My sleeping in has gotten worse and worse. I slept until almost 1 PM this morning. o_o

Uh. Today I...er... watched Law & Order and Monster, and... Really, I have no idea where the day went. I don't remember doing anything other than watching Law & Order and Monster, but I only watched about four episodes of Monster and one episode of Law & Order, so it doesn't make sense for that to have been my whole day.

For the last two or so hours, I've been working on designing my Teto costume with the help of Nausicaa DVDs and manga. XD; I did a Teto drawing, a drawing of what I want the finished costume to look like, and a whole bunch of little detail "zoom-in" drawings. I made a materials list, started looking up prices on faux fur, wonderflex, and other stuff, and made some strategies to combat forseeable problems with the costume. I made a few patterns for the stripes and gloves, and...that's about it, I guess. I want to order the Wonderflex kind of soon and approach Gaylene about sewing the costume soon, though, so all this organizational stuff is awesome. I'm really, really looking forward to this costume--if it works out like I've planned it, it's going to be an uber-awesome cosplay. ♥ I'm going to get so much attention. XD;

I guess that's all for now. Erk. X_x;

I can't sew, either, so I feel your pain! XD;; I have a seamstress I hire every year to do the sewing for me. She's really nice and awesome and loves doing the costumes. :D

Yeah, quality of cosplay seems to be inversely proportional to the amount of time you spend on said cosplay. It's completely worth every second when you put that costume on, though, and see the people start staring and requesting hugs and pictures~! ♥

Hey, you can cover up freckles with make-up of some sort--though it might take quite a while. Not sure what to do about the glasses if you can't wear contacts, but you can always just wear them around and take them off while you're posing for pictures. One of my friends does that. :D

GO YOU~! Cosplay is just meant to be fun anyway and I'm sure you'll have a blast. If you're going to a con, you'll find a Sasuke NO PROBLEM. Cons are usually crawling with Sasuke bunshins. XD; Either that or you can hire appoint a friend to be Sasuke. That would be even more fun!

Oh, please do ask any time! I LOVE helping people with cosplay. Few things get me more excited. XD

I should do that! My friend's mother sows but she swore she'd stop after she made her a first cosplay. XD Maaaybe if I pay her well. Cause she's really good!

Yeah, I bet! It made me happy to get asked for hugs with my cheap one. XD

It would be hard. But I really want to try! And actually, I have a friend who says she'll do it. THAT'S GOOD. Won't have to pose with strangers. I'M STILL A BIT SHY AT CONS D:

Sounds like you've got a great deal going for you all around!

Aw, you don't need to be shy at cons! Everyone's so friendly! :3
