So sorry!!
I've been away for such a long time!!
I apologize ^_^ Things came up.

Oh, I was reading one of the comments on the last post, and to RomanDesign:

I fell only a few times. Like maybe 3 or so.

So yeah, I apologize. ^_^

But I do have some nice pictures to show you all. Recently Matt and I met back up with Kana and Kyosuke in Osaka awhile back while visiting with Matt's family and he decided to take this picture ^_^


I'm pretty sure you all can pick out me. Kana's on the far left with the brown hat on. Kyosuke's the one in black with one hand on the guy in the suit on and if you can't pick me out, I'm on Kyosuke's right. Also, the guy in the suit is Matt's father.

The rest of the people are just friends of Kana and Kyosuke, some of who I have met before.

Also, while there, I decided to take a really nice picture of the blooming sakuras.


Pretty, no?

Well, I should be adding my Lili cosplay soon, so feel free to check the cosplay section every once in awhile if I haven't mentioned adding it.

Nya~
Just recently, I went out of town with a friend (for no reason at all. Can anyone say Road Trip?!)
And I snowboarded for the first time!! Can you believe that? I've never even surfed and I snowboarded! *Gah!*

Pic before we did anything:


Nya~

And before that~


Kyon (Kana-chan's bf) is in this pic!! Kana took the picture. This was after we met up at the con (weeks later really.)

Questions
I was recently asked for an article for the PlayStation Magazine in Britain. Here are the questions and my answers:

1. Talk us through your favourite FF costume.
It probably has to be my Tifa Lockhart from Advent Children one, since it took longer due to the material and effort put into it. I'm not saying that I didn't like my Aerith cosplay, I do, it's just that the leather made the outfit, and it was a bit more comfortable than Aerith's.
2. How much have you spent on FF costumes?
I spend at least weeks to months just working on an outfit, whether it be a Final Fantasy cosplay or not. I try to put in as much effort and work into it to get that look from the character.
3. What advice do you have for readers looking to get into FF cosplay?
I would say to spend as much time, and NOT rush to get it done. A rushed cosplay of a FF character makes you look horrible and it gets some fans dissapointed that you didn't spend time with making it. I would also advise that you get a character that you love dearly or enjoyed in the game. A favorite character makes for a great cosplay.
4. Do you ever get funny looks in your FF costumes?
Sometimes, especially when I did the Aerith one. I burnt my self while doing my hair (the bangs) and had to apply twice the foundation to cover up the burn. The look on the E3 goers made me almost laugh and also made me almost run out of there. But every cosplayer gets funny looks when they're wearing or doing a cosplay. It's normal behavior, I believe.
5. Is there any costume in the FF universe that you wouldn't wear? If so, why?
Probably either Selphie Tilmitt or Fran. Selphie because the dress is super short and I'd have to cut my hair super short to get the look. Fran because I've seen some cosplayers who have done Viera cosplays, and Fran's outfit is just time consuming. Plus, the Rabbit ears are hard to find.

Well, Dan is doing way better now (and I'm glad of that) so I have to thank you all for wishing him the best =^_^=

And I got my Lili cosplay done (Pics will be added later to my gallery.)
But for a look on what to expect to see, here's some pics of me with friends:

Hi!
Oh! Just recently, I got to meet Avenged-Sevenfold and a few of her friends (below pic is of me and one of her friends) at the recent convention in Phoenix.

Makeup xD We were bored (A7X took the pic.)
But yeah. Dan is doing a bit better, which I'm happy for. But it will still be awhile until he's 100% better.

Upcoming cosplay
The next cosplay that I shall be doing is Lili from Tekken 6/Dark Ressurection. So far I've got the gloves and part of the outfit done.

And for that pic of Dan:

It's not that great, but he's playing my PSP ^.^ I thought it was toooo kawaii I had to take the pic!

Oh, and some boredom cosplay pics:



As you can probably tell, I'm not the Reira in the pic >.>

I'll put some more later...just thought I'd let you all know about Lili.

The Family
Hey ya =^_^=

I just thought I'd introduce you all to some of the most important people in my life, besides my parents, which sadly, no pictures T_T

But other than that, meet my darling, but sometimes idiotic, boyfriend, Matthew Saeki.

We've been together for at least 3.5 years now =^_^= And like I mentioned, sometimes idiotic (which made him the perfect Reno!)

And the other important person in my life, and Matt's.
My lovely son, Daniel.

He's going to be turning 3 in December, but isn't he cute =^_^=
FYI: Matt's not his father, although Dan's father never wanted to be an actual dad to him, so Matt "adopted" him as his own son. -I'll probably get into this later on in another post.

And then I guess you want to see me, right? Might as well...


Well, besides all these, how've you all been lately?

~Rain
