Sounds good so far! :D

I have another question for you, if you don't mind?...
I was actually wondering about this for a while, but do you make most of your cosplay costumes or do you buy them? I really am curious whether majority of people make or buy them especially when they are cosplaying multiple characters like yourself. I suppose how difficult the character's cosutme is, would be a major factor in deciding that along with many other decisions I am not familiar with yet? ???

Sorry if it seems like a silly question.

Heh, as I have hardly any sewing experience(yet), I buy mine..... >w<;; I know a lot of people make theirs, but if I tried to make a costume right now, I'd fail miserably. D:

I plan to learn this summer and get more experience in sewing, so then I can make a simple costume. =3

[Dang, well I wonder how it'll be in the afternoon on Friday. >>; Well waiting a couple hours won't be bad. xP I'll just keep myself busy with taking pictures and stuff. :D]

Not to mention you can still reg at the con, but it could be a long wait.

It's not really a long wait. Registration isn't that bad anymore. An hour maybe? Which is pretty good comparatively.

Supposedly my friend had to wait a good couple of hours last year. :x

[I do the same. =) I cosplay characters I not only like, but I can act like them and know their personality. So when I pose for pictures, I know how to pose. :) If the character is sweet and innocent, I do cutesy/innocent poses. If the character is more on the mean/evil/jerk side, I pose differently. You get the idea. =)Hope you have fun and find characters you wanna cosplay. ^_^ And if someone tells you, "Oh, that character is overdone!" Well, I just ignore those who say that. Who cares if they're cosplayed so much? If you love that character and want to cosplay them, then go for it! ^^ Heck, I've done popular/overdone characters and it didn't bother me. :) I kinda like the attention. >>;;]

Personally, I choose character that I not only like, but those who I think that I could easily look and act like as well. ^_^ It makes me feel more comfortable and natural. ^^

Thanks so much for the advice! I really like the idea of cosplaying as someone I really, really like, but I mean choosing a character I look like is cool too. Although I think I'll have to go with picking a character I really like vs. a charcter I look like because I do think I will enjoy it a bit more. I already have an idea for a character I can cosplay as so maybe I'll just do one character and then maybe next year I can get more into it and do a couple, I hope anyways! ;D

Btw, I like that you are going to cosplay as Konoka Konoe! I love Negima! I hope I get to see how your costume turns out. :D

[Well, I can't wait to hear what this is. :D]

[Well, this will be my first time going, so thanks for the heads up. ^^; I know not to take stuff like food or drinks from strangers. o_O; You never know......... -_-;;I'll be sure to have fun, though! =D I'm really looking forward to it. ^_^]

Most newcomers to Fanime usually travel in a decently sized group. Stick with your friends, be cautious and safe while making new friends. Shower, get fed, and drink plenty of liquids, and above all get rest.

Common sense really helps and when in doubt look for [and double check the badge] for a proper Fanime Staffer - we're always here to help and encourages everyone to have fun.

Huzzah.  :D

Yesh, I keep all that in mind. ^w^ However it'll be just me and my boyfriend going, depending on where we're staying. D: But I have some friends from Sac-Anime going to Fanime so I plan to hang with them in case my boyfriend wants to go in the gaming rooms or something. xP

[Same. =O I wanna know more about this. >3]

Any news?  I'm all excited to see what will happen with this.   :)

[Well it is cute. :3 Good luck with the dress! ^^]

I was on topic, I simply want to know if this style of dress would be acceptable for a formal event, not if the store is credible or not.

[Ah, well so far I've gotten good stuff from them. =D Only bought two outfits from them, but they're good. ^^Ya, back on topic! :D What is everyone else wearing? ^_^]

Bodyline is seriously hit or miss. I love them for accessories (in fact, I'm wearing one of their scarves right now XD), and I own a JSK from them that I love, and of course shoes (since they are pretty good quality and -much- less than brand), but some of their stuff is terrible.


Anyway, let's keep this on topic, and the topic is not where to get good lolita clothes on the cheap. :D

[I've never gotten GL from Ebay, so I'd probly agree. D: You never know what you'll get from Ebay. >_<;;Anyways, Bodyline has great GL stuff. :3 I love their store. ^^ Can't wait to buy from them again.]

A friend and I are coordinating outfits and I'd like to know it this dress would be acceptable. Mine will be black and hers white.

I personally wouldn't order that dress. It looks pretty poor quality as it is, and then iffy Ebay "lolita" sellers usually give you something that looks even worse than the picture. If you want to PM me (since I don't want to drag this too far off topic), I'll point you in the direction of some places where you can get real lolita clothes that are a great value (quality-wise) for the money (relatively cheap).

[Well, I do want to try my hand at some anime karaoke while at Fanime, anyways. :3 So whatever I can find........ xP]

[Exactly what she said! D: We need a Riku!! >w< And asap, since skits can take a while to plan out. Trust me, I should know. D: *Learned the hard way at Sac-Anime winter this year* TT^TT]

PLEASE!!!!!

[What? Ok, I'm a little confused. Can't wait to hear the rest! :) So this has to do with the Fanime Theme gathering, then? Cool. :D]

The "Theme Gathering" is separate from this event, but both will be run by my department.

If someone is in to acting, singing or dance and wanted to show off their talents in front of their Fanime peers then this event would be perfect for them! Of course they should be brave... very brave... cause the Fanime Fans are the ones with the say so on just how good it is :P It isn't about the cosplay costume quality or even if you made it  :o, it is about the "SKILLLLZ! ::)" *giggles I am tempting all of you huh?  ;D

@bahamutknightzero:  :-X Glad I have your interest and I can't wait to tell everyone about it!

Oooh cool! :D I shall have no problem with this. I am definately interested, then! :D I'll have three dances prepared for Fanime! ^^ And no, they're not Haruhi dances. =P The 3 I'm talking about, I still have to learn them, sorta! XD I might try singing, too. ^^;;

[Well, I like going by Kitty Chan, so I plan to use that. ^_^ Even if my username is Angelx624 some places. =P Kitty Chan's a nickname of mine that hardly anyone calls me(though I wish they would). :(]
