This was an odd, painful, and enjoyable day xD
Got there late again. This is why Dad and I never get the expensive tickets, we're not there for long enough QAQ;
Went straight to the Exhibitors Hall and got more things AHAHA---
Sword Art Online - haha it's playing right now wheeezes
Darker than Black - Dad randomly saw the first episode on TV once and he's been interested in it since, so he insisted on getting this one lsdjfg
Actually Dad got a bunch I have no idea about, just 'cause he looked at the covers and thought 'oooh interesting'...
Now and Then, Here and There
Dennoug--- something something. I can't read from the other side of the room weeeeeeeps I need new glasses---
sO YES MUCH FUN AND WATCHING TO BE DONE--
Then after that, we got Coffee for Dad and Hot Choco for me, ahaha It was the worst tasting ever. B( for both of us. Don't trust con food //shOT
Then, an hour before it started, we lined up for the AVCon cosplay competition. We were joking around at first, but then it got frustrating, then worrying... T:
Volunteers for the con kept yelling at us to squish up and fill in gaps in the line (within the rope guides) so that they could make the line as short as possible. THey kept yelling and yelling and it was getting annoying. It was interesting at first just HOW far forward we got from only people squishing up. Dad was making jokes that it's not really a Cosplay comp line and that there's actually either a creature, or a really fat guy at the front eating people and that's why the line is getting shorter.
At one point a Steampunk guy and girl left the line and went and sat on a couch, he seemed really sick like he was going to pass out... fifteen mins later I started feeling faint. A little bit longer and suddenly the volunteers had masses of bottles of water and were calling out to everyone if they needed water. a little bit before that, a long while after the guy and girl left, I was feeling really hot and faint.. I:
Took my jacket off and leaned on Dad and closed my eyes but it was getting worse. Needless to say I snagged a bottle of water. From that point on I wasn't feeling great all night, I've even had the day home from work today/Monday. But OH WELL AHAHA.
I overheard a conversation between two volunteers once we were sitting and apparently lots of people were getting overheated and fainting from beings so squished together. Nice one guys. We've not had this problem other years, so whatever it was, please fix it before next year u-u ♥
I have lots of pics of the comps but I AM A SUCKY PHOTOGRAPHER, I'M SORRY WHEEZE, I'LL POST THEM ASAP---
And now for awkward nervious Caity - Nhiz @ http://nhizyr.deviantart.com/ was visiting Adelaide! super sad they came too late to see much of the Con, but we got to chat and hang out afterwards, which was super weird that my dad was so cool with that since he's usually super suspicious and stuff and makes me go home before dark..... having said that I've never really beeeeen out and about the city since my Highschool friends stopped... well.. being my friends? aha ;;;
ANYWAY I DRANK BUBBLE TEA AND HAD GREEN TEA CAKE AND WALKED PLACES I'VE NOT WALKED SINCE IT'S BEEN RENOVATED AND YEAH
Now if you'll excuse me, my headache is back and I need to lay down weeeeps.
I'm so super stressed at work, and I kind of wished I could have spent this weekend working, but I had a fun time and I don't regret anything ;u;~
and yeah, like I said, photo's ASAP when I can.
Kind of planning to post every years photos since I first went, since I've never done that :'D;;;
