Hello there! It's time to update that magnificent journal and write something about things that have happened. Two conventions, KoneCon 2 _(Szczecin) and Balcon _(Chorzów). I'll try to put everything in right order!





KoneCon 2 - we're gonna ma~aake cospla~~ay

KoneCon 2 was a very busy convention cause, as the title says, our group had to

prepare and hold the whole cosplay thing.
-"Hurry!"-"Come on!"-"Go there and do that!"-"We have to hurry!"-"I'm tired!" - these and

few other were the most used quotes.

We arrived at the conplace on the day before the whole convention to prepare the main room and things that had been left undone. The good thing was that KoneCon 2 had it's conplace in Szczecin, so actually in our group's 'hometown', if you know what I mean.
We could go home anytime to get needed things so the situation was, I dare to say, comfortable. Tired and exhausted, we went to sleep. Things were getting worse~ : O _{as many ideas as people gathered there, we also had to deal with curtains and backstage, ehhhh;}

Saturday. The day of the biggest doom and hastiness. Many things were left undone. Everyone was, well, not to say nervous, kinda pissed, but still we managed no to kill each other. Hikaru with no teddyrabbit for Honey, the whole group without uniforms _{and the needlewoman with no electricity}, wigs not styled, costumes not complete, main room not prepared enough. Sweet and cute, ya?

I dunno if we are really stupid or lucky or stupidly lucky but we had done
everything what was planned and it came out pretty good. It took us something like two
hours. I hope that people enjoyed the show and that we did good.




<sub>We would also like to thank everyone who participated in cosplay! There were so many people with great costumes! Really, the truth is that cosplayers make cosplay - guys, you did great!


Techno, Kyouya, Nekozawa and Honey thinking and judging, which cosplay was the best and which should win


Here are the winners! Congratulations, one more time!</sub>

The very next day.
Do you know the smeel of victory? Yeah, kiddin' but we were really happy with the cosplay and the way it turned out. Tired but happy we spend Sunday idly, enjoying ourselves.
I don't remember when things like 'Whose Line' or Fireworks Performance were shown but I know that I enjoyed them and had fun. I suppose, just like everyone else.


_{Well, enjoying, yeah}

I haven't mentioned it but the weather was killerlike. Even when the sun wasn't shining it still was really hot and sticky outside. Rainy, sunny, rainy, sunny, sunny, sunny and STICKY.
Of course after KoneCon2 we ended up in travelers favourite eating place - KFC. The clouds broke and it get immediately colder as the rain was pouring. That was nice. Waiting for everyone's trains, eating and still, having fun! Can I call it - after-party? Yes, I suppose that's a good name for that situation.


_{Happy ~TEcHNOpl in my gay hat and sunglasses. He'll take you to the gay bar with his gay train of gayness!}

And that's all. KoneCon2 - really great and successful convention.



BALCON

Traveling to Balcon was really painful experience indeed. We ended up in the corridor near toilets [cause all compartments were full] but that's not the point of this note, besides I'll write more about getting back to Szczecin, which was even more painful if possible. Old habits die hard and as to follow convention routine we lead some con-atractions. For instance We did wig styling and voice recording workshops. It was fruitful one can say, it was fun but also tiring as hell.




We also sat as models [also know as victims] at Chester and Euzobjusz's make-up workshops.

Not only did Niemti cut wigs but also human hair. Overtime was unavoidable.



I'm wirting about balcon in short. Everybody tried to deal with various impediments, and they did their best. Despite of different problems such as lack of electricity or terrible journey it was fun to take part in Balcon. It cannot be omitted that ~Arashiek won 3rd place at Cosplay contest. Congrats! ~linasakura also won something. A potatoe medal! what is more, Ano had an interesting proposition from old perv.
And by interesting I mean one night stand up in railway station toilette. geez.







See you at Piernicon!

Hi guys! I'm late as always so don't mind! _{to lazy to deal with it..}
This time I have to write you about three things that have happened: MagnifiCon VII, May (spent together) and DKW.




MagnifiCon VII

It was some time ago and my memory isn't that good. I remember few things – really nice school building, fast vanishing queue, a lot of free space and ~ANO777's birthday 'conparty'.
Ehh, I'll try to put it in right order or something...

