Happy Belated Valentine!!

I believe it has been 2 years i did not blog... or at least did a proper blog. Must slap self to be more hardworking. Will try to update every 2 days to clear up back logs ><!!

I shall start 2015 blog with not the 1st shoot of the year, but the 3rd shoot instead lol~ Because it was my very 1st yolo shoot..like literally YOLO. So I saw my friend Mushroom was looking for a cosplayer for Valentine shoot, and so my curiosity made me dropped into the HUGE hole. Mush say she is looking for a Maki (a character from Lovelive) for the shoot, after asking some detail I agreed to them... WHY DID I EVEN AGREED?! HOW?! Lol~~I gotta rush out the costume in 1 week for the shoot, but i took  3days to finish it.. cause im lazy XD!!!! but I did a very very Fantastic job for the costume! (also I did 2 costume for the shoot), 1st time spending money on pretty laces & the effect was soo pretty XD! The Version for this costume requires lots of "Happy Valentine" painting.. & so I painted 2 huge logo & 4 times Happy valentine.. But I'm very very proud of the work i've done.

Costume 1

costume 2

p/s: I did 2 costume because 1 is for my friend

This is the 1st time I cosplay a character I've never tried before, I did not even have the wig to try on before I go for the shoot. I literally imagine the outlook with a very yolo makeup, went to the location, only get to try on with the wig. Thanks to my beautiful Vivien Onee-chan who kindly borrowed me her wig, I only manage to cos this character~ <3 I hope I did well for Maki, at least i think i did great for now ><!

My 2014 until now

Well....I'M SORRY FOR NOT UPDATING! ><!!!
Almost a year I did not do a proper update... OAO! Shall do a quick summary on half of my 2014~

ok~ so Cosplay 1st~
This year I did not cosplay much due to Time management with my college work. Because is my final year, I wanna focus on it more. I do still cosplay but mostly are done costumes (either I did it long ago/buy from taobao)

so my 1st cosplay is during January forVBG~ Kinda speed the costume out 1night before the event(last minit ppl ><!) Used 3 hrs to finish up so+- got imperfection somewhere...

Because the venue was kinda new & the event area is big with less ppl, me andthe photographers kinda did a mini shoot session. But during the whole event, my eyes got infection@@ so I didn't last long in my costume and I gotta take off my lenses

Hot Chocolate Is Revived!!

Last year I closed down one of my Blog: Hot Chocolate because I did not have time to manage two blogs,so I decided to close down Hot chocolate & maintain this blog for all uses of personal, Cosplay, Review etc~

Due to college Purpose, I'm reviving Hot chocolate. My lecturer wants us to open a blog for our Homework as it will be easy for them to check our work & also easy for us to arrange our portfolio in the future. I already have 3 blog, so I do not want to open another new one instead i revive my old one, also because this blog was used to put my fashion & homework stuff before so i'll just keep it update.

As for this Blog : Elyon Journey Of Life will still be used for all my personal stuff, cosplay, review etc~ It will not be closed down. I actually post more on this other blog but i will try to maintain balance on both sides so readers can check out both of my blogs from time to time.

Also, I've changed both of my blog layout for a new look.. Photo banner will temporary still remain until i got a better photo XD!

Please keep looking out for my blog as i'll be more active on blogging from today onwards. I'll not slck off like before

Love, Babyelyon

Koji Honpo Dolly Wink 2nd workshop

I was glad when i heard Koji is going to do a 2nd workshop for Dolly Wink. Last year When I know about the news, it was already to late to sign up also I had Cosplay Event During the same day. At 1st i thought it will be just a simple hang around and stuff, but i remember reading a post about the work shop last year, IT WAS SO GOOD. This year I finally got the chance to join this Workshop it was A sucess and i Would like to to say "お疲れ様" to allthe stuff and also Ogawa-san&Mikano-san that flew from japan for this workshop.

Actually i did not took many picturesof the workshop cause i met few of my cosplay friends and we started chatting (actually more of gossiping) XD!! The event started a lil boring cause I personally dislike slideshows, but I do learn more about the history &products of Koji and makes me wanna support their product more.

My 1st eyelashes was from Koji Spring heart series. I Love it somuch! it looks natural! But because ,its my 1st lashes, i did not know how to take care of it so it spoiled. Then I tried Using Dolly wink Products (Review from previous blog post). at 1st the price were shocking~so i always wait for it to be on discount ><!! Most important lesson~ All Koji's Fake eyelashes are Handmade~

Back to today's workshop, When we walk in, We saw the table line up wif baskets of make up products. (p/s: See the eyelash Curler there? It Is Extremely GOOD! Hosnestly! It does curl our lashes up to the max)

During the slideshow, we were introduced to their old& new products

This is one of Koji's New Product, Lash Concierge. This line of product is focusing on female that wanted to put fake lashes to look pretty but also not too dramatic at the same time. As we all know, Dolly wink eyelashes is more fora dramatic ,kawaii look. For this, they tone it down and also called it the Natural Fake eyelashes. For each number,they got a percentage written at the side. It is use to indicate how natural the lashes will be~

So I always say Japanese are genius! because some ppl may not suit a certain design of fake lashes, Koji actually did a tester for ppl to test it on before they buy it. This is very very considerating~ Also this is handmade too XD!

