By: amuletaddy Date: November 2, 2010, 12:48 pm --------------------------------------------------------- History is my fave subject, i have a funny teacher who teaches us, erm... like 13 students, most being dumb weirdos, and i have like the highest target in the class. She sat down with me before the german exam and said, with a serious face i add, "Please keep in your hitler torretes till AFTER the exam, no hand movements either." Funny enough, in the big hall i WAS doing mini salutes :-[ #Post#: 2800-------------------------------------------------- Re: Conventions, anyone? By: guppyvisje Date: January 6, 2011, 9:45 am --------------------------------------------------------- How did we get from conventions to history lessons? o.0 I just reply to both~ I loved history in highschool. It was my favorite subject. Our teacher was really crazy and funny, and was like a walking encyclopdia. (is that how you spell it in english?) Especially when it came to Napoleon. (He's upsessed with the guy really..) But I'm currently studying anthropology, so no history subject for me. I'm concidering taking a history minor, though. And conventions.. I think I'm going for allmost three years now. I've been to 5 conventions. Chibicon (x2), Tsunacon (x2) and the yaoicon. (I really had the time of my life overthere x3) Do you cosplay as well? It's my first year cosplaying now. As Canada 8D #Post#: 2802-------------------------------------------------- Re: Conventions, anyone?

XD [/quote] THAT WAS YOUR FIRST CONVENTION? //mine was a bloody motorbike convention. xD hnng. cosplaying is super expensive. the good stuff is from china, so you pay most of it towards postage. so it's usually like 170-200. D: i'm totally planning to cosplay but i have to save for a new laptop as it is broken beyond repair, but yeah. MARK MY WORDS, ONE DAY I SHALL HAVE A COSPLAY TOO. ;'D #Post#: 2805-------------------------------------------------- Re: Conventions, anyone?

XD True, but buying just the main part of the cosplay + shipping can cost, a little over 100 even if it is the good stuff. The rest such as the wig, footwear and props all depends. Sometimes you can find them in your average clothes shop. I'm not planning to make it a top hobby for me, but I would like to have at least one cosplay just to see how it goes. : D #Post#: 2806-------------------------------------------------- Re: Conventions, anyone? By: guppyvisje Date: January 7, 2011, 11:36 am --------------------------------------------------------- @alchemyMisuse If my memory is correct.. You live in belgium. right? F.A.C.T's is in belgium, I believe... It is somewhat manga related. Otherwise.. If your not living too southern. Why don't you come to our awesome Dutch conventions? You could tag along with me~ *winkwink* But, buying good and complete cosplay is expensive indeed. ^^' But I'm in for the low cost Cosplay~ And I only have one. I bought my jacket at a regular clothing store, at a 50% discount. I sewed the brown straps, and got the wig from a regular costume store, and added the curl myself. (Though that was the most awefull job ever xD) I allready owned brown snowboots and a white bear. And I wear glasses allready. In total, it was totally underneath the 100 euro's. ;D And I really want to take sewing lessons so I can sew the next costume myself. x3 But sadly, I don't have time for that. But I f you could cosplay. Who would you cosplay as? #Post#: 2809-------------------------------------------------- Re: Conventions, anyone? By: AlchemyMisuse Date: January 7, 2011, 2:23 pm --------------------------------------------------------- oooh *winkwink* there's a possibility my family will move to the Netherlands because my dad's new job is there but of course I have to stay behind because of uni... xD But that means I'll be in the Netherlands during every vacation :o we could meet up at a con someday ^^ my parents would move to the north , near Amsterdam, Hoofdorp, *idk what else is there xD* My mom thinks we'll be hated because dutch people hate germans AND belgians so we're double screwed! xDD who would I cosplay as, good question, no idea xD what's your cosplay? #Post#: 2810-------------------------------------------------- Re: Conventions, anyone? By: AnimeAmy26c Date: January 7, 2011, 2:24 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Scotland doesn't ever seem to have any good cons...or any at all, to be honest. A friend in London had said I should go down there with another friend to go to a London one. But I have been to a Hetalia meet-up thing in Glasgow and I'm going to try get a Hungary (or Lithuania) cosplay for the next meet-up in the Summer or at Halloween. [s]Me and the Hungary that was there have began an evil plot to steal Prussia's vital regions and take over the world and as their is two of us the world would not stand a chance!! >D[/s] ***************************************************** (DIR) Previous Page (DIR) Next Page
