The Five-Minute Con Report

Making this quick because I have... other things I should be writing at the moment. This year's ACen was a lot less eventful than last year's, mainly because I didn't plan out every hour of every day and just sort of winged the whole thing. So to sum it all up:

On Friday, I wandered around the Dealer's Room for a while and bought a Naruto necklace for my Narutard of a little cousin; went to the Hyatt to look for a panel (where the panelists basically just made fun of various anime... and it was probably the best panel I attended the whole weekend xD); went back to the Dealer's Room because apparently that's where the panel room was located for some reason; went to the Hyatt in search of the GothiLoli fashion show; found out the show was in a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT HOTEL that I now had to walk to; wandered around said hotel with a group of gothy people who were just as lost as I was; finally found the show which ended up lasting less than half an hour (last year's show was a lot better ._.); went back to the Hyatt; watched Code Geass for the first time and found out that it's better to go into that anime expecting to hate it and come out not hating it.

On Saturday, I dashed off to the Psych & Anime panel (which was miraculously located at the Hyatt and ended up not being all that great); wandered around the Dealer's Room some more; bought something for a friend who couldn't attend ACen and something else for Laur (you spoiled whore DD: J/K I♥U); went to the Ethics of Death Note panel (full of lulz & people thinking Light is srs business); met up with Katana (who kept making DBSK fangirl impressions of me JERK DD:) & friends (who were a lot nicer :P), Schultzie (who has had way more interesting con experiences than me), and Fasteriskhead (who I swear makes an almost-literal xD face when he laughs & facepalms IRL); forgot that the Masquerade required tickets & arrived at the ticket booth too late to get one; watched AMVs for a while; loitered around the Masquerade area at the start of the show; found a girl who was selling her ticket for ten bucks; was like, "Well shit, this is super messed up and they'll probably let ticketless people in eventually... but money is meant to be wasted SO OK HERE YOU GO"; saw some realllllly great costumes & skits including one skit that used DBSK's Balloons song as background music for a bit :DDDDD; randomly watched Cowboy Bebop until my sister came to pick me up.

On Sunday, I watched Densha Otoko (which is kind of like a cross between Lars and the Real Girl & Ah! My Goddess... interestingly enough); belatedly realized that the dude who plays the hikikomori character is Eita; watched AMVs for two hours (they're a really good time waster o-o); wandered around for a while before going home.

So yeah. Off to the writing of mysterious things. 8D
