So the mall tour was shit. I'm really not surprised at all, and had prepared myself mentally for the worst. It was actually even worse than I was expecting it to be: absolutely NO merch, the only freebie I got was a foam Love Ball, and the demo (I'm pretty sure this is all the demos though) was awful and short. But seriously. All we had was the demo, a coloring station, and face painting (only Pikachu or Victini). What really pissed me off was after the demo, the guy was like "you can get your face painted over here!" and gestured toward the person, and I was like hey, may as well milk what little I have, right? So I waited until the lady was done with that girl, like, 10, 15 minutes? Only to have a really awkward exchange where there was a line and no one told me this, and I thought I was waiting that whole time to be next in line. Like, you think someone would have told me? I wasn't just standing there watching her paint! So I left all pissed about that, and the line was way too long for me to give a shit anymore.
But, as we were leaving this giant Pikachu came out of nowhere, and we got a family picture with it, and that sort of made up for everything. We haven't gotten a family picture in a long time, and we didn't notice until after that dad was grabbing Pikachu's ear, LOLLLL. Then we made the trip out to Metrotown into a day, which was also nice because we rarely go out as a whole family for anything more than a normal trip to the mall.
Eeggghhh, this is my first time doing the bidding for a GA, and it's making me sick to my stomach. But I took this on! I can deal. This is my lot, though. ;___; And someone is giving some pretty fierce competition. I'm afraid that when I put in our max bid that price is just gonna jump up higher like it keeps going. Ughghghhhhlfskkfllksdl blerghhh. Looks like an SMJ user, too. Fuck you, buddy. 8( I sincerely hope it's not just someone being an ass and trying to raise it to our max bid :\. I swear to god that happens more often than people realize. A couple of Ebay GA totals have seemed really fishy to me... like that one lot that ended at over $600. At least the lady gave a discount, haha.
Oh god feel sick lolllllll wish me luck ;__; I don't want to pay much more than $40 for Roselia, waaaah. Maybe $60-70.
