I’ve done it all by my own!
I have watched many tutorials!
5. Which was your 1st cosplay outfit? What was the process like putting it together?
My first cosplay was Killua from Hunterxhunter. It wasn’t hard to get. I randomly found clothes that fits.

I don’t really have one because it’s changing everytime when I get a new one!
*laughs*
7. Do you do cosplay events or competitions? Do you have a favorite you like to attend and why?
Yes!
Me and some friends are organizers of a convention named Kitaumicon. This is also one of my favorite conventions. My dance group always there to show some choreography!
8. Do you make or buy your cosplay? Or
maybe both? Do you have any stores or sellers you highly recommend to aspiring cosplayers?
I do both.
*laughs*
I mostly go to the nearest store named Tedox. They do have some fabrics but, sadly, not much.
Sometimes I go to fabric markets.
9. What do you enjoy about cosplay?
I enjoy trying something new. I love to be creative and try out new makeup!
10. What has your experience been like sharing your cosplay online?
At first, it wasn’t something important to me.
But now, it is!
I love to share my work with others!

Do whatever you want to do!
Don’t even give a f**k about the haters!
