AnimeNext - my first anime con!

Today is the first day of the three-day anime convention in NJ - AnimeNext.
And it's my first anime con!!!! I'm so excited, I'm going to use even more exclamation points than I normally do!!!

Along with some great guests, AnimeNext has some really fun panels and workshops to check out! To be honest, I'm a little overwhelmed by all the awesome things on the schedule!!

I'm not cosplaying, but I've decided to do my hair in 'dangos' like Sailor Moon! My hair is a lot shorter now (I chopped off 12 inches and donated it to Locks of Love) so my buns won't be quite as bun-y as hers... Get it bun-y as in Bunny as in Usagi-chan's name in the North American version of the manga?! (okay, enough groaning, I'll lay off the bad puns) I might even rock some cat ears in the interest of looking adorable!

So as a newbie to cons, does anyone have any tips? What was your favorite con moment? Are you going to any cons this year?
