After the Chaos...

Am now lying in bed with sore arms and legs after hours upon hours of walking around in high heels and dragging my heavy costume and luggage to and fro the event site.

Though I am tired beyond compare, I am but still happy at the successful 2 cosplays that I have managed to pull off in the last 2 days.

The flashing lightbulbs, the noises from the crowd, people recognising you under all the heavy makeu and costume or simply calling you by your cosplay name, all these send a tingle down my spine and give me an excitement that I relish. That's the reason for my countless sleepless nights fretting over my costumes, the blood and sweat (literally!) poured into making them as perfect as possible, examining each and every frame of the character to get the makeup and look just right, studying signature poses and practising them...

At the end of the day... this is what cosplay is like for me... and I'll probably do it as long as I possibly can...

*sorry for the nonsensical rambling, I am currently in a mood that's a mixture of excitement and happiness over the completed cosplays and fatigue from all the physical work on the days itself, is this what they call "tired but happy"? All I know is that I have to stop myself from constantly checking the message boards for my pictures and be patient, so I'll upload them with greater detail over what happened over the coursof the last 2 days in due time, so bear with me till then...
