Warning, super long report ahead.
This is gonna be both on my tumblr and this journal.
Click! Tumblr! AX was so much fun gaiz. I wish some of you went, and I would've been ten times happier >w< .__. But I'll have to be honest, my dad and I thought that last year was way more fun. Even though I lacked pictures last year. IT WAS STILL FUN. And I got to see LM.C last year. D| But anyways onto the report.
As most of you guys know, I went with

. I've never lol'd so much in a car in my life. The car trip went by super duper fast, whereas when I rode with my dad, I slept xD We took some pictures as we waited! 8DD or as Nikki calls it, "lolshots":
[link],
[link],
[link], &
[link] We later played blackjack . . . and she whooped my rear end.
LOL excuse the watermarks on most of the photos. I'm too paranoid of stealers.
Kris went as Mio Akiyama from K-ON. I thought it was cute ;D But she lacked the tophat. People still recognized her though. >w< but we found a really awesome Mio cosplayer:
[link] And maybe like five others, but hey, who's counting? AND THERE WERE NO FREAKIN YUI COSPLAYERS. YOU KNOW HOW UPSET THAT MAKES ME?! D: The anime community is always Mio. Mio. Mio. Mio. ASGJKBEKJB D:<
Sadly, I didn't get to go through with my Anya cosplay. D:< I was super upset. But I found some really good Code Geass cosplays to make up for it ;D
Right before we left, these three passed by us:
[link]and I was like "OMG. ANYA. KALLEN. EUPHEMIA. KRIS I NEED TO TAKE A PICTURE OF THIS DD:" We even got pictures with them ;D (lol@my giant headband) :
[link] [link] And before that, I saw a Gino, Suzaku and another Anya cosplay. This time, Anya's got the whole thing minus her battle outfit:
[link] D: I almost died. I'm too much of a Gino fan LOL. And of course, a Code Geass set is never complete without a CC (or C2. whatever. xD) and a Lelouch / Zero.
[link] &
[link] I managed to catch a really awesome Zero when I was at the exhibit hall but my camera was being stupid and blurred each picture so I deleted them D:< orz orz orz.
So there's a couple of pictures.. For now.
Now onto the exhibit hall shenanigans.
The exhibit hall's always my favorite part because I get to see some of my favorite artists, meet them and I feel as if I'm talking to a celebrity. 8D I bought 6 KH prints.
[link] &
[link] and got two chibis for free. And there was something that really made me feel stupid. When I was deciding what to buy, I got suckered into buying the whole set. For $60. And it was right when I got to the exhibit hall. $60, just like that. Gone. And when I was going home, I realized that the girl said it was $10 for each print.

I AM SO FREAKIN STUPID. D:< And my dad stole $20 from me before we left, so I barely had anything left even though he had a stinkin credit card. I wanted to buy a tophat so badly. ><
We kept searching around for

and

We couldn't find them for ages and I was beginning to get real irritated and wanted to call it quits and just buy lunch. xDD But then a K-ON print catches my eye on one table, and at the table on the opposite side.. was them O: It worked out quite nicely.
I kept passing by

and

's table and I was sad. 8< Their artwork were hanging up on the rack as a display and it was torture for me. *lacked the monies* BUT. I /did/ manage to get a picture of them, and I didn't realize it until I saw Kathy's journal and figured it out:
[link] I was like "SCORE! 8D"
After we found Patsu, we went to eat. I was relieved to finally eat and sit on the floor. Kris and I split a hotdog and watched as cosplayers walked by. As we finished lunch, we roamed around the hall while my dad finished up eating. And we found more cosplayers!
We managed to catch Rin and Len, which I absolutely love because Len actually had a real guitar:
[link];;
[link] <3 Higurashi crew! Even Oishi! We caught them after eating. But they have no Keiichi 8<
[link] ;;
[link] The Marta cosplayer is so pretty ;A;
[link] KUROSHITSUJI GATHERING. I've never seen so many Ciels and Sebastians in my entire life @_____@ I actually considered cosplaying as Ciel with the pink dress and all but it looked like a pain to lug around during the convention. Especially with my height.
[link] I'm not a real Naruto fan anymore. But THIS, was really cool. The Naruto's Rasengan was a little orb and it had blue lights and glitter spinning inside it. It may not sound like it, but it looked real spiffy if you got to see it in real life. xD I felt bad for them though, the Orochimaru cosplayer was like "Are they done taking pictures yet?"
[link] TADAAAASEEEE. I dun like Tadase but I've been searching for a Tadase and Ikuto cosplayer all throughout the convention. D:< NO IKUTOS. fjkbgkwjb.
And on the way home . . . D: I'M SO SORRY THAT YOU GUYS HAVE TO SEE ME LIKE THIS.
[link] "WTF, KRIS DID YOU SERIOUSLY JUST TAKE A PICTURE?!?!"
"Ehehe..

"
But I got my revenge.
[link][: <
I had almost 40 something pictures and a couple of videos.
D| I'm sorry, I'm too lazy to upload all of them. They're too massive.
I'll have everything up on my tumblr, I promise.
OH AND DID I MENTION THAT I SAW AN L AND LIGHT COSPLAYER PLAYING TONSIL HOCKEY? xD
Ooooh, didn't see that coming now did you? |3
