School next week...

Hello!! School is starting next week and so are sectionals and band.. Pieces are so tough this time OTL and the section shrank. I have a mini free performance next next friday night 25th January at ut0wn! Many different and strange combination ensemble (eg Flute+oboe+sax+piano) from the band will be performing. Haha come down and listen if you're free okies.

The new season of anime has started to come out and despite me not quite anticipating any series except for Amnesia and Chihayafuyu season 2, I'm still going to be following at least 3 series. Eh we'll, that's just one more series which is Cuticle Tantei Inaba. The first episode got me slapping my table and laughing so hard even when I can't remember half the characters' names xD

Chionging Kimi ni Todoke season 2 (while I still have the time) and it's a really sweet shoujo series. I hated Namikawa Daisuke as Shiro in K because it was his uke voice overdone. The voice he used for Kazehaya is so much more refreshing and attractive.

I'm finally on Homare's (Taurus) route in After Summer, having gone for Azusa (Sagittarius) first and then Miyaji (Scorpio) cos I like to save the best for the last ohohoho.
This scene was so pretty, the sakura petals were continuously falling down... very distracting though XD this is Azusa btw

Azusa honestly ranked the bottom few after I played Summer because I don't like cheeky juniors who like to tease you -__- and JunJun's voice wasn't spectacular there. After Summer improved my impression by leaps and bounds. He matured so much and the things he said... omy so logical and touching. It was a pretty good route though the most memorably irritating and rage inducing part was right at the start where Tsukiko was being silly while gathering info to prepare his birthday gift. Like guuurl.. you don't refuse to meet your bf because you want to ask other guy friends what they think your bf would like for his birthday. Also you don't ask only 1 guy per day, making that 6 continuous days of turning down your bf (without telling him what's going on)... What is sms gosh.. Couldn't she ask over the phone? Couldn't she ask all of them in a day or two?

I knew Miyaji's route was going to be better and I wasn't disappointed!!!! Plus he has the same birthday as me so when they celebrated in game I was feeling smug for some reason LOL Miyaji's brothers are so funny XDXD I was squealing whenever they appeared. 

The downside to Miyaji's route was the repetitive problem of him blaming himself whenever he kissed or hugged Tsukiko causing her to freeze up. Then he would leave and distance himself, emoing the whole time until Inukai came in to push them to resolve matters -______- it's ok if this came up once but it was the focus of more than 1 isolated chapter on 2 or 3 different occasions. Well, it wasn't too bad in a sense I didn't get angry or irritated at what was happening. Plus his family is too cute so yea I really liked the route on the whole :D

Homare's route is going to be the best!!! I know it! 

You know what's bugging me in this this particular sprite for Miyaji?



 His freaking neck X____X

Ending off with a beautiful photoset of Sora. I find it really really cute when he smiles like this :D

Happy new year~

I forgot to update! Might not be able to update on thursdays this coming semester because it's no longer a free day :) Currently monday is still empty, but that's only for 4 modules, 1 more to include which I've not found. Haiz still remember how I was so troubled over planning modules in my first year wahaha then it became so chill from year 2 sem 2.. Now..... I think i'll just look for my last module on the UE bidding day itself ;)

So yea I'm back in Singapore! Missed my bed many many, and my 3G as well. It seemed as if I bought a lot of clothes in Malaysia, so I didn't buy any clothing in Thailand. Turned out I only bought 2 tshirts, 2 button ups, a singlet kinda top, 2 pairs of jeans and a pair of shoes. (Mum bought waaaay more) Hahaha I realised sometime back that I cannot resist lacy stuff, attracted like dunno what whenever I see lace on the clothing =X  It's so freaking pretty~~ no? This time while shopping I kept grabbing lacy clothes then putting them back because I won't ever wear them to school sigh.. 

Cosmetics wise I bought ZA's 2 way foundation a shade lighter than the prev one I bought in Singapore, Garnier's eye roll on concealer because its so cheap in thailand and clear eyelash glue (finally!!). Eyelash glue that dries black is not suitable for lower lashes X_X 

I saw many second hand PSPs in Malaysia and was really tempted to get one... But looking at my first ever C+ grade I decided to shelf that thought for the time being. Punishment! I have enough PC games (plus titles that I've noticed but not downloaded) to last the entire 3 month holidays so yea...

Currently playing Starry sky after Summer. I've been waiting for it since march last year and finally it was released soon after christmas T____T Thank you to the entire team who worked on the game. After Autumn will be out around feb or march, or so they announce.

