I had a fantastic time...outside of the convention. I showed up at GunBlazeEX's place a few days before the convention, and we are the two laziest lazy things on the planet. Especially together. We just kind of sit around, eat and talk. Sometimes even at the same time.
THURSDAY:
We worked on costumes.
THURSDAY NIGHT:
We didn't sleep and kept working on costumes.
FRIDAY EARLY MORNING:
We still didn't sleep and kept working on costumes.
FRIDAY DAWN:
What. It's down? We didn't sleep at all and we're not done yet.
FRIDAY MORNING:
What. Why are people calling us to...oh. I see, that's the time. Oh...you mean, it's actually Friday now...and we're supposed to be there in a few hours? Uh....we're still not done though...
FRIDAY NOON:
I GIVE UP WORKING ON YOUR COSTUME. LET'S JUST SAY WE'RE DONE. I DON'T WANT TO WEAR MY OWN COSTUME, GIVE ME ONE OF YOURS, GUNBLAZEEX. WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU'RE 2 SIZES TOO BIG? I'LL WEAR IT ANYWAY. YOUR SHOES ARE ALSO TOO BIG. YOU DON'T HAVE SHOE PADS? OKAY, GIVE ME 2 MINUTES FOR ME TO MAGIC SOME OUT OF THIN AIR AND CRAFT FOAM. OKAY I'M READY. WAIT. WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU HAVE TO SPEND TWO HOURS DOING YOUR HAIR. WUT. WHAT DO YOU MEAN I HAVE TO PAINT YOUR EYEBROWS.
FRIDAY:
I worked at the booth in GunBlazeEX's Noctis costume. It was totally awesome. I hung out with the NJ/NY people and it was fun. I had a great time with KitsuneCagalli especially :). We even planned to try the Michael Jackson game together. We had a pretty decent time at dinner together. KitsuneCagalli came home with us <3
SATURDAY EARLY MORNING:
I was incredibly tired when we got back. And due to a communication breakdown (by which I mean, GunBlazeEX being a retard), when I got out of the shower, KitsuneCagalli had already passed out. So I headed to bed to pass out when I was informed that I could not go to sleep until I stitched on the collar to GunBlazeEX's Shizuo vest...BY HAND. At this point, it was 2 in the morning, and I could barely see straight. So I sewed the collar while GunBlazeEX cut the Shizuo and Izaya wigs. By the last stretch, I couldn't even see anymore because my eyes were glazing over so badly. I finished and threw the vest at him, and climbed into bed. I was so tired that when I was setting the alarm on my phone, I kept passing out.
SATURDAY:
I got up 4.5 hours later, and that included sleeping through my alarm. I did ghetto Ganguro costume from Durarara!!. Only to find that GunBlazeEX's cutting skills apparently failed last night. So I had to step in and fix the wigs. And then paint more eyebrows. We got to the convention around noon and had to work some more. And turns out that they changed the way to volunteer to play the Michael Jackson game, so we weren't able to :(.
SATURDAY LATE NIGHT/SUNDAY EARLY MORNING:
We all went to dinner together to celebrate our friend's birthday, and had such a great time :D. Even if I kept having food shoved in my face. Afterwards, we chilled at their hotel room and just had a great time. Highlight of the evening was the Mormon bible illustration of "The Guy Who Got Karate Chopped in the Face, and the Guy Who got Pwned." My favorite story ever. GunBlazeEX and I didn't get back until around 4 in the morning. We had to get up early to go to a wedding, so after we got back, we cleaned up a bit and talked. And kept talking until 7:30. In which case, we decided to finally go to sleep...until we had to wake up at 8.
My beautiful 5 hours of sleep. (It's an hour and a half more than GunBlazeEX at least.....) It was a very tiresome weekend, but it was fun...mostly outside of the actual convention though.
