Chibicon ticket arrived and other stuff too

I stayed home today from school because of, err, personal reasons and when I finally woke up at around 13:00 Finnish time I went to grab the post before my stepdad got home. It's awkward when my parents bring home my post because whenever I'm ordering stuff from overseas my mom at least gives me these "Again you have a packet from USA/Japan/whatever??", "What are you ordering?", "How much did it cost?" and "Don't you already have enough wigs/kimonos/whatever?" questions and let's say it's just... awkward. So I just try to take in the post first if I know I'm waiting for something to avoid those questions.
 There was a letter from Urumi and it contained my Chibicon ticket to Oulu, yay!
There also was this huge packet in there and by huge I mean huge, it took up the whole mailbox pretty much, lol. So it was from Japan and that meant it had to be my two black vintage kimonos. OMGYESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.
Now if only my wig order from Moemall would arrive soon so I can go take some WIP photos of my Hajime Saitou (Hakuouki) cosplay. Granted, I won't cosplay Saitou before Närcon (read: late July) this year but it doesn't hurt to be early...

Chibicon Oulu tickets!

Okay, so a few minutes ago I ordered a ticket for Chibicon in Oulu, yay so now I'll go there 100%! (cosplay is supposed to be Ichigo Kurosaki still)

The ticket cost 4 € (shipping price excluded), not bad. You can buy them here at Urumi's shop. I hope my friend buys one soon.
I will go there by train most probably because for once it wasn't ridiculously expensive.

Next con - Chibicon á la Oulu

Yeah, the next con I'm planning to attend is Chibicon. It's held at Oulu 7th April.
Good for me Oulu is not far away from my hometown (100 km maybe?) so it won't take a day to get there and cost my ass to travel. According to what I checked up the train tickets from Kemi would only cost me about 8 € one way and the same amount back again. OMG CHEAP. Well, compared to the 140+ € my train tickets to Lahti and back went on... Oh, and one of my mom's sisters lives there so maybe I could sleep over at her place. Hopefully. I don't know if the con has an entrance fee.. I guess it will...

I'm thinking about bringing my first or second, depending on what you count, Ichigo was the first I started making but second I debuted cosplay back to life after... err, a 2 years pause? I think my Ichigo Kurosaki cosplay last time saw daylight in December 2010. Oh booya that's some time ago man! You know, getting that 150 centimeters huge butcher knife from place A to place B isn't the most easy and convenient thing to do, especially not when the destination is at the other end of the country. -.-" That's why Ichigo has been forever alone in my closet, waiting for his time to shine, his huge-ass sword severely limits what cons I can take him to... But yeah, now when Oulu for the first time gets a con (although temporarily I guess because Chibicon seems to move from town to town now..?) I think I can bring him out... it will be interesting to travel with that sword though; I think I'll put it in my kendo sword carrying bag while at the train... it's a bit too short for it so the handle will stick out though.. but as long as it doesn't look overly suspicious I think it'll do.. you know, can't carry that thing open in public without getting stares, need to hide it. XD; Oh, and Jäärä will hopefully accompany me as Rukia Kuchiki from Bleach.
