BTS : VIDEO SHOOTING IN PENANG WITH HONG KONG TV SHOW (TRAVEL GURU)

Hi ! I'm back again in this blog just to share something with you guys what happened last Friday ,I know everyone really curious rite ?

I've been wanting to tell you guys about this but I keep it to myself and first when I get this offer I'm really hesitated to ask my parents about this. But hey,I did it! Convincing my parents wasn't easy but I'm grateful they let me go but they will also follow me . xD Some knew about this , but ahahahha sorry to that person I kept this as a secret from you so you won't follow me behind like a stalker. 

The thing is I'm not really confident for this kind of chance . >,<  But I grab it anyway,it's not always you get this kind of chance. Honestly I'm really worried if I might doing not good enough during the filming .

17 Nov 17 . Woke up really early in the morning . 03:00 am . night before the day,I barely sleep that night . Really nervous and worried about what I'm going to do later ! >,<
I bring 2 costumes , Kanna Kamui and D.va but Director choose Kanna because the costume is more unique (the balls part on the shawl) attracted him more , so I have to cosplay as Kanna .  

I believed It's not really a talk show but it's more like a highlight for hijab cosplay and our culture &religion . :D Seriously during the filming I'm totally nervous and awkward in front of the people .omg I was like help me !!! Whatever I wanted to talk front of the camera it's like goneee...speechless. mind gone blank and I was like I'm not ready for this. T^T  glad I bring my friend along so she would help me to stay calm . Usually I'm not really like this. xD  idk why it happened but glad it's already ended . hahaha. gosh. I hope that I can improve my communication skills and not going awkward with the new people I meet. It always happened with the new people I met like I'm really awkward and can't talk properly like I'm usually did . awkward and uncomfortable with the new people. xD
Really sorry cuz that is just how I am. Socially awkward with the new people I meet. It's not really shy it's like you gone speechless and the words you wanna let out can't be released from your mouth . T^T   I have to improve this . :'D 

I'm glad that the filming went smooth and it's a really fun experience with the crew team.They have been really good towards my friend ,family and me that day. Even it's short period spend time with them,it's really a good memory . Thank you for having me and really appreciate your kindness even I did some mistake during the filming.

Director is a funny guy and he mistaken I'm 15 years old ,but I'm 21 . xD yeah probably how I'm dressing as Kanna Kamui and how I behave is the factor why he tot I'm 15 y.old. lol 
yeah.He is really shocked with the fact we told him . hahahahaha
The way he confidently said I'm 15 y.old is really funny. omg. 

Right is director acting cute .
Left is cameraman confused with his director action.

blue guy : salam ??
me : sorry ? ..  (^▽^;)

I don't even know what I'm talking about ... 

can you guess what we are actually doing here ?

Once again thanks to the media team for your hard work and kindness ! without you guys , I won't be in Penang cosplaying in the public with my family watching me at the back while filming. 

I felt really awkward (cuz my parents watching me) but at the same time I enjoyed cosplaying in the public as usually I did in my hometown.But this time my parents watching me live at the location,it feels really new to me .

Can't wait for the video released date !! great work everyone!! 

HOW I FEEL AFTER GOING VIRAL

(ﾉ≧∀≦)ﾉ HEYAAA ~ Assalamualaikum .These few week happened so much thing in my life but not sure why I'm going viral this much cuz I was just sharing my new makeup look . Which is my goth ver of sailormoon attracted some online friends both fb and ig bcuz it is kinda new to me ?I'm not really someone who would wear thick makeup and suddenly trying something new like this and for sure it was a hit when a japanese writer asked if I can answered his questions and if it's ok for featuring me in his website article.   
It happened real quick when several international articles wrote about me and showing interest in my Hijab Cosplay .Including local radio article ERA FM featuring me inside their website . :'D Honestly I've been thinking if I really deserve for this or not.Because there's a lot of another hijab cosplayers you can find and they are also amazing and fella friends inspired me to become like them,good in making costume and props! Probably it's just a coincidence where I uploaded that sailormoon photos and everyone noticed me about my appearance and my hijab style. 

As I gained fame and attention online,I gained haters and fans too. Of course there's some would take me down or even hate me more than before.But I don't really care the negative side,it's just I really care about my own privacy and hope if you know anything about me just keep it to yourself as I'm not really like it when I gained the fames,I loss my own freedom like posting some random or stupid rant post online,which is sad. lol .  

It's good to know that many intl people praise me for how I did my hijab is really inspiring and amazing ,and some look at me as I'm very talented hijab cosplayer but in fact I feel like I'm not and doesn't deserved for this .But glad that people love my hijab cosplay and I appreciate your kind words.Because I'm already about to give up or slow down in cosplay and was planning to do gothic fashion next year.Cosplay is very fun and just a hobby that I find very relaxing and being able to dress up&makeup like the anime character.All your kind words really motivated me to continue cosplaying and I'm still nowhere yet for you to called me your idol and such.Really I feel like a noob cosplayer ,I just become a very active cosplayer in this year but of course you have seen me in few online articles about me since May 2017 ,I feel like I just started cosplay yesterday !! I learn a lot in this year and also improving my hijab style as I'm not aiming for fame at all it was just people love about my cosplay and makeup ? idk . 
I just hope whatever my decision in the future just please respect mine and continue to support me . I rarely update this blog ,but hopefully there's more I can share with you here.I have a lot cosplay plan for next year so pls wish me luck and being able to do my own props and costume (such a goal) !!Of course I need to work really hard from now on just to improve myself so I can have achieve other goals (maybe more intl senpai noticed me) ?
 >,<  

How I improved myself in hijab cosplay in a year. lol there's more photos actually.

