YOUMACON 08

omg duh! i totally didn't think of posting this sooner xDD but anyway since after all youmacon this year is in dearborn (which is only a measly half hour or so from canton...i think) i think it's rather appropriate to ask who's going :DD

ME AND THELIFEOFABINDER ARE GOING FO SHO xDD I'm going as axel one day, and KH2 kairi another day or whatever, and lulu's going as roxas and KH2 yuffie. we're already registered and crap yaayz xDD i'm going as china, btw, and lulu is just, well, lulu. so if you happen to see us and our badges or whatever (i don't think we'll actually wear them haha but oh well) just like come and say hi or something xDD we'll be wearing free hugs/azn boiz tanks for our axel/roxas costumes LOL

I'm going! And, if I can rope her into it, Mel-Chan's going! (Er, she's conecomelchan on this site).

I'm gonna be Osaka! Yay for Ayumu Kasuga (though my badge'll say Osaka on it...) Hopefully, I'm going for all three days.

Whatchu talkin bout brenda!? I'll be wearing MY badge on my FOREHEAD! OAO

and I'm sooo excited. X3

I'm working out for my Yuffie costume!! AHHH!!

@ Genten: and it's gonna be soo exciting to see you there, Genten! [what's your nickname?? XDD I'm Lulu, so just call me that haha]
Are you gonna be cosplaying as Osaka from Azumanga Daioh!? is that what you mean!?

and who's Ayumu Kasuga?

Oh, clarification. Ayumu Kasuga= Osaka. They only said her real name a couple of times, so not many people remember it...

Heh? Nickname?...um...Mads? That's what nearly everyone calls me (I barely ever hear anyone say my real name! Even my teachers say 'Mads' or Madi!!)

Yes. Mads.

omg cant wait! im going for sure, already signed up and stuff too. my badge will say neko, thats my most common nickname. lets see....well ill be going as a neko snj (sexy no jutsu) itachi, so just look for the itachi with black cat ears and tail ^^.....if you can see my tail....and going with me will be kitsune (her username on here is kitsune, she doesnt get on very often at all) she'll be snj deidara, hopefully fox deidara if i can make her ears and tail, though she might change to misa one of the days, im not sure really. my sasuke-chan is going too, i dont know exactly who shes going as. i hope she'll be sasuke at least one of the days. i might change one of the days if i can whip up another cosplay.....who though im not sure...ill have to talk to kitsune so we can match. ^^...well, at least be from the same anime...

what lulu? pin it to your wig or something? xDD i'll probably pin mine somewhere on my pants or something xDD or an otherwise weird place LIKE MY SHOE
"can i see your badge please?"
"huh? oh sure" *props up foot on table*
"uuhhhh..."

haha I think the badges are like backstage pass sorta things, though. Like, they hang around your neck. XP

Anyways, Imagec0rrupt3d on dA once did a Yuffie cosplay. It looked pretty good! We could do something like it. So, here -- I shall show youuu:



We could get a black/navy blue tank top and just cut it, fold it under and finish it off like that! [cause i'm not willing to cut my strapless top T_T]

dude thats a freaking awesome cosplay! haha i like the cute little heartless!

im not sure if all the badges are like back stage passes, but you can get one of those key strap things that goes around your neck and put it on there, thats what sasuke-chan did last year. she got this one that had a stretchy thing...and i hurt myself with it but thats besides the point!

It's my first time going to Youmacon -- or any anime con for that matter -- and the first time i'm cosplaying, too! X3

I'm pretty sure it's Brenbrend's first time, too.

[that sounds kinda weird, now that I re-read it. =_= ]

I can't wait to see all the cosplays (and the hotel room!)!!!!!

For some reason, the hotel room is always the one thing that binds everything together for a trip for me. If I can remember the hotel room, I can remember mostly everything from a trip. XDD

ditto lulu, my first time too. and kitsunes. well i did go to comic con...and i cosplayed there....plus i cosplay on the street alot...so its not my first time cosplaying, but it is my first full out anime con! XD kyaaaaa im so excited i cant wait!!!

i wanted to get a hotel room but i dont have teh money, hopefully next year i can get one with kitsune and sasu-chan.

Meh fifth anime convention! Thankfully, unlike last year, I can go all three day. I get to room with my friend and her Mom.

