Shoujocon...

(In an effort to make myself actually get this con report done, here's Friday, which I mostly typed up a while ago.)

...Rocked, put simply. After lots of running around Friday morning, we finally got started. There was lots of CD playing and X Movie watching and singing and randomness on the way down. We got lost trying to find the hotel, but not that lost, so it was all good. The traffic wasn't as bad as last year either. Within twenty minutes of getting into the hotel, I found basically everyone I was looking for, starting with Lisa, who randomly appeared as TB Subaru three minutes after we walked in. She has to be the cutest 5'11" twenty-one year old ever. We hauled our two tons of stuff up to the hotel room and got settled in, and I changed into my shikifuku and went friend-hunting. Ran into Lisa again, as well as Mel, AKA Other!Subaru, who was doing that color pictures of Sakurazukamori!Subaru, complete with eyeball jar. On a whim, we went outside and got a whole bunch of Subaru group shots. When we headed back inside, we ran into some girls cosplaying as shoujo bubbles, who felt the group!Subaru love too ^^ Latter that night, I also got to meet Ko and Rachel, who were small and cute and cool, and had Seigaku shirts. We ended up hanging around our hotel room for a while, fangirling, discussing intresting X theories, being squicky, and managing to scare everyone but Anthony out of the room in the process, as Anthony doesn't mind the squick, PoT slash, and South High tennis team slash (because slashing your own school's tennis team is fun). Sometime around one am, everyone else got tired of sitting in the hallway, and tired period, and made everyone go to bed ^^ And that was Friday.
