   Cos-Con III
Yup, so Cos-con III was a blast. Definitely itty-bitty compared to Ota, but still fun. Avenly and I had a blast running around as Renji and Matsumoto. Oh and there was a Gin there (Asmaria)! And Gin took fun Matsumoto/Gin pictures with me! It made my day! Later on in the evening, Asmaria changed into Kira and we had a fun Matsumoto/Kira get drunk photoshoot. Granted, we weren't really drinking or drunk, but it was fun nonetheless.

Avenly and I won our first ever award for cosplay. We entered the hall cosplay contest as a group and won for Matsumoto and Renji. We were quite happy and estatic. Our commissioner is going to love us! (Sam at Taelic Studios, if anyone is interested. She is amazing!)

Let see, what else happened...Oh, I got lots of love as Misa, especially from a Raito that was there. I wasn't sure if anyone would know who I was, but the second I walked, about 5 people were like "Misa!!" and stopped me for pictures. It was a lot of fun! And then I hung out with Raito and L and took some fun pictures with them. They were on staff, and while Avenly and I were modelling Matsumoto and Renji, Raito yelled out "I love you Misa!" as I was walking away, so I blew her a kiss and said I loved her too. We ended up hanging out with them at the dance that night as well. Skypirate got some really good pictures of me in Misa, so that made me really happy. I've only seen one so far, but it's cute and happy!

Um, oh! Our Vash that came with us was quite popular. He got chased around the atrium of the hotel as soon as we stepped in. And then people kept asking for pictures and hugs and whatnot. I think some preteen girl even asked to sit in his lap, but thankfully, he declined. (I think it would have been illegal...) And our Kiba (Naruto) got glomped so many times I think I lost count. It was cute!

All in all, a really fun time! There was a decent sized Bleach group, and we got some fun pictures. Oh, and there was a really good Sand group from Naruto. I was quite impressed. Sailor Moon was there, and she looked cute and amazing as usual. Next year they are having a brand-spanking new 3-day con in Oklahoma City, which I'm excited about and yet sad because I won't be able to attend. I'm graduating in May, so I'll probably be in Florida. Which is okay, because Avenly said she would come visit me and we'll hit up some of the Florida cons. Who knows, maybe I'll make some friends on Cosplay.com in Florida that I can hang out with so I won't feel all lonely and such. I'm planning on flying up for Otakon in July and I think our group is going to hit up Ikkicon in Austin, Texas next semester, as well as the Tatsucon kick-off in January. Yup, yup fun times ahead. I just hope Avenly and I can get all our Trinity Blood stuff done in time....
