All Hail ALA! (ALA 13 Day 2)
This day starts off very slowly for me but I think I kinda need it since Day 0 and 1 were very hectic for me so it's nice for me just to chilling around and taking it easy. So it's both blessing and curse for me but I didn't mind. It forced me to improvise like what I do at every con.
Grim Reaper cosplay! This was 2nd OC cosplay I brought to ALA so far but this is just for purely fun, that's all.
"Tobi, you gotta get up somehow. Today will be so beastly epic day."
Still working on cosplay. He would not finish it until evening. I think he really appreciate how peaceful our room is so he can work without any distractions.
Showing up at Fist of the North Star panel to support my friend Omar.
I had no idea that many modern anime referenced Fist of the North Star so I want to watch it for sure. He also show an episode of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, which is awesome stuff.
To the pool deck!
Lauren! She's in purple wig. Isn't she awesome cosplayer?!?
"I dunno if I want to do it, you guys."
"Lauren, you gotta do it!"
"Okay, I will do it!"
Lauren is now charming the mermaids in the pool.
This may be highlight of ALA for me, next to Trevor's drunk session with Siri.
"Yes, come to Sinbad, you pretty mermaids."
Chilling with mermaids.
"See? I did chilling with mermaids."
Yes, Lauren is awesome.
Lauren's friend. He looked at me funny because I didn't exactly fit in Lauren's cosplay group, lol.
I brought Lauren's shoes and phone to her.
Watching her text.
I can see my room!
Magi gathering!
Vocaloid gathering. Very crazy.
Want to grab some foods from con suite but the line was too long so I'm like... screw it.
Really cool Vocaloid cosplayers.
Chose to remove my make up because it was getting very itchy as hell.
I see you, Tobi!
Tobi is just chilling while Cristian is frantically working on his cosplay.
The view of Homestuck gathering.
Very chaotic as hell.
"WTF are they doing?"
Meeting up with Emily and Morgan before they leave to their room.
Went to pool deck to see Deadpool cosplayer doing crazy stuff.
Cute cosplayer in pool for the win!
I'm very glad that Tobi came with us.
"This is for Facebook!"
Chilling with Ryan for a bit.
Met up with Omar whose is going to parking garage for photo shoot session.
Watching Omar do his magic with cosplayers.
Hang out with Turkey for a little bit. We chat about how we got left out by our friends for today so we're just chilling around. It was good to see her again and I'm very happy to see her cosplay again after taking long break. I hope that I can see her again.
"Let's go to pool deck."
Ah, very lively place.
I told Hidey that Omar can take pictures of her if she want to so she accept it.
For some reasons, I'm rather fond of me taking pictures of Omar taking pictures of Hidey. Very Inception-ish.
Hidey is chatting with cute girl on the bench before meeting up with Heaven at front of hotel.
Heaven!
Chilling with them before photo shoot in parking garage starts.
Nicole on left. They're super awful popular with the photographers. I admire Nicole a lot for how she treat me. She could have treat me awful like other high level cosplayers does but she didn't do that so she has lot of my respect. She seems to be very happy to see me like at last PMX, which surprised me. I sincerely hope that she will find a lot of success because she's truly cool person and I like how she don't mind high five me for a lulz.
Chilling in parking garage to setting up the photo shoot.
This is one of the most entertaining photo shoots I've ever been to. I was really enjoying myself big time, even if I wasn't cosplaying from Homestuck at this time. This is what cosplay is all about, in my opinion. Just have fun and let go and create lot of great memories.
After Homestuck photo shoot is over, everybody went back to the hotel but I saw other photo shoot at other side of garage so I went over to see what's up.
Jono is taking pictures of Chun Li cosplayer here.
"Nicole, that's perfect. For next picture, I need you to do this pose."
Nicole is being all smexy.
Never have I seen so many photographers in one area before. I mostly observe whole thing and taking the pictures strictly for a blog. I don't consider myself to be great photographer but I use camera to document my time at con.
Jono soon come up to me and ask me why I was here. I told him that I was interesting in see how photographers work and I'm just observing this event for this blog. I'm sure it's pretty highly unusual for non-photographer/cosplayer to stumble across photo shoot and chilling, lol.
"That's it, guys. This is fantastic."
John Lynn being all wiped out.
Brittany! She's awesome girl. She's other high level cosplayer whom I get along with.
Jono is instructing her on how to play air guitar.
"I'm queen of this world!"
Jono is now doing photo shoots with Nicole. Sweet Jesus, I'm so impressed with Nicole's stamina for doing long session of photo shoot.
"Hmm, this isn't quite bouncy yet."
Jono is doing really awesome job.
Ever so sexy Nicole. :DDD
My favorite moment of this photo shoot. Jono and John were moving back to take better pictures but ending up crashing into each other.
Hotel worker told us to GTFO. :(
"Look at me, John!"
He's all happy guy.
Deadpool cosplayers!
Chilling with them for a bit before Alex left us to get more pictures.
Omar is taking pictures of Dio cosplayer.
Then I walk to artists alley and I suddenly saw Lauren. I was like..... Lauren! She smiled at me so we went to hang out with Omar.
Me with Lauren and Dio. :DDD
Omar is taking pictures of Lauren while he's at it.
Nicole is snapping some pictures on her phone.
Me with Nicole.
Walking to Carl Jr because I need munchies. It was only couple of blocks so it wasn't too bad.
Waiting for my order to come in. I was chatting to this friendly older black gentleman about the con. It was super neat.
Munchies time.
Mark and Rita. He want me to go to jacuzzi with them so we change into our swimsuit and went to jacuzzi right next to pool.
Very rowdy jacuzzi. I feel bit of an outsider but it was interesting to see how crazy they get. Every time they see really sexy people, they would scream at them to get into jacuzzi with them. Didn't stay for too long because I want to change into John God Tier to look for more adventures.
Took an elevator to Ballroom floor and see Kimmie and Jessica are playing card game.
Lia and Fiona!
They're looking for 11th doctor cosplayer but to no avail.
Chilling in front of hotel with cool girls.
That's Elaina. I told myself when I change into John God Tier cosplay that I would find new person to talk and hang out with when I walk out of the room. I succeed in this quest by meeting Elaina for the first time so it was cool experience.
Went to rave but it's not really my scene.
Ending up talking to this girl named Jessica about various stuff like cosplay, anime, and cons.
Going to Lia's room for pizza and chilling session.
Very nice room.
Wow... Lia's room has really nice view.
Enjoying the view with the girls.
Chilling with Elaina.
Enjoying the pizza with the girls.
Lia sure is addicting to RPing on her phone.
Soon, everyone got really tired so we all went to our rooms to rest up for tomorrow.
I'm very glad that I got to hang out with super cool people on this day so it's all good. I'm very pleased with my experience so far. Good times, great memories!
