What got you into cosplay?
My best friend, Lauren. :D Anime Fest Orlando 2008 was the first convention that I ever attended. I'm actually not an enormous fan of manga or anime, but boy, do I love me some Yu-Gi-Oh. I love Yu-Gi-Oh so much that literally I am taking advanced Japanese language classes at my school solely so that I can watch the undubbed, unsubbed Yu-Gi-Oh anime. これが大好きです!
What was your first costume and why?
Seto Kaiba, because he's utterly awesome and among my most beloved characters in Yu-Gi-Oh... which means he's among my most beloved characters in anime at all. ...oh boy! I'm a transvestite! :D
What has been your most memorable cosplay experience?
Taking Yu-Gi-Oh! photoshoots- particularly the one at Metrocon. Yu-Gi-Oh! photoshoots are why I go to conventions :D:D:D
Have you won any awards for your costumes?
I won a fan-given award for my first Kaiba costume; my second won a "Costume Hall Award" and "Judges Pick/ Honorable Mention" at JACON X- 2009. My Priest Seto costume got a "Star of Awesomeness" at AFO X- 2009 XD
Tell us a little about yourself
Though my costumes often hide it, I have a million pounds of curly red hair. I love it.
I'm obsessed with Yu-Gi-Oh. It's really quite sad.
I like goat cheese, Raisinets, orange soda and trampolines. I sing vociferously a lot. ...a LOT. I also draw comics. ...a LOT.
I'm approximately nineteen years old. I'm a junior at Florida State University and it's amazingggg. :D
Is there anything else you'd like to add?
I carry around a Mokuba plush doll. He's nothing like the real Mokuba in personality, albeit with few exceptions: one is that he worships me no matter what horrible abuse I endow him with (I'm his big brother. He doesn't realize that I'm a girl).
My Mokuba plushie loves yaoi (I don't) and has an immense crush on my friend Colin. He always wants to drink my orange soda and eat my pot pies, but I don't assent to him.
The other trait that my Mokuba possesses that is similar to the Mokuba in the Yu-Gi-Oh anime is that he gets kidnapped A LOT. My Mokuba has been kidnapped by all kinds of famous people: speech champions, voice actors at cons, internet celebrities; the list goes on. He's been kidnapped in many, many cities in numerous different states across the United States and will soon be making his way around the world, getting kidnapped. He loves it. He has his own facebook profile and his own kidnapping journal, complete with photos of everyone who has ever kidnapped him.
For the record, Mokuba is one of my favorite characters EVER, so none of these silly strange things mean offense to him or anyone who loves him. My friends just think that these traits are funny. :D
My favorite anime
Yu-Gi-Oh! :D That's really about it... I like Sailor Moon too. :D

Anything Mario-related :D If it doesn't have Luigi in it, I probably won't play it (except Trauma Center. I love Trauma Center omgzzzz).
