Halloween
First off I would like to thank for inviting me to her party. It was great, and my latest cosplay debuted, and retired there. I finally went ahead and did not only Cooking Mama, but the PETA version Cooking Mama Kills Animals ( [link] ). If anyone is interested i'll post some pics I took today of me in it. I even made a phoney knife to go with it.


The Month of December
Kendo, Photo Shoot, Anime South, and WWE!
This is going to be a really busy month for me. I'll be pretty much busy every weekend with the exception of xmas.

On December 5th there will be a Kendo seminar, and promotion test in Bartow, Florida. I haven't fully committed myself to going, but chances are I will find a way to go nonetheless. The problem though is that my senpai will not be able to attend this one, and since I will be technically the only one in our dojo that is able to test I will have to drive, practice, and take the test alone. My current rank is SanKyu, and if the test is successful I will be promoted to NiKyu. To make matters better or worse is that there are talks of another promotion test in January in which if I am successful at the one in December I will be able to make Ikkyu which is the last rank before reaching Dan (equivalent to black belt). It's a tough call, and either way I will need to work on EVERYTHING.

The next cosplay photo shoot according to will be on the follow weekend of December 12th. The day after my birthday. If anyone is interested in attending this I recommend contacting for more details.

Anime South will then be going on during the weekend of 17-20, but there has been a strange amount of animosity amongst even some of its faithful attendees. Either spurring from it's CEO's overly outspoken nature, or the somewhat inconvenient date. Since I sorted out some financial/school problems it looks like I will be attending what may be my last Anime South.

Then that Sunday I will be leaving early to attend a WWE house show event at the civic center. Where I will be seeing HHH going against Jack Swagger for the first time I ever recall.



MetroCon
Harms Roy Harms Roy will Harms blah blah blha blah blah. Now that the news is out i'm not entirely sure what to think still. Chances are there may not even be a MetroCon next year, and if there is I may not even go at all!

I didn't really have that great of a time at my first metrocon this year. My room mates were terrible, it was a little over priced, and everything was unorganized. While I did meet some cool people that I ended up going to EXP Con, I can't really say I felt a good vibe coming from the over all attendees. Perhaps if I were to of cosplayed from either Kingdom Hearts, or Death Note it might of helped my chances a little more. As 80% of the convention attendees were either from Kingdom Hearts or Death Note.


MegaMomoCon
With that out of the way it appears I may be venturing to two different cons for my first time. Momocon, and MegaCon..!

MomoCon has actually caught my interest a long time ago, and I have been wanting to attend for awhile since I first heard about it after my first convention. Unfortunately i've heard some wonky news off and on about it, and not to mention i've never had anyone to go with. Fortunately I have been offered a room which I am considering taking despite it's not really in my nature to accept offers like that. Perhaps such an offer would just flatter me enough to go and pay on my own accord.

MegaCon on the other hand is a convention i've had opportunities to go to with people, but I always tend to skip out. The idea of mixed con (scifi, comics, etc.) never really appealed to me, and it has put me off. Although I made a new friend who has a lot of interest in going, and I am helping her getting into cosplay. So having never really gave MegaCon a chance perhaps i'll open up just this once.



Cosplay
With all this talks of cons I really need to step up my game quite a bit. I still am not sure what I could go as for Anime South as I have decided to save Moriya for MegaCon/MomoCon.
