Anime Boston '04

Well I have finally made it to my one year anniversary of going to cons ^^ Isn't that great? I guess I'm no longer a n00b anymore XD

This year was certainly lots of fun. I got to spend most of my time with my awesome ParaKiss group. Everyone was so nice! I hadn't met any of them before; so it was all certainly a surprise to see what they were like. Though some times were hectic and we lost each other, everything worked out great! At the masq we took Best in Show Group Craftsmanship. So amazing~ Warumono actually cried; I was so happy for her. I know the work it takes to organize a group; she deserved it.

One thing i really loved was TyJILDown's B-day party - It was teh awesomest.

At nights I got to be with Katie and Ali back at my dorm - how convienient not to have to have a hotel room! We stayed up watching Bebop and eating and chatting a bunch. So much silly goofiness. When we had decided on the chicken dance as a skit - that was the best - that and climbing over a fence in dresses to get home XD It was a sight to see.

Personal Sadness: the masq was so-so; there really should have been more skits. It was kinda boring - i was enjoying watching the AMVs during intermissions ^^; Friday morning was the worst for me: I lost all of my Bell accessories (earrings, shoes, necklaces, beads, gloves - all gone) It was awful. Therefore, my bangs weren't styled and I was grumpy. I really wanted to meet the group members too! There was a Welsper too! Also, I think our AMG photoshoot could have been run better. I don't think any of us were the leader type; so we snapped some shots then left.

Big Downfalls: I cannot wait to have AB at the Hynes! People are spread out everywhere and so its A) easy to lose people B) it doesn't look like anyone is at the con. Though the Castle was nice because it was bigger - it was a pain to get to. Also, i stayed at my dorm, but i don't know anyone who was pleased with the rooms at the Park Plaza. Its not as though the rooms had to be classy - but many complained about things being broken and the rooms not being cleaned properly. ew. XP

Good things: AB was certainly run better this year. Things simply ran smoother! It seemed everyone on staff knew what was going on. Good for them. Hopefully next year will be an even greater success.

Highlights for Me: meeting everyone in my group, the badger, flashing the entire audience with my bloomers, continuing the lucky streak of winning an award at every con I have ever been to *_*, having the coolest Arashi (Mark, you rock) and getting to be his "girlfriend" -also meaning no fanboys!, hiding underneath Katie's children-eating dress, meeting RyuichiNG, Bluedragon, and Lindze, and seeing old friends like (bring on the shout-outs) NeoAngelWink, Lialia, Andre, TyJILDown, Halo, Rhi-chan, AnimeChicky and AnnaNeko.
