Oni-con/Halloween Recap

This is a week late. ^^;
Omg omg omg! Weekend! You so fun!

Oni-con

I went to Oni-con this weekend in Galveston with Croweh and J-J, a first time con goer school friend of ours. So we got to Galveston on Friday night. So nothing happened then. I didn't sleep AT ALL on Friday night due to a TV the wouldn't turn off, snoring roommates and the fact that we were next to a highway. I heard a car wreck, sirens and a train before giving up on the idea sleep. Everyone else woke up around 6:30-7:30 ish and got ready-ish. Croweh was clad in casual Marluxia, J-J was a very ghetto, but still cute umbreon and I was, of course, Claire. We ate breakfast and went back up to the room to finish getting ready. We drove to the convention center and followed some Asians until we found the parking garage. We went in and waited for Reg to open. Met up with my buddy Josh real quick after getting our badges. I literally tackled him, and it was awesome (I don't tackle or glomp very often). We wandered around and explored the convention center. We chatted with JET TEXAS(if you go to Texas cons, you know who this is probably), which my brain pretty much fan-girled to death over, and actually kept my composure while talking to him, he was really cool. We herped-a-derped about, went to the dealers room. OMG, I saw a fricken BEAUTIFUL Darkside Chronicles Artbook in there and it was $50 and I almost cried at how poor I was! STEALING! WHY Y U SO MORALLY INCORRECT?!? I got a call from my Steve while I was in there and he implored us to attend the Ask a Nation panel because he was helping with it. We walked around a bit more and checked out the gaming room, I met some other Resident Evil cosplayers and got asked for quite a few pictures, which made me pretty happy, seeing as I got barely any at SJ. After the AAN panel, he changed into his Steve cosplay and I chatted with more RE cosplayers, like two Barrys, a Carlos, a Chris, some BSAA members and some Umbrella Corp. grunts(Yeah, we were like all in the same place) while waiting for him. He was such a lady really, took forever to get changed. After that we walked around a lot and he talked to his friends while I stood behind him and was like, "I'm gonna stand here and not talk, kthxbye." We walked around and met FRICKEN TWABI and I was just like "OMG DIEING OF AWESOME OVERLOAD!" We met up with my friends again before heading to the Cospaly Contest room. I just want to add a random note here. I LOVE gamers. I just absolutely LOVE them. That is all. Anyways, we chilled in the contest room and met some cool new people I met an awesome Nathan Drake who's name I wish I had gotten! We did our walk on and I'm sure I did terribly because I was SO tired. After the contest ended, my Steve talked to the Wesker from TWABI who complimented the jacket that I had made for my Steve and on the inside I was like, "AHIGADKFADKLHADLKGADFL DYING!" and on the outside I was like, "Thaaank yooou...-derp-"
I almost exploded, to put it simply. -isafangirltothemaximum-

So a pretty okay con. No drama, no stress. Short and simple. Lots of ego boosting for me. >_> Just sayin.
No photo shoots I'm afraid. But here's one pic taken of my Claire cosplay.





















Halloween

I spent Halloween with great friends Mizu, Aza and NamelessAndroid. It was super duper ridiculous fun. I was originally going to wear my Trick and Treat Rin cosplay, but I didn't have my twinsie with me, and I didn't want to do it without him. But I did have a zombie buddy! So I was Claire again instead! :D
First we went to Denny's to go bother Croweh. And we're all pretty sure it made her night. After that, we returned to Mizu and Aza's neighborhood to breifly Trick or Treat. It had gotten late, so not much in that. After that, NamelessAndroid(MAI ZOMBEH BUDDEH) and I did a tiny photo shoot. Twas much fun dahling! We MUST do it again sometime! After that, we chilled and watched Nightmare Before Christmas and then my dad came to pick me up because it was late and a school night. /shelteredchildplz.
Eitherway! Picture time! Yay!



Yay for zombies! I hope everyone had a great Halloween! ^_^

Til next time,