I started on Chou no Doku Hana no Kusari and finished all 3 endings for Shiba san. Took me 1 entire day. It was surprisingly enjoyable given how freaked out I was by the prologue. The characters look and behave creepily. I can't remember exactly how I felt throughout the game but it was an emotion roller coaster. Very dramatic game lolol I really enjoyed the music, especially Kyouko's theme. Aww man they don't have the theme on youtube.. can't share here =/

Completed 20 chapters of Prince Roberto's route in Be my princess and obtained the secret normal end because my affection was stuck at B. I heard it's a glitch ahhhhh weelllll. It was a hopeful ending so I'm quite satisfied :) I chose Edward next without hesitation. He's a charming guy hehe
 ...... What a surprise, Prince Edward

 ..... Oh sure I wouldn't know even if he was winking at me

I would love to see that! :D

It's time again to glomp at my latest bodyguard in My Sweet Bodyguard! Just finished half of chapter 4 and I'm just getting a glimpse of that kind of person Sora is.

This was what attracted me to Sora initially, the shock when I realised this 'lady' in the 1st chapter of the prologue, and also the first bodyguard to appear in the entire app is actually Sora in disguise XD


And then he has no choice but to dress up as a girl to attend the same drama club as me since the director has a phobia of guys. BUT THEN HE GOT SEXPOSED wwww XD 

So far Sora's story isn't as funny or romantic as Kaiji's (I'm missing his triplet sisters a lot) so I'm a little disappointed, just a wee bit :) In Kaiji's case he had already been in love with the MC when they were in elementary school while Sora still sees her as a friend so that's only to be expected. Hope things pick up soon!

Merry late Xmas!!!

I'm having such a good time in Malaysia I don't want to go back... Eat, sleep, slack everyday plus lots of shopping :D THIS IS THE LIFE MAN

Results were expected, I've got to buck up next sem!! (: anyways here's a late christmas wish! Hope the coming year will be fantastic!! :D


 Zaizai only looks at the camera when he doesn't know it's on. I was a pro to have taken this shot without him realising HAHA

 

We came home late one night to see zaizai behaving suspiciously... Spotted a small puddle of very yellow liquid near the sofa. Zaizai's SO ADORABLE when he's guilty XD
 

Painstakingly greeted friends, played gacha to sell items and attended parties, whoops I mean went on guards to finally get enough enders to buy these final sets of outfit. It took me 3 freaking days......
To view the last epilogue for Kaiji, the game forced me to buy an ugly outfit for Kaiji and even inserted interaction with Sora to seduce me. The final epilogue was a little disappointing but I'm very happy and satisfied to have completed Kaiji's route :D

Kaiji telling Sora to shut up in Sora's first chapter. Sora isn't what I expected.. I was expecting a young and shota character who's immature and innocent---- Sora may have the smallest build among the guys but this guy is a total flirt HAHA I think he's older than he looks too. Either way, still cute ^^ 


The christmas event for Be My Princess is officially over! I took this during Glenn's route. It wasn't bad though nothing can beat Keith's route it seems. I always go for him first wahaha. This not the first time the weird narration has spoilt the mood -_-
What is this I can't.

Back to my games-- I've finished Kitsune's good end as well as Yamaneko's good end even though I said I wouldn't touch him. Kitsune has replaced Ookami to become my favourite guy in Akazukin. I was really angry with Kitsune after there was an overload of jealousy from that guy which even caused him to turn violent. WTH really fuming but I still forgave him because he's such a cute character. Didn't pay much attention to Yamaneko and skipped many parts, paying more attention to his H parts because I've never heard Yusa in any  otoges other than starry sky hehe. He wasn't bad I guess but no one can beat Waachan and Hinochii as of now.

Left with the Wolves' and Julian's routes for Black Wolves Saga. I honestly enjoyed the cats' routes. Sakurai and Yochin are excellent voice actors -kowtows- I was charmed by both Mejojo and Auger even though I tried not to be. The good ends are all so sinister I don't know what to think of them T__T Auger's good end especially.. WHY AUGER WHYYYY y u make my heart go tokidoki and then dash my hopes. Isn't this supposed to be the good end?! 

Half way through Zara's route and it's the most normal one, he's so gentle and composed though I can sense a bit of a Do-S in this crafty rabbit. Ishida also sounds very gentle here. 

Okiedokies I'm going thailand early tomorrow! Back on sunday and then back to Singapore on monday night. Then I'll have to plan and bid for modules T__T

My Sweet Bodyguard musings 2

I'm flying tomorrow :) updating in advance! 

