There were a LOT of last minute changes before we set out for our trip Friday morning. My boyfriend dumped me two days before the con, so he didn't go, and I had to find someone who would use his ticket in about 30 hours. The entire day before the con I was miserable and stressed. But I was lucky I found a friend who could make it with such little notice.

,

, Brittany and Laura all met at my house around 8:30 and we were on the road at nine. We did not get home until about 5:30 Sunday night. This weekend was so much fun, a lot more fun then I thought it was going to be (because of the circumstances). I usually go to a con with a large group of people, like my anime club, but with just the five of us, it was a lot of fun. So much less drama.
I might put up some pictures from the con. They aren't very good or high quality, but some of the cosplayers were AMAZING! I just need to find my camera cord so I can upload them. Some of my favorites were Prince from Katamari, GLaDOS from Portal (SUPER creative little prop that talked!), a certain Chell from Portal that made her own long fall boots and portal gun, my friend's Pikachu cosplay, Onion Knight from Dissidia, Cloud from FFVII: Advent Children, a Scott Pilgrim that carried an ACTUAL bass with him and played a few cords for us all =], Kanta from Desert Punk, Toothless from How to Train Your Dragon, this Iron Man (his costume lit up!), and this Sailor Moon and Chibi Moon that were walking around on Friday. This Chibi Moon looked like she was about seven or eight years old! Soooooo cuuuuute! I wish I got a picture. =[
Some guests that I caught a glimpse of (mostly because I already have seen them or because I didn't care too much to see them) included Vic Mignogna, Yu Kimura (the Ambassador of Kawaii--legit says this in the program, and has a face to match)(and I got a hug from her

), Robert Axelrod, Leah Clark, Trina Nishimura, Michele Knotz, Bill Rogers, and Tom Wayland.
I really sort of wish this weekend didn't end. Now I'm home, exhausted, with reality setting back in. All the stress of life will be back in place tomorrow, with work and various other things. Can I get a time machine please? =/
P.S. Quick question: Is it creepy to get your ex-boyfriend a birthday present just a few days after he breaks up with you? Nick's birthday is next Sunday and I picked him up a Zelda wallet at the con. I don't know... I don't want to be that girl that seems desperate to get her ex- back but I don't want to just... NOT get him something.
