Ahro's Big Summer Vacation Trip (Metrocon)

Journal Entry: Sun Jul 20, 2008, 10:15 PM



Sooo we finally reach that time in the summer where Metrocon in Tampa rolls around. No artist table but we went for Sunday which , IMO, a lot easier and a lot less stressful. We drove up on Saturday morning and headed first to the Reptile Expo in Orlando. Lots of cool reptiles. I was all excited when I found the turtles. :3 After about two hours or so there we drove to Downtown Disney to pick up our Mickey Mint goodness. Left Orlando and headed back to Tampa where our Hojo was. Which is an extremely funny adventure in itself. We have highly entertaining footage of ~nozomigakanau spazzing out at the thought that she booked the same scuzzy Hojo that we stayed in two times previously. She swore she wouldn't stay there again and she ended up booking it again. Hysterical. >D

Spent the whole day at Metrocon on Sunday. I personally find spending one day at a con far more enjoyable than all three. If I had an artist table obviously it's a different story but I'm not huge into anime etc so a lot of the panels don't do it for me, and I can only look at the same stuff for so long. I did meet up with an old friend from high school whom I haven't seen in forever. That was awesome and we spent a good two hours talking and drawing. That was a nice little reunion.

As far as spending money I brought my sister along so I spent a lot of money on her. But I feel bad cause when I was her age I never got to go to one of these cons so I figured it'd be a nice treat for her. She's a big fan of the anime Princess Tutu so I bought her the complete series. And she got a small Wind Waker Link plushie. I ended up buying Seasons 1 & 2 of Slayers so now I have the entire series so I'm excited. :3

Umm... other than that... not a whole lot. Glad to be back home again but that also means back to work tomorrow. D:

dude sounds like an awesome time!! I always freak when I see the turtle exhibits too XD I've been obsessed with them longer than THE turtles. LOL! and Disney!!! did you go in the park? Cuz' if you did you must tell me which part! I've only been to the movie part (the name escapes me DX ) ahaha man I'd like to see this footage XD but your friend would probably kill you if you put it up >.>

Oh man I've always wanted to go to a con!! I just found out they actually have a couple here in MI! but they aren't really all that exciting....man it would be fun to try one out though. What all does the megacon consist of? is it like...everything?

Anyways it's great to have you back again! and can't wait to hear from you too :3

Yes~! Turtles are so cute. >3 Especially when they're babehs. We only went to Downtown Disney cause it's free other than shopping. XD I've only ever been to Epcot and the Magic Kingdom. Honestly I prefer Universal to Disney.

Oh, cons are fun and... quite interesting. Cons are basically lots of vendors who sell loads of anime, manga and video game stuff. Loads of people, many cosplaying as different characters. They have panels for gaming and watching different animes as well as costume contests and lots of other things. Also the Artist Alley. They also have a lot of celebs that come like voice actors and such. Larger animes like Megacon have bigger name celebs generally. Like we met Sean Astin two Megacons ago.

Hehe It's great to be back. ^^ I hate long car rides. D: Get all achy afterwards.
