Fanime #6
THATS A LOT OF $50 FOR A WEEKEND IN SAN JOSE. AND THEN SOME.
Just got back from Fanime '08. Great shit this year. I had fun. Lots of fun. Aside from being with Shin as always, I met up with some RO friends, one coming in from Vegas to see us all. <3 HARDCORE LOVE SUICIDE GATHERING POW. :>
My cosplay was umm... "showy" this year. ...Very showy. I don't know the word. I was this: http://download.minitokyo.net/194212/ But just barely. Parts of it fell to pieces before and after I wore it. It was embarrassing to tell people what I was from... and it still is. .__. I wore a sarong to cover myself up every once in a while, and I'm really glad I brought that. My friend Kirawr had it pretty bad as Rikku too. But we were cute. We're always cute. We got stares. And our pictures taken a lot. Sometimes unknowingly. :( But we also had 4 guy bodyguards that almost didn't know how to do it. /pif
We bought a dress for Shu in the artist alley one day. He is extremely small and dresses fit too well on him. And his hair is girlier than my boyfriend's. :)
Somehow I ended up dancing/stripping on Stage 0. The guy I went up against was good. Real good, he won, and I'm happy he did. :) Felt bad though, when Miku, a girl I just met right then, was asked to leave (and given consolation prize) so that the other guy and me could have a second dance off. I sucked hard ass. :> But I had fun. I was almost toted off by announcer guy, and got to announce to the world that I am FUCKING 18. :> Mr. Talkie guy didn't believe me. :( Shin also got the chance to show off on stage. His way. :) Some friend of the MC was gonna break, so Shin headed up to battle him and won. :> Quite remarkably I'd say, the guy was good. My baby just knows how to get points with the crowd. :D Glad you got the chance to do that though sweetie. We also got Shu to dance in his dress. And it was awesome. I was cracking up when the MC asked the audience "Would you really pick... this [crossdressing Shu] over these hips?" He was up against a songstress cosplayer with shaky hips. And he won. :D
I hardly went to any panels or video rooms this year. I did stop by the Hentai and Yaoi room because I can. 8) It was actually pretty fun, the reactions and random outbursts were funny. The Yaoi room on the other hand was really dull. 5 minutes and no buttsex. =/ Fucking yaoi plots.
Met up with a lot of friends, and had us all get together for a quick fooding on Sunday. I asked Ceasar, Nilo, and Richard to join us and it was sweet. Kirawr left, so I was the only girl though. :<
I didn't go to see those An Cafe guys. I'm not really into them. But Sunday morning, me and shin had breakfast at this cafe by the Fairmont, and the lead singer was in there with I think his manager. She looked like his mom. :P Me and Shin both agree, so I can say this: he was damn cute. He looked generically asian shy and timid and lost and stuff. I got a quick smile :> I wanted to take a pic, but that woulda felt rude. I also walked out wanting to say "good luck" or something or other, but I skipped out on that too. Oh well. I got a smile! FUCK YOU.
I ended up posing for pictures for some guy because apparently he "admired" me. Ew. I do and I don't blame Shin though. He didn't realize what a creep the guy was being, like he was just trying to be "nice." Ew. I'm really glad the photoshoot turned into something fun rather than awkward though. Kirawr, Shu, and Shin had shoots too, so I was really happy about that.
I'll post pictars later. :>
