Fanimecon Report Part 2
Sunday
So on Sunday, I wore Sun Shang Xiang again (I washed the costume laaaaate saturday night TAT) while my hotel mates did Katekyo Hitman Reborn cosplays. I was supposed to be Tsuna, but my classmate used my costume because she didn't have one... : / I...I don't think I'm going to lend out costumes anymore, lol, unless I REALLY know the person. She didn't know the series at all, didn't bind, and completely flattened my wig, stained my costume (its also my debate outfit :/) and I didn't get to wear it that weekend.... Anyways, the rest of OMG5 besides Jeanine had already left (actually Nick and Tonya went on Sunday too, but we didn't see them lol) so we just wandered around the con, deciding whether to go to the AN cafe concert or the B&W ball. But looking at the hella long line (wrapped around the building, down the street, turned a corner and down ANOTHER street) at only 2 pm (concert was supposed to start at 7), we decided to just go to the B&W ball later in the evening. During the day though, we had our own mini photoshoots by ourselves.







I wandered off by myself a bunch of times to socialize with my online friends, too, haha. When we went back to the hotel for lunch and to rest, we RAN INTO CHRIS. AKA BLACK GAI.



In the hotel, we ate, rested for a bit, and goofed off ahaha~

I changed out of my SSX pants and shoes and into jeans but my cosplay shirt still on, haha. I had a bunch of people go up to me and say "are you in costume or not? @_@" We went to the B&W dance lessons (twostep!) about half an hour late, so everyone was in the middle and practicing, haha, whilke we paired up with each other to attempt to learn the dance (we did, with alot of help from the instructor, haha). I got asked to dance during the practice dance once even though we were off in our own little corner, haha. I thought the guy was going for my friend ahahhaa~ Aside from slow dances from middle school I haven't danced with any other guys since, and so it was a bit awkward, hahaha. He was really nice though, and helped me alot with learning the dance, cuz I'm dumb and bad at remembering dance moves, ahaha. Met up with Peter later during the lessons, taught him the basic two-step and learned some basic waltz myself. We left and I met up with Jin and Miguel for alittle bit, before spending all my money in the artist's alley. Met with and who are both extremely awesome! I'm married to ahahahahah~

Hikaru-jan!
This girl. Is. Amazing.
Hehehe, we messed around in our little hobo corner for a bit, comparing our bicept muscles, ahahaha. My muscles were like x2 in size by sunday cuz of the posing I did on saturday (arm workout! ahahah) and Jeanine was trying to see if she had gained any...Alas, she still had her small bicepts ahahahha.

Imma gonna beat you up
We went back to the hotel to change, dinner, and to prepare for the B&W ball. I was super dumb, and brought stilettos instead of more comfortable shoes, so I died alittle on the dance floor, ahaha. This is really bad for me to say this...but during waltzes and stuff, we tried to get to the good looking guys corner, but I kept on getting stopped by older and larger otaku... TAT I never made it there... It was still really fun though!

After the B&W ball, we went to go send Casey back to the hotel, and prepared for the rave, ahahaha. We stayed until 2 am, well past our curfew time >_> It was also hella fun though, although there were some sketchy moments, like when the other person in our hotel room told this older guy all our personal and contact info even when we warned her not to and when we strongly hinted at leaving...DX Seeing Jesus wandering around at the rave was pretty amazing though~
Monday
I wore schoolgirl Rukia on monday, which was by far my most comfortable costume and most recognized. There weren't as many people around on monday, as most people left halfway through the day. We just had small photoshoots again, with me as Rukia, Jeanine as Cooking Mama, and Casey as Misty.


GIANT KON






Went through the dealer's hall and artist's alley one more time, and ran into Jin and Miguel again to say goodbyes.


We then went to the AN cafe Q & A session and ended up in the veeeeeeery back, which wasn't that bad since the room wasn't HUGE and it meant I could stand up and take photos, haha. They called on me too! XD and since I was the only person they could see with a big camera, they smiled for me, ahahahahhahaha~ We had to leave early though....
Gokuuuuuuuuuu
And so that concludes my Fanime 2008 report! It was really fun this year, first time going to Fanime for more or less the full weekend, and will definitely try to go full weekend again! I got to meet up with some friends, but we didn't have very much time to talk and I was too shy sometimes to approach others, but I'll be braver next year!
