    Trixia Salonga

    Hi! I'm Trixia and welcome to my slice of life. I'm not your average blogger, I'm a hybrid of multi-dimensional shoujo, a rare breed of legal loli and a unique original producer of ideas and inspiration. My path goes on the other side of the road which is less traveled, where thrill and excitement rests. This blog holds my inner thoughts, experiences, opinions and out-of-the-ordinary theories which I keep as a journal of my life's highlights.

    Hello! 

    It's been a while since I made my last Original Character, I think the last one was Meaw 2.0 and she is filled of sweetness all over, this time I created a draft artwork for a new original character named ICE LOLLY. 

    Pardon me for the undone artwork, I will still have to polish it, I did it in the span of 45 minutes that I have for free time, I will still have more modifications.

    When the artwork was done I got into sewing immediately and I found scraps of cloth on my sewing studio, I couldn't stop making it. 

    ICE LOLLY's top is made of super white Japanese Yukata, as I said there will be more modifications, so I am looking forward for future formats. The skirt is inspired by brushed painted flowers and it is pleated much like how a japanese skirt looks like. 

    The reason why I made ICE LOLLY is because I wanted to eventually make her as my everyday streaming look. The whole outfit has a touch of elegance yet comfortable for hot season because it is always summer in the Philippines even during typhoon season.

    I plan to use this as my daily "cosplay streamer uniform". Much like my streamer uniform for hatsune miku pink hoodie, this time it would be more breezy. Hopefully, i get a more cotton fabric soon if time allows that I could visit fabric store *cross fingers cause its even tough to go to market since time is constrained. 

    More adjustments and modifications will probably be done on the sleeves and skirt area as I needed to finish the edges, I do that mostly on free time so please excuse that I was not able to show you a finished look.

    Hope you like my newest cosplay and watch my live stream at my LIVE tab here at my website.

    When the opportunity came by my fingertips, it gave me a heart attack. Literally, I do not mean to exaggerate but when Ms. Yume posted a once in a lifetime opp for cosplaying Sailormoon, I thought my heart beat stops. The best thing about it is that she was looking for Sailormoon cosplayers with the same height as the characters and I am thankful she did accept me.

    Before the shoot, I had a gig of taking yoga classes and this was sponsored, I was definitely hesitant to try it because I am not at all flexible and being a couch potato for years weakened my state, yet, my sense of adventure always wins. I took a grueling weeks course in yoga and I had fevers and muscle pain before and the day of the shoot. I felt that some muscle even is torn and my thoughts of canceling the shoot are lingering but it is not happening on my watch.

    Sailormoon's height of 4 feet and  11 inches is my exact stats. Moreover, my normal ectomorph body retained and been maintained for years have long been ready to put the lifelong dream to put her dress on. I was surprised to see that the Photoshoot was for a charity too which is perfect as it could help children, so we bought school materials and donated it to them.

    I have arrived at 9:00 am in UST, too early for the 2 pm call time for the costume. I had attended on hosting early at 5:00 am and when we arrived at the school, there was a group to shoot earlier than us and they utilized the whole university for the shoot. We had a short time for the photo shoot, but I was glad that I finally got the chance to put on her sailor costume. It needs a few adjustments since I am really petite and some including the arm stockings and belly area were really loose, temporarily folded them while taking shots.

    BTW, The hair accessory was forgotten.

    My photographer, as usual, demanded the most exquisite poses that can tear my ligaments and muscles, I was even put on top of a high cemented barricade to capture a concept and I felt dizzy that I thought I was going to fall, but when he hasn't got the shot that he wanted he let me rest and continued on until I got the shot. I am not frightened of heights but the combination of hypoglycemia, gastritis,  muscle pain, migraine, and heat all combined fought against my motivation to continue.

    That was not the end though. I was given instructions to pose her moon tiara action to the hyperextension of my arm wing and legs and pain is grueling from yoga to the exercises, I would understand if my face no longer looks beautiful since I am already at the pain.



     The photoshoot time was short and everyone felt that we lacked the time yet for me, this moment was well spent and productive, after all, I gave every effort I had and held on to my dreams despite my conditions. The best thing about this? I even had a streaming schedule at Tamago later but since everyone was warm and friendly, I never felt any pain at all.



    I always remembered how Sailormoon endured all the hardships from the series and kept that as my main source of motivation because I know that my efforts can reach dreamers and inspire them from all over the world to continue with their passion.



    I am no longer as strong as I used to be, but my dreams have always become the unlimited motivation/inspiration to everything I do, that is why like Sailormoon, I want to protect everyone's dreams, pure heart, and star seed.



    It took me a while to edit the shots though, I first got inspired with the moon tiara action scene, this had accidentally opened on my streaming time, which became like a sneak peek for my viewers. It felt that I was not the one editing the photo because when I was doing the editing, all were done very swiftly and the materials for the composition, composition itself emerged without my brainstorming. I freaked out after it was done because I usually have a hard time composing a picture, I am assuming she (Sailormoon) is guiding me.



    Little by little the colors had started to become one with my poses and that blown me to get captured with finishing the final composite. I never had this goosebump in creating a photo masterpiece before and it was worthwhile.



    I will continue on with a few projects I have lined it, I might post them again without prior notice so, don't forget to sign in my newsletter below so you can get updates.