Finally had a little more time to resume my otome games.. Finished the annoyingly long Ookami route in Akazukin. It's so freaking long, the route could have ended nicely more than 3 times but no they just had to go on and on.. I've considered throwing the game aside for eternity but still started on Kitsune because ahem I want to hear Hatano Wataru ahem

I can see the cycle repeating itself-- I'm going to fall for the character, the character's going to do the unforgivable and make me hate him. Depending on how long I drag the route, I might have forgotten some of my hatred and grow to like the character again -__- 

Given how long the routes are, I don't think I'll be trying Yamaneko at all because Yusa Kouji isn't that high on my seiyuu bias list much as I fangirl over him at times. But Hatano Wataru....... ...... ^//////^ he makes very sexy sounds. I've heard him in Tsuki no Hikari Taiyou no Kage as well as Scarlet blcd and honestly he doesn't sound all that different (or maybe I wasn't paying attention) but my ears~~~ 

Eh before things get too x rated I'll move on to black wolves saga. Finished Mejojo's good end and went on to what I thought was Mejojo's bad end but BLEHHHHH it was Auger's bad end instead. JULIAN NOOOOOOOO GUILIAN NOOOOOOO. Wah, terrible to see Guilian die twice. Was cringing when Julian got stabbed too.. In the cat's route I had to choose who I wanted to be punished by -pulls hair- was really shivering whenever the whip sounded. 

Next up will be photo spams for my sweet bodyguard. I'm almost completing Kaiji's route but my rank is still at an A, not S T___T wonder how that will affect the ending.

 Here's the cross dressing terrorist I mentioned last time

welll..... Kaiji looks reluctant

 and drink some milo HAHAHA

 Kaiji is a 孩子王 wheeeee~

The plot reached it's maximum sweetness in this chapter and then things started to get complicated with misunderstandings, mini fights and stuff ;__; I had just enough enders (in game currency) to buy the sweet route but chose to go for normal so I would still have enough for the next mission.. and I just had the feeling that I was being punished for not choosing the sweet route.. 

I wouldn't call that slightly surprised haha

 Kaiji why do you look attractive X10000 when all you did was to change your white jacket to a green one? XD


More sisters power XD I really love them!

Their hands look odd....... too close X_X

SO CUTE SO CUTE SO CUTE ASDKJAHLSKDHALSJ if all goes according to plan, I'll be choosing Sora as my next bodyguard. He has already caught my attention very early on but his route wasn't released then but now it is, so yea :D I still love Kaiji though.

Mr Goto.... Why do you have 4 arms in the first picture?

Post EOY

Long winded post okies XD

Possibly the most rushed cosplay I've done, stressful too since it was with a group of high lvl cosers I'm not too familar with. 

In the end both my tube dress AND wig didn't arrive on time (you can see how rushed the whole thing was haha) called Terenz one day before to borrow the wig and Yifen offered to lend me her black dress. Received both the dress and wig on the day of event itself, damn rush and I had no idea how it would turn out X_X

Got very paiseh wearing that tube dress so I threw my jacket over it.. I mean it's not very very revealing but the last time I wore something so sexy was maybe.... sec 4 graduation night??! and I was the only person in the group without a wig -__- super out of place.

Onward to marina barrage~~ I sat on my husbando's lap throughout the shuttle bus ride LOL

At marina barrage, I put on the wig outside the toilet with no mirror and only went in to check if it looked presentable at the end. The fan was so strong which was good because I was perspiring like crazy after all that running about to collect the wig. But at the same time I was crying inside because I could literally feel the wig getting tangled LOL it was very long, thanks a million to Terenz for lending it to me T_____T without the wig I would have just become a saikang warrior for the rest of the team that day.

I was able to comb out 99% of the tangles that night before washing it the next day hooray!! Proud of myself ;)

Compared to the previous events, more people requested to take photo. I guess the character really does matter. I should probably stop doing obscure versions of characters haha It's not how major the character in the series is, but what I've been cosing has been random versions of characters that are seldom recognized by people. This time, my character has a love interest in the group so yay for couple shots! XD Made more friends and just goofed around.



Something quite scary interesting happened towards the end. Husbando and I were rushing back to the meeting place because the team was leaving. A group of uncles armed with cameras asked the two of us for photos but I very nicely declined since we had to leave already. 

Then I saw 3 Hunter X characters and totally ran up to them to quickly take photos because I would never let myself live it down if I didn't take photos of HxH cosers. I ran so fast that my hat flew off -__- The uncles must have thought: Walao.. this girl say she no time for photos but run so fast to take photos of other ppl..

After that husbando and I brisk walked all the way to the carpark, met up with the rest of the team who then told me that my bag was with the team leader who was still waiting for me inside the venue. Oh my tian, I must have missed him when I rushed out. So I walked back in alone and guess who I met on the way-- the same group of uncles! Ahahaha

Since they asked a second time even after my first decline, I agreed this time round. Really felt like a prey cos this uncle kept saying stuff like "aha this time you can't escape" and other stuff I can't quite remember while taking photos -__- not very comfortable........ He was nice enough to show me a shot that he took (he's like the leader or something HAHA) so I asked if he was going to be uploading them anywhere, sg cafe or some fb photography page. He looked a little surprised and said jokingly(?) "Wah still want to upload arh, you never give me your email address?"

