Three times in a row

Keep it /cgl/ related

God fucking damn why

Ok I'll start

>tfw got two dream dresses in a row
>tfw poor
>tfw this has pretty much been the same pattern for the past few months

On one hand I'm so happy it's raining dream dresses on me, on the other hand goddamn the premium is huge when you want to be THE person to get it and you never know when it's going to pop up again.

I keep missing all the dramu!

>Planning a trip to Florida (partly for con/to meet a cosplay friend, partly for vacation)
>None of my friends want to leave their state/can't save money even though I'm telling them a whole year in advance
>Got one friend who is the real MVP and says they'll come with, same friend that travelled here to visit me this summer
>bittersweet because I won't have to go alone but really wish my other friends would travel instead of me always having to go to them
Every time we go to a con together, I have to travel 5+ hours while they never do the same. I get annoyed because I pay bills, work, and go to school and can still save up for cons and cosplays while most of them get to keep any money they make and still can't seem to save one penny.

Sucks even more because I can't seem to make any friends here, despite talking to people at cons.

>went thrift store shopping today to get started on cult party kei
>found loads of fitting clothes: frilly skirts and shorts, peach lingerie, plain and nice shirts
I can't wait for them to be dry so I can start working on a coord. I'm a bit anxious because it's probably going to be a bit hard since I have no accessories or fitting shoes yet, but it's a start.

Also I can't wait to get better at embroidery so I can embroider cool designs on the plain shirts, it's going to be rad.

It's my own fault, should have known I couldn't handle the heat, but I'm still feeling bitter.

I said he was interested, doesn't mean he's going to end up doing it. The costume he wants is rather ambitious, anyways.

I figure he'll probably never do it and never turn into a crazy. At least if I have the costume that matches, he can be in awe of me.

I wanna go but I'm so bad at making friends, also I know a lot of these people and they know me back from my high school cringe years. That was years ago and I'm MUCH more reserved and less autistic but I'm so scared of people calling me out.

Also check if wet sanding works on plastics. You don't need to go the CNC route, anon, that's the lazy expensive way out.

I'm really anxious to get back into cosplay. I've had to rebuy literally everything since most of it got stolen. A lot of it was given to my ex so now I'm basically rebuilding and I'm feeling really good about it. Anxious, confident, and happy. I just want to make stuff again on my time, my desire, my interests.

I've been dealing with some shitty depression for a few years now. I've lost all interest in cosplaying and being creative. I feel so sad when I think about how uninterested I am in everything.
