Went to the So-Cal Cosplay Spring Gathering today. Never been to something like this and i have no idea who linked this to me but it just seemed like something totally fun to go to! We had decided to go some time ago but only finalized our plans to go yesterday and since i didn’t want to wear my Shugo Chara cosplay since it’s so hot i decided to make something on the fly! Went and got the material for the shirt and made the shirt last night and already had the shorts, wig, and borrowed the boots from a friend. Easy cosplay and fast FTW!

Went with a couple of my friends, we arrived a bit late only to meet my friends Fancy India and her boyfriend Loren. They dressed up as random Ouran High Students.

Found another Sheryl Nome! Didn’t get more pictures with her since we left a little while after… I had tons of fun, plus the fact that we didn’t have to pay for anything was awesome! They had listed on their website how you had to pay $10 and when we got there we were contemplating staying there without paying. But then these Park Rangers came up and asked us if we paid for our entrance fee for the gathering. We were worried they were gonna kick us out since we didn’t and told them we hadn’t but were going to. They then informed us that since we were in a public park they are not allowed to charge for entrance for the gathering. They told us how the $10 is only supposed to be a “donation” and that if we did pay to go back and ask for our money back! They did do a raffle and have BBQ so we didn’t mind not paying since we weren’t gonna participate in either. I had tons of fun and would totally go back and do this again for sure! No complaints yet i do wonder why their website listed Bill Cosby would be there and we didn’t see bill Cosby or even any Jello Pudding! I’m not sure if it was a joke? Or if he did arrive but arrived after 4pm since that’s around the time we left. Either way since i didn’t pay i can’t complain about anything, and even if i did pay i don’t think i would have complained since i did happen to have a blast! Also had someone ask to do a photo shoot, can’t wait till i get the pictures back, if i get his permission I’ll post them here later!
