BANANAS GO AMORE

My oh My it's been a while since we have updated!

But less explaining, more speaking:)

I would like to write a long list of beautiful costumes here and tell how we are proceeding but right now, we don't even have any actual plans!

Mainly because there aren't any conventions closing up and because we live in two different cities and don't discuss as much and get those stupid ideas:D

Have an idea for a cosplay? tell us! We are more than happy to get ideas:D

Oh, but why am I writing if there's nothing cosplay related?

Oh well there is!

I've been sending some e-mails, organizing things a little and BOWCHICKAWAHWAH We are now bringing something new to the finnish conventions!

Back in the summer when we attended Närcon (so many memories ;__;) We also attended to this event called 'SpeedMeeting'

Basically it's an event where people stand facing one another, discuss for 2-3 minutes and switch partners! And if you want to leave, then leave! And come back any time:D

And then, as we sailed back to Finland, our synchronized twin-minds began to come up with an idea:
Why don't we take this idea, and bring it to Finnish conventions as well?

I mean, every Finn knows how hard it is to make new friends?  Finnish conventions need this!

Lonely? Let Momo and Poke find you friends! LET'S BE FRIENDS WITH EACH OTHER!

No one is lonely when everyone has friends, done deal!

Other than that, we are really struggling with choosing the costumes! Maybe we could do something like this?

Would be easy and cheap? I don't know how conventions think about nudity though...

Well, I think I'm done here

Yours,

Momo

(and Poke who has nothing to do with writing this)

P.S

AFTER TRACON

Oh hi,

Yes. We still exist.

Firstly, I'm sorry for this break between our updates. We have been so busy that we've been too busy to be busy. Get it?

No rly. Poke has been having her finals (that are now partly over!) and I, Momo have been doing something unnecessary like moving out from home to another city and starting at a new school. You know, easy stuff.

I guess this explains it well enough:D

Let's get back to business!

After recovering from Närcon, our minds totally forgot cosplay and we left to Italy without actually realizing that after that trip we should be ready with our costumes for Tracon (Black Widow and Iron Man) which, by then were only started  at the state of our minds, and of course - they weren't ready to be wore  to Tracon so we had to make a change of plans!

In a very short period of time (5 hours) we (or Poke) came up with these costumes!

Lady flash and Black Canary both from DC Comics and it was such a relieve to get them done! At least, almost in time, which leads us to the topic of our Panel: 'The collected excuses for cosplayers' or ' cossaajan kootut selitykset (in finnish)' and it was a blast! I'd add a video here but I guess we don't have it (yet?)

From our point of view, it didn't went too well since it was our first panel and all and we finished it *ahem* a *ahem* day *ahem* before *ahem* but all the feedback I've read has been positive and lovely and I've been going like:

Thank you everyone!

The rest of the day went by as we randomly hung around the con area and finally went home - nothing much really!

The next day we were supposed to have a bleach group but we ended up not having it after all since Poke couldn't find her hakamas! And we spent all night looking for them! Just imagine: Us digging up all over our house trying to find a pair of hakamas! We finally ended up like this:

and ended up cosplaying:

These characters you've already seen. So nothing much.

We actually didn't do anything special this day either. Just chilling and stuff-

Actually the whole convention went by without us even noticing it:D

So let's wait until Desucon Frostbite so we can give you an actual con report:D

I've actually got a liittle something going on with that too so we might be there hosting a program!  A more interactive one this time so wait for it!

Okay. That's it for now so byebye little cupcakes<3

With Bananas and love,

Momo (and Poke who almost paid attention while I wrote this)

P.s

WATCH OUT, WE GOT A BADASS OVER HERE!

Hello again!(still not dead ha-ha-ha!)

This time it's me, Momo, writing! So Poke can't brag about me being inactive!!111

Yeah.

So it's been a day since we got back from Desucon Frostbite and it was awesome!

We were cosplaying Abel Nightroad crusnik 80% and Cain Nightlord crusnik 100% from Trinity blood. Here is me as Abel Nightroad:

..and this is Poke as Cain. Those little wings were just about 3 meters wide... My wings were 1,2 m high but not as wide, thank god! I think it was a little tricky to walk with those wings..

Now. What are we doing on stage?

Here's what happened: we were just chillin' our costumes when suddenly, a wild cosplay person appears! She told us that we were selected to Hall cosplay! There were two series: Frosti-chan's favourites and Technically hard costumes. We were the ones with technically hard ones.. (no way!) AND when we arrived to back stage (fuck yeah, back stage! V.I.P Bitc...yeah) we saw our cosplay idol who was representing Finland in World cosplay summit just chillin' around and going to compete in a same serie. Wait..what. We have never ever competed with our costumes and then suddenly a wild cosplay competition appears and we are on stage and what?! Being on stage wasn't new to us since we had already been there but then suddenly the wild jury appeared. We hadn't considered the fact that we were to be checked by them. I was deadly nervous and it was quite awkward but I loved the judge called Casper! He was very nice and funny:D

We didn't win anything but at least we have now competed!

After Hall cosplay we went back to our hotel and partied hard! (WHAT IS LOVE!) Later on we saw someone commenting that in our level there were some drunken idiots yelling...well.

WHO WOULD IT BE?

yeah.

Consider the fact that we were totally sober. But it wasn't us.

On Sunday we were cosplaying these triplets from kuroshitshuji:

The third part of the triplet is our fellow cosplayer and friend Hisi :D Thank you for participating!

The funny fact is that we were almost as popular as when we had our 3-meter wings and gravity defying hair...Fate.

Epic cosplay is epic.

Then off to another business: Närcon 2012

We were on the closing of the con and there was this super cute guy from sweden telling about Närcon with all it's swimming pools, Milk shake machines and anything you can imagine...

SO, when I got back to Tampere I googled Närcon and all the prices and stuff and found out that it would only cost about 80 euros all included! SO CHEAP!!!!

Means, we are so going!!

Now. Time to end this blog.

With love,

Momo

PS.Poke would like to give special thanks to Saana and Naru whom without her moving nn saturday would have been impossible! And of course for the lift we got!

THANK YOU!!!
