Comic Fiesta 2009 (Competitor's Chronicles)

Over 20 contestants on one stage battling it out for the title. To win the prestigious Comic Fiesta Solo Competition Championship. Said to be the toughest competition of the year as it test a cosplayer's creativity and skill on stage and with the amount of participants involved, it is no easy game and only the best 8 are able to move on to the final round.

I registered myself when the registration opened, only to find that I was the 1st one there...

Me: Am I the 1st?
Karie: Yeap you are
Me: I'll come back later
Karie: *drags me back* Noo... sign now
Me: Damn...

Not far behind me were the other contestants... why did I go 1st... >.<

The contestants lined up and met for the briefing at 12.30PM. We were told what to do and soon, it was time to head off to the stage. The judges took their place and the fight was on

Comic Fiesta Day 2 (Suoh Tamaki's Host Report)

Trying my hardest to put a smile on the faces of my customers is what I live for. Seeing them smirk from the edge of their lips, holding on to their breathe as they try not to laugh and seeing the joy in their eyes.... That is what I live for as a Host... no... The Host King.

Shall we dance, Mademoiselle?

Comic Fiesta Day 2 was even more impressive than day 1... the costume details, the cosplayers, the beauty of the event... it was majestic till, breath-taking even... I stand in awe at all the gorgeous costumes and I envy the effort some put in to their work, but I have my skills as well... not in my props or costume... it's my heart as a Host.

The agenda for the day was to make some smiles as well as the solo competition, but let's talk more on the host business (Before Kyouya kills me)

Tamaki's Gallery: My customers for the Day

It's so nice to serve you

Just for a smile

What do you wish for?

A date?

How bout some tea?

Maybe a dance?

*facepalm*
Me: okk.... *runs* Phail XP

Welcome to Ouran's Host Club

Welcome to all

Yes... we even get customers like this XP

A princess came to visit

Sweet Memories

My best customer, Mio from K-On came to visit XP

Day 2 was a blast for this Host, tiring... but enjoyable. I'm glad to be able to serve all of you.. and if you still have my rose (kept it till it withered), I thank you for holding me close to your heart, either as a friend, family or host.

Well... it's time for me to take my leave... My competition is starting

Comic Fiesta Day 1 (Kiryu Zero's Personal Report)

I didn't know what to expect when I first stepped into the Sunway Convention Hall. People were already gathering at the entrance. The place was packed and everywhere you walk, you will at least bump onto a shoulder or two.

I was nervous at first, but the nerves calmed down as I caught eye of someone familiar to me, someone who is almost family.

With a hi and a pat on the back. I was ready. I clutched my hands and reminded myself... This is just like any other event... Only Bigger. I was ready for my first ever Comic Fiesta.

I felt the event picked up a lil too slowly at the beginning. The atmosphere was a little dull as it was still early. I got changed into my first character, Nathan Mahler from Blood+.

Yeap... I look gay

Okk... I was freezing in this costume. Very very very cold indeed. I walked around, shopped and saw some pretty interesting things, but it was still pretty much a lil slow as the the Blood+ crew went for a photo shoot without me T.T

The event only picked up when the group competition started. At around 2, I changed to my 2nd costume...

Kiryu Zero from Vampire Knight. I had fun walking around Zero, though I have to slap myself a few times when talking to people (Too into character till the emo mood stuck with me)

Soon, it was time for my competition to start, the One True Pairing, a contest of the best pairing on stage will walk away with the prize. I was waiting for this competition since I saw the competitor list.

Dante and Night pair along with

Sparda and Darkiris pair plus

Sky and Naru pair.

Tough competitors that I always wanted to have a head to head battle with.

Though we did not win... I had a lot of fun. I promise that I will come back stronger next time.

Check out our Skit

I guess the best part of the day was actually meeting up with Feli and Sam while getting meeting Kuro for the 1st time... and what do we do... Take lots of pictures.

Zero & Yuki

Night Class Gather

An event won't be complete without the BeatCam

See... Double.... Twice the Bloodlust

Twice the Emo

Twice the Bully

Thx for letting tag along everyone =]

With that ends Day 1's report

PS: Thx for the pics too XP
(They are not mine)

OH BTW... MERRY CHRISTMAS

Oh M Gee... No way

Mass Comm exams are over for me... now I have to wait a week for the Psychology Papers.

But I'm not here to bore about the exam details. It's about what happened the other day in the hallways of College.

I was busy drawing a tattoo on my Theressa's hand for the fun of it when some random girl, I think her friend came talking to her.

Random Girl: Blah blah blah
Theressa: Blah blah blah
Me: *hears something interesting and turns head towards random girl* Really?
Random girl: *stares for 5 seconds* Oh my God it's a guy
Stupid People aka My friends: *Burst out laughing*
Random girl runs away

Well... They had a good laugh... jeez... thanks guys

She saw me from this angle... Seriously... Do I look like a chick to you?

So to test this theory, Cheng Yi took that picture and showed it to a few people... Their answers were either

a) Oh she's hot
b) Looks like you Cheng Yi
c) Cannot decide

Seriously... You people are blind.... So tomorrow, I'm going for a haircut... It's snip snip time... how short?

No Idea... We shall see
