aimeekitty:::::::::::::::::::::::: LOLITA ORDERING??? ::::::::::::::::::::::::
Does anyone know if Mam and Innocent World allow international english orders?
::::::::::::::::::::::::WCS::::::::::::::::::::::::
"What is important today is that Giorgia is the best cosplayer in the world as stated by the jury that she certainly didn't know and overall with the best costume. What counts is that the Italian team is the best in the world."
yeah, the best in the world at CHEATING? At a competition that is a completely rigged farce. I mean COMPLETELY RIGGED.
what most irks me other than the hurtful things that were done to all the cosplayers OTHER than the Italians, is that lots of ignorant people are going to see the results of this competition and assume that Italy DID win fairly. I have never seen something so insanely rigged in my entire life. See This post, and also this one, a translated response of the Italian go-to boy. Anyone who supports or competes in WCS next year is a complete IDIOT.
I hope that TV Aichi realizes that it is making Japan look bad to outsiders. Thankfully, we know that they don't actually represent Japan...

I really do think that, but it's hard to keep those walls down, isn't it?
my tire exploded yesterday. It took me ALL day to get it fixed and now I'm having to make up hours all week. *_*.
food: YESTERDAY:: 2 eggs, some strawberries, 2 slices of whole wheat toast, a slimfast shake and a beef shabushabu salad with 30 min cardio. TODAY: no cardio... not enough time. ate 2 slimfast shakes, 2 slimfast "snacks", some spinach leaves and a grass-fed burger that Mitch made. Both days I stopped eating before 7 pm and had no booze.
