Well, I did this up a while ago for when Caity and I wanted to do a cover of the song 'Otpuskayu' by Maksim to counter the fact that Caity can't read Russian, since I couldnt find a transliterated version anywhere. I have since finally found an instrumental version (Alright...I wasnt actually looking that hard xD) and so found my transliterated lyrics again, horray!
And since I couldnt find it anywhere else, I decided to put it up here. It may help someone xD
*Please note that this is translated as the words are read, so stressed 'o's are actually written as 'a', not 'o'/ Plus characters like Я, Ю etc are written Ya, Yu etc (respectively), instead of with a J like how it is normally done. (Why?? Я makes a 'ya' sound! Not a 'j'. I dont understand....)
Отпускаю - Максим
Otpuskayu - Maksim

Helena Skirt
Well some time ago I purchased a quantity of blue fabric with the intention of turning it into skirt that sits on the waiste, above knee lenght, etc. I cut out the pieces but it just wasnt working out, the the idea was scrapped.
But, whilst browsing the free patterns on Burda, I came across this skirt -
Visit Sarah's blog here
Click here to visit Burda for the pattern
It seemed so quick and easy, plus the pattern could be printed at home! So I gathered up some of my old school work, stuck it in the printer (recycling FTW) and walla! Pattern!
But, what material? Then I came across the blue material, layered the pattern pieces on it, praying they would fit. Perfect =D
About 2 hours later, and walla! -
I only realised after how creased it was >.<# (Thats what I get for leaving it on the back of my computer chair...) And excuse my terrible hair (It looks so red 0.0), I have just been to the hairdressers so its still settling in.
So yeah, quite cute of I do say so myself~ Lovely with a simple singlet and mid - lenght blouse. Id imagine a large, chunky necklace or belt would really help liven it up =D I plan on changing the buttons, and I am thinking about perhaps making a black one =D
Price? About $3. (Im loving this whole sewing clothes at home thing...Haha!). Highly recommended =D

The beach, Cosplay Progress + a quick skirt!
First off, mum and I's trip to the beach went splendid -
Not bad considering it wasn't until I got home that I could finally see what I had taken pictures off - Many good shots where ruined because I didnt realise the dog was standing right int the middle of them >.<# I have splendid eyesight...
