So better late than never to see this message LOL since I'll be out of country before convention, FB groups are easier to check :) And I have requested to join so we can chat it up on there too. I'm getting SUPER excited.

 

I have my scrub bottoms and lab coat for Friday's party (working on a shirt in right color) and picking out something for Vegas night... I wish my cousin was coming cause she's so amazing at face makeup, I could do a female goth wraith but unfortunately it might be a "typical Vegas party girl" but more than likely, it might be me in what I wore last time I was actually in Vegas!

Well I'll see you on the FB page then! I'm only theming it up for the Friday - I wasn't sure what to do for the vegas one, so in the end I just decided to wear a nice dress and some shoes that I'll fall over in! I wish I could do costume make up, but I can't even do normal make-up! Seriously, eyeliner takes me about an hour to put on. Really looking forward to this, only 8 more days!
