Hey everyone!

It's been quite a while. Perhaps I should start some entries with a greeting besides 'hey everyone' or some similar variation. Oh well, not this time!
The past weekend has been pretty fantastic. It was the selection of the Korean team for WCS, and a bunch of cosplay guests from Japan (a billion) and Thailand (2) flew in.
Let me tell you about my new friends. THEY ARE AWESOME.

I also got to see some old friends, like mistah edo san sempai kun chan and Adrian, who was randomly here on business, and the always fabulous Yui and Mino ♥ ♥

Fay was from the 2007 Thailand WCS team, and she's back this year with Thay/Say (still can't pronounce her name correctly), herself from Thailand 2008, she cosplayed as the Dark Magician card for their performance last year. I can totally believe that Fay is the best in her country, I have never seen someone prettier/make a hotter boy in my life. Oh my god, I have such a girlcrush on her.

So anyways, Friday night I went over to the hotel in Gangnam and everyone who had arrived went out for dinner and drinking. Perhaps you should make a note of that, it marks the beginning of a trend for the weekend! So anyway, I caught a ride back to my neighborhood thank god, because it seriously takes an hour by subway. The next day, I shoved Asuka + some overnight stuff in a suitcase and went back to the hotel around 1 pm. Everyone finished changing by 3:30 (COSPLAYERSSSSSSSSSSS) and we headed to Comic World. I'm pretty sad about all the photos that people might have taken of me in Asuka, I didn't use nearly enough bobby pins and the stupid thing kept sliding back so much that I had a fivehead. Nay, a sixhead. Disaster. :C

Everyone else was super cute and gorgeous though.

So anyways, after comic world we all changed and then proceeded to eat and drink!. And I crashed around 10:30, like a grandmother.
The next day we all dragged ourselves outside like recovering heroin addicts at 7 am TAT
To take a bus to Everland!

Everland is Korea's answer to 6 flags, and it's pretty awesome. It actually felt exactly the same, except there was a giant gorgeous flower garden, so of course everyone was all UNNNNNNNG PICTURES.

Karajstcgsan, whatever his name was, came with Fey from Thailand, and I seriously mistook him for a girl until he spoke. So pretty. Very very shy though. Anyways, he cosplayed from Persona on Sunday and I just wanted to run home, make Pink Thing, and then run back. Ungh, he was so perfect. Everyone else cosplayed from Code Geass or Macross Frontier, it was pretty cute.

I made the worst Korean ever and cosplayed from Goong! Everyone else was super hot, though.
Then came the Korean WCS performance. A couple of the guests did exhibition performances, and there's a sailor senshi team that does a song or two from the Myus every time, and the rest were competing to win.

So blah blah blah, after it was over, there was a photosession, and sort of a meet-and-greet and then we changed and WENT ON RIDES.

So 6 flag afficianados, you know the Wooden Harlot that I don't really remember? Everland's got one that's just as good. In fact, it's even steeper, and longer, but it didn't have YOU GUYS riding it with me, so it can't be better.
I am meeting new, nice people though, people are very friendly and nice here once you're beyond 'perfect stranger' status. Like, if I was bleeding on the sidewalk I think people might just step over my dying body, but once they know your name everyone's super helpful.

WORDS WORDS WORDS, you want pictures!
So this is Fay and Karatsan, aka the most beautiful people in the world. THAILAAAAAAAAAAAAND.