After The slideshow, We finally had our hands on the product for testing. They were kind for us to test their new Lash Concierge. I choose number 8 for a natural but slightly dramatic look. But to me, it still looks natural. LOVE IT TO MAX! KOJI! PLS PUT IT ON SELL ASAP!  

Because I used to put fake lashes, I did it before they started teaching the tutorial~ Oops~ They also teach on how to put on the bottom fake lashes,how to clean them,store them and how to draw eyebrow, I appreciate those tips and lesson.

Last but not least, Thank you for all the Door Gift. I Really love it! 

Love, Babyelyon

Recent cosplay~ (event version2013)

OH YEA!!! finally updating my cosplay life of the year.. lol~as u all see the title named event version, mean only event i attend this year, will update my photoshoots of the year soon

This year i did not attend many events. i was suppose to go for an event at penang but dueto some personal issue, i did not went.. QAQ... My 1st event of the year was C2AGE which was organized by HELP College at thier campus. I only went for Day2 for that event, actually i wasn't planning to go but i had a group so i went. The campus was very~~high.. 1 thing i super love their college is their escalator~ because as a fashion designer, we gotta carry alot of material,tools&dummy to college most of the time..nmy college only had stairs~ QAQ

Back to my cosplay...It was my 1st time having a planned group for an event, i used to always cosplay solo cause i couldn't find group/partner and its easier to walk around to meet friends. Finally i had a group for an event, YAY!! Thank you my dear besties mushroom for the invite to join the group of my favourite anime and I get to cosplay my Idol anime version AKB0048 Watanabe Mayu type03 aka Mayuyu~ 

I'm love AKB48,the top female Idol group in japan & my oshimen(Idol) is Mayuyu~ she is alsothe same age as me and is older than me for 14 days~ XD! Back to topic~ because i once cosplayed as Ranka Lee Snow version (can refer it HERE) I thought it was special and AKB0048 do have white costume but only appear twice, so I suggested to my group to do the special white version instead of the normal red and black checkered one. not saying more~ITS PICTURE TIME!

Day2 I cosplayed as Ranka Lee again~ with another white dress again~ which was almost the same as last year but different version... This version appeared at the very last scene of Sayonara no Tsubasa the movie. It was the scene where Ranka came out and stand in front ofthe crashed Macross after Alto's disappearance and Sheryl went into come. At that moment, Ranka sang Hoshi Kira while looking up in the sky believing Alot is coming back, also as the ending of the movie.

Being myself

Hey yo~ I know I did not blog for quite a while, and yes, i do miss blogging. I was very active during my semester break but ever since my new sem started, i couldn't find time out for blogging, everyday is assignment,coursework, competition... design students work really really hard and is very stressful.

Lately I've been thinking, am I trying to hard to be myself? I really don't know, I feel like myself is fading away, I feel so lost. I had this dream few weeks ago and it is stuck inside my head until now. I couldn't remember the Major part of the dream but I remember someone accused me for something I did not do, I reply with just a happy smile and take all the blame. Then a guy walked up to me and say "你不要以为笑笑就可以抹掉一切，看看你心里深处就能发现你的痛苦" means: Don't think that if you smile you cover up your feeling, look deep inside you, you will see how hurt you are. Not only the dreams, even my friend told my to show what I feel. I remember talking to my senior the other day, she said she can read people, so I asked her to read me, this is what she said about me: You are a very happy girl,you don't show much of your feelings, you are pleasing people too much. Stop listening to other people.

I admit, I do hide my feelings, I don't really show what I really feel, but I think is not necessary to show it out cause no one really cares do they? They will just think I'm annoying and trying to attract attention. I've been like that every since I'm in High school. I don't know why but I always get haters without knowing them, they said I'm annoying and I'm like "Hey, do I even know you,i also didn't do anything to you". Is it just me thinking to much or I just so happen to have this " Annnoying Aura"??

I'm really lost, these days I've been like a crazy girl randomly laughing alone myself, but after a moment,i realize my face change, I start thinking,am I covering myself for something? what am I covering for? Why do I need to cover myself?

What should I do? I don't really know myself~

I know this is along boring post with no pictures, but i'm really confused and stress these days. Anyone can help? I doubt so, right? Cause this is my personal problem~
love,Babyelyon~
