Whoa.. so it's been like.. 5 months since I last wrote a journal? My oh my.

First, ECG.
Best cosplay experience I've ever had. The people was amazing, their talents even greater and just... Urg I loved every minute of it. It was SO inspiring to meet all of the others and the show is the best cosplayshow I have ever seen! Which is why I got so surprised when me and my partner placed a third in the group category. Like, whut, no?! There were SO many amazing groups and we really didn't think we'd rank, so we're deeply honored!
So yaerh, I can full on encourage people to try out for this!

I ended up bringing Asami from Legend of Korra, Panacea from The adventures of Asterix and then of course Snow White from Once Upon a Time with me.

Then next cosplay related thing to pop up was Genki where i had the joy of being a judge at the cosplayshow. Had a blast with my fellow judges and had good times there I got my newest Anastasia cosplay done for this and finally got to wear it with my Demitri Hoping to go on a shoot soon!

The cosplay season for me this year is over, but I'm slowly working on some costumes still. At the moment mostly Elsa from the upcoming Disney movie Frozen. I'll have TheLupin with me as the lovely Anna and a great friend of mine as Kristoff. Can't wait!

School is super busy as I'm working on my final exams. Also I don't use dA as much as I used to, these days I'm more on my Facebook page, so if you want more progress pictures and random whiny updates, head over there!

Lately I've been dealing with some problems about myself, feeling really insecure. It can sometimes be hard cosplaying when all your friends and cosplay partners are smoking hot and amazing, and sadly I let it get the best of me for a period. But now the witch is back! I've come to the conclusion that, well fuck that I'm not a size zero - I rock my own show anyway. And as long as I'm satisfied with my work and having a great time, then who the fuck cares if I'm bigger than the others? I still look damn hot. HMPF.

So with that, I say bye for now! ope to update more often here, but you really should go to the FB page if you want to hear more from me.

Love yourself and smile! (Yaerh yaerh, happy dovy stuff, but that shit is amazing.)

Samie, over and out!

Wow - it's been some time since I wrote a proper journal here

So, my dA is kinda being neglected lately in terms of new pictures and stuff like that, but everyday life is just so busy!
I just finished some extra work stuff, which means I now have more time for cosplay making, wuhu! I don't remember if I actually wrote this here, but me and won the group selection for ECG ;A; so thrilled!
And the lovely won the solo category - like, how blessed can I be? So excited about going to France and that stage... That. Stage. iiih!
I'm slowly started to get some work done on my costume for the stage show. Me and Lupin will be cosplaying from the series "Once Upon a Time" with her as Rumplestiltskin and me as Snow White - it's going to be a blast!
Other than bringing Snow White (obviously) I'm still not entirely sure of which costumes will be brought with me for Paris.. I really hope to get a new Anastasia costume made, seeing as she is just so perfect for Paris But it all depends on time really.. It's running against me at the moment, bloody thing!
Besides that I hope to get a version of Katniss with me as well, but again, time! If I don't have the time to make new stuff, I'll bring something old

~*~

Past few weeks have been rough on me, hard times at work and in my private life.. but it seems that with the spring sun, good times are finally getting back to me So hoping to hold on to that, and get back to fully enjoy life! It's the rough patches that makes me treasure these golden times

So, I hope the spring sun will shine on you too (Ahahaha - cheesy much. I love it.)

I just put up my Princess Peach cosplay for sale, seeing as I most likely won't be wearing it again.

For more info, go to my cosplay page on Facebook >>www.facebook.com/SamieCosplay<<

I think I will be putting more costumes up for sale in the nearby future, seeing as I need the space

ahahaaa - it's been a while!
So lots of stuff have happened since last time I wrote here.. I turned 20 about a month ago, wuhu! I've been working hard on cosplays for the next convention here in Denmark, J-popcon, which is in 3-4days... Shit, where did all my time go? And I've basically.. I don't know, been living my life?
I'm looking so much forward to Jpop though. I'll get to see not only some of my fave people from Denmark, but some dear friends from the WCS! Like... oh god can't wait, it'll be so weird to see them again<3

I'm also looking forward to performing with the lovely on saturday AND sunday~

My cosplay list looks like this;
Friday - Emma Swan from Once Upon a Time
Saturday - Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty
Sunday - Harley Quinn in a fanart edition.

So yaerh, lots of things going on, and today I'm sick... which suck, a lot, but it gave me the chance to write here And seeing as the lovely douche tagged me in her journal, I'll go ahead and play along. But not really tag people... Cause I'm a rebel like that. andIhavenoideawhototag.

--- 10 random things about me: ---
★. I only like coffee when it's cold.
★. One of my ears almost got ripped off once, when I fell down from a rollercoaster.
★. I have an irrational fear of old stuff and museums.
★. I've torn between having dark red, green and purple as my fave color.

★. I love singing to myself when I'm home alone, and often use my cats as props in improve songs.
★. I hate cooking, with a passion. And I'm bad at it too.
★. I shift between fandoms and obsessions, but pretty much ALMOST have one going on.
★. Children are the work of the devil. In my opinion.


And the 10 questions for me from :deviantawacko:
★. Playstation or Xbox?
- I've actually never tried an Xbox, but I love playing playstation!

★. Favorite dish you can make yourself?
- As mentioned earlier, I hate cooking. But I would have to go with.. Eh.. I can't think of anything! ... Takeout?

★. If you could go somewhere abroad with 3 people, where would you go and with whom?
- Oh jeez there are so many places I'd love to go! If I could choose a place to go right now.. I think it would be Australia, and I'd like to go there with , and

★. Which fictional place would you like to visit: Middle Earth, Skyrim, Westeros?
- Middle Earth<3 Would love to see those places.. Skyrim remind me very much of the north, with a sprinkle of dragons in it. But.. are, the tales of Middle Earth lures me in!

★. Favorite mystical animal?
- My knowledge on that subject is actually rather small, or I've forgotten about most of them anyway.. To be honest the first thing that popped into my mind was dragons, so I have to go with that one. I love the idea of dragons not just being some reptile like creature, but in fact higher intelligent beings with their own culture and history (hello Skyrim).  

★. Would you like to perform solo or in a group?
- I've never performed with a solo skit, so I'd really love to try that one day! You have, of course, more options in a group in terms of what's possible and all that, but I'd like to try solo one day

★. One of your dream cosplays?
- One dream cosplay? Huh.. I guess that would be.. Hmm.. One of them... eh... Belles golden dress from 'Beauty and the Beast'

★. Is there a cosplay you want to make, but can't for some reason (not money)?
- There a few, yes. I'm not good with prop making so that rules out certain costumes for me and then there's the problem for me of being on the larger side of the scale, so it's not everything that would suit me x'D

★. And if so, why can't you make it?
- I cheated and answered that up there^

★. CMV or photoshoot?
- Guuuuuarh cruel question! I like to somewhat combine them.. I mean.. CMV will always be more fun to do in my opinion But it's easier to do a photoshoot x'D

Hope life is treating all of you out there well!
