Adventures of today.

[yzak]

I had a whim to tote my camera around and had a lot of fun when I went out. I think I will do this sort of thing more often! Today I finished my wig with help from mom-- who sat there with it on while I messed around with it. Fun was had, as well as me telling her never to make her hair a light color. After that, I went to look for a cheap chessboard and something for my eyebrows for AX-- since they look ridiculous with the wig on. I also waited for my cousin to call me back about going to check out the luggage bag he has since I want one huge one to bring with me to CA.



Mah new iPod! Also you can see one of my eyebrows since I took that picture like ... right after testing out some kind of makeup to see if it covered it. (It did not.)



Tedward and Liz socute.



My win souvenir program. :D I am posing to match the pages featured.



A certain little princess did not want to be disturbed before I left today.



It was cloudy and muggy and hot out.



Dunkin Donuts near our house yes! Also the drycleaner place is moving across the street next to the DD, they're not open just yet.



A couple of theaters up my block heading toward Broadway. Gypsy and Xanadu.



First destination: Toys R Us!



Both yesterday and today when I went, I looked across the street and sobbed.



I love Toys R Us so much. The moving T-rex is the best thing ever.



A DDR machine!



There was not success in Toys R Us because I am not paying that much for chess pieces I just want to lick and pose with.



Times Square shot!



And then I was passing the Marquis to took a bunch of pictures of my show. I MISS IT SO MUCH ALREADY. Augh, it makes me feel all empty when I recall I can't see it again.







The Little Mermaid next to the Scientology org. Yes that is the main protest site each month. Right across the street, as you can see, from In The Heights at the Richard Rodgers.



Mmmm delicious Hershey's store.



And right across the street from ANOTHER chocolate store.



I did not get in touch with my cousin today. :(



Second destination: Ricky's! Which was a bust. The only eyebrow stuff they had was for dark brown and black. :/



The Clinton Grille/Bar X that burned just after the new year. Still boarded up with a for lease sign.



I HATE THAT GIANT FUCKING TREE I CAN'T SEE OUT MY WINDOW.



I scored Swoops for cheap, there were three cups inside. This was from the dollar store near my house. They had a chessboard there. But the pieces were more like random blobs, and I don't want an expensive ass board, but I want to be able to tell what the pieces ARE. I know there are cheap plastic ones out there. Hopefully going downtown will result in a win.



Tedward enjoys his applesauce treat. ♥




So today was pretty much all fail. No chessboard. Still have no idea what I am going to do for my eyebrows. Didn't get to go to my cousin's. I still need to get pink PJs so I can wear my wig with them for a while. Also have to get a thing for my chest as well as a new MOUSE because the one I have is not working right anymore.

They didn't have the spray bottles? D: Hmm. something like this might work? (lol it has sparkles) I can look for it at walgreens if you want. I would think any drug store should have stupid stuff like that. XD


ETA - okay that probably won't make them silver, it'll just make them SPARKLY, rofl. I think the best thing would be to look for like the lightest blonde possible. :O

Not that I saw! And most things I DID look at were like NOT FOR USE NEAR EYES, DON'T USE ON EYELASHES/BROWS and I was all. :[ Would spraystuff be okay, though? I just keep getting this mental image of like ... spray spray AAAUGH I'M BlIIIND!! Maybe if there are like ... I dunno what those adhesives are called that are skin colored, that I could just maybe use and then color over with something like an eye makeup pencil.

A certain little princess for the win XDD

A certain princess who, when Tedward was having his treat, wanted his own treat in the form of Tedward. :( He was like HAY HAY WHAT U DOIN CAN I EAT THAT THING ON YOUR HAND THERE.

[helike]

I love you XDDDD

This post reminds me that I need some kind of make-up for my eyebrows too!!! for Yuu-chan's outfit/wig, since that is the only one which is light coloured o.o;;;

[gaignun.livejournal.com]

IT'S TRUE I want to reenact that Austin Powers scene. Except it would be 100x better if there were an Athrun cosplayer there. (I HOPE THERE IS. I ALSO HOPE IF THERE IS, THEY WOULDN'T GIVE ME STRANGE LOOKS WHEN I ASK FOR THIS)

Ahaha yeah. GOOD LUCK cause lawd I can't find many things that don't suggest LOL DON'T USE THESE NEAR YOUR EYES.

You could, if all else fails, go into a goodwill or something and look for used chess sets that you could then wash with bleach.

[gaignun.livejournal.com]

Oooh. True that. ALL I WANT IS SOME HOT PLASTIC ACTION WHY CAN'T STORES HERE CATER TO MY COMPLETELY NORMAL NEEDS.

[kagu-chan.livejournal.com]

....my god that Toys R Us is gigantic.

[gaignun.livejournal.com]

It is. It's like three floors of glee.

[kagu-chan.livejournal.com]

Three floors of glee and they didn't have a single cheap chess set.

:/

[gaignun.livejournal.com]

Nope. They have this huge board game section and it was like BOO.

[kagu-chan.livejournal.com]

Well maybe a hobby shop or something hmm.

Also you should've taken a pic of your mom with the wig on.

[blackthornhiei.livejournal.com]

Chess sets don't have to be plastic.

I sent one of these to the States about two years ago http://www.frozen-layer.com/foro/index.php?s=&showtopic=90597&view=findpost&p=1269338 handcrafted, hand painted and they're not expensive, and pretty colorful and nice.

I can send you one, if you want ^_^ (and I'm in a gift-giving mood)

[gaignun.livejournal.com]

Haha yeah, I know. XD But most that are cheap are plastic. I'd take anything cheap, since I only want to take a few pieces to the con with me to do cosplay things with. AND YOU ARE SO NICE, I APPRECIATE IT, but I don't think it'd get here in time. XD I'm leaving on like, Tuesday.

[blackthornhiei.livejournal.com]

If you still want one of those just for yourself, I will still sent it.

Dollar stores and the toy section of supermarkets and other stores might have cheap ones.

[-laevatein-.livejournal.com]

yay for pictures!! :D
when did the Toys R Us get a DDR machine?! i totally missed that the last time i went there @__@;;

and i dunno if it's possible, but maybe you can try getting cheap face painting sticks and putting them on your eyebrows?? if you wanna go for white hairspray, maybe you can make a stencil with thick paper so you only get your eyebrows and shield the rest of your face

[gaignun.livejournal.com]

Haha they have one downstairs with the video games! I have no idea why there was on upstairs though.

And true ... I will keep that in mind!

[cerulean88.livejournal.com]

the most that i've ever gotten a glimpse of NY is through TV and watching project runway lol so these pictures are so much love hehe.

[gaignun.livejournal.com]
