Back from ACen, and what a trip! Not a lot of interest when it came to panels and what not, but it was still a great time. The new charity dance they tested out this year was excellent, especially with the Spoony Bards providing the music. My date was a real gentleman, and we had a great time. It was awesome going to an event that wasn't full of squeeing--everyone was dressed incredibly nicely, and there was no stinkiness!
The costume contest had it's glitches but I won't argue with the end result. This year I actually managed to scrape two awards: a merit for craftsmanship, and a judge's for walk-on. I'm incredibly pleased that I did better this year than last, and I finally feel I can take a break from competing. Of course I'll still have cosplay for next year, but I think I'm gonna give the contest a break.
Only five more weeks of school! I'm SO looking forward to summer vacation, especially getting to work on some art and catch up on all the anime and things I wasn't able to do over the course of the year.
So hooray for the successful trip! Back to work tomorrow! :P