As I said before the queue disapeared really fast. In one moment people were standing in front of the building, in another there was no one there! Amazing. Was it a better solution for polish conventions? Dunno, really. I hope queues will vanish like that more often.

Our group had their own 'cosplay room' place for few hours. Discussion panels, workshops and stuff. I remember one thing – many wigs to style x_x


_{~ANO777 and ~chesterr prepared for their part in cosplay room}

Oh, I haven't mentioned anything about the con's neighbourhood – quiet and pretty place with shop and small 'restaurant' where every single person has been to _{as I suppose. I've seen many people in there}
I went there together with ~gdak, ~Sansex and ~inochi0 after my parts in Cosplay Room.
The funniest thing was – the lack of food people wanted. Everyone got pork chop with salad and potatoes. Still, it was tasty, thought.




Another important issue – cosplay. Yeah, cosplay....hmm....cosplay. Wat was with it? Well, many costumes, that's for sure, many good costumes and pretty nice stage.
Girls had two groups: 3rd uniforms from D.Gray-Man and Tsubasa Reblabhablah Chronicles.



After everything we had much fun in sleeping room. Especially with Chaos's wings.

And the birthday present for Ano.


May 2009 under the sign of Casual Vocaloid

Tha main destiny of us this year was to make an invitation video for KoneCon convention. We ended up in definitely other place with other things done. However, I had a lot of fun and the time spent together with friends was the nicest things ever

Everyone dressed, everyone ready but no-one with idea what to do. Ano was our main director with notebook and she knew everything _{ha ha...ha <D}. We had to to what she said!
Sansei was the main character – her pink power was everywhere!








Sometimes we had enought or someone else had their own time with camera. We were looking for other things to like. More of these photos won't be shown _{more private stuff, sorry XD} but tossing a teddy-pikachu or playing with cars and dogs!





As I said before – Ano knew everything. Being the main director means a lot – sacrifice and uncomfortable terms. Our brave Kaito~



The second day was all about trying out our skit and making gadgets. The very first attempts of KH drama with not-full staff and no costumes in high temperature. Of course quarell and ranting but that's normal. We still like each other <D




Also, in May in city called Gryfino there is a festival _{for three days. It's conected with the history of Poland}. Of course we had to go there and check everything out!




DKW – Dni Kwitnącej Wiśni aka. Days of Blooming Cherry or Blooming Mildew

:bullet: Tha last part of my „do-it-fast” journal. Fresh story from last weekend in Bytom but to tell you the turth – I have enough of writing about our mildewy 'hotel' and audience and stuff.
I want to let you know that Dkw was like school trip and, I think, everybody has a lot of fun.



Preparations, hastiness, running and shouting – sign of our skit. I turned out to be okay but still, we have to change something and probably will show it again.






The video with our skit can be found here:

I want to mention about ~Arashiek's birthday. There was a surprise for her while karaoke.
Again, best wishes



Shortly described DKW is short.
Big thanks for everyone who has spent that time together with us and helped with everything!


Next: KoneCon in Szczecin!

_{I promise next time I'll write a proper and pretty journal!}

Hi there guys!
We're really sorry it took us so long to update again! We hope you're all good and that this journal will be enough as return for your waiting!

Okay then, let's start! This time is again me, Niemti, writing. Prepare yourself for a loooong story!





Mokon Clamp Festival – welcome in Warsaw

If we want to go through that story with our calendar in hands we must start with Mokon – convention from 13th December.
What to say/write about this little fella'
People say different things about it – some think it was nice, some other shout „Mokon sukcs” and there are also neutral people _{(like me, maybe?)} who just went there and were and went back home without any bigger problems.
The truth is, I don't actually remember everything from that convention so I'll make it as short as possible and as long as my memory will let me.

Things I remember:
reallyyyy long queue _{which we didn't have to stay in, though}
manyyy manyyy shops and japanese stuff for fans
when I went inside I was like: „wow, looks kinda like Polish Expo or so. I bet it'll be great” _{good I didn't bet any money or my head or hand, gash, that would be creepy}
lots of people and lack of free space

I suppose, the worse part for people was cosplay. They told us to be ready at 5 p.m. but cosplay started after midnight. I pity for all people, girls, who had their chests bandaged and uncomfortable costumes _{for them and myself, well}
However, the level of costumes was really high. Everyone looked amazing and I think it was worth waiting to see all these great cosplayers in action!
Not to mention the Russian group who visited our polish convention.

