So the con was very different then I expected. So incredibly small, and consuites at small cons are GOD. I understand why they don't have em at like Star Fest, NDK (Or god forbid AX) but it was my savior. Free Soda the whole con? Fuck yeah.

On that note, I'm giving up soda. I need to lose about 20 pounds or so. My clothes are not fitting anymore D: And my mom is the least helpful dieting person ever.

Anyway, the con was cool, but teeny. Got some books, some jewelry, got our portfolio reviewed by a famous space painter who ADORED IT, and got it passed around the whole dealers room by Lisa, most of which adored it, and told us we were dumb for not being in the show. We're gonna work on some more original stuff, less fanart (Like a kitsune mama with a liter :D), and I found out you can send art out to sci-fi/fantasy cons, you don't have to attend :D

AND some lady grabbed me and told me I looked like Ozma :DDDD

ALSO~ We made friends (And awesome networking buddies) with Lisa and she's amazing. We're gonna help her with her corsets for free merchandise (These'll make our femme Akatsuki's pwn) and we also get to learn HOW to make corsets, AND she does the same con circuit as us, so we can start going together and splitting prices, and cross advertise for each other. We're gonna help her design more that'd be more oriented to anime fandoms (I have some Naruto ones in mind, some WOW, and one Leloch/Kamui styles)

I love bartering.

AND I made a new Tsunade necklace to replace my lost one and I LOVE it, it looks so much more like a real necklace like that would look then my last (And the "balls" are tiny coins):

OMG I JUST HEARD THE NEW FRANZ FERDINAND SINGLE :DDDDDDDDDDD. Lucid dreams. Win.

With Lisa, yep :3 it was so cool.

That is reeeally pretty :000

And, dude, props on giving up soda. I need to re-give-up soda >__> It gives me kidney stones, and I was doing SO WELL. ;; Course it helped when there was never any soda in the house XD;;;

:D

Tex was really good at keeping the soda in her room when she lived here, you could ask her? Cause yeah I have that "If it's in front of me, I'll drink it" mentality.

I think we just found the solution tonight actually -- we bought Coke Zero but no Sprite. I love Sprite but I generally won't drink Coke or Pepsi given the choice, so let's see if I can keep my hands off the stuff. XD

And Coke Zero isn't even as good as those, so good luck!

I might try something like that pre-my next con, for now I'm trying slow and steady.
