Losing Interest

        It happens. You find something you like and stick with it for a long time. Sometimes you can just get tired of it and grow out of it. Sometimes its a phase or a one time thing and that's okay too. Cosplaying just isn't for everybody. And sometimes life forces you to pause what you love to do because life doesn't like to make you happy. You punch life right in the face.

        There was a time I had to not cosplay or go to a con because school and life came first. It wasn't the best feeling especially when your friends are planning their next outfit and gather the materials for the props. It wasn't the best feeling. The tips we would give each other and overall helping each other making the costume.Just knowing the feeling of not being able to go the a con that you and your friends were planning on attending is a bit hurtful once you think about it. It's never a satisfying emotion knowing that your friends may be doing something fun without. But you shouldn't stop a friend from doing what they love just because you can't at the moment,that wouldn't be fair and that wouldn't make you a good friend.

      But one things about this hobby That's its pretty much like any other hobbies you can always pick it back up and try again. You can save and invest into it later until you are ready to get back in it. It's never too late; both for the young and old,it's for everyone.
