Conventions, Cosplay, Skits, and Help! Oh My!

Skip to the paragraph you desire or if you want to read it all you can. I'm not stopping you.
Paragraph 1=Hold up for shop
Paragraph 2=Convention Details
Paragraph 3=School First
Paragraph 4=Help with the Convention (Female help needed desperately for cosplayers)

Right now I have to put some cash aside for a cosplay convention because I have to save up for Allora's and my own costumes. So some of my items might look half baked. I am apologizing now because I might forget in the future. If you are wondering which convention. It is Zenkaikon X. I also have to put time into creating a skit for a masquerade ball. This means it will take longer for the books to be finished. We have to put time into practicing and memorizing our skit and that puts a strain on us because we also have to memorize and rehearse our Ted Talk many, many times. The reason we decided  to do this is... One, I wanted to take Allora with me this year and show her the stuff you can do. Two, I love to cosplay. I might even ask our teachers and Allora if Allora and I are allowed to dress up for the Genius Festival. Three, I really want to see what a ten year anime convention celebration looks like. Four, I would like to try new risk and try to create a skit using the two characters we are cosplaying as. Five, I won't lie. I kinda want to buy all the awesome anime stuff. 

I'm going into a little bit of detail about the convention and cosplay here so just skip to the third paragraph if you don't want to listen. For this convention we have to put money aside for the costumes or dresses, wigs (if needed), accessories, and shoes. We also spend A LOT of time working with makeup and messing with hair and wigs to perfection. We have to prerecord the skit with any audiology needed. We must rehearse movement of skits so many times. We will be ready once we can move to the exact point.

This will take a slight, but noticeable strain on our work, but not our studies. We will work with what time we have and we will not let the convention affect our grades. I know this post is a bit off topic from my usual all making anime stuff things, but I just wanted to explain what else is happening and if it seems like we stopped making stuff. 

By the way I wanted to ask if you are interested in coming to the convention with us. You would need to buy your own ticket and let me know by March 4th. I ask because I can help with the costume and give you a part in the skit if you want one. I ask this because 2 people isn't enough for what I have in mind. Please I must know because I would appreciate any help for the convention. Have Fun! ~ GirlieGamerGirls02   

I will also post a little vlog of the convention and the skit in a future post after the convention and I have the time to upload the video. For more info about the convention and joining our skit please check the link HERE!
