Lychee

Speaking of analogies.. Yano, Diji, Chiisana, and I basically determined the other day that I'm like a lychee fruit.

Which is kind of great because I LOVE lychee. It's my favorite fruit.<3

And I often use "LycheeMochi" as my username--for example, for tumblr.
(It's actually partially a reference to Henry Lau of Super Junior-M, who's my ultimate bias and who also loves lychee and is nicknamed Mochi and Lychee Prince.)


On the outside, a bitter and prickly shell.

On the inside, soft and sweet.

But even deeper inside, a hard and relentless seed at the core.

Yesterday, we went to Costco on yet another quest to satiate my recent cravings for churros. :> The thing is that Costco requires a membership card at entrance, though a lot of people have said that the local ones allow you to enter just the separate food-serving area regardless. So we trusted that and went for it.
Unfortunately, the lady at the door was extremely strict about it and wouldn't let us in, which is pretty understandable.

But just then, an Asian man with two young daughters walked by pushing a shopping cart.
And without hesitation, he interfered, "Oh, I'll pay for them!"

The lady at the entrance and we were all equally confused. OAO;;

And he kept insisting, "Yeah, they're with me," then he'd show the lady his membership card and smile at us, "I'll take responsibility for them." The lady very reluctantly allowed it.

Once we were inside, he kept the same kindness and told us, "If you need to buy anything, just come and find me," and then went off with his daughters. Honestly, we didn't even know what to do other than say 'thank you' over and over. I think he made all of our days ;u;~

It's absolutely reassuring to know that there are still such nice people out there. QuQ I'm really happy for his daughters to have such a person as their father, who's even in this little gesture shown compassion and that he'll be a great role model. I think and hope they'll grow up really well. Wherever he is out there, thank you again!!

I'm no great mixer. But I don't think I need to be to be bothered by some of these inflated egos I've seen around. I think there's a pretty big difference between professional audio engineering and the stuff that we do for youtube; yet some that know only one think they know and are capable of the other. There are different problems and circumstances, and thus different solutions and different values.
It doesn't matter how much you know about professional procedures, how many numbers you can spout from your ass, or even how much you've read on techniques. If you can't deliver--and if you can't put the time, effort, and interest into a mix--then I'm not impressed by your arrogant walkless talk.

...........................
I uploaded a full solo cover.
This is my first solo cover since "The Boys" in January 2012. And it's full. And it's a vocaloid song.
I'M ACTUALLY PRETTY SHOCKED AT MYSELF and it's okay if you're not but .... WOW I.. I UPLOADED A FULL SOLO COVER. GUYS.

Guys. I actually get to use the "covers (solos/duets)" label on this post.

But yeah, this is what I've been working on lately! .....It kind of actually stole all of the time that I spent not at work, sleeping, or hanging out with people. Somehow. It probably doesn't show. Oh well! ;v;

Thank you for listening if you did!<3
Everyone's kindness is just alksdflksdf //// it makes me so flustered god damn it


【Cover】 Answer 【Eva】
I can't believe that I finished a whole solo--and of a vocaloid song, at that--either.

Song: Answer (sequel to "Just Be Friends")
MP3: https://app.box.com/s/rn2n5t15zjbcazo...
Original: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOyCXm...
◆ Music & Lyrics: Dixie Flatline (mylist/4193884)
◆ Original Vocals: Megurine Luka
◆ Illust & Movie: Mogeratta (mylist/22088435)
◆ English Translation: Flurotie

(Thank you ChiisanaChanx3 for helping to teach me harmonies! YOUDABEST.)

I have special feels reserved for this song from having been present when Dixie premiered it at Anime Expo 2012. ;u;

Dedicated to AX2012's Day Zero, AX2013's BCSD Club, and everyone I've had the pleasure of meeting! Thanks for the fun♥ I'll probably be cosplaying Kido Tsubomi (Kagerou Project) again for next year's AX so if you spot me, feel free to say hi~


Kenta mashed up my version with Lizz's version of this song with Razzy's English lyrics. ^^ It's kind of strange at first because we're singing in different languages, but it's a nice listen once you get used to it. Lizz's sweet voice<3

Mimi - No Pain, No Game

SO MANY UPLOADS TODAY ; 7 ;

Promoting Mimi's cover of "No Pain, No Game" from BTOOOM! because her versatility is awesome and also because youtube copyrights aren't letting her upload the full thing. You can find it on Vimeo though, which is what I've embedded below.

