this time of the year, for the past many years except last year .. i'd be busy planning for my annual trip to Singapore Comic-Con. i would have gotten my VIP pass by now, emailed all guest artists for an (expensive) art commission piece from each, and be sorting out my 2 different cosplay attire - Casual Saturday outfit, Full Costume Sunday.

but little did i know back in 2018, this outfit (pictured) would have been my last STGCC Casual Sat - cos they changed the dates from Oct to Dec last year (hence i couldn't attend). so early Jan this year, i made plans to be sure i could attend this Dec, and was already planning on 90s Jessica Jones for Sat, and Gamerverse Kamala Khan for Sun. but then ..

COVID-19.

and with the way things still are, it looks highly unlikely i would be able to atttend again this year, or even if they are able to run it at all.

getting art commissions is not a problem since i can still easily contact some of the artists online. but i really do miss dressing up for a Comic-Con. its not something i do for the events in Perth or Melbourne cos they're too small in comparison, hence i'm always looking forward to the big one in Singapore cos i got more friends attending it from around the world.

oh well. fingers crossed its still happening. else, 2021 then ...
