As the most disorganized person alive... I thought I'd prepare a checklist for anyone else who's forgetful as I am! Please (please please) add on if I forgot anything!
- Photo I.D.
- Pre-reg printout
- Hotel info
- Cash! And whatever ATM & credit cards you need...
- Cameras (normal, digital & video) w/plenty of batteries, memory, tapes, film, cords, chargers...
- cellphone & charger
- watch
- entertainment electronics (laptop, X-Drive, iPod, headphones - all with appropriate cords and chargers)
- COSPLAY:
~ Accessories (weapons, contacts....)
~ Wig, hair stuff
~ makeup
~ The actual clothes part
~ shoes & socks, if required
- Clothes: enough so you can wear CLEAN clothes when you aren't wearing your cosplay! And shoes... wouldn't want to have to wear your cosplay shoes everywhere, especially if they're heels, thigh-high boots or ninja sandals...
- Personal hygiene stuff! Don't smell! (toothbrush, toothpaste, hair stuff, deoderant... whatever)
- School junk (if you're finals start on Tuesday like mine :cry: )
Ooooh.. thanks.. I happen to be packing right now.
- Surge Supressor (your roommates will love you when the availability of sockets start running thin)
- Drinks! Soda, Water, whatnot
- Snack Foods
- pajamas or other stuff to sleep in (my #1 forgotten item) if you're planning to sleep, that is... xD
- alarm clock (usually the hotels have them but it would suck to miss something because you slept through it...)
- keys! it's important to be able to get back inside your house once you get home... and to drive your car....
-POCKY
Because you never forget your first box.
then there's
-money
-friends who will give you money
-some sort of gaming machine(s) for down time
-your amazing brain
-sugar
this is some weird list I'm making...
Quote from: "Saffy"-money
-friends who will give you money
- supplies to coerce money out of people (ex: art supplies, sign making, spiked collar and chain)
- Emergency Cosplay Repair Kit (sewing stuff, scissors, safety pins)
- gaff tape
~~ Remember, gaffer tape is like the Force. There's a dark side and a light side and it holds the universe together. ~~
For the girls:
-Things you need for that time of the month (yes, for me, sadly T_T)
-Slight make-up (to hide imperfections for the pics!)
-Curling irons/blow dryers (to achive certain hairstyles)
-Razors/shaving cream!
-CHAPSTICK! O_O (I almost missed mine whilst packing)

- gaff tape
~~ Remember, gaffer tape is like the Force. There's a dark side and a light side and it holds the universe together. ~~
And just remember, don't use the tape on any surface that doesn't belong to you--especially don't use it on convention center walls, tables, chairs, floors, hotel walls, etc. Fanime staff keep getting yelled at about tape being used on walls to hold up signs, etc.
Tape on non-people surfaces bad. Makes staff get yelled at. ^_^;
Tape on people surfaces good. Tape on cute cosplaying people surfaces even better. :)
OK. It's almost 4am. Clearly I need to go to sleep now. ^_^;;
