Aniself (7-8June.2014) 初めてた！

 Aniself basically is an event comprised of Japanese's anime and manga activity

previously was known as Haru Matsuri (Spring festival)

heard was organized by Anime Section of Art Club of SMK Green Road

Event mostly full of games,competition,cosplay and ect.

and here I made my first break through in

cosplay :x 

 

Have lots of complicated feeling when talking and thinking about

myself involved in cosplay

It was like feeling anxious,worry, scare and fun at the same time

and lots of reason accompanied with those feeling

well, will try to talk about "my cosplay feeling" later

There are lots of cosplayer gathered during the event 

and of course you will found cameraman and woman hunt 

cosplayer for photo shooting  xD

but honestly, the weather (1st day) was

 REALLY, REALLY SUPER HOT......

both outside and inside the hall

(only a few fans in the hall...)

 we bathed in sweat for sure 

and imagine you are wearing a wig and make up... D: 

well, luckily none of us got heatstroke 

and able to take lots of picture :) 

 

Gin(red hair) and Wei

in Rin and Haru's cos of "Free" 

(Iwatobi Swimming Club)

Gin as Rin and Wei as Haru

and I as Rin's sister, Gou :x

Together 3 of us went to the event together as a gang xD 

(It's quite a bit embarrassing and lonely if you go alone in your cosplay...)

we spent around 2 hours plus make up at Gin's house..

and during the whole process

I thought make up is kind of.......

troublesome....  :x

as I'm not really experience in make up 

and kinds of clumsy... orz

maybe my skill will get better if I involved into more further :x

It just like how other people said:

(cosplay) require practice..

 and it's true :(

another problem occur in Gou's cosplay was

I couldn't tied pony tail...  D,:

(due to the wig problem)

so the only way I could do 

was tie double pony tail...

ok...I ruined Gou D:

felt slightly regret of buying a wrong wig..

but it's still ok,maybe I still could use this wig

in other character or self design character (trying to be optimistic,haha)

 Some of Gin's friend came by been our little photographer :)

(Thanks a lots!)

 and randomly get to know some new friends of cosplayer :D

New technique of photo shooting, selfie xD 

 Shall call this scene as 

"the monkey and the tree" :p

 Sadly, didn't manage to take other cosplayer's photo 

as well as taking photo together D: 

we didn't walk much around the hall as well

(well, the hall is quite small and nothing much to have a look actually... :x )

 There were booths selling some drawings, soft toys, cup cakes(?),

games booth as well and ect

competitions like solo cosplay competition which cosplayer 

can show their talents up on the stage was hold as well 

heard there were also games competition but not so sure what games were those :x

It was quite usual during this kind of event,

where a huge notice board was displayed 

for drawers to drop their drawing on it :)

 Also help both of them take some photo xD

but normally some pictures ended up as a prank picture (done by me :p )

 Received some cos-card from some friends!

Didn't know that receiving cos-card would be so happy :D

Thank you very much! :DD 

***

As for the 2nd day I came as a passerby xD

but still met up with both of them 

and I became their photographer xD 

Luckily it rained and it was much cooler 

(but slippery..) 

 Characters of book seller and manga editor xD

 

 Some lovey-dovey photo (AwA

 A lots of funny things happened

and all of us have a great fun xD

  (above) doing "facial mask's scene" xD

look at those "paparazzi" ! (lol)

our creativity burst out that day

and completed some "mission impossible" xD

 well, besides the "snow couple scene",

we also have "mother in law's scene" as well

(specially done by me xDD)  

 Last sharing of photo: 3 of us in "Free" character :x

(oh gosh..I look so girlish... :x)

  

As it was my first time in cosplaying,

I thought cos in a female's character would be much easier 

for a beginner like me

but somehow I think I was wrong... orz

I'm not very girlish 

but my Gou's cosplay makes people around me 

thought me as a cute and sunshine female character 

(both my baby face and height portray me as that I guess :/ )

so some photographer asked me to pose some cute pose..

and... because I was too stiff so they gave up :x

I'm not sure because it was my first time or 

either because I'm not really good in letting others to take my photo

(mostly I'm the one who play the photographer role)

I always think that I'm not photogenic hence I didn't took much picture

 so suddenly when there are people asking you

"can I take your photo?"

and I was like "are you sure you are ok with me?" in a shock look

(ya,I'm not confident... orz)

lots of people around me always complaining or give hint to me 

that I look dull from top till the bottom :/

well, I know it's true but it's still hurt you know

when you guys say so 

and I kept remembering it until right now :(

searching for ways to be able to look even better,

but it really took me courage to do so

is not that I want to be boyish,

I just prefer a casual,comfortable,not too fancy appearance

In an adult's age and

 I know that I should be in a proper lady or women's look

 and yet I still look like a young, high school girl 

I don't think it's bad to be look young though :/

I tried cosplay not only because I'm interested in it

but as well as trying to learn make up and ways of tidy up myself

so that I can look a bit better than how I am right now... 

