Project Life: Mardi Gras Float

(Day of the Dead Float)

Sunday at work my manger asked me and some of my co-workers if we wanted to ride in the Mardi Gras parade that night. Of course our answers were yes because when would we ever be asked to do that again? We got to ride on the Day of the Dead float. I can honestly say it was so much fun riding and dancing and throwing beads out to the crowd.


As you can see, we got a wardrobe provided to us. Now I know it is not the most appealing wardrobe. And if you were wondering if they were hot? The answer is yes, very very very hot. But we got a rose crown which we all clearly loved. The outfit was like a purple greek goddess toga thing with a purple sequin bib. That's the only way I could describe this outfit.


I just have to say this was an experience I would never forget and we had so much fun throwing beads to people. Even though I accidentally hit some guy in the face with one and it made me laugh which then made me feel like a horrible person but it was really funny. Thank you Universal for giving me this great opportunity with my friends and I hope I can do this again next year.

GeekyCon 2016 Highlights

Meeting Maxwell Glick and Jon Cozart after the Disney sing-a-long after being on stage with them during a Tangled song and being in the front row dancing with them, two very sweet gentleman and I'm so happy I got to meet them and getting some youtube advise from Mr. Cheezypop himself! At the Charity ball I got to meet Ty Simpkins who is from Jurassic World and the Insidious films. He was also very sweet and nice of him to come out of the V.I.P area to interact with his fans and take photos for free and have nice conversations with everyone. That same night after the dance was the Harry Potter and the Cursed Child midnight release party! Potter Puppet Pals did a show, there was real life wizard chess, quid ditch matches, costume contests, being sorted by the sorting hat, and much more to do. It was so much fun and of course getting the book was icing on the cake. Then I got to meet Pemberly Digital! Frankenstein M.D., The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, and my p...

Original Character Pokemon Trainer Cosplay

I made my own Pokeballs and brought my starter pokemon with me to Megacon.  I did a black and white base for the outfit with pops of mint green. I wore my hair in two buns and also wore a bow necklace. A lot of girl pokemon trainers wore skirts or shorts so I went with this cute black and white skirt. To finish the look off I wore my white keys. I met this girl at mega who made the cutest pokemon cosplay I've seen so far in my life. As you can see in my cosplay I also had my pokemon badges in my vest, just like Ash. They are the indigo league badges. I have all 8 and not photographed I also had the Master Ball. If you would like a video of my outfit and how I made the poke balls let me know.

2013

My goodness how time flew by so fast. To think this time last year I was working in Irvine, California meeting all the amazing new friends that I made. I saw some awesome movies and did some amazing things. I can't believe I got to see One Direction Live at the Staple Center! I met iJustine and the cast of The Lizzie Bennet Diaries at Leaky Con 2013. I went to Portland for the first to go to Leaky Con and it was an amazing experience. I also enjoyed Disneyland and California Adventure as well as Universal Hollywood. I've figured out who my real friends are upon moving back to Florida. I've made some new friends and have become even closer with my brother (which I didn't think could be possible considering how close we were before). I feel like this year I really got a grasp on who I am and not letting people walk all over me. I'm standing up for myself and dealing with problems in an up front way. Next year, I need to get back to how I was eating in Californ...
