SEPT. APCC happened

It's just day two and most of my weekends are already full again?? Ahehehehe! )

First week was already an adventure! If you got to watch ABS-CBN It's Showtime last Sept05, we were the crazy band of cosplay personalities featured in Karylle's production number. Believe it or not, the making of this project was done overnight. Yea like just got the news the day before, practiced the day after and then boom SHOWTIME! But it was insanely fun~!! ) Video link here: www.facebook.com/AlodiaGosieng… Many many thanks again to the one and only lovely BlackMageAlodia for this wholesome opportunity. A huge koala hug to our man of the hour Chris & to my fellow "girl band of Blue Ranger's ex girlfriends" for sharing this with me nyaha! <3 <3 <3

Now for the second half of that adventure (yes there's more nyaha) ..after the showtime gig thing, dukesawolf  and I headed off next to the premier screening of Disney Descendants. As winners from the #DisneyInpired #OOTD contest (which was held last week), we claimed our freebies which a souvenir shirt & some iron-on transfer graphics from the movie. We were also encouraged to wear Disney Inspired outfits to avail their free book, called the Isle of the Lost (a prequel to the movie I think). Dukesa came as Disney bound Princess Anna, her husband as a KrisSven mix & their adorable daughter as Olaf! *3* I "tried" my best to look like Maleficent in her casual wear with my flowy evil cape-like cardigan, killer make-up and high heels, while my +1 ticket & twinnie seseostara rocked her look dressed as Maleficent's daughter, Mal! *huggles* Once again, I cannot thank Alodia enough for this wonderful fulfilling day! It has been indeed delightful~! :3

The next day, a few friends and I were invited to a friend’s [24]7 TIES event where we represented her team in the opening parade! It was such a reunion of sorts, coz it just happens that the others involved were also old faces whom I've only heard &seen way back 2010-ish and now had the honor of working with today nyaha! Plus the fact that we were a mix of characters to magnify our colorful batch. Hallo new-old friends!! :3 For a small event, I was quite surprised at the number of activities going on at the same time like: basketball, volleyball, karate area, Zorb ball, photo booth, outdoor canteen, indoor bazaar, Just dance area, Bingo and even a massage area (which I immediately didn't hesitate to have after everything was over because OMG I needed it so bad)!! It was definitely a great way to spend with family and friends who love an adventure or simply want a relaxing time! Plus I got to debut my Honey Lemon cosplay in completion~! <3

To distress things, I went on another girl's day with crazy lovelies a week after! ) No seriously, I think after all the girl bondings I've been to with them, this is by far the craziest of crazies! You can actually ask our waiter/ waitress in charge! ) We had to keep changing places because staying too long in one spot was.. not exactly healthy for our feels! Even on the way home felt dangerous because of all the FEEEEEEEELS nyahaha! ))) Many thanks again to darling tokiwashojo for this day! You don't know how much this means to me and I am just so happy I got to spend today with you~! <3 <3 <3

This month was indeed full of gigs and activities. The Arendelle sisters, along with Olaf travelled far (and I mean FAAAAR) and wide to bring cheers to a beautiful princess named Abrel, who just turned a year old! *3* The place was absolutely grand! It greeted us with an outstanding Frozen stage set that looked just like home.. well, at least like my sister Elsa's ice palace and my adventures to the North Mountain looking for her hehe! Oh there was even a candy corner at the side & I presume that area was dedicated for my love of sweets.. so YAY!! There was music, fun games, magic and we even did a special performance! The kids were quite shy at first, but they quickly warmed up to us later especially to Olaf, who liked giving everyone warm hugs! Many thanks again to Cosplay.ph & to the wonderful parents of baby Abrel for inviting us, till next time~! <3

Just days after, many of my friends and I were excited for the one of the most amazing international pop culture convention ever ASIAPOP COMICON! I doned my Spider-Gwen together with my fellow webheads of Spider-Verse PH on day 3 for all Marvel and Spidey fans young and old. Our spidey family just keeps getting bigger and bigger. I especially loved when random people came up to me and complimented how amazing my costume looks! But as much as I love to say I made it, it's really all thanks to the ones I bought it from (kudos to Kino Kaoru & Monette)!! <3

After our little Marvel gathering, I was able to check out more of the events, took photos of awesome Spider-Gwen fanarts in the artist alley, got my feet swept away by Warrior Princess (M.K. Morreaux Cosplay your skit hust blew me off), bumped into a lot of old and new faces, even those I never thought I would dreamed of seeing! ) Awesome day is awesome, there is just simply nothing like it~! :3

PART 2: The window to the entertainment guests, the cosplay idols, the toy & artist alley were so open and systemized that it's worth every pain staking agony and cent to see, esp if you're big fans! I recently got into this cute monsters fandom of Amanda Louise Spayd & Chris Ryniak's works. Sadly, I didn't get to buy anything in their booth, but they were such sweethearts for drawing on my event guide booklet instead! Creepy dust bunnies & alien chicks so cute! *3* One of my doki-doki highlights from APCC yesterday of course were definitely the photo-op with Jeremy Shada (whom I cannot thank my twinny seseostara enough for this super advanced birthday treat HHHHNNNNGGGGHHHH she is just the bestest besty ever) and auto-photo signing sessions with the darling VampBeauty (who just totally rocked in her Lady Deadpool cosplay)! It was such joy to finally meet them in person~!! heart emoticon *huggles* By the time it was late afternoon, I costume-changed into Josie Rizal for a bit and dragged fellow webhead SpiderDan Geromo with me to support one of my favorite local artist merkymerx , who was the one responsible for redesigning the outfit we wore that day as Punk Spidey & Pinoy-made Josie. FANARTS ROCK WOOHOO~!! \o/ P.S. Thank you to TheALVINtaker for my widdle frosted Metriod thingie whee~~/o/

The aftermath feels were so overwhelming that I had to so much to share the day after when my mother and brother visited here from abroad. I told them a lot about the event and how awesome the international guest were! But my other brother (the one who works abroad) had only one week here with us and we didn't have enough time to bond very much, so I requested for us to do "the thing" before he left last Saturday. That's right! We did the siblings BEFORE and NOW picture comparison & here is part 1! Since we had no tripod or anyone else to take our photo, we thought of making this like a groupie shot. Obviously, we were too big now to fit the frame nyaha~!! ))) #noshame #noglory

Good news is, I had a week to rest and travel back to reality coz there was another gig scheduled in the last week. The sisters of Arendelle (huggles Cee Nicole), together with Snow white and her Prince paid a visit to another birthday princess, and this time all the way from the Southern Isles (because Batangas whow)!! Today we celebrated the 1st birthday of little baby Patty. She and her older sister were so adorably dressed in their own matching Frozen Fever costumes, which was the main theme by the way. Everywhere greeted us with constant symbols of the sunflower and pink ribbons. They had banners, balloons & the birthday cake was well decorated in it. We even spotted Oaken's shop on the side! Great huh? :3 Thank you again to the Borbon family for inviting us! We hope we've truly made a perfect day for Princess Patty!! <3

FUN FACT #1: Elsa was really sorta sick a coupla times during of the day. How legit is that for Frozen Fever? )))
FUN FACT #2: Sunflower banner is a possible teaser for next year *wink wink*

Alrighty! With Cosplay Mania 2015 coming up this weekend and with a lot of friends still asking, here's my line-up for both days. Two new costumes, where one is a special birthday costume to myself whee~! :3

I also got to print coscards so hope to see you there and exchange some with y'all soon! So don't be shy and say hey okies? Till next blog~!
