Its been a while since I've written about THE COSGRAPHER and here it is again
DISCLAIMER
The following story is based on my own personal experience as a Cosplayer and Photographer all rolled into one(COSGRAPHER), as I perceived it as I went along. Should anyone be offended by this, please accept my humblest of apologies.
THIS IS NOT A RANT JOURNAL. JUST A DRAMATIZATION OF MY LIFE
DUE TO MASSIVE GOING-ONS IN 2006, I'LL SPLIT THIS YEAR INTO MANY PARTS
THIS IS PART IV
Warning : Extremely Long Post with Pictures(Caution For small Bandwidths)
A LITTLE CHANGE IN ME
After being bomb-blasted by my peers as well as my own tortured thoughts...it was time to meet them again and see if I would be bomb-blasted...this time broadcast LIVE in front of me as I decided to join the Cosplay chess try outs at Taman Paramount. There, I met some old friends...DAI, GINGER as well as new ones like Mintos and Ballistic Dragon.
The whole try-out was a mess but there were breakthroughs along the way. All in all it was FUN FUN outing...guess my fears are unfounded but some of them have a certain coolness in their voices when I talked to them...best be cautious when speaking.
More on these, I've learn much from advice from Kenneth, Dad and a whole bunch of people as well as from THE SECRET. No point dwelling on this predicament but look forward to the future for me and the people that I love.
AFTER ALL THESE, ITS BEST TO CONTINUE MY WORK
Well, all these excitement have really caused my time making my comicFiesta project but I managed to get it ready a little...bit by bit,
The costume was ready on time. And its really a massive costume with layers upon layers of red and yellow paint.
A LITTLE TIME OFF FROM ALL THAT
Finally after these encounters, I was more comfortable to go back into shooting cosplays again. So went one day trips to KL for two days of shooting the Anicom Event at Sungai Wang plaza.
It was through these events that I got to know Choco-lime, Nunchi, Dryad, Kikyo and many others. Hopefully these encounters would be friendly at best. So from there...bus ride, sleep, go to venue, eat, shoot photos, rush back to the bus terminal and take a slow ride back to Ipoh.
Once I'm back, its continue with my Kikuchiyo Project.
ONWARDS TO COMICFIESTA!!!
Nothing much happen a few weeks before Comic Fiesta except that I've once again disturb the hornets nest with a simple greeting to my main critic and suddenly...one of her friends blasted me with the following...just because I mentioned photographic and cosplay FUN.
"YOU'RE REALLY DENSE FOR NOT KNOWING WHAT WE JUST SAID"
"STAY AWAY FROM US"
"KEEP YOUR STOOPID CAMERA OUT OF OUR FACES"
*Can't really remember the exact word though*
After that I tried to sending them an email explaining and maybe a little irritating piece of my mind as well but I never did receive any reply from them.
Okay apart from that...nothing really major happened except that my Ipoh coser friends are really disappointed with the local tailor which usually make the cosplay costumed for us.
COMICFIESTA 2006
Day one was just for photos...shooting shooting shooting and more shooting...didn't meet my critics that day but I was sincerely hoping I could at least meet them and shake their hands in the most gentlemanly way.
The only drawback of the day is the lack of food and that horrible soggy fries + yucky crab burgers sold there.
The second day was the main event where I don the Kikuchiyo Costume and was it heavy!!! Was struggling with the weight and my hungry tummy as well as hordes of people wanting to take photos of me.
Finally the cosplay Chess event where I'm one of the finalist! Went there do battle and broke my sword in the process...(><)
However, I didn't get to the final five of the Best cosplayer competition but I did get a special price of 'BEST CRAFTMANSHIP' Sweet!!! :D :D :D
To add to my satisfaction, I got to shake hands with my nemesis whom is a little reluctant to do so. But it was in good faith that we did. A personal victory for myself and I rather not gloat about it since it was that that landed me the 'unwarranted publicity' in the first place.
Also it was this event that I got to know a Singaporean cosplayer...Evelyn.
However, the bad thing about ComicFiesta 2006 is that I lost my handphone for the second time that year....Motorola V360....GRRRrrrrrrrrr!!!!
ENDING THE YEAR WITH A HAPPY NOTE
After ComicFiesta, I attended an unofficial outing and got to know many other cosplayers as well. I guess, I could place the turbulent events of 2006 behind me after these HAPPY encounters but sometimes, i still taked about it with friends and reflect on it....hopefully I wouldn't want to have it happening again.
-STAY TUNED FOR THE YEAR 2007-

That's it for Year 2006...My Turbulent Year as well as the one that opened my eyes on many things. |
