Woohoo! My spirits are up...I'm exhausted, but happy after our Cosplay Kingdom 3-day convention success at Anime Weekend Atlanta. Looks like all our hard work paid off...Thank you Jesus for your blessings! (^_^) I had lots of fun cosplaying as well! Here are some of the pictures from Friday, Saturday and Sunday...


Mike joins Elaine and May as they cosplay
Naru and Kanako from Love Hina on Friday.


The Mashimaro hat is a perfect fit for
this cuddly anime fan! Doesn't he look cute!?!


Early morning on Saturday, May, Elaine and
their mom smile at the Cosplay Kingdom table.
People wait in line to register in the background.


Elaine and May pose as Tohru and Kagura with
Shigure and Kyou cosplayers. Furuba rocks!
(^_-)v


Posing with a Yuki cosplayer who bought
our Yuki hat.


Kagura can't get enough of Kyou!
\(^_^)/ Kyou ga suki desu!


The Kaguras fighting for Kyou's love!


Mike's new Kamineko hat threatens to bite
May's hand.


May experiences the "sign" phenomenon
so common at anime cons.


Nothing cuter than a girl holding her cat!
(=^.^=)Meow!


On Sunday, the girls were asked for photos
even in their normal wear! (^_-)v hehehe
These Super Gals are ready for Shibuya!


However, May's not ready to become
a samurai just yet. (>.<) Doh!

From my heart to God

Has it really been so long? I always think about you...but somehow not enough. I feel so left behind. It's my own fault. Where are you? I wonder...though I'm not doing a good job seeking you. I know you're there when I fall...but I don't want to keep falling anymore. I want to soar with you.

Somehow all around me there's darkness. Can you still see my light...or has it completely faded away? I know you draw near to me...when I draw near to you...why do I tend to stay away?

I know I love you...then why is it so hard for me to show you with more than just words?

I need you...but then I act like I don't. My spirit craves for you...but I end up feeding my flesh instead. When will I stop being my own worst enemy, Lord?

Sometimes I hate myself...but I always remember that you love me. There's nothing that could ever separate me from your love...why do I feel so lonely?

Don't let my heart grow bitter...erase any hate rooted in my soul. Fill me with your love, Lord.

I feel like I can't even cry anymore...do my tears have any redeeming value at all anyway?

I look at myself and I think about all the millions of times I've asked you for forgiveness...how many more times will you forgive me each time I fall? Is there a limit before you say no more?

Something good in me dies every day I ignore you...how my spirit craves for you, Lord!

I pray for myself now...please, don't cast me away...I want my light to shine as bright as the stars in the heavens.

I am NOTHING without you, Jesus. Take me to a place of true freedom...guide my steps...let me know you're near.

I'm tired of seeing nothing but myself...my own failures, fears, my doom. Why can't I change?

I need a miracle...

Pictures of the Day

An army of trucks from the power company
fill a section of a shopping strip parking lot.
I guess they're waiting just in case something
happens after Ivan? (._.?)

Hurricane Frances has come and gone...but we're still suffering from its effects. Thank God we're doing fine and we didn't have any major damages over here. But there's lots of split trees and huge fallen branches all over. Apparently one tree fell on the power line that supplies power to a huge section of town - including our house. So we've been without power since Saturday. We're also without water since our house water supply comes from a well. So basically, we're not having too much fun these days. Fortunately, our aunt's house next door has had power the past two days so we've been able to function a little out of there.

Today we got back to working and sewing...we wonder if we'll everything ready for the convention later this month. We've fallen a lot behind schedule. Oh, well... that also means I won't have time to make the new costumes for the One Piece cosplay group. (Maikeru! Gomen nasai!) I'm bummed out...but hey, things could always be worse...and I'm glad they're not. (^^)

We've returned from our first time cruise adventure...we had a lot of disapointments, but at the same time we managed to have fun and enjoy it.
Hurricane Frances...we don't like you.

"I'm Queen of the World! Woohoo!"

The food at the buffet may not have been the best, but they sure had yummy treats on the last night.

We took too many pictures to post them all here. I'll probably put them all on a separate page and send the link to you guys when I have it ready!