2016 with VERY SIMPLE HIJAB through the year but I started know how to do a side bang

 at 1st attempt at the end of the year in 2016 .Starting 2017 I become active in having photoshoot 
and my 1st photoshoot is Yamatonokami Yasusada from Touken Ranbu. As I'm slowly improving 
my hijab style I started to figured out how to do a proper hijab by myself and I created my own 
version of hijab style which is completely can be use for all kind of styling as it can covered my
aurah perfectly !  Various cosplay with the same hijab styling but only with different bangs shape

and how many shawls you need is depends on the character hairstyle. If hair is longer than 

waist usually need 2 shawl to create the look.While mostly I did it with one shawl . Kanna ,

Sailormoon&Runa hijab style at least using 2 shawls.Insyaallah if I have an opportunity to

 make hijab tutorial I will do it. I'm still not good to explained how it works and still in a try 

and error ZONE. xD  

Whatever it is,if you want for something,work for it and learn from the mistake &never give up. To become successful is not easy,I do admire some of local cosplayers too who are very well known internationally in cosplay. So I wish everyone good luck ,if you really want to be a cosplayer just do it.Start with a basic makeup and hijab already good enough. Just be yourself and have fun with your cosplay ! YOLO ! (=ↀωↀ=)✧

CF MINI 2017 IN PENANG (DAY 1)

Halo ! There's not much to write a post in blog last month cuz my mood is sometimes being too moody and bitchy 24/7 ,it's very personal so I won't let you know . haha. 

Since my mood is being too hype after event,yea. I had fun last Saturday 09/09/2017.So,I tot why not share my story and post a bit appreciation post here.

To begin with,chance to attend this event was like almost zero , and slowly come 50/50 cuz I don't planning for any event after PAM. But yea things changed people also changed . Probably I still have some budget to go cfmini so why not,rite ?The thing is it's a YOLO attitude ,went to event that early in the morning ,just to catch up the public transport worried if being left out ,but luckily we still able to catch up the commuter everything went smooth .As we arrived at the station,we took GRABCAR from Butterworth to Straits Quay. Actually this is my 1st time go on a day trip and ride public transport with friends .

Reasons why I really want to go to CFMINI last weekend is to meet some KL friends that I admired and just love them,it's Jenny and the gang. xD Also with Kakegurui cosgroup and not forget MONPINK .It's just a one day trip so it's really worth with the budget and meet friends there. I don't have many photos with and some of the quality in the selfie photos are crappy T^T 

I'm still shy to ask for photos with new people 

I cosplay a loli character from Kakegurui ,RUNA YOMOZUKI. 

Glad that people recognized my character in hijab ver. xD Heard a lot people saying I'm tall fake loli ,yeaaaah. YOUR'E JUST MINI SIZE HOOMAN~nyahahaha I also wear 4 inches heels shoes .

For the Kakegurui cosers,thank you for let me stick with you guys and even willing to layan my fake loli roleplay also thanks for accepted my request to group photoshoot with you guys. I somehow secretly stick with Samantha cuz you're so friendly and I like you ahahahaha ,Alexander seems to be quiet but approachable person . xD Had so much fun with you guys ,including Mary Saotome coser. She somehow so quick disappeared from my radar. I have life plan for you ... don't avoid me . hahahaha actually I don't know where she went after saw her doing outdoor photoshoot .She actually came and see me first while I'm still searching for other Kakegurui cosers. xD 

Lastly ,not to forget fb friends who actually came and say 'Hi' to me,and asked for photos xD I love you all ~ <3 Sorry for some people didn't received my lolipops cuz I didn't carry with me that time. But after that realized I didn't give to you some,so I just put more lolipops inside my rabbit jacket 's pocket. 

So happy got to meet MONPINK in person too ~ She is cute but ..xD her voice is naturally like that or just roleplay ehh ?? very animeish voice. 

I grab her 2B poster and got her signature on it,also got to selfie with her. T^T

4. Get newspaper and roll some and make it long so you can put the balls into the roll like the pic above.

5. Just like dango stick .. lol. Make sure the balls won't slide down . Now get the clear spray paint ,coat it for 3 to 4 layers , each layer wait for 20mins. 

6. You are done . As the pic above,compare the with and without clear spray paint.Shining and smooth layer,so your black colour won't come off easily . 
Be careful for not "kemek" the balls , later you have redo the balls ..repaint. T^T

How to make YAMATONOKAMI YASUSADA sword : Actual Size

Hello ! How is everybody ?  It's been a while here..lol . And this is the 1st post for 2017 .  gomen there's a lot of things to do in my daily life so I forgot about updating my blog here .

