So basically I'm excited about Otakon. VERY excited. I may be meeting some deviant people there. *dances* I know for sure of one person who is going, but there are still one or two more who said "Maybe". Then there's all the people who have tables set up at Artist's Alley. I've got to remember to take my RE: Play mangas with me to get Christy to sign them. Ooh I'll be so happy to have her autograph. I love that manga series. <33
This year I'm not going to make it all about seeing and meeting Voice Actors like I did last year. Although I did have an excuse. Last year's Otakon was my very first convention and I knew Vic Mignogna was gonna be there and I wanted his autograph so bad. So I pretty much made my time there all about meeting him...and I prevailed. XD It's not easy to actually meet a voice actor at Otakon. It's a ginormous convention so it's first come first serve. Fortunately I wasn't wearing an uncomfortable outfit and was able to stand in line for three hours to get his autograph.
I'm hoping that I run into a empty panel like I did last time with Colleen Clinkenbeard. I caught the tail end of it and since she had time left over she said she'd accept pictures and autographs. :-) Oh, I was so happy I caught that. XD Although, all of the voice actors I want to meet will probably have a swarm of fangirls/fanboys around them at all times, but here's hoping I can catch someone good! :D
But anyway, before I wander any further away from the subject, I was saying that I was gonna spend more time looking around at the convention. x3 I will go into random panels, cruise the game rooms and maybe play some games (oooh!), take pictures of cosplayers and actually cosplay! I'm really stoked about being able to dress up this year. If I had the money (or talent to make my own costumes) then I'd cosplay as a different character everyday. Preferably someone from Bleach, someone from Soul Eater and someone from Bleach again. lol But, alas, I can only afford one costume and I can't make my own. So it'll just be a basic and kinda plain Bleach character. I won't be dressing up at home either....my family would tease me. D8 So I need something quick to throw on AT the convention.
So yeah, costume has to be small, hair needs to be styled already or really easy to style by myself in a cramped bathroom. rofl This sounds so glamorous. But yeah, I'm really that shy about my obsession with anime. Everyone I know sees it as a completely different creature. Like it's an alien that shouldn't be touched. I don't see why it's so far-fetched. *shrugs*
Oh well, that's it for this journal. I wanted that depressing crap over with. Things are a little better right now and they continue to get better the closer Otakon gets. *jumps up and down* 8D
