HISTORY
I've been cosplaying officially at conventions since I was 14 at NoBrandCon 2003 in Wisconsin with my very poorly ghetto cosplay of Rosiel from Angel Sanctuary, and my Setsuna cosplay with angel wings that sadly broke apart. Unofficially, when I was little, I always wanted to dress up as Ash or Link for Halloween, but in 7th grade I dressed up in a fantastically ghetto Chun Li costume, and hence, it started. I've been cosplaying for over 7 years! I am now a Junior at Anoka Ramsey Community College in Coon Rapids, Minnesota. I am studying to get my MnTC finished so I can transfer to the U of MN. I'm not really sure what I want to be when I grow up. :D Maybe a dinosaur.
MY WORKSPACE~ HOW SLAVE LABOR-ISH
Where all the magic happens. Most of my cosplay costumes and accessories are actually stored in my room, I only use this area for sewing my costumes. I store clients' costumes/accessories here where they don't get eaten up by my room. My serger and sewing machine don't get along with eachother, and often have heated arguments
during the night.
Oddly enough I failed Home Economics class in 7th and 8th grade because I couldn't figure out how to thread a sewing machine and I tore those stupid home made boxer shorts and matching pillow you had to make apart. Yet, today, I've gained the knowledge of sewing on my own with a great amount of help and encouragement from all my great buddies. <3
Overall I'm a pretty easy-going person, if you ever see me at a convention, please feel free to say hi. I may be confused at first but that's just me. xD
There are much more costumes there, some there I haven't even put up yet in my portfolio, so please feel free to check them out! Over'n out.
