Q&A video. :)

What with that habit of mine to put "s" to the end of words or names, even those that aren't plural XDD.???


Anyway , I forgot a few points  in the video because I was too focused on trying to speak English which is not an easy exercise for my mushy brain  XD

Here are some additions to my replies :

Geekdings, concerning failure in cosplay : I usually know I won't succeed making a costume in one go and I don't mind starting over and over until I get the result I'm looking for ^^.( And I suck at sewing, like big time ! So I always have to find new tricks to get the final result I'm looking for :)

Regarding 3D  Printing , I meant , for me it's not rewarding when I order a finished item. Some people actually do the modeling for their 3D objects , some other just then get them printed, and still have a lot of work to do on them.I'm just not a big fan of the idea of buying a finished item, I like to have a certain level of work or customisation to do on bought parts. It's not rewarding for me to buy a completed item because it's my vison of cosplay. But it doesn't make wearing a costume less fun :) and if you like to buy a ready to wear cosplay, do it! I have no right to judge what makes cosplay a real cosplay. This was just my personal feeling about it :)

David : I forgot something very important ! One of the principal activity I want to do when I feel  better is to travel ! I missed traveling so much during these past 2 years and also going for a walk in the mountains, near the sea, going into forests, I miss nature ! I miss walking around. I love nature !

I started walking back around my city lately but I pushed myself a bit too hard this week and now I'm too tired to even move from my bed. Argh !! I' can't wait to be fully operational and not having to go through phases where my body can't move before it gets strength again.


Richard  McConnel :  I didn't mean to sound full of myself by saying "I don't feel anything special at conventions" when people recognize me. Actually, in France, a lot of cosplayers know each others because it's a small community, we are just friends or acquaintances. It's not the same of course when attending a convention outside my country where I don't know anybody ^^.... and it's always appreciable and rewarding when someone recognize you^^ But I guess after 2 years of absence this would not happen if I ever were to go to a foreign convention XD


And.....Why do I sound like Sonia Segreto when I'm talking? (an Italien cosplayer who attended the first WCS with me)

Thank you for watching and not getting bored !

Presque 23 minutes de vidéo en Anglais, où je comprends tout ! 🙏🏻 Grâce a toi je me sens parfaitement bilingue ! Et ça n’a pas de prix 😁 Tu as fait monter mon estime de moi même de 10 points 😂

I Guess I have to thank my parents for that. Even though my mom had for a long period, issues understanding that it's not because I look younger and act like a child that I am a indeed a child with a 3 years old reasoning. But my father has always been different too and never felt like he fitted anywhere. So he really never discouraged me from being me , at the contrary I'd say. And opposite to them, I found pretty quickly people who I felt good being myself with:) ( thanks cosplay ^^) And now my mom has got it too and both of them embrace the fact their daughter is not really like their friend's other kids and never will ( friends who always have a judgement because they don't understand but I couldn't care less XD). I believe my parents are even proud of it now ^^,,, Like you say , liking yourself is not something that easy and I believe many people dont like themselves because they were taught never listening to their inner self and always listen to judgment . It asks time to accept to let go. Even though I'm now chronically ill , I have never accepted myself more . I don't like to be ill and I'm fighting for a better future but being ill brought me so much understanding about myself and a lot of other stuff that I believe it was necessary for whatever future is waiting ahead of me :)

C'est parce que c'est quelque chose qui me demande beaucoup d'énergie de m'adresser à un auditeur invisible.. Il y a encore quelques mois , au bout de 5min de blabla devant une caméra et j'avais la tête sens dessus dessous et je faisais un malaise. La j'ai tenu plutôt longtemps malgré la nervosité. Mais par contre depuis avant hier du coup, je suis épuisée XD. si ma santé continue comme ça de tte manière je pourrais en faire de plus en plus.

Beaucoup trop cute cette vidéo. Ca faisait longtemps que j'avais pas vue une video de toi. Et j'ai pas tres bien compris de quel personnage tu parlais dans Solo (fourure, casque, armure tribal)?

Keep not giving a damn what other people think! Liking yourself is a blessing many people never get to have.

You know what ?! I just happened to remember that !! I see flashes of you guys talking to me and that particular sentence XDD. It was well hidden in a part of my brain but now I got the memory back XDD

I'll be a 90 years old kid someday :)

It happened to me in the past but not because I gave up, but because I changed my mind. I didn't want to make the costume anymore XD. Last time "I failed" a part of a costume was when I posted the video of my previous Tinkerbell wings; I already knew I was going to remake them because i didn't like the result . I even made fun of it XD

And please never ever grow up. Life is boring when you don't keep a bit of that inner child in your soul.

With failure I didn't mean like giving up totally on the project. A lot of cosplayers will only show the finished result on social media and never talk about all the things that went wrong or how often they had to try and make this or that for the cosplay :)

You have the power to make me smile - lots - and your English is a whole lot better than my French - I've proved that by blowing my house up, very fond memory of meeting you in London in 2015. Thank you so much for putting this video together, I hope you did not suffer too much after your efforts.