If you enjoyed it, please consider letting Mimi know by leaving a comment on the youtube video here? :)

Some rambling confessions since I don't have time to write any proper posts haha.

I'm sorry Kanso that I keep using these pictures everywhere but they represent my cosplaying experience so well!!

Lately I've been really attached to Kido Tsubomi from Kagerou Project and the fact that I cosplayed her (with the help of Yanovi, Myst, and Chiisana who helped to make everything). And I've been enthralled by the friends I've made from the KagePro cosplay meet-up at AX. ;v; They're all great.

I feel bad because I went into the whole cosplay thing without knowing anything about Kagerou Project LOL. Although I tried researching a little to familiarize myself with the characters and their names, and the general idea of the plot and whole universe... though the songs are still kinda eh to me. But then I've always been kinda impartial to that musical style common to vocaloid songs.

Somehow, despite hardly knowing much, Kido became my immediate favorite. Well, besides the fact that everyone basically was like EVA YOU'RE KIDO AND THAT'S FINAL when we decided that we'd do a group cosplay of KagePro. Though I have to agree with their decision tbh-- :'D

Anyway, today I finally checked out the Kagerou Days manga, and I kind of wish that I had done this before AX because my understanding of everything is a lot clearer now!
AND KIDO. IS SO. ENDEARING.
I DON'T KNOW. I LOVE HER. AND I WAS RIGHT TO LOVE HER FROM THE START QAQ


alskdfjlsdf she and I have a lot of similarities. ;^; We're both known for our death glares HAHAHA. And she's so responsible, logical, tries so hard to be strong, and is actually a huge scaredy-cat. I love that her ability is the "eye concealing" one, which is almost like invisibility--I can relate because I've always been plagued with not having much of a presence.. which is both good and bad because I can't stand attention. (Though this is more relevant to the past because I've been becoming bolder and not quite so invisible anymore ;v;)

I also love that she's so abusive towards Kano. She's always beating him up and calling him an idiot... OOPS which is exactly what I did LOL~ Ahahahaha I kinda felt like she'd be like that (though tbh it's mostly my own natural personality spilling out...), but I had no idea how accurate I was since I hadn't read the manga at the time of AX. I posted those pictures on tumblr and I'm still alksdjfklsf ////// at the couple compliments I received. Someone even said that we're really in character! AND NOW THAT I'VE SEEN KIDO IN ACTION, I UNDERSTAND LOLOLOL uhuhuhu violence


Uuughh... I have to admit. That I really enjoyed cosplaying at AX. It was kind of fun being recognized and being stopped and asked for pictures. I normally hate being seen and can't stand too much attention, but for some reason--maybe because I wasn't being myself but rather a character--I felt so confident and amazing. I think it satisfied my secret desire to try modeling. ;x; ..... I mean, I am tall for an Asian female. And everyone's always said I should try. And most of my tall female friends from high school actually started modelling themselves, which just adds to my insecurity and slight jealousy. But I don't have the guts to model.

Now that I have everything at my disposal, I'd like to cosplay Kido more actually. I just wish I had a nice camera to take nice pictures with. ;n; So you can probably expect some camwhoring in the near future. I may not be the best Kido, but I think I fit her decently, and it's really exciting for me to have a character like this! I really enjoyed being her--what with the glaring at the world and abusing people. 8D It'd be fun if one day I worked myself up to be recognized by people as the Kido cosplayer but that's just me making dumb greedy wishes la la la la~

I still need to post my pictures from AX, but as soon as I'm finished with writing this post, I'm going right back to mixing my upcoming solo cover. :c I'm aiming to upload today! So please anticipate it ^o^

The more

I'm treated like an emotionless empty shell, and the more I'm regarded as this strong and unaffected person, the more I build up this armor around my heart, harden my emotions, and shut off what would be regarded as weak. I'm actually feeling like an emotionless empty shell. But I'm not this strong and I'm not unaffected.

