I took this picture during the summer of 2010, probably in May, as it was definitely before Anime Expo that year. At the time, I genuinely thought I was going to be moving away soon, so I was deliberately trying to attend as many events and make as many precious memories as I possibly could.
Here, I'm posing with the gothic girl after we had just come back from swimming in the ocean. I vividly remember the water being freezing cold, but the day overall was so much fun and completely enjoyable, just chilling with other cosplayers. It's a great snapshot of those last, carefree moments.
