COSPLAYING....A HOBBY

My daughter wants me to blog about her cosplaying activities because she wants more followers on her facebook and instagram account.

She started cosplaying after attending C2AGE 2012  in Tropicana City Mall last year.

KM self created costume on her 2nd event and posing with a young fan.

Of course she has to ask our permission and after some serious thinking and understanding what is cosplaying, we allowed her to cosplay with her promising us that she will not neglect her studies,

Playing the character of Yuuki Cross in the anime series Vampire Knight during her 3rd event.

Being a first timer, we do not know where to buy the costume so her first one was tailored made.

It was tiring because we have to hunt for the right material and accessories for the character.

Things gets much easier after my daughter participate  in her first cosplaying event.

We got to know a really friendly cosplayer and her mother. She gave us all the information and contacts on cosplaying and that really helps and save us the hassle of shopping for materials and going to the tailor again.

Basically, cosplaying is a hobby enjoyed mostly by young adults but there are also some older ones which has been a pioneer in this hobby.

Although I do not have much knowledge about the history of cosplaying, but after attending quite a fair deal of event with my daughter,  in my personal opinion, this is a healthy hobby for young people.

For some, cosplayer may look weird when they are dressed up complete with colorful wigs and out of the world costume.

Alice and the paparazzi...

I was feeling the same too initially but my thoughts change after seeing how this young people painstakingly goes all way out to dress and fit into their character is really admirable.

My daughter has been attending cosplaying events for one year and I am happy that she has also kept her promise.

She has perform well in her studies and she is able to divide her time between play and responsibilities.
