'll tell you 10 facts about myself, different to the facts on our official site. Because lists are cool.


01.
Lists are cool.

02.
If you're fine with it, then I'm fine with it too.

03.
At 16 I wanted to be Yoshiki's psychiatrist.

04.
When not being a ditzy fangirl, I'm your friendly neighbourhood pharmacist.

05.
Offer me sweets and I'm yours forever.

06.
I'm a sucker for bishounen - fictional and real.

07.
...Which is perhaps why I like Visual Kei.

08.
Balance is key - I like a bit of everything except sports, really.

09.
I will laugh at anything, and cry at anything.

10.
Daydreaming isn't a habit, but a lifestyle.



And there you go. Let's hope my next post is more interesting!
