Well my spring break is over, and I have to say it was pretty good. Basically screwed around till wednesday, when I picked up Mike (friend from Tampa, for you follow digipwners) from the airport. Him and I had then went to downtown Seattle for Sakura-con. I actually did my first cosplay too! Check it out...
I can't believe that there was another person that cosplayed as my character, since he was a bit of a vague one, but ah well. This is the picture of the character I'm referencing.
Next time, I want to cosplay as Guts from Berserk......
However I would really like to try to cosplay as Guts in his Berserker mode.
That would be rediculously awesome. Ohhh...I really wish that I was good at arts and crafts. *tears*
Well anywho, for those of you wondering, my standup at the convention went awesomely. I'll explain the story in full. Before the panel, I was scared shitless, rereading what material I had every ten seconds....even went to the bathroom to release the stress. The show was to run a half-hour, and I wasn't sure I could last. Well I sat down in the audience acting as an audience member, and waited in the empty room, asking people as they came in who was the guy that was gonna do the panel. Nobody said anything, except for one guy. He actually said that this guy was very good, and that he saw me at a New York convention. Heh heh, this was the first time doing it! Anyways.About a minute after 11, I got up from the audience, and surprised a couple of people, heh heh. So I went up and did my material. Awesomely enough, it was a complete success! About twenty-thirty people showed up and laughed a lot! If I were to give a rating between how well the show came out, I'd give it a 7.5/10. In the sense that I was pretty funny, but my n00bin3ss was quite obvious. Throughout the whole show, I forgot the material, so I basically read out the material from a handy reference paper. After twenty minutes, I ran outta material :( but I asked people to come up and do a little stand-up of their own. The first guy was pretty good. In fact, he was quite hilarious! But the next guy, what a stinker. He just ranted on and on, basically we left with a bit of "who cares". The last one, a girl, was amusing, but she talked way too fast, and had no comedic timing. In the end, I'd say it was an awesome event, and I want to do it again next year. Next time I'm sure I'll have more people come by, and even more material.
Well by the end of the weekend, I have way less money, more memories of awesomeness, and...I don't know what to say. I'm sorry for the lack of updating, but whatever. I'll update with more pics later.
