Uppies!

First of all, no Natsu Matsuri updates cos I managed to arrive later & see the MASSIVE amount of people queuing inside the school gate. Outside the school gate also had people, they weren't allowed to go in... So I gave this event a miss. What is more devastating is that I'll have to give A.C.M.E a miss too :'( My mother planned a barbecue with her colleagues & I'm going along with her, thus = no cosplay & no pictures to share. Now I'll have to wait til November (?) for the next event, Anime Festival Asia X!

Head over to The Banzai! Effect to read on their Natsu Matsuri post

I found an amazing thread on sgcafe listing 'Buying, Renting, & Selling' for cosplay costumes, accessories, etc. It's really elaborate & goes by anime series, then character and the username of the seller/buyer/renter. Then you just have to scroll down & find the username, & click on the link to view the thread. Of course, some updates are slow but this is expected, there are so many threads & the compiler has to sift through every thread to update.
Without further ado, here is the link! http://sgcafe.com/cosplay/73051-listing-recent-wts-wtr-wtb-costumes-shoes-props-weapons-also-my-fs-wig-batch.html

Events in August

*Points to title* As mentioned, today shall be about Events in August. Coming up, we have NatsuMatsuri, which translates to Summer Festival in English.


NO COSPLAY IS ALLOWED, Yukatas are available for rental at $2 (Cheap, considered to buying from shops which cost $100+ (I think) There are local stalls who sell them too.
My guess is that it'll be something like those Summer Festivals you see in anime (From my inference because I have never gone for the past years)
Food will be sold, like Japanese Curry, Bentos, Sushi, Candy apples.

More details here: http://sgcafe.com/events/73817-2010-natsumatsuri-2010-official-details-sgcafe-shuttle-bus-service.html and http://www.jas.org.sg/event/summerfes/2010/1008/summerfestival.htm



The following week, there's A.C.M.E II A Certain Magical Event

Details
Date: 28 August (Sat)
Starts at: TBC
Venue: Sculpture Square (How to get there http://www.sculpturesq.com.sg/location.html)
Admission Fee: Free
I'm guessing the main highlight would be the Touhou Hisoutensoku Tournament. It's some game challange I guess, you have to sign up if I'm not wrong.