    Till next time again ;)

    A few days ago I was awaken by a simple reminder of Meaw cosplay's 3 year anniversary. It was such an unforgettable convention at 8th Philippine cosplay where everyone just enjoyed and performed their talents. Since this memory brought me smiling everytime I see it, I have done a quick simple Erina Nakiri cosplay from Shokugeki No Soma, this is done to thank everyone for all their support. 

    I am a fan of Shokugeki no Soma especially Ms. Nakiri.

    I uploaded the video thru my facebook page.

    The dress is from Season 4 Episode 1 which I have been waiting for so long to watch and now I can't wait to see the next episode. 

    For all my supporters, thank you very much for encouragements, I love you all so much. :)

    They say that second-time is the sweetest, proven true with my 2nd part-time job as Product Ambassadress for Cospray held at Crowne Plaza Hotel for Dance like a rockstar Easter event special. By the way, if you haven't seen the videos, I have compiled them on my youtube page.




    Attire:

    Rockstar Style inspired 

    Black Fiddler cap

    Long sleeved purple and white star print

    Black skirt 

    Pink boots

    Star necklace and dangling earrings for accessories


    Makeup:

    Loreal True Match Liquid Foundation and compact powder

    Loreal Colour Riche lipstick Nature's Blush
    Naked eyebrow pencil 003

    LA girl pro conceal HD concealer Classic Ivory

    Ashley Pro Setting Spray



    What happened at the part-time job.....



    EDSA had no traffic since it's Easter Sunday and most people went home to their own provinces. I, on the other hand, had no province but just Metro Manila, I enjoy travel the best on this times, because the road traffic is like as if I'm in the provinces. We got there 3 hours before the time in and met with our contact person.





    It was my first time to visit Crowne Plaza and my excitement is the same as the kids on Easter Egg Hunt, we had a designated stall and seats for the promotion of the products and I was glad to meet a new cosplayer friend, Ms. Geneva.




    The shift hasn't started yet but so many kids lined up to try the product already, a free trial was done to each kid wanting to get an edgy color for their hair.




    I had brought my stencil and did this, gold was the best for the black hair because the color pops.





    I explored further in the hotel where I found a main hall for the event and damn it was bigger than I thought and fancier.



    What I enjoyed most is the photobooth and gone 2 times before and after the shift.

    Mascots visit the hall from time to time and kids loved to take pictures with them.


    The shift is 1:00-3:00 pm and we cleaned up after. I enjoyed the day of my odd-job, it was truly rewarding as we discovered so many important things that I would want to show you soon....





    Hope you all enjoy reading and don't forget to follow for future posts :)
    . Monday, December 18, 2017 .

    When I got accepted to join in a meeting for a odd-job, we 're given instructions to meet-up at Burger King Welcome Rotonda. It was for an orientation and instructions on what we're going to do. I chose Robinsons Magnolia because it was nearer than the rest of the options.

    We were picked up in a van, wer're unaware that we will be heading to their nearby office. At the Office, I was introduced to a product I would be promoting, Cospray.

    The first question " Do you know what this is?" I was asked. "yes" I replied. Then Mr. Voltaire, was curious why I knew the product and I told him that his company sent it to me to review, as a blogger.

    They were kinda confused and asked if I really am a cosplayer too.

    Anyways, A short intro and info were given on how to sell the product with highlights to its benefits.

    The day of 16th December, We proceeded to Robinsons Magnolia which the manager there had no clue we were sent in.
    She demanded an email from the company first.

    Stencil I made for hair pattern sample definitely caught people's attention and closed the deal.

    That's how I got transferred to Trinoma, I met Ms. Shiela who courteously greeted us to join her to sell. We had a great time together promoting the product.

    Surprisingly, many people got curious about what we are selling and bought their pairs.

    I chuckled at a boy who told me he's got all the colors, gotta catch them all I see.

    As the time starts to end, we closed the shop and went home.

    No, not really, it took us 2 hours to go home because there was an endless line to the transportation and I could not even find a seat anywhere because it seems as if all people visited the mall in holidays so it felt like I had extended shift. Yup, my legs felt like their going to be cut off from my torso.

    Nevertheless, everything was wonderful I even saw 2 celebrities rushing to get somewhere.

    Haha.

    Well,
    So wait for my cospray blog, I'll be creating looks for this spray, yey!

    November 19, 2017 3:00 pm --- We we're invited to attend DoraemonPH at SM Mall of Asia for an exciting event to meet Doraemon and friends. I decided to make an original character named Meaw 2.0 for the event. We took the MRT and Jeep from around 12:00 pm and arrived at exactly 3:00pm on the event place, yes the LRT had stops and jeepney waited for ten years before we got into the venue. 




    I used a pastel pink Jacket with my pastel boots and black socks to achieve a cuter version of the Meaw 2.0.

    My contact lens is EOS which I finally was able to acquire from Shopee. Here I was sipping water from my Bling Bling cup brought from Hypermarket, completely unspillable.

    A final look before heading out. 


    We look for the contact person once arrived and also had selfies on the Christmas Tree.


    I immediately went up the stage to join the picture taking of Doraemon and friends!
    The passage way to the event is a cute graffiti of Doraemon. 


    An option to buy the Doraemon goodies is on the side. 
    This is a mini bus where you can snap a picture of Doraemon's room. 
    Ahhh. the main entrance is filled with Christmas feel. 

    We were given starbucks coffee and bread stub as a meal.
