I had lots of fun in Baltimore this year! It was easily one of the best Otakons I've had. I hung out with friends including and , and I met some new people.

I didn't spend as much money as I have in years past. There was some stuff I wanted in the dealer's room (a neat dragon robe like what my boyfriend bought, and furry "squeakers" from the stand with the ears and the furry legwarmers), but it closed before I could blow all my money. That's probably a good thing!

The only place I spent any money was the Art Alley xD I only got 3 commisions because I've started to get really picky and only go to the friendliest artists because then I don't feel so weird for my request. I found a girl who I bought from at Anime Boston and got one from her again, she draws so damn fast and totally rocks. And she remembered me lol.

I also bought a print...A PRINT! I never buy prints because most of the time I think they are boring as shit. It's like "oh look, a picture of Naruto with fancy coloring" or just like dull headshots and most of the time they are from serieses I don't care about.

But the one I finally spent money on is like THE BEST THING EVER. LOOK: [link]

It's scary guys, I ship it now ._.;;

I didn't do AS MUCH partying, I didn't really feel like drinking past the night before the con, waking up sick in Baltimore really isn't ideal for me. I did go to the rave both nights, I had the most fun when I went with Sparkles there on Saturday night xD

Coming home sucked - LONG train ride, car ride, ugghhh 12 hours of traveling. I also have been terribly emo about returning :/ Oh well.

Anyway, I hope the people I met, artists and others, will keep in contact with me because they seemed really nice, and I'm already counting down to next year.

Time to go get some mail ready!
