Since I was little I’ve wanted to visit a Disney theme park. Living in Australia makes that somewhat difficult. But recently I visited both DisneyLand and DisneySea in Tokyo! It was a whirlwind couple of days, and I had an amazing time!
Nerdvember Challenge 2018 – Final Week
The final week of Nerdvember is here! This challenge is a whole heap of fun, and this is the last installment for this year.
Nerdvember Challenge 2018 – Week Three
Week three of Nerdvember means we’re over half way through! I love planning and wearing geeky outfits, so here is what I came up with this week.
Nerdvember Challenge 2018 – Week Two
Nerdvember week two! I’m getting pretty excited about wearing lots of fun geeky fashion and generally just put more thought into my passions, which makes me smile.
Nerdvember Challenge 2018 – Week One
Here is the start of my Nerdvember Year Two. A whole week worth of wearing nerdy things that make me happy!
Novice Mage Robes from the world of Skyrim
At a convention last year I picked up a voucher for a photo shoot with professional photographers and wanted to have a cosplay to wear for it. I love cosplay, but I lack a lot of confidence to wear it and suffer from chronic procrastination in the build process. I hoped having a deadline might help me build something awesome. And you know what? It did! I build a Novice Mage from the world of Skyrim!
The Day Space Mountain Put On a Special Show
The very first time I visited and DisneyLand, and only the second time I attended any Disney theme parks I knew I had to ride Space Mountain. Whilst I was riding, Space Mountain died. Or coughed momentarily, then recovered really… but the end result was that I got an unexpected behind-the-scenes look at the inside of the roller coaster with the lights on!
Street Clothes from the Dark Side
The type of geeky clothing I love best is the kind that it may not be immediately obvious that a geeky reference is being made. This outfit was just like that. It features bits and pieces from the dark side of the force with an overall red and black colour scheme.

Sewing a Pleated Minnie Mouse DisneyBound Skirt
Very soon I will be heading to DisneyLand in Tokyo for the very first time! I’m excited about this trip, so to put that excitement into something usable I’ve been planning and making outfits. The first one was a mermaid skirt to wear to DisneySea, but this time I’m making a red skirt with white spots to DisneyBound as Minnie Mouse herself. This project was planned in the “winging it” style, and meanders along the kind of path you would expect for a project with minimal planning. But I finished it in the end, and this is a fun skirt to wear!
Read Comics in Public Day 2018
Happy Read Comics In Public Day! This year I wandered to the local park after work and discovered that Wonder Woman is a very distracting comic. So distracting that I read it until it was too dark to read any more!
