AnimeFest 2026 Sunway Pyramid

 So....we took a quick trip over to Sunway Pyramid.....coz of Anime Fest.....

I was NOT prepared. I was at Hoyo Fest with Yusuf and this time, Safiyya and Ali Imran wanted to come along so Shu got Yusuf and I 2-day passes while he and the other 2 babies got the one day passes. Yusuf and Safiyya are shopaholics. They could spend shitloads at an event like this and we'd end up with so much stuff.

Yusuf and I skipped breakfast on the morning of the first day thinking we were gonna be late. When we got there, there was already a line. A LONG ASS FREAKIN LINE. But, we were behind a blue haired girl who was not in full costume yet at the time. I spotted a guy in a Ghostbusters costume with an awesome looking Proton Pack on his back. I thought he was gonna get in line but he took a turn before we got to the end of the line so we continued lining up. 

Once the event started, the line moved pretty quickly. The first day was always the walkthrough day. The first floor was where the main convention center and stage was. There were lots of big names like Medialink, and Cheetah and OH! Gatcha and Not Only Toy. But the artist alley was always the fun bit. Not so fun on the pocket but very very fun to walk around. Especially when you get to meet the artists themselves.

Well, I got myself a super huge Death Eater hoodie from Cheetah coz......I wanted it even though it was super huge on me. As soon as I put on my black cat ears, it looked like ME ^_^

Anywho, Yusuf spent so much money and there were so many kids dressed as Umamusume characters. Again, just like Genshin Impact and Honkai Starail......I don't play Umamusume either but I am aware of the art style and characters. I met so many other cosplayers as well, Hollow Knight, Master Roshi, Genshin and Honkai characters, Ultraman.....Taro and Zero, I think.....they were walking....Zoey from K-Pop Demon Hunters, Yor from Spy X Family,Shinobu Kocho,Satoru Gojo.....well...there were also Marvel and DC cosplayers too......again, I could only spot and take pictures with so many of them.....

ALL OF THEM were dressed so FREAKIN NICELY! I got myself art prints and books on the second day. From Dave Fuse Imaginarium, JTLKLM,METEORALL......Minykelly, Wei Li Wonka....omg......I can't remember ALL of the booths that we shopped at....I got some Gundam arts too.....It was fun. It's been a while since I went to these conventions.

I might go again for more conventions throughout the year......we'll see ^_^

P.S. : We also did some shopping at the mall...... 😁

there are a lot of things in this world that i disagree with....

 ...there are also a lot of things that I agree with.....

Not that my opinion or POV matters coz I am just a rando in the system. I am aware that just like everyone else, I too am collateral. 

I just sometimes wish that things were more efficient. In many ways. But there is corruption. I the system. In humans. Human error. Shit like that.

I grew up in a household that made me believe that women were constantly being oppressed and that we need to "equip" ourselves before getting into shit like relationship and stuff. None of those were ever true. I was stuck with some women who are just fucked up. They have their own problems and weren't able to compartmentalize it and throws their shit around. 

Well, an example of it all is how they think we should have a "relationship" the moment we get into secondary school. It wasn't an idea that sat well with me. I had shit to deal with. Puberty. Hormones. Grades. Getting a boyfriend was definitely NOT on my priority list. Also, I was never a people person. I like my own time. I like doing things on my own without having to confirm or reconfirm with other people who can't keep track of time.

And then, I was told that as women, we had to "prepare" certain things before marriage. I am not talking about physical appearances. It was more on like the financial aspect of things. And then, the same people who kept pestering me about all this shit on having a job and securing finances weren't even working to begin with. Then, I began to wonder why the hell was I constantly being pushed to work and earn when my husband said it was fine if I didn't wanna work coz we're good.

So, there's the whole "you have to work and contribute to your family" bullshit alongside the whole "you gotta take care and raise your kids coz you're a woman" bullshit. I do not oppose either of these ideas. I just think it is strange coming from someone who never worked and constantly pushing me to work and then, they'd ask for money from me.....and....the fact that I don't have a problem with my husband and they seem to have a problem with it.....

It's very confusing but this is the shit I keep having to explain and re-explain everytime someone brings up the whole "why are you not in contact with your family". I have shit normal people don't deal with and I have a POV unlike the taboo. 

This is has a lot more to it....especially now that Yusuf is old enough to want to know and understand a lot of things, our conversations are usually very honest but very uncommon to the society. He understands it and he was asking why I was treated as such when I was growing up. 

*sigh* 

I always wanna keep it a 100 with my kids coz I grew up in a household where shit was constantly getting swept under the rug when trying to keep up with the Joneses.

Do you ever wanted to do a million and one things all at once?

 And then, you don't have enough time in a day or enough energy in a day to do it all.....That's kinda me right now. I am constantly thinking about new things and new ways and new whatever to create or write or make. It's driving me crazy. I need sleep. And I am not getting enough of it. It's not healthy and I finally got my ass to a hair salon today to get a haircut after almost 2 years of not cutting my hair. I was just....not giving myself the time to get a haircut. 

Also, I tried out this hairspa thingy the other day. I need to commit to getting it done at least once a month. It's not like that Balinese spa I love so much in Cyberjaya but it's hair treatment and relaxation. I miss it. And today, the hair stylist pointed out that I haven't been there in a long while and that I need to get some vitamins added into my daily routine to keep my hair and scalp healthy. Good idea. I'll do that if I can remember to do it when I get around to doing it.

At the back of my mind right now is.....should I get a costume for the upcoming cosplay event I am going with the kids or should I just show up as myself? I found a shop that sells cosplay contact lenses and I LURVE them all!!! But.....I can't just show up with contacts with no context.....right? I had always loved Enma Ai but......I don't think I have enough time to come up with a costume......

Damn!
