AFA09
We were T.H.E.R.E!
as you can see, this is the AFA admission ticket.
Jasmine and I pre-ordered so we didn't have to stand in queue like the others!
--Day 1 --
Jasmine's cousin(Deidara) and her friends came to join us!
The first day of AFA was Hectic and the ticket queue was crazily long,
although i think it's pretty normal. Haha.
We arrived there around 10 30am by Train.
Here we have a snap-shot of Ryoma(Jasmine) playing PSP in the Train.
Typical eh? :3
And so, we got to our Destination.
AFA was held at Suntec Convention Hall
on a SATURDAY and SUNDAY.
The moment we arrived, the few of us who had tickets excitedly went in,
while everyone else went to buy them.
We found a spot to dump our Bags and went walking around.
Quite a number of our classmates went for the same event,
some in cosplay as well, but mostly not.
After everyone finally got in, around 11 30, we decided to get drinks.
Yes, sounds really 'FAIL' but oh well, we just did. LOL
And then, we had lunch.
AFTER lunch, we took our time to walk around,
buy stuff and well, enjoy the whole AFA.
We didn't do much photo-taking because we were in cosplay,
but it was quite a waste because there were more cosplayers on Saturday.
As for Shaun, he went off to join his Hitman Reborn group.
We saw him here and there but most cosplayers were one level down,
at this giant empty area where they were having their photo taken and stuff.
Crystal as Mafia China, and me as HongKong.
We met other Hetalia cosplayers there too~
All in all, Day 1 was FUN.
and of course, Tiring.
The stuff sold at such event are EXPENSIVE!
but its standard, just like long queues for tickets.
We had a retarded(some call it stupid) time dancing Caramelldansen,
for 4 minutes while people took photo.
It was like WEIRD-but pretty entertaining!
-- End of Day 1 --
-- Day 2 --
We had two more guest cosplayers,
which was our classmate(Rukia) and her sister(Hinata)
They were happily dancing Hare Hare Yukai and the lucky star dance.
Jas, Crystal and I went as our Original characters.
(You can check out our pictures in the next post)
WE spent the entire day asking other cosplayers for pictures,
and running around.
The main stage events on Sunday was also more interesting
-the appearance of Pro cosplayer Kaname
-live dubbing from the voice actors of K-ON!
We had a picture with the latest anime craze-Vocaloids Len and Green Kaito.
We also managed to catch a Kaito eating "ice cream",
in fact, it was yogurt.
Crystal bought some later and i tried,
but i didn't exactly fancy it >.<
Figurine showcases, Gundams-AFA had it all!
Can you identify the characters?
AND, of course, COSPLAYERS!
Air Gear- check out those Skates
Naruto-Who will win?
Hitman Reborn
There was even...FAN SERVICE!
Hitman reborn pairings done by:
Shaun's KHR Group!
Not to forget:
Tons of ARTWORKs
and filled out Drawing spaces!
Someone even drew Hong Kong!
Christopher also requested to go to the Moe Moe Kyun Maid Cafe,
and we had lunch there.
Amazingly enough, people still took pictures of us eventhough we were OCs,
that surprised us quite a lot.
It was COOL!
Thus, the AFA came to a close.
It was definitely worth our Money,
if i may say so myself~
AND didn't catch Christopher in any of the pictures?
Sorry to say but he went as our photographer.
You can catch him as Japan at the up-coming EOY!
