Reiko just wanted me to let everyone know she is going to try to close this contest the weekend of July 16th. She has been out of the country and has not had a lot of time on the comp but will be returning then <3 hope everyone is well!
Hello everyone! <3 I'm so sorry for the huge delay with closing up this contest! ;3;
Long story short, I got back from my month-long trip last week Thursday, but I'm suffering from the worst jet lag I've experienced in a long time. My sleep schedule is really messed up, and I'm having a hard time staying focused and keeping myself from feeling anxious now that I'm "back to reality." So I'm trying to get myself back to the right headspace.
Thank you so much for everyone's patience!!! ;3; A few people have messaged/commented me to let me know about their slots/raffle entries--but no worries because it's all here on this thread (which was moved to the Giveaway forum so that it wouldn't disappear with the Masquerade forum), and I still have everyone's pings that I haven't gone through yet. I'll try my best to finalize slots/raffle entries when I'm feeling all alright, and I still fully intend to close up this contest! (I'll also be adding a few more winners to each raffle to make up for the delay!)
Thank you to for posting an update for me above! 💜 Sadly, although I intended to close this contest once I got back from my trip, the jet lag hasn't made it possible. ;_; Nonetheless, I appreciate your help, lovely!!! <3
And thank you to as well for actually rounding up all the info for slots and raffle entries! :o That was incredibly sweet of you to do, and I'll definitely be using your work to make sure I'm not missing any slots and raffle entries. Thank you again for your time and effort!!! <3
[edit]UPDATE: Okay, so...I just tested positive for COVID, aaaahhhhh T_T Half surprised, but also half not surprised because I came back from traveling last week Thursday (and you no longer need to test at all when flying back to the U.S.), and it's typically recommended to test 5-7 days after coming back from traveling, so I'm guessing I caught it while on the plane. DX (My family has tested themselves as well, and everyone is negative, so didn't catch it from them) So anyway, I guess it's not just jet lag messing up my sleep and focus then ;_;
Oh just read the edited post. Please, be safe and get well soon <3

I hope you get to feeling better soon hun Im so sorry your sick <3
Feel better soon! D:
I wasn't worried about the contest, I was genuinely more concerned on if you were okay given you just up and poofed. Thank you for the update! I sincerely hope you feel better as quickly as possible!
Hello everyone! Long time no see! ;3;
I'm so sorry again for the huge delay in announcing the winners of my Masquerade event. :( Thank you so much for your patience and understanding! And thank you to those who sent well wishes! <3 I'm about 90% recovered from my bout with COVID, but still have a kind of tickle in my throat, so sometimes I feel the need to clear my throat or cough to clear it up. But otherwise, no major symptoms have lingered. 🙏
For those who haven't received invites for their slots yet: I'll be sending them out today! If you need more than a week to redeem your invite(s), please let me know, and I'd be happy to extend as needed! Or, if you are no longer interested in your slot(s), please let me know, and I'd be happy to let you exchange it for a slot request on a future event exclusive item! (So for example, if you requested one slot for this event but no longer want the slot, then you can use the slot request on a future event exclusive item without having to meet the participation requirements. Hopefully that makes sense...! Please feel free to ping/comment/sMail me for more details.)
At last, let's move onto our raffle winners!!! As mentioned in my previous post, I increased the number of winners for each raffle. So now, there are 16 winners for Raffle 1, and 6 winners for Raffle 2.

Congratulations to all the winners! Thank you so much for hosting this contest! ❤
And most importantly, I'm so glad to hear that you're feeling better! Wishing you a FULL recovery soon! Take good care~ sending well wishes~ ❤
Wow, the wait was well worth it! I can't believe I won twice. Thank you very much! Also apologies for not replying earlier, we're having holidays at the moment, so the kids are at home and believe it or not, this time of the year is always super busy. I honestly rather go to work, that's how I relax these days. I promise to get back to you about the recolour as soon as I can, but I may ask you for some further explaination. I've never been in the lucky postition to choose colours of items and I don't really know what I'm supposed to do now to be honest. Glad to hear that you are recovering from Covid. I was dealing with short breath and tiredness for several weeks after the infection too, so I hope you're fully recovered soon.

No worries! Please enjoy the holidays with your family! <3 And please feel free to get back to me about your recolor choice whenever you're ready. No rush at all! :) When you're ready, you can reply back to me sMail, and we can talk more in detail about how you can make your recolor choice. :D (Or if you prefer to discuss it via comments, that's fine with me, too!)
And thank you for the well wishes, too! <3 The last symptoms I have that have been taking some time to go away are a scratchy throat and lingering cough. DX But I'm definitely getting better, albeit little by little. :3
