I just realized that I've been cosplaying Aeris for nearly ten years (no, you will never see the original pictures). I think I should be a little ashamed, haha. But I've done a lot of other cosplay, and to show I'm not a, shall we say, one hit wonder, I'm trying to find some older cosplay pics that are decent quality to show my other costumes. But finding decent pictures is hard, though I recently found Star Ocean's Nel Zelpher, which I uploaded. My other cosplays that I haven't already uploaded here (I think I've uploaded L from Death Note, Lust from Fullmetal Alchemist, and Quatre from Gundam Wing) include KH1 Aeris (hopefully will take new pics in that!), Princess Zelda, Squall from FFVIII, Padme Amidala from Star Wars, Namine from KH, Altair from Assassin's Creed, Quistis from FFVIII, gosh, I can't even remember. But when you're in high school you don't really think about good pictures, just blindly running around and lol'ing with your friends. If I had told myself that in ten years I'd be living in Tokyo, still cosplaying, I'd... well, I'd probably be damn well pleased, but yeah, my life is pretty pathetic, haha.
As for now, today,
frankiki and I are going to hit up the new Square Enix cafe (and see if they have part-time jobs LOL)! There have various desserts and sandwiches that are Final Fantasy themed, including an Aeris parfait that I absolutely must consume. Tomorrow, if the weather is good, we're hoping to take some good cosplay pictures - the Christmas present I made for her, by the way, was Crisis Core Tifa. I don't have Crisis Core Aeris but maybe I'll wear something else, or we can take better Amano pics. I bought a new camera so we're good to go!
Square Enix is also hiring here in Tokyo, my friend just got a job there.
I think it'd be awesome to work for a gaming company, like SE or Bioware or something, though my dream job would be to be a scenario writer for one of those companies. I'm pretty sure they only hire established writers though, which obviously means I have to get some books published - on my way! just give me a year, or five...
