/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Con is in 3 days and I got the flu, I'll still go if I don't heal but I won't wear the cosplay that I finished two months ago. I was actually really looking forward to it but some things came up recently:

>First con with childhood friend because all this time we somehow didn't know that the other also likes anime. While talking about con he didn't know that I cosplay and he (jokingly?) said that he's going to be my personal photographer and he helped with my costume too.
>Parents are visiting and this will be the first time they see me cosplaying.
>Meeting a friend from college there and she's not a cosplayer either.

I was excited but as the date comes closer I feel really nervous, I'm actually relieved if I stay sick and have an excuse to not cosplay now.

Sorry that I sound like whining but I'm a bag of mixed feelings rn.