SO MUCH TO DO; SO LITTLE TIME.

GUGUGUGUGU

Things I should finish ASAP:
-recording solo cover and mixing it (it's mostly done yaaay!!)
-recording other solo cover that has to be done by a certain day
-cropping image for chorus animation
-VLOG ABOUT AX/DISNEYLAND TRIP...
-PICTURE POST ABOUT AX/DISNEYLAND TRIP...
-COSPLAY PICS POST FROM AX...
-and then it occurred to me today that I've actually still yet to post the pictures from #GeminiMeetUp shame on me...

So sad though, how it now kinda feels like a chore. but I want to commit to stuff... and I have all these videos and pics from AX so I know I should share them, and I've always promised that I would. It's just actually doing it that's tedious and I can't find adequate time to get everything done, sob. Well, I've been focusing mostly on the covers so I can get those uploaded soon.. I guess that's a somewhat sufficient excuse for not having posted AX stuff even though AX was weeks ago. But it's so tedious.....

that my responsibility right now is to be the best student that I can be and to enjoy my soon-ending youth, and to be free from the pressures of making money and of having to grow up quickly so that I may make even more money. So hard have I clung to my childhood because I hardly had one, and hard do I predict I will cling to my teenaged years I know I didn't enjoy. :<

YEE.
The best friend has uploaded a new video and as her unofficial PR person, I need to share it. Well I would share it anyway because it's gorgeous but HERE. TAKE IT. ^^ I guarantee it's really pretty and will give you feels.

(I didn't really help with the mix much; I just adjusted some things and then "supervised" while she mixed it in my room ahahaha. It's so funny because her description's talking about smiling--all complete with the ヽ(;▽;)ノ face--but behind the scenes, she tried to ragequit on the mix so many times.)

(This is my preview of my soon-arriving--lolno we'll see when I get the time to put everything together--posts about AX 2013, at which I cosplayed Kido Tsubomi from Kagerou Project! ;u; )

The two Kano Shuuyas (Andy and Sean) were both really awesome and good sports. THANKS FOR LETTING ME ABUSE YOU GAIZ.

As Anime Expo is nearing, #TeamSiliconValley (Chiisana, Y, Myst, and myself) has been busy at work making cosplays! 8D I've been meaning to update this blog for so long, so sorry you're just getting one big dump of stuff.

Myst (Ene), Chiisana (Ayano), Ian (Shintaro), Andy (Kano), and I (Kido) are doing a group cosplay of characters from Jin's Kagerou Project. :D It's my first time seriously cosplaying. And I've discovered my dislike for wigs.

The rest of the costumes were buyable or Myst-makable but the Kido hoodie for me was more complex, so it's been the focus of our collaborative cosplay-making project. ;u; Also we've been making the Kano jacket too!

Yee, #TeamSiliconValley enjoying their gelato. :>

Fabric and craft store.. Someone make me a prom gooownnnn~~

Cutting patterns!

Myst dyed the fabric from white, and the color turned out SO perfect for Kido's grayish-purple'ish hoodie. ^^

Dinner! Indomie and a fried egg~

MYST IS AWESOME and covered up green Converse with cloth of the proper green color, except she used double-sided tape so that it could be taken off later and just worn as regular casual Converse.

 Somewhat starting to come togetherrrr

I did buy a green wig but it ended up not being long enough so Myst got me another one which looks great. This is Chiisana modeling it huhuhuhu

(It looks super unnatural and weird on me ;^;..) Wig before cutting.

Chiisana being my bitch

After cutting the wig! :)

AWKWARDLY BLURRY PICTURE because I wanted to snap it quickly before going.. But this is the "track suit" collar that Y made and it's so awesome *A* (She's so good at this, srsly.. Y made most everything!)

Still WIP

HEHEHE ALMOST THERE. kind of.

So I didn't want anyone to belatedly be like, "Why didn't I know about this?!" and although this announcement post doesn't really reach many people (which technically then defeats its very intended purpose).... oh well. At least I made some kind of ..update announcement thing. uh. uhhhhhh. okay um. it's.. just. I'm going out with someone for the first time YEP BYE. QuQ
