My Next Cosplay Idea!

   So as you probably already know, I love the Legend of Zelda games. So I had the idea to cosplay as Sheik from Ocarina of Time and Super Smash Bros Brawl! The cosplay I would be doing would be from SSBB though. I love Sheik because of her ninja-like fighting style, her mysterious figure, and her outfit. So that's what I'm wanting to cosplay as this year! I'll post some pictures of Sheik from brawl, so you can get a preference of what he/she looks like (and because why not xD).



My First Cosplay: Twilight Princess Zelda

   So for Halloween in 2015, I cosplayed as Zelda from Twilight Princess. I don't have much to say about how I made it (mostly because I can't remember xD) but I did bring it to Radcon with my bro this year, and I brought it to Comicon this year (with my best friend, her sister, and her sister's friend). At Radcon, I found a piano in the hotel for anyone to play. So, I sat down to start playing songs from Zelda. Slowly but surely, small crowds of people would come and listen! It was such a magical experience, because people dressed as another character from my game (Link) would come talk to me, some would have song requests, but most just listened. That was my favorite part about Radcon, and my favorite part about Comicon was probably all of the merchandise and getting pictures. And Kaylin (my friend), Taryn (her sister), Clara (Taryn's friend) and I all have a group name now: TCKG! It's just all of our initials put together, but yeah. It's pronounced as Ticikiga! So yeah, that's our cosplay group xD. Okay, my face looks REALLY BAD in most of these pictures, because at the time, I had no clue how to pose in this costume, and so I went with an awkward smirk thingy ma jigger (especially the ones with Ghirahim and Sheik)... But enjoy the pics!







This is my friend Kaylin, who cosplayed as Bunny Blanc from Ever After High.

This is Kaylin's older sister Taryn, who cosplayed as Sinon from Sword Art Online.

This is Taryn's friend Clara, who cosplayed as Yugo from Wakfu.

And this is me xD.
All of us!!

Introduction :)

   Hellooo! My name is Gracie, and I'm a twelve year old nerd. I found out that I was a nerd when I started playing the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time... and then Skyward Sword... and then Wind Waker... and Twilight Princess. So yeah. That was when I found out about my slight obsession with the Zelda games. And then it was Halo 3, Halo Reach, Star Wars, etc. Other games I have watched people play (haven't gotten a chance to play them myself) that I like are Assassin's Creed: Black Flag and Skyrim. So yeah, those are some of my fandoms! Just about two years ago, my older brother (Tanner) got into cosplaying. He's still sort of a beginner, but he's gotten way better over time. The last cosplay he did was an ODST from Halo (I'll include a picture below). But during November of 2015 was when I decided that I wanted to start cosplaying (I know I still have a ways to go before I get really good, but you know...). With my first cosplay (and right now my only cosplay), I had the help of my brother. But my brother just left to go to Germany for two years, so right now, I'm on my own! Okay, I've explained enough about cosplays. I titled this blog "Cosplayer With Type One" because I have type one diabetes! It's basically a disease where for some random reason, little things called anti-bodies attacked an organ in my body called a pancreas, which produces insulin that breaks down sugar in my blood. So now my pancreas doesn't make insulin, and I have to pump insulin into myself with a little device thingy-ma jigger that is connected to my body with a tube. And I have to stab my fingers 8 times a day to check how much sugar is in my blood. So that's my intro! Stay tuned for more! :)
