Today we went for a Blythe meet with a few other people and together we attended the Singapore Toy & Comic Convention 2008. All in all, it wasn't too bad although we had trouble finding out who was who in the beginning, cause we were supposed to 'congregate' at the staircase leading to Raffles City just outside City Hall MRT. It was pretty weird at first, addressing people by their usernames(Hey, SurrealDream, where do you want to go for lunch?) but we gradually remembered their names. So off we went~a noisy, awkward, hyper bunch headed for Suntec. The queue was...majestic. It reached the end of the level-literally.

Blythe bouquet. We were getting bored while queuing for entry, so we just whipped out our cameras and Blythes and snapped away. The one on the extreme left belongs to Evolna, another TIB member.

A horribly dark picture of Christina the bride.

Rather honoured to see her there, y'know. She hasn't even been released.

I never knew Miss A(the very first anniversary doll) had such 'props' till today.

Eleanor or Last Kiss? You decide.

MINE! Art Attack!~

Oooh. I had a very hard time taking this picture cause they were displayed really high up and I had to tiptoe amongst the jostling crowd. Bloody hell. That's why it's a tad blur. Youtsuzu doesn't look as promising as I thought though; she looks a little shocked in the front.

I just thought they looked cute. :D

God-knows-whose hand in front of a dog-faced Byul, going to be released in September, according to Madison's mum, Margaret. Her lips look SQUASHED.

MINEEEEEEEE! <3 src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3052/2617825533_2a4cc14e2e.jpg" alt="DSC04186" height="500" width="375">
The registration counter for the 25 lucky winners of Dollzinc's supremely fair and just competition. It's a very posh tea party of sorts. Esther and I tried to peep inside but one idiotic guy came to close the door when he saw us lingering outside. Damn! And we were planning to crash the party!

People who came for the Blythe meet. DHeartzPopcorn and her friend(s) are absent though.

Those two on the left belong to Vanitha(the crazy Indian lady in orange above). The Saffy on the extreme right belongs to Rose Joelyn.

More Blythes from Evolna(girl in Souseiseki-green vest) and breeze(crazy orange lady)!
After we got bored of the convention we went to find the other Blythe people cause we lost them along the way. Turns out they were outside the Blythe Tea Party place and taking pictures of Blythes and the Domino Effect. A while later, the mean woman from Dollzinc showed up and someone complimented her blue-and-white-print cotton dress that looked like it came from Far East Plaza. Esther tried to suck up to her so we could get entry to the stupid tea party by saying: Hello Auntie! You have nice shoes. Wah, LV! I wanted to say I just bought a pair of shoes like that from Chinatown yesterday but didn't want to foil Esther's plans. As usual, the auntie ignored us like we were insects or frogs, whichever. Anyway, one of the people(geraldine_angel) who came for the meet knew the Auntie and they chatted for awhile while we went to eat.
We had a very late lunch at Swensens and the total bill was purse-blowing, but considering that there were about 9 of us, it wasn't that much of a surprise. The convention was very crowded but quite fun cause we met alot of celebrities and all! I even managed to get a picture of ___'s butt! :P And Esther took a picture with Jon Leong and I took a picture with tokidoki man, Simone Legno. He was quite nice and obliging in person! We wanted to take pictures with the people cosplaying as Star Wars but they kept daoing us so Esther and I pulled at their capes and wanted to smack their butts. Obviously we ran away after that little stunt.
All in all, we had a great day and we hope to go there next year!
