   A-KON!!!
Oh, goodness, I just realized I never posted about A-Kon, and that was last weekend! Gomen!!

So here we go!
A-Kon trip started out very early Thurs. morning. We were *supposed* to be out of Denver by 6:30am at the latest, but that didn't really happen. ANYWAY, road trip went well besides for a few minor problems, but everyone was so excited, we really didn't care about the minor things. Note: Road trips are much more fun if you have more than one person! It really makes the time go by faster! ^___^

We got to Dallas at about 10:30pm. Had to wait a while to get into the room because the people we stayed with went out to see a movie. Once all introductions were done (only half of our group knew each other, so that was interesting), we got some sleep.

Lines at A-Kon are horrendous, I must say. We got in line for our passes at something like 7:00am, they didn't start giving them out until 9am, I think, but we had to be there that early just to get a decent spot in line! Waa!

Enough about that. here's some highlights. Cosplay was awesome! I'll get a gallery on photobucket for you all to see some fun pics! ^__^ I ended up cosplaying Ritsuka from Loveless, while Dan cosplayed Soubi. His idea, not mine. loL! Hehe, his first cosplay... a BL show. he got glomped, and it made me laugh. ^^ And the dealers room was amazing! SOOOO huge! I definitely over spent by about $100.... oops... Hmm, last major highlight was the concert of Ketchup Mania and MELL. Ketchup Mania was cute... the lead singer doesn't have the best voice, but she was cute. MELL was cool, though. Her stage show was kind of different--she's very emotional and her dancing is a little weird, but overall, I really liked her! Plus, her music was beautiful!!

All in all, I enjoyed myself quite a bit at A-Kon. I must say that I like my smaller NDK better. But A-Kon was a great experience and I'm SOOO happy I went! ^___^ Yaaay!

PM me if you want to know more! I'll try to post some pics soon, too.
