My my, it's been ages since I've blogged anything on here! Well...that's mostly because school occupied most of last year as well as my life in general being pretty damn boring...haha >__>" Anyway, it's the start to a fresh new year and one of my "New Years Resolutions" is to blog more of my shenanigans and behind the scenes progress/ WIP of cosplay, because I've gotten feedback from my followers that seeing the process really helps! The other two resolutions are:
1. Exercise everyday A.K.A Get fit ---> LOSE THE CHUB xD'
2. Eat breakfast
Now I know that second one may seem a bit strange, but I haven't had breakfast in about...FIVE years now? So seeing as it's a new year and my final one in secondary school, I'm going to improve that part of my lifestyle a bit. As for the exercising part, I've been doing pretty well with that. I started following the same workout video as Youtube makeup guru Bubzbeauty in one of her latest updates...and I must say that it works like a charm!
The aerobics/ dance workout video is called "Ministry of Sound - Pump it up, Ultimate Dance Workout" and I believe it's the 2004 edition? I might be mistaken. However, if you want to find it on Youtube, just search "Pump It Up Part ____" and it should pop up. The entire video is split up into about 8 parts, with each running from about 9 - 10 minutes comprising of various exercises. Personally, I found that it's easier to work your way up the parts - for example; do all of part 1 today and gradually build from there. My muscles are STILL aching from all the dancing! xD Though I guess that means it's paying off right? It's easy to follow, and super enjoyable/ amusing, so definitely give it a try! xD

Moving on!
On Monday, I was invited to do a shoot by my dear friend Trung, which was yet another Robin Ciel shoot. I've definitely worn this costume too many times, but I'm still looking for the "perfect" shot that captures not only the cosplay itself but also the character. So until then, I'll wear it again! Annnnd again... Anyway, this time I was lucky enough to have my Sebastian (Taylor) to shoot with me as well, as he is usually busy x.X"
For this particular shoot, we were accompanied by my super-bishojou friend Grace, who Trung was also shooting as a part of a Fashion shoot, as well as mini!FreddieW...well Jeff as the director. We began shooting at around 12 noon and actually ended up wrapping things up around 6pm! SIX hours of shooting @___@" In the end we did get it done though, so here are some of the shots from the day~
The photos really are all so well shot, but knowing me, I probably won't retire this cosplay just yet, as Sebastian and I still have so many ideas of possible shots up out sleeves ;)

Annnd that's a wrap up from me~ It's 3am here now so I'll probably continue with a bit more of holiday homework before I hit the hay. School starts on Monday for me, so hopefully I'll be able to balance that, blogging and all the other cosplay plans I have scheduled for this year. Looking forward to another great year everyone!
Until next time~
