Rae's Corner

It is official that I will be doing the review of my Viktor cosplay and the wig that I bought very soon. I picked up the wig this morning from my housing office and have tried it out but will have to trim and style the wig a bit before I take pictures for the post. Though overall I am very happy with it there are still dome minor things that I wish they would have done better. On a side note I slipped off of my Penny Nickle on the way to class today in the damp rain today. :( No major scrapes or injuries but I did get a few cuts on my left hand from bracing my fall,in order to keep from sliding across pavement into oncoming traffic. A huge thanks to my boss though, I ended up going straight to my bookstore where (where I work) to see if we had any big band-aids and she helped me get them on so I could still make it to class on time. If you're reading this you are the best, lol. Though enough rambling  that's it for this post and I hope to see you at the next one! -Rae A

      Hello Everyone! I am finally feeling better, I luckily only picked up a common cold though it had lingered around for some time I am fine. I returned to classes last week and am now picking back up on the blog in between catching up with my school work. What the wig is supposed to look like       Some of you may ask what's with the delay of the review of the Viktor cosplay that I said I was going to do. Well please don't fret I really hope I will have it up soon. I have started the post but wanted to wait for my Viktor wig to arrive though unfortunately China Post takes forever to get here, so I do apologize that it is the current reason that I have not done the review for you all. I ordered it back on March 11th if i'm right and the delivery date has a huge gap ranging from March 31st - April 30th if I remember correctly which is very disappointing... Just checked my amazon and at the moment my order says that it has arrived in the US but still is not supposed

Yup, guess who managed to catch this cold like sickness that's going around, that's right I did. How you ask - My roommate and my manager. Within the last two weeks both my roommate and my manager came down with really bad colds, my managers was written off as the common cold but my roommate was told that she may or may not have the flu which the entire apartment had been exposed to well before she went in to get a check up. Everything was going fine and no one else was showing symptoms though over the course of going to work and being exposed to the common cold working with my boss (who cous not take off because all the other managers were out on vacation and or sick themselves) and then coming home to a sick roommate I should have known I could not bypass the chance of catching something., which i unfortunately did. :( On a brighter note though I did recieve my Victor cosplay track suit in the mail yesterday and plan on doing a review here on the blog perhaps this weeken

Just a simple little update. It's Saturday, not much to do but catch up on some math homework and think about future blog posts. I haven't drawn much of anything lately due to classes and work though I am looking for ideas and or requests of things to draw and I am always up for suggestions in the comments be low this post. Though on another note I would like to mention that if you have not seen my last post here about my Ko-Fi account please go check it out. I am trying to stay on campus this year for the summer so that I can keep my job and be able to support myself, but I need a little help with raising the money to make the payments. Each donation is 3$ through my Ko-Fi page and is very much appreciated in the fact that you all are helping me pay for a place to stay for the summer. Ko-Fi And as always please check me out on other social media which is always linked below the date of every post! Thanks and i'll see you in the next post! -Rae Mar. 18th, 2017

Hey everyone as of yesterday I set up a Ko-Fi account in order to help with raising enough money to pay for my summer housing at my university. I will be moving into West Lake during the first week of May at the moment. Though at the same time I have to either pay in full or make two payments in order to be able to stay for the summer. I ended up getting a placement in the 3 bedroom single section so I will have to pay 1840$ in total for one full payment or I can choose to pay 920$ on the 1st of May and the 1st of June. (button is at the top of the right column if you would like to check out or even donate to my page) Universities page - http://www.fgcu.edu/Housing/prospective/gulf-coast-town-center.html In order to reach my goal I will need about 613 donations to cover the full cost. I may not be able to reach this number of people but I will try and I will be doing other things on the side in order to help add to any donations that I may get. Please check me out on other soc

Welp, it only really took the first episode for me to die in the fandom and want to try my hand at it soooo... I got a used pair on ebay for the hell of it.  I have been on the ice a few times now, fallen less than I thought I would but none the less fallen. While I do not have the money at the moment I would love to take lessons at some point. Many would say that there is no hope for me to start considering I am already 20 and will be 21 in may of this year - but eh to heck with them I just wanna have fun. Viktor has got to be my current favorite and as mentioned in yesterdays post I will be cosplaying him at Metrocon this year. I ordered his Track Suit online from Harajuku In Wonderland but can not give ant type of review for them yet as I have not gotten my cosplay yet. Though I must say it has been hard trying to contact them during the process and I hope that they will deliver with the final product, so please be on the look out for a post on that in the futu

So it is official I am going to MetroCon this year. I actually got my ticket some time at the beginning of the month but have not had the chance to do a post here on the blog. My current line up for this event is : Viktor Nikiforov, Toph Beifong, Ciel Phantomhive (In wonderland). Raven (Teen Titans - Grey Timid version) At this very moment I am hand sewing my cloak for Raven with this tutorial Here  - Which I managed to cut my hood wrong on the first go round but ended up adding an extra seam. Pictures will be posted sometime soon on Instagram and then later here.  Currently planning to work on Toph after Raven since they are a bit simpler and I can take about an hour out of my busy week (or at least try) in order to work on making the cosplays. Viktor's cosplay id planned to be a summer project as I want to make sure I spend hella long making that one and making sure everything is correct, lol. And last but not least, I already have my Ciel in Wonderland cosplay from

I am a student and I work part time at my University Bookstore. I am sure that I have mentioned this before in many other posts but I though I would explain it a bit more in depth. This semester I Have four upper level classes that I go to Tuesday - Thursday. Two of my classes meet twice in that time frame and then the other two meet once. Aside from that I work all other days (including Sunday when asked). Hours can range from 7:45 A.M - 6 P.M Monday -Thursday when I am not in class. 7:45 A.M - 5 P.M. on Fridays and occasionally 9:45 - 2 P.M on Saturdays. Leaving Sundays to be my only free day aside from having to do homework or room cleaning. I literally don't have time to do much of anything, LOL - I'll make it though. I know its hard to seem as though this blog will ever catch on but I really hope that is does. In the mean time please do go check me out on other social media.

    Hey everyone, once again I took quite some time off from the blog. During this time I have dedicated more time to my second Instagram  @CCwithRae which is now hosting my Art, Photography and of course Cosplay coming soon. Though of course all I still have my personal account @Rae_Kanahime as well if you would like to check either out.    I have also done my best to begin posting on my Facebook page Rae as well as have planned to start vlogging once a week when possible between classes and work. These videos may be a little bit delayed due to the fact that I am just learning how to use Adobe Premier Pro, but I am happy to take any tips in the comments to help me on my way.   Aside from these little updates I am happy to say that I am back and hope to get more content out to you all in the soon future! -Rae Feb. 23rd, 2017 Youtube  -  Twitter  -  Facebook  -  Tumblr  -  Instagram  -  Twitch  -  Archive Of Our Own  - World Cosplay
