New Books- Reveiws coming soon!

YEY! New Books!

So anyone that really knows me knows how I have a love affair with books and reading. Like I read a lot! Since I have some time (after sewing for Anime Conji) I am getting back to reading more- which I love!

ANYWAYS....here are the new books that I have been gifted (thanks mom!) or ordered for myself ^.^

The Accessible Pet, Equine and Livestock Herbal: choosing abundant wellness for your creatures:  I am really excited about this one! It was a Christmas present from mom and so far I have only been able to skim it. Already I can tell this is an invaluable resource!

The Thinking Beekeeper: I am really interested in this one becasue it is about raising bees in a more "natural" hive. I am really interested in doing any method that is better for the bees- especially with the scary decline of bees happening in the world. 

Down to Earth Natural Horse Care: First off I love that this book came with a little personal note from the author in the front thanking me for my purchase! I got this book becasue I am interested in natural horse care since I would like to have some again in the near future. I am about half way through this book and I am loving it so far! (Full review to come soon!)

So those are the current books I am going through right now- full reviews to come on all these soon!

 

Anime Conji 2013

Me as Orihime from Bleach (Maid Version)

Hello everyone! Well once again it has been too long since my last post. I do have a good excuse this time I was really busy sewing my heart out for Anime Conji 2013!

I really had a blast at this convention. It was my first with an exhibitor booth and doing panels! I was also featured in the Fashion Show as a designer. 

Nick and Major got to join me for the whirlwind weekend at the lovely Town and Country Resort and Convention Center in San Diego. The hotel was great the only issue was the elevators kept breaking down and we were on the 6th floor O.o

I really wish I had gotten better photos of me in my cosplay and outfits- especially since it was my first time wearing contacts and all. I hope to remedy that soon by shooting with a professional photographer ^.^

Here I am with Vampy and 2 beautiful members of Chocolate Covered Cosplay at the Cosplay Industries round table. I was here representing myself (Chibi Bubble Ninja) and Kosplay Underground. It was such an honor to be part of this panel as all of these great women have way more experience then me in the Cosplay community. Especially when Asako Yamamoto (Chief Editor of COSMODE magazine in Japan) joined the panel.  The best part was that everyone was so inviting and down to earth. Vampy said something along the lines of we are all just a bunch of nerds out to have fun and dress up- and I have to agree.

I did another panel "Kosplay Underground Tells All" (on behalf of Kosplay Underground). I have to thank the entire audience that was at this panel. I had technical difficulties for about 20 minutes into my panel but you were all so wonderful in sticking around and letting me entertain you while we waited.

Here are some great shots from the Fashion Show and a Video (below)! Some of the outfits are still available on my website (and all available for custom order)!

Also I have to give a thank all my wonderful models for showing up and doing such a great job!

Here is the link to the Fashion show video: (For some reason I cannot get the video to show up here)

My part of the show starts 11:20 into the video- if you don't want to watch all of it.

So in short I had a blast and met a lot of great people. Now to plan for Anime Expo!

More New Headshots & VAMPIRE TREAT VIDEO

Well I have been meaning to post these for the last few weeks- been soo busy...but I will post on that later.

SO new headshots from The Casting Director!

Also DUN DUN DUN DUN DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNN!

VAMPIRE TREAT IS OUT!

My New Anime Obsession

AMNESIA

Ok, so I wanted to post more about anime and my cosplay so since this is my new favorite anime I had to post it! I will admit that I now have a fan girl crush O.O (As a result I think I must cosplay them all >.<)

I am a little bummed because I discovered that this is an anime based on a game- which I immediately wanted- but is only available in Japanese...which I can't read or speak. 

Side note- I contacted 9mm SFX to see what it would run me to get Ikki eyes- so for those interested you can get a pair for the price of $350....Almost totally worth it right *swoon*

Anyways I would recommend this anime to any one interested in a romance based show. I am really excited for the next episode to see what happens next. 

Busy Busy life.......

So it has been AGES since I posted again. But I have good reason- life has been so busy!

In the acting and modeling front- I just  finished filming "Vampire Treat" with the Casting Director. Which if you are an actor in Los Angeles I fully endorse this place. Amazing service and people! 

In fact that is where I got these great new Headshots: 

I have more on the way they are with the editor right now. I should also have a post with the release of "Vampire Treat" in about a month- so stay tuned for that!

I also launched my Official Acting/Modeling site.

Besides that I also launched my home sewing services: Chibi Bubble Ninja's Sewing Cafe.

I did a video interview with Kosplay Underground: 

This month I also started working as an assistant to another seamstress that takes cosplay commissions. So my day is spent at the law firm on the phone and filing paperwork and my nights are full of sewing. >.< But I am very greatful because I am learning a lot and it motivates me to work on my own projects.

I am committed to keeping this blog more up to date from now on. I have many book reviews to post along with progress updates on personal sewing projects I am working on. So if you are interested stay tunes for that as well :) 

In the mean time you can also like my new pages on facebook! Links posted on your right :)