Let's get going. I don't remember anything else ''

That so called „New Year”

Let's skip few weeks. We're now at the end of December. ~inochi0 came along to me and ~Sansex to help us prepare everything for party.
That part is, like, more private, so I'll only show you some photos. Plus, personally, I had a really great fun, hope everyone else did too!

EcchiCon 4th Strike – Warsaw

Yes, let's face the _almost present - 28-02.2009-1.03.2009 <--- looks creepy, huh? Nope, it's the correct date of convention.

When I finished my studies at Friday ~inochi0 and ~ANO777 surprised me, showing themselfes at my school to pick me up.
Together with Inochi we went back to my home to prepare everything for another long trip to Warsaw.



At 11.15 p.m together with ~linasakura we happily started our journey.
Warsaw greeted us at 6 a.m. Thankfully ~Sansex and ~puppetka were already at station to take us to the place where convention was.
Few calls and we were in, sleeping deeply _{of course after saying hello to our friends who were also inside}

I woke up at 10 o'clock _{I suppose} and went with Ano to take shower. After that....no, I don't know what was after that, but I for sure know that ~ANO777, ~linasakura and ~Mikaela-Maria dissapeared magically to take some photos of their Sould Eater costumes and Romeo and Juliet.

Together with my sis ~Sansex and ~inochi0 we went to take part in „ecchi costume project” contest. The fun was really great, imagination, I love ya' <D!
Girls went somewhere to preapare themselfes for Code Geas fotoshoot and me? Wwhat...oh! Right, styling :devmikaelia-maria:'s wig and ~Matys' hair.
Inochi was mad cause I promised her we will get dressed faster but my timing was, as always, bad.


_{~kwak's disscution panel}

Cosplay was supposed to start at 7 p.m or so, but of course everyone had to wait a bit longer. To many cosplayers to less space _{I think I written about situation like this earlier, haven't I?}
'Our' Code Geas gruop won first prize in „the most like chara” category! The were awesome and really think they deserved it.


_{Me as Neku from TWEWY; Photo by: ~k-w-a-k}

The good part of convention was for sure photo studio. Good looking cosplays in studio are good looking. Let's take a look:

Thanks for everyone who took us pictures!</sub>

As always ~linasakura took her part in karaoke, this time together with ~Sarcazm. They sang really nice but unfortunately 1st place was someone else's destiny.
What happened after that? Ecchi cosplay? No, it was a failure. Yuri and yaoi anime projections? Yeah, but I had to leave the room _{not mature on papers, though}. Practical yuri contest? Yes, please....Okay, no. I was weird.
Me and ~inochi0 ended up at small buffet somewhere in the undergrounds. ~ANO777, ~Sarcazm and ~MJeremy were there too so we talked a bit and played with plushie elephant and my tea.
But what happens when in buffet is no food? People gets mad, and when they're mad they want to find other way of entertaining. If there is only a stinky DDR room they go back to sleeping room. Pity, that big, bright light was just in front of our faces. Thankfully, it was after 3 a.m so we fell asleep kinda fast.






_{hot tea is hot}

8.30 <---traumatic hour when ~linasakura woke me up with a grin and words „Niemtiii, our discussion panel is about to begin~~”. Well, I had to stand straight and go with her _{I was late of course and as always}. Sitting with ~ANO777 we listened Lina and sometimes said something ourselves _{'sleeeep, need to sleeep' mode}
I think our part was done well and people weren't bored.

Again our discussion panel; photo by ~TEcHNOpl


Sorry, Had, I had to XD</sub>

Time to go back, you know. Saying hello we moved to train station. ~Sansex was with us. Our train to Szczecin was at 3 p.m but unfortunately ~inochi0 had to take other cause ours haven't stopped in Poznań at all.
So, our 4th person to group was ~Larennka and Garet for two hours. We spent them in section for bikes but in Toruń some places were free so we took them _{not by force.}
Our way back was really great thanks to the man 'who was the truck driver” and Ushi! _{Greeting for you guys, if you're reading <D}



Well, I suppose that's all. Not as long as I thought it would be! Till next time, then! And thank you all for reading :3
Photos from session will be uploaded later!