I honestly felt a sudden chill. So you've taken so many photos of the whole event and all with no plans to even upload them anywhere? All for personal enjoyment? Oh.. ok. Almost ran away after thanking them and saying it's ok. 

Finally met the team leader and claimed my bag, husbando showed up too, since we were taking so long OTL I felt much safer with them around.

We parted at the carpark since I was heading to bishan for a friend's birthday party and they were returning to the chalet. Was lazy to walk back to marina barrage toilet to change out and decided to change at the mrt toilet instead. Guess who I met at the crowded busstop: The uncles! HAHAHA 

Oh my tian 哭笑不得 The worst thing was the same leader uncle spotted me and was telling his friends that I was there. I just smiled politely at him and stepped out of their views, hiding behind the advertisement board. Pretended to read an sms and walked back to the barrage.

I don't think the uncles meant any harm lah, they were quite amusing now that I think back but at that point in time I was just being cautious. My green hair was very attention seeking I guess, plus the outfit and bright red lips made me look more mature-- uncle's kind of vege LOL

Changed out at the toilet and totally heaved a sigh of relieve at the benches..... Then I realised I left my precious gun in the cubicle -__- I had also lost the big plastic bag which I used to keep my gun --- shocked some train and bus commuters while carrying it around.. 

Was so damn tired when I finally arrived that the party. Scared my friends some more with my make up (Y) 

The silly pimples on my forehead didn't clear completely.. I abstained from chocolate for nothing! I guess it's time to get proper foundation.. I've been surviving on just concealer and bb cream every single cosplay, not satisfied with the effect on the photos. I'm happy with my eyes in general and eye shadow hehe! Though this time my left lower lashes was sticking out a little =/

The toughest props I've made so far.. painting scarf was a total chore.. And the colour wasn't even obvious in the photos... I've got to repaint it. My greatest take away from prop making is that if you don't even start making the prop, you'll never know if your idea will work or not. And more importantly, you'll never get anything done. So yea!

A few more photos on fb~

Exams have ended!!

And it's 2 days to EOY at marina barrage.

Was too busy making my gun yesterday so didn't blog.. also painted my scarf whee~ My props are more or less done phew but I was really stressed out yesterday... Was so worried that the glue wouldn't stick the parts together, that the paint wouldn't go on properly, or that I couldn't find the right coloured foam sheets. 

Then my mum commented that I was really too slow in making the stuff. This comment really really really hurt me.. I tried to tell her how I woke up at 10, prepared the materials, started painting, painted so many coats cos the colour was too light, spray painted other stuff, braved the rain and went out to buy materials, agonized over what I should get because I had no idea if they would even work and blablabla until at 5pm I was waiting for the glue to dry for the first covering of the gun prop. 

But I couldn't get it out because I was going to start sobbing if I had continued talking. Her stupid insensitive comment. It's true that the gun looked almost the same other than having  the barrels sprayed black and a grey covering for the front part of the handle but on hind sight, I don't think I was slow. I couldn't have been any much faster..

Mum knew that she made me extremely upset so she didn't say anything discouraging for the rest of the night.

Enough ranting.. ANYWAYS met up with the Ys immediately after Yz's last paper haha too bad HY couldn't join us. we had delicious hand-burgers and mine came with very nice la0sai hahaha I think we were all abit out of it-- it was Fei's first day at work, Yz just finished her last paper, I had a long day preparing for EOY this sunday, and Hsuan was busy preparing for HK trip. 

All of us wore blue!!! And we had dessert where we talked about very sad stuff.. :( my feet were hurting like mad. Never wearing that pair of shoes and walking so much again.

I've edited some AFA photos where yz and I did kyubei and kagura 2 years later version
 I think Kyou did a better job fiddling with the light settings but here's my take :D


I like this photo hehe abit zi lian to say that myself. The lighting was good! And Kyou didnt get me at an awkward expression. The AFA wristband spoilt it though.. and after brightening the photo, there are minor black streaks at my chin and neck area which I didnt' realise until now.. hahah


One of the rare photos with Yz looking in character (for the 2yl version at least) -_- I was busy and left them to auto pilot, they took so few photos and didn't pose nicely... wasted sia. but it's ok!! 

Yz very brave to wear this outfit.. It was too big for me so I exchanged for kyubei whom she was taking initially. She has a better figure anyway so 8D hehe
