Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year !

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all my beloved readers !

I always wanted to do a Christmas-themed photo shoot and finally this year my dream is fulfilled !! ( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ

Christmas has always been my favorite holiday of the year because I enjoy seeing all the beautiful Christmas decorations especially in shopping malls , listening to Christmas Songs and also yummy Christmas dinner to look forward to + Christmas Movies ! 

I enjoy Christmas gatherings too , where my friends and I get together - have a nice dinner and exchanging gifts. 

This year , I got myself a Christmas Tree too !

It has been years since I had a Christmas Tree. So I was really excited and spent a lot decorating the tree lol. It's a good thing that Daiso sells lots of cheap Christmas deco' because my tree is 8ft tall and it needs lots and lots of Christmas ornaments. 

For those who follow my twitter , you may already witness my tree decorating journey lol

I don't have gifts underneath the tree but I do have lots of plushies that I received this year from my lovely friends and family. This is only 30% of my collection ! * shy * (〜￣▽￣)〜

A video of my Christmas Tree at night with lights on !

I love my Christmas Tree very much ❤

p/s : There is a creepy alpaca face on it somewhere .

I dressed up my cats too but they are too afraid of strangers so I can only do a private photo shoot for them myself lol . Still very cute (๑>ᴗ<๑)

As for the costume , it is my original design.

It's my first time making a costume that isn't cosplay. Made this in like 3 days ? All the materials used are remnants from my previous projects. Even though it's all red fabric , actually it's different types of fabric mix and match together. I'm quite happy with the result.

Did some beading on the top with pearls and gems + I made hair accessories too because I secretly like twintails. * cough cough *

The concept ?

Initially I was thinking bout Santarina or Reindeer ( because of Frozen Sven lol ) but I feel like I wanted to have something a little different so I chose to be an elf girl , Santa's Elf Girl.

She decorates Christmas Trees and wrap plushies for kids. Sound legit ? LOL (ღ˘⌣˘ღ) ♫･*:.｡. .｡.:*･

Thank you Blur from Naneee? Photography and Kenneth from KennTee Photography for accepting my super last minute photo shoot request. ( Like a day after Comic Fiesta lolol )

Best of 2012

Hello !

How's your holiday so far ? Mine was kinda relaxed , spending most of my time resting at home , hanging out with my lovelies and quiet time with my cat family ! College is starting in a week time ! Gosh , and I haven't get started on my assignment yet LOL . * lazy me hehe * 2012 was a super awesome year for me to be honest. I haven't felt so happy for a long time. It's the BEST year for me so far ! Although I'm pretty positive that year 2013 will be even better ! ♥

Here are some of the highlights of  my awesome year 2012 :

January -  Did a cosplay photoshoot of my favorite anime series " Guilty Crown" ! I cosplayed as Shu with my lovely Angie as Inori. Plus I also made a Facebook Page for my cosplay ! ( * v * )

December -  Pierced my ears for the first time with Princess Hermes ! Also celebrated Christmas with my lovelies !! First time exchanging gifts with them too ! * happy *


Why is this year so special for me ?

There were ups and downs but definitely there were more happy things in my life ! * must be The Secret working it's magic * I am grateful that I'm blessed with beautiful cats and kittens. I am happy that I'm surrounded with wonderful people that light up my life. Grateful for all the opportunities given to me. I enjoy my college and I'm in Semester 5 now ! There were many little things that I never thought would have happened but it did. I'm truly blessed . :') Thank you , really !

You might been wondering why I haven't cosplayed for quite some time. Last semester was really harsh on me and I don't really have much time to make costumes... But I will be cosplaying again next week with my lovely group ! I'm really nervous because I haven't been cosplaying since August hehe. Wish me luck !!

Thank you everyone for your lovely support ! I will work harder and bring you more cosplays next year ! Fighting ! * excited max *

HAPPY NEW YEAR ! It's 2013 now , and I wish that you will be blessed with good health , good luck and and awesome year ahead !! Love you ! * hugs hugs * ♥ ♥ ♥
