Whew~ The past three days have been so tiring yet immensely enjoyable (:
I attended Manifest (Melbourne Anime Convention) on Friday, Saturday and Sunday!
I’ll be doing three separate blog posts for each of the days, mainly because I took quite a bit of photos and having one long post would be a little overkill? Aha~ Anyway, let’s start Manifest on the Friday Morning !
I pretty much based this entire look off a fanart I found on tumblr/pixiv !
Although, I didn’t really wear the megane (glasses) because the only “fake” ones I had were those 3D popped out ones and I didn’t wanna wear my real glasses cos I had contacts on. And also, I find glasses are very annoying to wear .. but I guess since I don’t wear mine often, I’m not too used to it.
I was really unsure on what I wanted to wear for this day as although I originally had planned to do Shiemi (Ao no Exorcist), I didn’t have the complete outfit due to lack of time/money (and I kind of got lazy with preparation..) Also, Vu wasn’t cosplaying (cos he ceebed cosplaying as Okumura Rin) so I didn’t want to do anything too over the top? Anyway, I quite liked this outfit for something simple and nothing too outstanding ^_^”!
I didn’t end up purchasing much on that day, yet somehow, the total money spent went to above $100?! (Inc Food)
Anyway, I bought three plushies, a “mystery” mini-food box and a Manga Artist Collection #4 ! (Rest were freebies)
I was extremely happy with these purhcases!
Firstly, the Manga Artist Collection #4 is something that I’ve been looking for ages, I have volumes #2, #3 and #5 which were bought ages ago when I was in early high school, and I’m missing volumes because they discontinued it in Australia grr! But I was so happy cos it was only $25 when the ones I bought ages ago were sold at $50 ^__^!!
And then secondly, two of the plushies I bought were E. coli and S. aureus! !
If you don’t know what they are, it’s okay. They’re two different types of bacteria that I am very familiar with due to having to continuously use them for my labs at Uni! People thought I were quite strange for buying them; but I think only Biomed/Science/Med etc students would understand xPP !
Anyway, I think that’s enough for the post on Manifest Friday!!
Look out for the next two posts on Saturday and Sunday which should be uploaded fairly soon after this one ^_^”!
(And if you’re impatient to know what I cosplayed as on the other days, I posted a few pictures of myself on my tumblr ~!)

Looked good in a suit, but you shoulda worn those 3D glasses to complete the cosplay! And wow, that’s a lot of money to spend on food XD Did you manage to find the photo stickers or that’s someone else’s? =]
Aha! I did wear them for like … 30 minutes and it was just awkward and shiz ;A;
AND I CANT BELIEVE I LOST THEMMM. I took the photo of these before I cut them up ;___;

Naww you look cute!
It was nice bumping into you on Saturday by the way! :D
Yes it was !!
I apologize if I seemed kind of confused at first xP I was kind of shocked hehe. I shall be posting some pictures of us soon :3
Hah! I saw the card with E.coli in your photo and was like, “WTF?! Why would they have those cards at Manifest?!” Hahaha they have similiar plushies at the Melbourne Museum!
Ahaha! They’re so cuteee :3
Waaiiiiiii you’re so cute Melody!! I love your outfit! Even without megane it looks very complete and like the photo :D
It’s crazy how easily money just flys out of your pocket an conventions! I try not to buy any food at the actual convention though because the prices are horrendously overpriced. Maybe at Manifest it’s different?? At Fanime a hotdog costs 6 bucks!! @___@ Not to mention a small box of Pocky is around $3?? I shed a tear each time I see someone fork over precious dollars for something that cost them only .50 cents *sigh* Then again they probably don’t care, but still it’s annoying! >_w< My older sister has a couple of them too :D Ohh and I just realized, is that a potato from Plants vs. Zombies?? LOLOL!! I'm glad you found the exact copy you needed and at such a good price too yayyyyy :D
Purikura!! ;o; I'm so sad they got rid of the purikura machines at the mall……… the last time I used them was probably 2 years ago?! I regret not jumping in one at Fanime..! Guess I have to wait till we go to San Francisco blehhhh :((
AHHH THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUU <3
And omg yeah! I NEVER BUY FOOD AT CONS ;A; They are way way way wayyyy too overpriced ! We ate in the city after each day of the con cos its so much cheaper :I THEY JUST WANNA TAKE ALL OUR MONEY ON THE DAY ;A; ! Ughh. They tried selling me Pocky for $3 too! and I'm like :I I can get that for wayyy cheaper x.x ' !! And yessssssssss! It's wallnut from Plants vs Zombies *___* SO CUTE ISNT HE tehehehe /hugsssssssss/ ! AH they also got rid of the purikura near my place ;a; so now I havta travel ALL THE WAY to the city just to take some ;_______; /cries in a hole forever/
Hi! This blog is just WOW! ;) You look cute heyyy! But if you add lip-gloss on, you will look much prettier I think;)☆
Ahah thank you >.<!
I had lipgloss on but it kind of wore off and it was hard for me to reapply when I'm walking around ^^" ! And I don’t always like the stickyness of it :( But thank you for the tip ! x
Lol, another photo of you and Vu eating whilst at a convention!
Is that … a Plants vs. Zombies Wall-nut plush in your purchases photo?! That game is ze bombbb! (Or should I say … Cherry Bomb! Okay, I’ll stop now.)
Teheh! It was yummmyyy ice cream *___* <3
And YES it isss! AHAH xP There was a cherry bomb selling toooo!! But wallnut is so adorable *_*
Omg, plush dolls for bacteria?! I’ve only seen plush dolls for STD’s which … were weird but they were still cute … especially Gonorrhea. XD; But ahhh, its such a cute way to not only be reminded of the bacteria’s name and appearance but it just makes your studies more personal and fun! *_*
The cosplay you had on for this day is SOOO CUTE. ;-; I went on your tumblr to reblog some pics of you. D’: -creep-
They’re super super awesome *____*!!!!
Tehehe, and eeee, you are definitely not a creep /hugsss/ YOU ARE JUST REALLY AWESOME !
*staring at your eyes* they are so biiiiiiiiiiig!! And you’re still just sooo adorable! love love love it~!! You sure know how to pull off cosplay so well!
Eee~ Not that big ;A;!
And ahah thank youuuu bunny x3
