"Happy New Year!"
Before I start, I want to say a huuuuuuuuuge thank you to

who has given me a premium membership to DA. My page has never been so pretty before, I'm so touched, thank yooooou!

And now onwards!
I didn't update my journal much last year, I'm quite addicted to tumblr atm so I focused more on uploading things there but I shall endeavor to try and get back more into the swing of here as well!
Last year, I managed to do 12 new cosplays but this year I'd like to try and double that! I'm getting older now and I know there will have to be a point where I have to say, "No more cosplay" so for the last couple of years that my face holds up I'm going to try and get through all the characters in my backlog that I desperately want to do! I also have a handful of cosu that I have no good photos of, so I'm going to try and get on top of that so I can stop worrying about them! XD
At the moment, my beautiful friend

is visiting which is such a treat! She's not only a great cosplayer/photographer/artist but one of the nicest and most gorgeous people you will ever meet! I'm super excited to be doing a few shoots with her, and helping her shoot some of her cosu ~

I'm not completely sure what I'll be doing convention wise this year but at the moment it looks like:
- AI-CON (in march)
- Gold Coast Nova (in April)
- Smash (in August)
- MAI-CON (in October?)
- Brisnova (in November)
Not too many this year, because I'd also like to try and save enough money to go to Japan with the glorious

and

to support them in their WCS journey as they supported Jess and I when we went on ours

So that's all from me now~ To all my new watchers, "Hello! And thank you for following me!" and to all the continuing ones, "Let's have another great year together!"
Thank you, everyone! ~
