I realize it has been quite awhile since the last update, due in part to Amanda not having a computer and in major part to my extreme laziness. So to begin, our Sakura-con 2011 adventure. This year was surprisingly relaxed, cosplay for a few hours, then change into "normal" clothes and run around like chickens with our heads cut off. Something made impossible when trying not to break an ankle in four inch heels. So for as much planning as we attempted we actually spent very little time in cosplay, which accounts for the fact that I have almost no pictures! The cosplay fiend that Amanda is remade her I-no costume the night before con and I somehow never got a picture. Sad, really since she did such a good job :( Our plans for Panty & Stocking didn't go to well, Amanda (Panty) had costume failure (she made the costume, it was perfect, then she cut the dress shorter and it might as well be a shirt) and though I (Stocking) was able to wear mine, failure struck in the form of my wig falling off everytime I moved and a very embarrassing instance where the wind blew just right and everyone got a very nice view of my undies. Amanda stood there and laughed as I struggled to hold my skirt down and keep the wig on my head at the same time. Safe to say I changed out of that quickly. The only picture I was able to get was one a friend took of me with her phone in my Miku costume. Which might not have even happened if my sisters hadn't brought the costume to me which arrived the friday of con.
Ta-dah! My pride and joy of con this year. I was only in it for a few hours but it was the most awesome I felt all con. Partially due to the group of very cute guys that insisted on taking their picture with me individually. I was a very happy camper, sans the part where sitting wasn't an option unless I wanted to give everyone another show. Definitely worth it though and I look forward to wearing it again. Now to start planning for next year, can't wait to see what we come up with ;)
