I promise to finish my Hatoko costume.
I promise to follow through with the Cosplay Chess idea, and whatever work that entails.
I promise to suck it up and hit on all the gorgeous people I really want to hit on, instead of being a wimp.  T.T;  Subtly, ofc.  And politely.
I promise to go to DerCosplay, if only for the chance to see TeniMyUSA X3
I promise to ditch my lamer friends if they want to do nothing besides sit around in a hotel room when there are other things going on.
I promise not to get saddled with any of my friends' siblings, no matter how many favors I owe them, if they are rabid, biting, money-sucking, whiny little leeches.
I promise to not hassle staff.  <3
I promise to try harder to make all of the autograph/meet&greet panels.
I promise to enjoy MusicFest as much as I have for the past four years.
I promise to not mind the glares/leers/dirty looks/conservative outrage generated by my unusual black & white (yet long sleeved and fully covering) wardrobe.
I promise not to get mad at males who lack the decency to say a simple hello, and instead simply walk up, stare at my chest (read my shirt), and then walk away.
I promise to not take no for an answer when attempting to find Disgaea doujin.
I promise not to sleep in chairs anymore, and to bring an extra blanket so that I can move to sleeping on the windowsill for all three nights.  Best view to wake up staring out at, unless you've got a really gorgeous someone in your bed.

Quote from: "Akaneten16"I promise TO ACTUALLY GO TO FANIME '06 instead of talking about it and getting my hopes up then dashed away cuz I have to go to a family function or some crap.

Come hell or high water, I will go.  ::solumn look o' justice::

You didn't get to go at all?!

I wasn't in town.  I bought my registration about 3 days after fanime '04 ended, and when I found out I couldn't go this year I was PISSED.

My advice is if u want to move on to oni courses.
Just start out wit easy ones like Naoki Standard or Soul 6 (songs that starts wit standard) and and you'll get a kick wit it. And after that play another song that has easy songs to combo out until "u dare enough to combo out hards one".

This will be my groups third year at the con and we have gotten fifty dollars per room both previous years at the Hyatt using this site...if only I could remember the site...Ask "serajwl" from this site about it, she'll give you the website to do it.

Quote from: "Jyunishinsho"
Quote from: "Spiritsnare"
Quote from: "Jyunishinsho"2. to not break the cymbal off the Drummania...the padding, I mean.

Oh, so that's why during one of my recent trips to SJGL, I came close to failing Rukkusu EXT...

- -...well sorry - -.


Something tells me I won't keep my promise of not having HW during Fanime 06. I'm now a senior in high school and I'm swamped with so much stuff coming my way, so, what can I do?
>AUTHOR'S NOTE
Bring the dam thing to Fanime. What have I got to lose? Precious DM sessions? Karaoke?

Oh yeah, new promises:

I promise:

-to find someone at Fanime that will like me (currently heartbroken)
-to complete a list of karaoke songs I have
-to play DDR as Hiro from Bust a Groove
-to go through all the nights without sleep (...again)
-to bring my drumsticks next year
-to not bring my PSP or 3 Jenga sets next year
-to donate to Gaia (and to not sell the items I get there for 5k gold)
-to hug a Dizzy ^^
-to not get homework - -
-to find and create a new way of attracting people (similar to Ramen & Rice), but will spawn just as many copycats.

Ambiguous Promises:
-to somehow jump from the second story of the convention center to the first one.
-to float facefirst in the fountain as Zappa
-fangirls for next year? Aiming for at least 5...

Why didn't you hug me?  :shock:  http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v50/MeliCat/Fanime2005/d3.jpg

Oops. Let me rewrite what I said:
-hug more Dizzy's if possible. I only hugged another (a black costumed with brown hair, not red). Ha, guess I owe you one! ^^

I did see you at Fanime a lot. I saw you at the Duck Duck Goose (I was Choi, the guy with the claws and sunglasses that ate carpet so badly. After I slid, my arm bled and I limped to the TTG room) and with the Chip cosplayer. Marry me, please ^^

-I'll take a different note on the money issue. Spend more money.
         Last two times I went, I took like $200 and spent like $16! I get overwhelmed so easily I walk around dazed for the couple hours I spend there.
-Actually immerse myself in the convention.
            Hope shined down on me this time so I will be going everyday, not rushing a couple hours in one.
-Last and most important. Do not entice my brother's fist of fury....
            You've got to be scared of a guy who can completely drown out music fest with anger, contempt and wishes to kill you.

I promise to plan way too much to do this Fanime that I will not be able to do it all before it all ends. Seriously.

I WON'T promise that I'd be bishounen for next Fanime. That all depends on what may and can happen to me in the period from now and then.

For 2007, I promise to...(everything below is subject to change)

Do
+ Have a group cosplay with my friends.
+ Join staff again. Hopefully Stamp Rally again if the same dpt head still stays/new dpt head is really cool.
+ Limit my drinking more, or even better: Not drink at all! =D
+ Make more time to go out and eat and not die from hungerT_______T
+ Get conjoined staff rooms with my friends in the Hilton, if possible(those Marriott rooms w/o locks in bathrooms seem unsafe in a co-ed room).
+ Get more batteries/memory for my digital camera to get more video footage.
+ Stay longer in Cosplay Masquerade this time.
+ Attend Club Fanime earlier on Friday so I won't have to leave MusicFest/Masquerade in the middle to see it nor will I get in there and start puking because it smells like FC 2005's E-gaming room(no really, the smell made me gag).

Don't
+ Get drunk with some random cosplayer I don't even know nor end up in bed with him after drinking a whole bottle.
+ Not put up with having my room packed with 11 - 13 people in my quad person room.
+ Let my department second keep me from attending panels/events that I DEFINETLY MUST SEE!!! I had to miss out on the Gaia Online Saturday panel because I had to take a shift in the video roomT_______T(which wasn't bad, but I wouldn'tve had to do it if there were more avaliable morning shifts).
