It&#8217;s not because I&#8217;m lazy, but rather that I know I&#8217;ll start working TOO hard. Working on something for just one hour? Never heard of that. It doesn&#8217;t matter if it is 3 in the morning, I will work for hours on end.<\/p>\n<p>Not on school work, of course. Cosplay.<\/p>\n<p>At this point, just putting fabric next to me is a dangerous decision. I cannot be trusted with it. That curtain over there? boom. Now it&#8217;s a dress. That pillow? It&#8217;s now being used to stuff my sailor moon sleeves. Those black boots? Now they&#8217;re red. I can even turn plastic into armor if i need to.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4506\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/neptune-e1539630758200.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"3024\" height=\"4032\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/neptune-e1539630758200.jpeg 3024w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/neptune-e1539630758200-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/neptune-e1539630758200-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/neptune-e1539630758200-1200x1600.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To be honest, I don&#8217;t know how I got to this point. When I started back in 2014, it took me months to even sew a simple dress. Yet, this past weekend, I managed to do nearly an entire outfit within a day. Sure, now I know how to sew. Therefore, it&#8217;s easier to get stuff done. However, I don&#8217;t really remember anything from it. At one point I was cutting fabric, and then sewing, and suddenly is was 2AM. And I swear it was just 3PM a few minutes ago.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe its the stress? I do put the &#8216;stress&#8217; in seamstress.<\/p>\n<p>This particular project is one that I&#8217;m very stressed about. In November, this lovely sailor scout will be presented alongside a group of 23 Sailor Moon characters. There&#8217;s no repeat of characters, so that means I got really lucky in having being picked to be one of the scouts. Especially this one. Of course the mains were the first to get chosen- Sailor Moon, Sailor V, Chibi Moon, ect&#8230; But still, they were going pretty fast. I had always wanted to cosplay Neptune, and thankfully I was able to grab that spot while it was still open.<\/p>\n<p>The villains and background characters aren&#8217;t bad- don&#8217;t get me wrong. I just,,, I really wanted to be Neptune.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4505\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/neptune-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2563\" height=\"2538\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/neptune-1.jpeg 2563w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/neptune-1-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/neptune-1-300x297.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/neptune-1-768x761.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/neptune-1-1024x1014.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/neptune-1-1200x1188.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Excuse my face.<\/p>\n<p>Anyways, once I got started on her, I just didn&#8217;t really stop. Some call that hard work. Others call it an addiction. I&#8217;ll let you decide.<\/p>\n<p>In other news, when I went to go get fabric for this, I saw my friend! There&#8217;s an older lady named Jan that works at the Jo-Anns where I get my fabric. We always enjoy talking to each other. She&#8217;ll ask about my projects, We&#8217;ll talk about cats. Shes just my cool older friend that works across the counter.<\/p>\n<p>And that was pretty much my whole weekend summed up!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have bad habits.