Yep, I'm ready to watch all my hard earned cash be spent in three days worth of an anime convention.

lol, i saved up a little over 100$ awhile back, but then my friend told me about this really good chinese/anime store in southland mall, so kitsune and i went and i spent all my cash on kakashi goodness, kitsune got a sora plushie out of it too. i also got a ryuk plushie and we were playing with them in the middle of clairs, it was funny and people were staring ^^

It seems that a lot of anime fan's cash goes into buying the most useless stuff.

Whoever's spent $80 on bookmarks, prints, and various other worthless items, raise your hand!

Me! (And that was just at Anime Central!)

trading cards, kakashi stuff, posters(and wall scrolls) and anything that has to do with cats!! thats where my money has gone! X3

im gonna try to spend my money slowly at youma con, save it all until the last day and then blow it in 10 minutes. im gonna try to bring at least 200$, ill hopefully be getting a job when i come back from vacation, according to the person whos getting me the job wendys pays pretty good.

Hm? What is this "spending slowly" you speak of? Actually, I run to Artist's Alley with $80+ and end up with...0 dollars.

It's not my fault all the expensive things look appealing! (I lie, I lie. I try to spend my money to where I can get the most out of it. However, I'm always afraid of someone buying the last item that I want, so I tend to buy it as fast as I can...)

hm thats true, wait to long it might not be there.
im going to practice self control at youma con (only when it comes to spending ;3) im only gonna get the stuff i seriously spazz over ;3 .....unfortuantly i spazz over almost everything. especially if its kakashi, it could be a freaking sticker the size of your nail and id still spazz over it...if it was a kakashi sticker....

If it's anything Kingdom Hearts, I go for it. Seriously, if there was only one Sora sticker left, I'd beat up little old ladies (no idea why they'd be there, though) to get it. Fear the RAWK HAWK! (Yeah for vague references!)

lol ditto, id kill anyone to get to anything kakashi. ...except for my friends but i would mentally torchure them until they backed off kakashi. im glad none of my close friends are kakashi fangirls ^^....i dont think they'd be my close friend if they were anyway. im way to controlling when it comes to kakashi

True dat, man. None of my friend's are Sora fans, which makes it easier to, well, continue living if I got the last Sora plushie or something like that. Yhen there's Mel-Chan, who's so obsessed with Black Cat and Godchild it's hilarious. It's almost like looking into a mirror...

I like the Kakashi icon, by the way.

actually lulu to what you said a while ago i think i saw the badges in a couple vids on youtube they're just like little clip on name tag things or pins or something a little more convenient xD even DDR with those things (god i am NOT wearing my jacket playing DDR.) like everytime you jump "BAM!!" you get like smacked in the face xDD

kyaaa, yeah thats one of my favorite icons X3 i was gonna choose one of the many "i like porn" ones but i dont think nerd-kun would appreciate that

i love black cat, train is awesome. again i dont think there are any guys in black cat who id go crazy over....actually i think kakashi is the only anime guy id seriously kill anyone for.

hehe its kinda funny how i got into black cat, i was looking for a new series to read and since it said "cat" i figured i would like it...i do but it doesnt exactly have to do with cats

i do love the little kitties that always appear randomly out of nowhere. kitsune and i got into a heated debate if they were alphonse kitties or catcats (i call them catcats for some odd reason im not sure of)

jacket? who are you cosplaying as? (you may have sad it before but i dont feel like going back and re-reading...)

....i suddenly have the urge to watch deidara and itachi cosplayers have a epic battle of DDr...most likely kitsune and i will do that at youma con...

Badges with those strap things....Not a good memory, I much prefer them to be stuck to my clothes with safety pins (though I'd be afraid of tripping and tearing/stabbing my self or my costume with the badge.)

I'm a little diappointed they don't have that 'mail-order' option for your badge. It's so much more convenient to have it sent to your house than to stand in long lines to get it.

Oh my gosh, there's a Tohru smiley!

ouch... that would suck to get your costume ripped by your badge. TAT;

what do they look like anyways??

AND HOW DO YOU MAKE THOSE SMILIES?! OwO soo cute

hm, i was wondering about the badges. i wasnt sure if you had to go pick it up or what. but sasuke-chan cleared it up for me ^^

hm....i think ill go with the strap thingy around your neck...ooh! wait i can put it on my collar XD i think im the only itachi you'll see wearing a cat collar. X3 but i am no ones bitch o.e.....unless kakashi wants to be my danna then ill gladly succumb!!!!

the ones sasuke had last year has this stretchy thing thats really fun to play with...unless it snaps back and hits your hand...then it hurts...
chi!!
orichy looks weird o.O
