CONVENTION!!!


omg, omg!!! i just got back from the convention!!!! it was so awesome!!!!!!!!!! i'm still squealing! u should've totally been there!!! i'll break the con down into "events" that happened!!!!

the "Vic" event.
well, it was the first day, friday, we had just gotten there, wendy and i were spazzing out completely!! we were so happy, and we went to the second floor of the con and wanted to look around and buy stuff! (there were tons of anime stuff, it was unbelieveable!!) well, as we were walking i saw someone from teh corner of my eye. i look around and the man looked familar. i was like
"wendy, isn't that vic mignogna, the guy who plays ed in full metal alchemist?" and she's like
"i dunno" so i decided that it never hurt to ask so i went and tapped the guy on the shoulder and asked him if he was Vic, he said YES!!!!!!!!!! we spotted him out of the crowd!!! i like squealed for a minute non stop and then i got pictures and i got to hug him and everything!!!! it was so fantastic!!!! (i also got his autograph later at his session, it was awesome!!!)

the "Greed event"
okay, i know u probably don't know who greed is, but he's a homunculi from full metal alchemist and he's my fav! and i got to meet the voice actor, it was pretty awesome! he was so funny!!!!!!! he wrote "SQUEEEEE!" on my autograph! lol

the "VGcats" event
walking around at the art galleries, i found the guy that draws VGcats selling his art! and i got a picture taht he drew, squealed, got an autograph, and we took pics! it was cool! he was a really cool guy!

the "line" event
this one wasn't really taht special, but special things came out of this. we were waiting in line for the autographs for vic, chris patton (greed), wendy powel (envy) and while me and wendy were waiting, we started talking to ppl. the first was a girl dressed up as kakashi, she did a really good job! and we ended up meeting her later and really got to become friends! but, that's not even close to wat happened next!!!!

there was a alot of ppl in naruto cosplays of course, but there was a few ouran guys (and girls crossplaying like myself as neji). and then there was this little boy who couldn't have been over seven that dressed up as hunny!!! he had the blond hair, the suit, and bun-bun!! and he was on a guy's bakc that was dressed up like mori!!!!!! it was so cute!!!! i almost fainted from squealing! (we got pics so we'll send them to u once wendy sends them to me). then, there was HIM.
okay, some guys at the con were cute, some were definity not. this guy, was amazing!

i was standing in line (the same line! we stood there for like an hour!!) and i heard someone muttering about how no one was dressed up in one piece! and i look around and it's a really hot guy dressed up as Sanji! so i asked to take his picture! (wendy and i got braver as the days went on, we definitely started randomly asking ppl who had really good cosplays if we could take their pictures.) he and a luffy were like sure, so we got his picture. or rather, i did, wendy was in another line. well, that wasn't the last we saw of him. i'm guessing wendy found him after i did and she got pictures, so later on that day, he found us and informed us of a one piece photo shooting and he wanted us to come! unfortunately, something we really wanted to do was at the same time, so we couldn't go! so we were sad and then, i had a dream that night that we got to see him later!! so i told wendy and i was like, "u know, most of my dreams come true like that" and we really hoped we would get to see him again. well, we saw him on the second floor, but missed him, and then at the very end of the con we saw him! so we got one last picture of him! and he gave us hugs and then he bent down and said "as payment since u two have taken allota pictures, u both can give me a kiss on both cheeks!"

we blushed so much!!! it was so awesome! so of course, when momma wasn't looking we complied! then wendy got his myspace and then he told me to send him theotaku address so he can get on it and keep in contact!!!!!!!!!!!!! SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! me and wendy will so remember him!!!

the "improv" event
okay, wendy and i decided we were going to go see the improv show for the voice actors! hilarious! it was so funny!!!!!!!!! i loved it! it was very perverted (so my mom didn't like it, cause she wasn't sure if she would've let us in after hearing it, she even left), but oo so funny! like they were doing a gay skit, (this was Vic, Chris, and a guy named Zero) and chris and vic were stuck in an elevator. and it was just soo funny! another good one was when ppl gave props, and they had to make stuff up w/it. one really good one was the "vibrating mokona". use ur imagination on that one. tho they didn't take it as far as i thought they would! lol Vic ending taking the sakura wand and pretending it was a gun, picked up the mokona and was like "nobody move or the rabbit gets it!" it was so hilarious! then they had where ppl wrote stuff on a piece of paper and then they had to say it. some of the lines were

"oo, u touched my tra la la"
"can i have that supersized?"
"tentecles" (that was used in the skit of the lion tamer, and vic was addressing zero as the lion tamer saying zero used his "tentecles" to fight away the lion!)
"wanna fanta!" (wendy wrote that)
"chris patton looks dead sexy in a miniskirt" (i believe chris turned a nice shade of maroon after that)

u get the idea. that was basically it, but it was so funny! i think my friend recorded a bit of it, so i'll get that!

the "chuck" event

this is another thing that started in that line. god i love that line. this event, made my weekend. (besides the sanji part! ^^) i was waiting in line when this girl dressed as renge came up and she was advertising this fanclub, i read the card and it's for chuck huber!! (hiei ppl, my fav all time character! the person i have a shrine of! the person in whom i have multiply fanfictions of! the person whom i think is the hottest, sexiest character and has the hottest voice in the world!!!) and the girl says chuck is going to be there at 12 the next day!!!! can u believe it!!!!??? i was so estatic!!! i begged my parents to let me stay the extra day, and i waited so long outside (i waited for an hour just so i could be first). but there wasn't really taht many ppl, which personally, i was grateful for. so then he came in, and i like screamed! i think he was even taken back. i was like, about ready to bust! and y'all know that cover page for the "a feeling never felt before" that's on here? i got him to sign it!!! it was so awesome! he talked, and they have a club that i'm now in! i got pictures, got sigs, and i got to hug him! and he even did my fav line from yu yu hakusho!!!!! it was so awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i screamed, i really did! i even got a t-shirt for his club, and i like, love him!!! so it was the icing on the cake cause i didn't know he was coming! it was great. life it is good!! ^^

the "portfolio" event
this happened after teh signing and before a panel i went to. i took my art and was going to get it reviewed by an editor like person. i was so nervous! specially since i was the only kid in the room! everyone else was over eighteen!!! and so i went up there, and before he even looked, he asked me how old i was, how long have i been drawing, and have i had lessons?

reply: "fifteen, five years, and no." he looked through and was amazed! i know he was nicer to me because i was fifteen, but dad said he definitly didn't have to say all those nice things, we was definitely a great thing! he even showed it to other ppl! i was so red!!! ^^ he even said he might hire me for a job if i could draw a fantasy person w/big swords and junk. he gave me his card and told me to keep in touch! i was so happy!!!!!!
