AFest was WIIIIIIIIIN!

Tue Sep 8, 2009, 10:44 AM
I had such a wonderful time at AFest this year! Got to attend and participate in a lot of great panels, and helped run some panels and events as well. I thoroughly enjoyed the semi-formal dance (which I think went a lot better this year than last year) and got to dance with so many great people. It was like one of those fairy tale kind of moments, getting all dressed up and dancing with the prince. And the vampire. And Severus Snape. And James Bond. And Miles Edgeworth. (I love anime conventions! ^^)

No new photos yet, but hopefully I'll have some new things to post soon. Big thanks to Kuragiman and Q and SkyPirate and the other great photographers out there. I was part of two small cosplay "groups" this year - the Tres Bien restaurant staff from the 3rd Phoenix Wright game (complete with our own flamboyantly pink chef!) and an awesome Elite Beat Agents group! Definitely my first foray into fanservice costumes, but I had a lot of fun getting to be a Diva~

Only one small announcement - I've signed up to participate in the Extra Life charity, where gamers basically do a 24 hour marathon gaming day to help kids with cancer. If you'd like to support me and help out a great cause, please check out my page here: [link]

And now, time to start thinking YULECON! Convention madness never ends - and I wouldn't have it any other way! :heart:

oh hai thurr I'm spamming you about yulecon again. XD
I just won the free room! How awesome is that? (Now I'm all excited about it)
Anyways do you know what day/time/whatever we'll be doing the Sailor Moon group?

Hey, bonus! That's awesome that you won!

I was asking around with my group for Sailor Scouts. I would think saturday (as well as Sunday for the Christmas Twist contest - we'd love to have you join us for that!)

I will let ya know once I learn more... without having a schedule yet it's kind of hard to plan things.

(You should totally sign up for TMCC tho!) ^^

Well that works out perfect then! All I know is that I'll be in my usahana ginjika (however you say/spell it) saturday after the contest and shilo friday.
I'd love to join y'all in the contest, although I entered in the cosplay contest last year (same costume) so I'm not sure if that'd work. O.o I guess I'll just have to ask whoever's in charge of it.

I know, I really should. I will.... someday...

Well I think the "Christmas Twist" is kind of different from the regular contest.

I know that confirmed (judging by progress pics) we'll have a Venus (Mystic), Mercury (me), Neptune (Nanako) and Uranus (Yuki). A few others signed up, but I haven't seen progress on them. And of course Katarinia had her Moon last year! Two Inners, two Outers, and the two Moons... not a bad showing!

Here's mine so far: [link]

I totally sat in front of y'all at the repo! show last night. But I'm weird/shy/antisocial/something so didn't say hi. Sorry about that. (Hi!)

Hey girl!
I may of found a Saturn for the group at YuleCon. You haven't already found one have you?
It'd be my friend :iconlividdoll:, btw.

I think we have someone cosplaying Saturn.
No harm in having more than one though! ^^
