Pfhaah, I'm finally back home from my first summer!Desucon ever. Desucon was held in Lahti 8-10 June 2012. I had a blast, it was so much fun
despite more-than-usual breathing problems, ME GUSTA VERY MUCH!! I'm so going there next year again!
My journey to Desucon started on Thursday morning by train. I managed to finish my cosplays in time for the con, although last minute and mom and stepdad modified Ichito's shoes for me because I was busy packing my stuff. :'D It looks a bit ghetto but it works lol.
 |
| Yay shoes.. and thus my cosplays were ready ~ |
I slept in Omenahotels with
Jäärä,
Ri-kun and
Sukka from Thursday to Sunday. So much night derp and fun oh my god. xD PILLS!
I cosplayed shikai!Jushiro Ukitake on Friday and hung out with our
Bleach cosplay group. We went to eat in a Chinese restaurang together a bit after the con started. I must say I wasn't too fond of the food. I do like Chinese food in general but I've eaten better.. but maybe that's because me and two others sat in another table from the rest and most of the different foods were on the other table and I didn't bother to go there because I was feeling very weak...
On Saturday morning and earlier daytime I cosplayed Ichito from
Asaki, Yumemishi but I changed into yukata!Souji Okita from
Hakuouki: Shinsengumi Kitan later because, even though I really liked my Ichito cosplay it was quite uncomfortable and I'd rather not have a headache during the whole main con day.
Jäärä cosplayed Miku from the same game and changed into Chizuru also.
On Sunday we had a Hakuouki group with
Jäärä as Chizuru,
Zkitsune as Harada,
Ri-kun as Saitou and me as Okita. I think Sunday was my favorite day in terms of hanging-with-friends-fun.
Even though shikai!Ukitake was, again, my most popular cosplay during the con.

I didn't attend any panels or even buy any merchandise
I have so much stuff in my room already.. but the con was very very nice anyway. Lots of nice cosplay costumes and friendly people. I took quite some photos so if you remember being photographed by shikai!Ukitake, yukata!Okita or Ichito (aka white long-haired eyepatch guy) give me a shout and I'll see if I have a photo of you! If you don't know what those characters I cosplayed look like you can have a look at my earlier
Desucon cosplay plans blog post. I have photos of
Okami cosplayers,
Hakuouki cosplayers,
Bleach cosplayers,
Sengoku Basara cosplayers,
InuYasha cosplayers,
Digimon cosplayers and some few more like some hobbits from
Lord of the Rings (names escape me gah!), Mitsurugi from
Soul Calibur and Gakupo from
Vocaloid. So if you cosplayed something from these series there's a big possibility I have a photo of you~ I have some photos too of characters I didn't recognize but I thought the costumes were really nice/interesting.
Oh, and of course if anyone has photos of my cosplays I'd really like to have them! My email can be found under the "contact me" text to the left. Thank you ~
Hmm, what more to say.. one thing's for sure.. Desucon was probably my most derp!lungs con ever.. dafuq. Weird it fucked so much now when it has been over one and a half year... *shrugs* Oh well. I think I ended up lololo-can't-almost-breathe 5 times.. 2 of them when going to sleep and the others when walking either to the con or back from the con
damn ascents. Not cool... and ironically enough I think all bad breathing derps happened when I was cosplaying Okita or Ukitake.. OTL
lololo someone took a photo when I was recovering and I ended up getting a random chest pain just when the photo was taken.. so needless to say a random person probably got a very in-character Okita photo of me. ._. derp
I'm now suffering this after-con lag hahah
(yyyh want more Desucon!) and I'm so friggin' tired right now, I hardly slept in the train back home and ahgjfsgfs. I got home a few hours ago and need to start packing again for another con, this time Uppcon in Uppsala next weekend. I'm leaving 13th June so need to pack my stuff again... but I need a bigger suitcase because I will be staying at my dad's place for some few weeks after the con.
And last but not least:
Thank you everyone for a wonderful Desucon experience! <3
