I scored at the swap meet, and got all of Giant Robo on VHS for $2, but then I caved at the Dealers Room and the Artist Alley, where I spent 30 bucks on a poster for Hayao Miyazaki's Daydream Data Notes, which I think is a collection of some of his manga work, and another 20 on a really cool EVA print.

I'm a bit disappointed at the lack of game-selling booths in the Dealer's Room this year. Normally there's maybe one that sells games on a variety of platforms, as well as Aksys's booth, but this year only the latter was to be found. I was hoping to use the $100 I got from selling stuff at the Swap Meet on a game I was looking for.

Hopefully will edit later with pics

3 gothic Lolita bible Mooks

1 Kenshin replica Reverse blade sword

1 Boba Honeydew drink (wasn't even good, now i feel like slapping myself)

I really wanted one of those Bodyline Lolita Dresses too, but maybe next year. Or I can get it online.
And the place where I got the doujins were also selling these super soft pillows and pillow cases. But I didn't have that much money. I wish I got a Hetalia shopping bag! They were only 3 dollars or something on Monday!

I didn't do a good job of keeping track of my purchases, which is why I went about $100 over what I anticipated spending. ^_^;;;

From what I can remember:

At the Swap Meet, all I got was X-day vol 1 which I lost some time ago.

At the Dealer's Room, I got an Aria #4 manga, a One Piece Cup, a Skelanimals short-sleeved hoodie, a Sho-U Tajima artbook, and this year's BAAU Down book.

I kind of went crazy in the Artist's Alley... got 3 posters, 3 postcards of One Piece and a volume 1 compilation of a webcomic (from the same booth), an Alice in Wonderland artbook from a booth with tons of beautiful artbooks, two commissioned pins, one commissioned half body drawing of me with my bf, a knit cat hat, 2 large posters and 3 smaller ones from various different artists, and a pin of a character I don't know but looked cute. ^^;

At the Arcade room, spent about $30 between beating the Metal Slug Arcade game to death and Air Hockey. :3

Food-wise, I went to the Fanimaid Cafe once, Peet's a couple times, and ate way too many steamed pork buns (I think I may be addicted).

-Poor House Bistro ($11)
