Title: To think that Fanime is just around the corner.
Post by: Mister_E on May 08, 2008, 11:22:20 AM
I was looking through the photos I took last year and it felt like it was just yesterday.

It's just a little more than 2 weeks away.

yeah I know what you mean.. Time just flys. I feel like I'm getting too old to go to Fanime now. I've been going since 2003, and That was back when I was still and Jr. In high school. =_=
Title: Re: To think that Fanime is just around the corner.
Post by: Gwydion on May 09, 2008, 10:27:49 PM
NEVER too old for Fanime Con. ^^

I'm older than you and I still don't feel too old to come. I started coming in 2003 too, but I was already well out of high school by then. ^^

Yeah, it has been forever since last years, yet it feels like it was only a month or so ago..how time flies when your trying to get ready for such a big event.

Well That makes me feel a lot better, because regardless of my age. I think I'll always enjoy anime/ and the Japanese culture. =3

Med school= crummy (did well, but was depressed)

So I can't say I am NOT looking forward to it, though I wish it was even sooner than next week.

I am freaking out right now.  I have a presentation due in my class today.  Because I want to leave early for Fanime, I have to take two out of four my finals this week.  However, I did not study yet.  This weekend is the last weekend I can work on my cosplay.  Next week, I don't even have time to work on my cosplay because I have two other finals on Monday and Tuesday and I am leaving for Fanime on Wednesday. 

I just received an email from the guy I bought my cosplay.  He said... I am so sorry but I am afraid I can't make your costume on time.  I was like... F*** you.  Do something. 

Then I have to make the wig, organize all the details like shoes, socks for each cosplay.  Practice Karaoke. 

Ahhhhhhh... so many things to do and a little of time.  I just hope I have my cosplay on time. Hic hic hic

People ask for so much money and can't even get their job done.  I hate it. grrrrrrr

Post by: obliviousedward on May 13, 2008, 06:12:00 PM
The banners are up, seriously?!  Woo! ;D  (For some reason that makes me giddy all over. XD)

Only eight more days!! 8D  I can't wait!  I still have a few minor things to work on for my costumes, but I'll finish those up this weekend. <3

I'm so stoked!

*cries* The banners! Everytime I see them I get all teary eyed because it really hits me that Fanime is soooo close!

But UGH! I have soooo much left to do. My cosplay still needs some MAJOR work, and I'm fixing a couple things on a previous year's cosplay, so I'm starting to get kind of antsy. However, my vacation starts as of this Friday, so I have the weekend and most of next week to get everything done. I can't wait!

Agh! I can't wait! Next week is going to be the slowest week in the world, and then fanime is going to fly by! Its totally worth it, I'm sure.

First time cosplaying, and my first con..... Its going to be AWSOME!!!

So excited!  But my timber professor HAD to give us a homework assignment due Friday.  >.<  I'll turn it in Thursday to her office, but it's still annoying.  It's a good 3 - 3 1/2 hour drive up from where I am (particularly if you consider we've been driving the speed limit to conserve gas); once you include picking up our carpool, stopping at the grocery store to stock the cooler, and inevitable gas/bathroom breaks, I wouldn't be able to make it in time to check in for karaoke.  I'm not even attempting to make it to class.

Stupid school, distracting from finishing cosplays and masquerade and karaoke practice.  :-P