I'm not sure whether it will works out or not 

it maybe a bit wasteful when you have to spend money 

to buy wig, clothes and others for cosplaying

but there are some benefits in another way

at first I also thought it was quite wasteful in playing cosplay 

(I'm sorry to say this...)

plus most of us have no income :(

but Japan's cosplayer,Kaname 

makes me realize the gain of cosplaying :

come into contact with make up or to look even better,

 you will try to take good care of your facial, diet and daily practice

and to try to save money

 you will try to make your own cloths and other required material

so you build up sewing skills and handwork

something like that 

 it was like at the same time you cosplay, you learn something

 I'm not sure I can be like what he say, but guess bit by bit will make a change...

I know it maybe a bit childish in my age (though I'm still young)

involved in cosplay

people around you might say

"you are not growing up at all", ":acting like a kids" ect

but

I only have one life, and I'm getting older year by year 

If I don't try things that I wanted to do

I may regret further later 

living envious of the others doesn't make me feel happy at all :(

my first time in cosplay,

I felt happy and fun but at the same time feeling down as well

due to that I'm not skillful enough to bring out the character

and stiff, not photogenic enough in photo taking

but I guess it was just a beginning :) 

I don't know how many years I can play cosplay

how many years I can still doing things that I like

how many years,how many years....

but to be able to do things that you wanted to do

 makes you feel your life are meaningful

Gawai- keep eyes green to mount Singai

 It's holiday on 1st,2nd and 3rd June at Sarawak 

due to Gawai festival 

honestly,I'm quite an indoor person

it really take some effort to grab me out from house

(I also don't know how to change this shut-in attitude either...)

and so,been persuaded to have a short climb at mount Singai

(exactly different like what the comic picture shown above though :p )

 It's quite a short climb

around 30 minutes to reach till the end

 Dare to have a sit at here? 

 Quite steep at some area

have to be extra careful 

 There are cross monuments

at each stop of the stair 

around 9 or 10 of them up till the end

which you can stop by to have a rest

and pray

 Keep clean!

(It's quite clean all along the climb,

didn't saw much rubbish)

 A huge tree! 

guess how many years it have been grown

in this forest? 

 Got cheated by dad

saying that this is a rubber seed ==

it's a worm!

aiks!

(quickly wipe hand on dad's shirt)
p/s: be aware of some strange worms and catepillar
(especially around the handrail of sitting site)

 little waterfall at the foot of the mount

After that,having lunch at Bau

and been brought to see Tasik Biru

I don't know what to describe this lake

it's big and.... green (should be Tasik Hijau,haha)

was told that the lake look beautiful 

if it is not wavering

you will see shadow of scenery 

but unfortunately,

our luck is not there

***

well, climbing mount Singai certainly is much more relaxing

compared to climb other high hills or mount

have been sit in the office for long time,

so I guess it's not too bad to have a small exercise

to stretch my strained muscle and lose some fat :/

wonder how Japan's rural area looks like?

if it's much more convenient and well developed

I guess I will like it very much :x

Archery！ 一緒に遊ぼうよ！

Met old teammates by having Japanese cuisine and gave in some nostalgia old stories :)
Feels really great when you found out that you have compatible teammates,
although we could be considered as retired athletes right now... (haha)


 
After a very full dinner, went to have a walk at a nearby shopping mall (City one) and ended up trying archery!
I've always wanted to try it since at KK,but doesn't grab the chance:x
Finally, I played it this time at Kuching! ＴＴ皿ＴＴ

Our big brother xD

Our younger sister xDD

and the handsome me :P

 The Taiji triplet in archery! :D 

(ohh,at last we did took a triplet photo last night!)

looks so cool! lol xDD

It's really required lots of strength to pull the bow until your arrow reach its head,
hand should not bend and shake, 
and the tail of the arrow should aim right in front of your eyes (@_@)
feels kind a little different from Japanese kyuudou (弓道） which the arrow is actually pull till reach your ears :x 
but still archery or 弓道 , both just look so cool and awesome :D
(but I would prefer 弓道 more :x )


well, did gave in some good shoot and of course some even running out of the circle of target ! :x
can't really aim well
I guess I will become much more pro if I'm willing to pay more and practice xDD
It is encourage to go in a group which you could play more arrows in a reasonable price! :DD
we played around 36 arrows and I felt it was not enough xDDD
once you try it,you will ask for more :P

After that, bet on RM5 to watch our big brother to play the machine which pay token to grab dolls 


And it was a failure that RM5 we didn't manage to grab even a doll!
He spent another RM5 and.....he got a very cute giraffe! 
omg, this little cute thing actually cost RM10! ==lll
I now finally understand why people are willing to spent lots of money just to grab the doll
it is actually challenging your patient and satisfaction ==llll
I guess I will just shut my eyes close to prevent seeing those calling money-dolls ( /_\)



An awesome,fun and tiring Thursday night :)
I didn't wasted my precious time :))
and I wanted to try archery again next time! :DD

A mother's heart,Happy Mother's Day [stop motion video]

Our first stop motion video!

