OTAKON WAS INCREDIBLE. Wow. Ota 2010 was my second Otakon, and by far the best experience I've had with the con. Probably because it wasn't my first time at a con, let alone a con that huge. But still. INCREDIBLE. I spent it with three people: my roommate, her best friend, and their guy friend. It was a blast.
It scares me how much my roommate and I have in common. We're on the same wavelength, it's insane. And awesome. And slightly scary, but did I mention it was awesome? CAUSE IT TOTALLY IS.
Anyway. I got to do shit at this con that I wanted to do, rather than my first Ota where I followed my friend around while she went to her photoshoots. @__@ I mean, that was great, but for a first con, that wasn't exactly fun. This con, I got to play Pump Pro 2 in the game room a few times, which was pretty great, stalked Christy Lijewski all three days in the artist alley, and roamed the dealer's room. We also rocked the rave. OH how I needed that. -lessthanthree-
I've come to realize that I don't feel half as bad blowing money in the artist alley as I do in the dealer's room. Partially because I know the money goes directly to the artist, and it's fucking art. :3 That and it's hard to be an artist and make a solid living. So, I feel like I'm contributing to the greater good or some shit. So, needless to say, I pretty much bought shit from Christy like I always do [no prints this time, it's a start!], and bought stuff from two other artists I follow on DeviantArt.
God. This weekend was pretty fucking awesome. Aside from someone pulling the fire alarm, but that's okay. Too bad we didn't get any "Where's Waldo?" pics. Drat.
