Tsubasacon in WV; My first anime convention

Well, this past Friday was indeed my first anime convention. It was fun, me and my friend Kayla went. We spent--"we" meaning "I"--a lot of money on candy and food. :P Kayla was kinda broke, so I bought her stuff. Patrick Seikz and Caitlin Glass, both really famous voice actors, were there, and I got to meet them and I got a picture of them, which I will post later. I got a redwood practice bokken, very sturdy. They had a little band playing, but the singer kinda sucked.

There was also a Guitar Hero competition, which my friend Kayla entered into the Expert competition at 8pm. For the first half, she played excellent, but the second half she started getting nervous and eventually lost, but it wasn't by much. Some of the cosplay girls were really cute, too.

And on the way home, I hit a deer.

But the candy was delicious. Yeah I had fun, and I can't wait for the next one.

Wow. Been a while since I've been to a con. Might go to one to meet some friends.

Surprisingly, I might have distant connections with VAs, but ones that are in the American cartoon business. Which is fine for me. As far as I'm concerned, the American cartoon industry includes a greater variety of VAs.

I ought to drag my friends to a con and get them to do God Knows, in addition to our performance we're planning for...

Did you eat the deer?

Sadly no.. for one, I had a friend with me, so that wouldn't have been good. And two, it tasted like Lumina.

Ah. Shame. I would've eaten it.

How much of a drive was it? Couple hours? I'm not sure where in WV this con was, so I don't know.

Huntington, West Virginia - that's about a 30-minute drive from my house. The girl that was with me lives another 45 minutes away, in the other direction..

Ah, that's not so bad, then.

We have a con right in town, but the other (and superior) one is about a 3-hour drive or so away. Sakura-con, yeah. I still haven't gone to that one...
