...I was going to open this with some lines from Hamlet that are rather speaking to me at the moment, but I decided that was too pretentious, and was probably not going to be seen by the intended anyway. Act 2, Scene II, the begining of Hamlet's letter to Ophelia, if you care.

Anyway. Otakon is, again, up in the air. Without going into too much detail, unless things change drastically in the next week or two, I have to weigh getting to meet Ammie against the $200 to $300 dollars it's going to cost me, the possibility of some very, very uncomfortable encounters, and having no cosplay group to be with. Yeah, life is not on my side right now.

In other news, when Grace was over, I let her do up makeup for me, and then we took a few photos. I figured I'd share, if only for the shock-value of 'OMG Cocoa in makeup!' I actually think it's nice, personally.

Full face, and another.
Just the eyes, which came out kinda strangely colored o.0
Fingernails and toes. I took it off my fingernails, but it's still on my toes to amuse me at work.

EDIT: ...Someone please convince me trying to dye my hair very pale silver-blue is a Bad Idea. I know it is, but I want to do it anyway. Damn you, Braska. This is all your fault. You and your pretty hair and silly hat that goes whoosh. And you too, Riff, you're just encourging him.

Yech! Totally not your colors. That against your complexion makes you look diseased or something- it's too orange.

Well, I think part of the problem in the photos is that the lighting in my living room is kinda wierd.

You are more than welcome to have a go whenever I get around to visiting again, though XD

Sorry that RL is treating you badly, m'dear. I'd be sad to miss seeing you, although there'll be other opportunities to meet up in the long-term...wow, shock value indeed! And it does look nice...pale silver-blue = very difficult to achieve in hair, possibilities of it turning out greyish-magenta or some such = very high^^;;;

Well, I'm still considering it, really. I'm giving real life a little while to attempt to resolve itself, I think. I would really love to meet you, but all things considered it may not be a Good Plan at the moment.

And thanks! I think the biggest problem with silver-blue would be the amount of bleaching necessary to achieve it - although, my hair is pretty sturdy.

I think you look cute!

Thanks :D

Cocoa in makeup! Sqwee! XD I dare not touch the stuff, but the painted nails are cute. :D *tickle*

And if you dye your hair or not, it always goes back to normal after a while. ^_^

Mara and Yuumei approve of your plans for hair disaster :D ..... We also are here sniggling at Cocoa-in-makeup :) <3 . We are making you pastry :D.

Well, if I don't manage to curb the impulse, you two may be my partners in crime.

Yay, pastry :D

You do look good in make-up X3

....ahahaha. I attempted dying my hair that colour once. All I got was a silvery shine ._. My hair is just too dark, I suppose.

Thanks XD

I would definately have to bleach my hair out, but I think if I tried hard enough, it could be done.

Try, then? Hair will grow again XD

Your nails are lovely, I can't comment on the make-up too much because the photos don't tell me much XD

As for the hair thing? Why not? After all, it's nothing permanent, hm? Though you could always photoshop yourself with this colour and see if it would even look good?

Date: 2005-08-01 11:55 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] momijizukamori.dreamwidth.org
Thanks XD

Yeah, I suppose I could attempt photoshopping it. Or get Winter to do it, I'm awful at photo manips XD;;

You can't dye it that color because you have to use the rest of my purple dye!

p.s. You are quite attractive, still.

Date: 2005-08-01 11:16 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] seracy.livejournal.com (from dreamwidth.org)
p.p.s. NEVER COLOR YOUR NAILS LIKE THAT AGAIN!

(please?)

Date: 2005-08-01 11:16 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] seracy.livejournal.com (from dreamwidth.org)
p.p.p.s.

I want to have a go at your face now!

Date: 2005-08-01 12:01 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] momijizukamori.dreamwidth.org
Can I save it for later? I'm not sure I want purple right now.

PS: Thanks <3

PPS: I won't - it was all Grace's idea anyway.

PPPS: Have fun XD