done together with Tonyong :D

The drawing may not seems nice

and overall may not graded as prefect

but it was fun during the process :)

video motive:

"There are different kinds of mother around the world,

but every mother gave the same love,

when these loves come together,

they form a carnation"

Photo taken credits to Tonyong 

Really thanks to Tonyong for offering the opportunity

and also doing the rest of her part :)

(Thank you!)

and 

a late one

"Happy Mother's Day" :)

Breakfast for Mother's day

  First time prepared breakfast for family

and it was on Mother's day

It was really a bit hurried

Worried that first try will success or not 

but everything just went fine! (phew)

 

 

I don't know what this recipe call

but saw it from facebook 

quite simple and easy!

and it tastes nice too 

The baked bread was crunchy, 

and every single ingredients hold well to each other

 it's not like sandwiches or burger that we eat

which the ingredients can't really hold well within the bread

and tends to drop out whenever you give a bite

The egg yolk may seems not fully cooked, 

but once you bite it,

it was actually solidified just like the texture of hard boiled egg yolk :D

It was not a heavy breakfast but it gives satisfying full feeling

1 or 1 1/2  (え？) is enough to keep you full

but still depends on one's appetite:)

 

 Last shot before enjoying! :D

Brief sharing:
Ingredients: egg, tomatoes, ham/bacon slices (I used ham) and sandwiches bread

Procedure:
1. Preheat oven 190 C
2. Put 1 slice of ham/bacon + 1 piece of tomatoes on a piece of bread
3. Remove the middle portion of another sandwiches bread (for the top) to form an empty square
4. Put the bread (from no.3) on top of the bread (no.2)
5. Break 1 egg into the bread
6. Bake 190 C for 15 minutes
7. Eat xDD

* Read from some net saying that : 10 minutes (baking)= egg is yolk-runny, 13 minutes= slightly runny and 15 minutes=fully cooked

Anywhere, I do not own this recipe

I just saw it and gave a try

 :x

コスプレ イベント ２０１４ （Kch Sentral)

A mini cosplay event at Kuching Sentral (12/4/2014)!

 

Well,just went there to have a peep and try to fullfill my "cosplay photographing mission" (cough)

But in fact,was actually invited by a cosplayer friend :p   

 Starting my mission's journey with an awkward feel as I don't know what should I do been together with them....
So took some silly pictures....
(ahem,just wanna show that they were busy! 
no ill intension,ahem! xD)


 

Gin finally debut into the cosplay's world! 
She was cosplaying own designed character :)
At first look, she really looks like those Japanese rocker singer! :O  

Some other cosplayers also came to play on the event!

 

 I shall named this picture as 

"Cosplayer's Discussion" 

lol

 Kofuku from Noragami :D 
she is a cute one :)

Akaito and Kaito from Vocaloid :)
wow,that was really a high heel :x

  

 

Vocaloid Kagamine Lens from Senbonzakura

 

Both of them cos as a couple because using the same color wig 

and of course Gin who wore red trousers took the male's role xDD

 Every cosplayers (workers) posing on the stage 

after their cat walk show (meow)

 And there was also a mini concert!

Gin and the Senbonzakura sang Shingeki no Kyojin's op

GUREN NO YUMIYAAAAAAAAA 

xDD 

 

After that was photography session!

 

Lots of spectators asked for photo taking with them :)

And I'm also busy using my unskilful technique to take lots of their photos xP
Though I'm not a professional one, but always found enjoyable to take cosplayer photo :)
Hopefully one day I have the chance to involve in those true photography session of cosplay (blink blink)

And also finally met up Armin :D
glad that I didn't scare her off with my "to hua" face(豆花脸） :s

 Our handsome Kaito :)

 

Everyone was really happy taking photo with the cosplayer

including this brother which looks like really immersing in the joyful lake xD

Yo brother,I can understand your feeling

because sailor uniform are really the best!　最高だ！  \(w < )

 

Not forgetting a group photo :)

 

 Opps!Spring's version have come! xDD

At first it was really awkward because we don't even know each other and for no reason I stick with them ran up and down the whole shopping mall to accompanied them to give out candy and free food voucher (the cosplay event was hold by a new opening food court boss which wanted to invite people to visit their food court :) 

There were some people got attracted by Gin (during candy giving) and asked for taking photo together like the hair salon worker xDD 

But it was quite fun as well when following them behind (like a stalker or a ghost,aiks :s)

and when seeing a group of cosplayer sticking together, a strange feeling came to me, make me thought that they were cool :p

Conversely out of my imagination, found out that most of them were actually a shy baby xD

*(especially our Kaito :p )

Did have a fun time (though the event was a bit cheerless :x )

and I also spotted a handsome hair stylist from one of the hair salon! LOL 

(that hairstyle was really good-looking! xDD oh gosh, got attracted by the hair style on the 1st sight actually xDD)  

Hope that Kuching will have even more Japanese culture event so that we can enjoy even more fun :)

 

 

Lastly,

I really llike this combination! xDD