Firstly,the reason why I'm starting to do my own props is, it's fun and feel appreciated if someone gonna say you've done a great job on working for your own props. Also it's saving a lot of money rather than buying props online,and sometimes the details also not very promising as shown in the pics.Sometimes,when you buy something online, your stuff didn't even arrived . *yeah kena tipu &etc*  . Since I've encounter the incident back in the 2016 ,I'm not going to buy anything from FB PAGE seller/friend directly .*at least for the props* I have trust issues for now. I'm mentally breakdown from that!!! so sick of it.

Back to the topic,
So I ordered eva foam from fb friend,and kirim from friend who went to cf16 last year. I decided that I will do my own props starting this year 2017 and will learn about props making with lots of senpai in fb. I started looking for materials & learn props making from youtube too . I spent a lot of time to research about how to make a katana .

Well,ya know,I'm a bit scared at 1st ,just for handle a knife /cutter maybe phobia from kindergarten age, *play with knife/steel type of ruler&hurt myself from playing it,man ..really hurt I tot I'm gonna die that time* haha. But still,I challenged myself to not scared with it. lol

Yet,men are willing to helped me for cutting the sword shape out from a plywood . And they teach me how to handle the cutter.
But of course,all of it was done by me,and without their help,I won't be able to make my katana too. thank you.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How I made my own katana SWORD? 
Pls expect that my 1st made props wasn't as good as veteran coser/props maker . I need to improve/find the right material like suitable quick glue . *Or my skills is being impatient for applying glue on eva foam*

UPDATED ! YAMATONOKAMI YASUSADA IS UCHIGATANA , before drawing the sword's size &shape pls refers how UCHIGATANA looks like. *I made a mistake for the blade shape part !!! cries *

For the blade part, you may use anything you can find , abandoned plywood *where you can get it for free* ,or Balsa Wood which are common for making swords.

I use abandoned REUSE-ABLE plywood that was left around the bushes? you already save your money on buying some balsa wood . If you didn't find anything that's potential for being a material for making the blade part,just go buy Balsa Wood at your nearest stationery / art store.

Plywood (REUSE-ABLE)                             Balsa Wood 
 pros-If find one and use-able ,then it's FREE.        pros-pretty beige wood / colour                   
         -cost you 0.00$                                               -easy to cut,shape,&spray colour
 cons-might be dull coloured                                cons-cost you around RM20 per one.
        -fragile since it's old                                           -careful for not to break it (swords fight)                                                                                                                                                               

Prepare some materials 

1.Plywood or Balsa Wood

2.Cutter

3.pencil (to draw)

4.multipurpose glue &glue gun

5.sand paper

6.putty filler (in case you break some part)

7.spray paints (silver , black , clear)

8.eva foam (for handle part)

9.adhesive tape

10.long shoelace (black)

11.brush

12.acrylic paint (white)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Decide how long your SWORD will be including the part for your handler .Width is around 2.5cm but you may draw the lines about 2.8cm considering you might want to smooth the blade surface/edges later with sand paper. cut the wood into 2 pieces,so later you have to glue it make it a bit thick (like real sword). draw some shape on the SWORD blade . After that,use sand paper to smoothen the blade .
SPRAY THE BLADE part USING SILVER spray paint. and finish it with clear spray paint.











I followed this video ,but not everything I follow.

and some reference are from the google.

TSUBA PART 

This part I completely design it myself using microsoft words *lol* Took time to figure out the flower design for yamatonokami 's katana . And I successfully doing it with the right size (actual size) ,well actually before I made the blade part,I carefully design the Tsuba part to fit the size with the blade (blade is 2.5cm) and the thickness (0.6cm).Well,you are free to use this doc for making the tsuba part .
Here is the link for you to download.
Click here --> YAMATONOKAMI YASUSADA TSUBA PART DESIGN BY MIISA MHC <--Click here
You can just cut it and follow the drawing ,just be careful for not to ruin the details part,since its thin. You can either using wood or eva foam for tsuba part,but I'm using plywood. after cutting the shape , smooth the surface with sand paper. *In case there is unwanted hole around the surface ,use putty filler to fill it in.Color it with black color                                                                              spray paint,and dry it. Insert the tsuba in the sword,push it                                                                              up from the handle part and secured it with glue/                                                                                            adhesive tape.


TSUKA PART

Measure the handle part on eva foam,make it 2 ,and cut it. Then glue it to both part for the handle,both front and back . You can do the reference from the video below.

As for the string wrapping around the Tsuka ,you may need to learn it a bit from some video around youtube,and photos from google. It's a bit complicated , but once you do it right,the urge to finish it is so highhhh !!  haha. Secure the end with gluegun . Oh,use the black colored string.

YOUR string must be long,you might use
black shoelace and combine it using two
string ,sew it,and cut the plastic end (aglet)
