Good looking, though.

Yep, those are rad glasses.

But BoP's dress is radder

Hm, I've scrutinized my brain's register of comic, manga , tv and game characters but I can't tell whether you're trying to look like a specific one?

Nope, not anything specific, just gothic lolita.

I've known other girls who wore gothic lolita that was kinda creepy; this one is actually quite nice, though.

I only know one girl in person who dresses gothic lolita and she is adorable. She's rather pretty and very delicate looking. She wears lolita stuff almost every day. I don't know though, BoP might just be cuter. Especially with that smile.

Aw thanks, Katya! I am impressed that the girl you know dresses like that every day, though! O_o

Thanks! And you totally should! It was so much fun doing this! I agree on the choker... and I think I needed a big ass bow in my hair as well... Next time!

Thanks! I think asians have a different approach to cosplaying than we do (there're different cultural mores re: sexuality & youth).

BoP, does 'cosplay costume' automatically indicate you made it yourself too? It looks like something very difficult to make! It looks good on you.
I don't think it's a requirement to be home-made, no. And this is all totes store bought! And thanks.

Dinosaurs!

Nice pics Nerdanel. That Niglo cat is just too cute! Is he your cat, or just a resident at the Moroccan farm?

As for the wedding, why are there no pics of the food?

Allosaurus!


The greatest predator ever to walk the planet. And the skull of a T-Rex in comparison.


Triceratops!


I tried to comfort this poor mammoth that somehow got stuck in a wall.

Nice! Although I don't think you're supposed to touch the Triceratops.

Does the Allosaurus have an abnormal bone-growth in his foot, or is it just a shadow on the photo? If it is bone-growth than that specimen is probably a cast from Big Al! (Which would even be cooler. )

I knew someone would comment on the Triceratops (and it's no surprise that you'd be the first)
I actually have another pic of me and the Triceratops, to show those who are touchy about touching

I'm not sure I can see the "abnormal bone growth"? You mean on his middle foot, in the foreground?

Heheh, I know how irresistable it is to touch them from experience, but most exhibitions I've been too have taken that into account and moved the skeletons out of reach.

Yes, in the middle of his right foot, on the bone above the middle toe-bone.

Ah, like over it's third metatarsophalangeal articulation then
I don't know, maybe it's callus after a fracture?

There were also fossils of an Iguanodon (with its renowned thumbs), a Protoceratops and a Diplodocus.
