Unfortunately, I likely won't be able to afford those boots that I liked so much.

But luckily, I found a cheaper, less accurate, but still awesome pair! They'll probably be... ooooh, about $100 cheaper than the last pair that I liked so much.

These are the boots I want for Faye Valentine:

Note that they are $130 dollars. I'm considering asking for money for Christmas...

If I can't get them, I can always get these:

I posted some pictures of my Yuffie costume. They're in my gallery. I'll hopefully be taking more relatively soon, so hold tight!

Enjoy!

Wow. Somehow, when I wrote that word in the title, it came out as "fimena". Strange.

Anyway! Yay for getting back on the convention bandwagon after all this time! This was the first convention I'd been to since KumoriCon's first year. When it was terrible. And I was 14, so my mom was watching my like a hawk the whole time.

But this time was different! Because I was there with only my best friend Randi, we got to watch porn, and hang out with strangers, and actually meet people without being embarrassed!

Oh, and I should point out now that the guys at www.chibi-tokyo.net are awesome. Yes. Shameless advertising on my part for their podcast. Randi and I hung out with Dan a lot, and he was a really cool guy. He made me talk to the awesome Spike that was there! Spike, incidentally, was also totally awesome. But I was dumb and didn't get his e-mail or anything, so unless one of my plans to talk to him again works, I won't see him ever again (that is, unless he's at Fanime again next year, which hopefully I will be.)

I also finished my Yuffie cosplay in time for the gathering! WOOT! All the pictures of that are on Randi's camera though, so they won't be up for a while. I'll also probably have a bit of a photoshoot soon with the completed costume, so I'll have pretty pictures up.
