Convention Update
Only two conventions left for me this year, AWA and B.Con in Columbia. I was sad to miss out on Animazement, but there is always next year. Though I may be hitting MomoCon and MetroCon next year along with Nashi, AWA, and Banzai. Would love to hit Otakon, but it’s so expensive!
Cosplays I plan to haul along:
AWA:
Thursday Night: Sugar Puff
Friday: Duo Maxwell ( may have a GW panel that...

Tag Game {Blame Hpchickisms (; } and I blame...
Tag Game
This tag is to get to know the person behind the blog better. As with any tagging game, there are rules:
Rule 1: Post the rules.
Rule 2: Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post and then make 11 new ones.
(If you were tagged earlier and already answered the first 11, feel free to just answer the new set - I probably did this wrong anyway XD)
Rule 3: Tag 11 people and link them to your post.
Rule 4: Let them know you’ve tagged them.
1. First fictional love of your life?
Sir Tristan of Arthurian Legend....how could you not love a guy that not only was devoted beyond belief, but kicked all of the other knights, and King Arthur's, bottoms multiple times!
2. How do you feel about showing your nerdy side in public?
It depends on what I am doing honestly, but for the most part, I am true to myself no matter the location : P
3. Do you believe in love at first sight, or soul mates? Either or.
Neither, I am cynical and jaded.
4. If you could do honestly anything at all with your life, what would it be?
A loaded question indeed. I would travel the world and explore, get my long time dream job ( Studying Snow Leopard's and Pallas Cat's in the Mongolian Regions ), and finally come home to settle with my ranch full of mustangs and fresh coffee. I would have the chance to haul my family to Disney, and build my Mom that dream home she's always wanted.
5. What’s a usual outfit for you look like?
Work- A suit....yay...
Play- Usually cargo pants or jeans, a hoodie or cotton long sleeved shirt, and a baseball cap!
Usually dark colors...rare to see me in anything bright and colorful.
6. Sexual orientation and how do you feel about gender?
Straight....and....gender? What do you mean how do I feel about gender? My gender, someone else's gender, a gender in general???
7. What do you think is your best feature?
I'm a Leo, so naturally I want to say my hair...but I would actually think my eyes. They aren't great for cosplay, but thanks to my heritage have naturally shaped cat eyes.
8. What’s a fandom you want to be a part of, but aren’t yet, or something you’re planning on joining?
Not sure there is one just yet...
9. How do you feel about religion?
I am a religious person, but I think that everyone finds their own way to that spiritual enlightenment. Most religions have the same basic rules, it just depends on what you chose to put you faith into.
10. Who’s the fictional character who gives you the most FEELS and why?
Feels???
11. What kind of music do you like?
Almost everything....I am not a fan of RAP or newer R&B but overall I have very eclectic tastes and enjoy various types of music from all over the world. The majority of the time it would depend on my mood.
Ok ---- so, I am now supposed to make up 11 new questions, is that right? Well, here goes! (I wonder if I am supposed to answer these too.. I suppose so, in the spirit of the thing.)
1b. You’ve just won the lottery – FIRST thing you do?
Buy my land and ranch...
2b. How do you get your news? Do you pay attention to the news at all?
I watch various news channels on occasion, but mostly read news sites from all over the world on global topics.
3b. Cakes or Pies?
Pies ( homemade Apple Pie is my weakness!!!! )
4b. If you were an animal, what animal would you be?
Cat, or so I am told.
5b. What makes you the most happy?
To feel accomplished and to bring a smile to others faces.
6b. Three favorite scents?
Clean sheets, fresh coffee, and my Mother's cooking
7b. TIME MACHINE!!! When do you go? What do you do? Who do you take with you?
The 1920s, to a speakeasy with my friend M (It’s been a pact for about um…15 years) and anyone else who wants to go – the more the merrier! ( I second Ratsister on this one! Honestly, I wouldn't WANT to time travel...I have a tendency to attract trouble and could disrupt time lines)
8b. We’re in a futuristic dystopia – there is a movement afoot to unseat the totalitarian regime. You find yourself inadvertently in a position of leadership – how do you react?
Take the lead, get the job accomplished with as little bloodshed as possible, but knowing that without sacrifice a righteous cause cannot be won.
9b. Put your music player of choice on shuffle and tell me the first song that plays.
Through the Fire and Flames by Dragonforce
10b. Tell us a time you did something totally badass!
Putting a jerk face first on the ground without breaking a sweat, with a knee jabbed into his back and arm wrenched up and back... because he thought he could push a 5'2 female around...hurt didn't it! It also helps to know who you are dealing with.
11b. Favorite color?
Garnet Red and Midnight Black
Yayyyyyy My Turn!
1c. What is a strange fact about yourself?
I literally have a rare allergy to the cold...( meaning air, water, food, etc. ) hence why I can't study my Snow Leopards.
2c. What is your guilty fandom pleasure?
Generally not a yaoi fan...considering most yaoi isn't even conceivable...I find Hetalia is one I can root for.
3c. How many pets do you own?
3: 1 dog ( husky German shep. mix named Rebel ), 1 cat ( a Norwegian forest cat named Smelly ), and 1 fish (beta named Jin)
4c. What is your favorite book?
Watership Down by Richard Adams...or Battle Cry by Leon Uris.
5c. What are your top five animes?
Gundam Wing, Twelve Kingdoms, Axis Powers Hetalia, Black Lagoon, and Saiyuki.
6c. Favorite folk hero/heorine?
Pecos Bill
7c. What are/were your favorite subjects in school/college: History and Literature ( Folklore mostly).
8c. What is your greatest weakness and insecurity?
My greatest weakness I would have to say is my pride. Failure on any level eats at me like acid, and brings about the worst in my personality. My greatest insecurity is my appearance as I have never been one to appreciate my own visage and body, but have always felt paled and disgusted with myself when looking upon others.
9c. What elemental sign are you?
I am a fire sign through and through. My Western, Eastern, and Native American are all fire signs...I suppose that explains the pride ne?
10c. What cartoons did you watch growing up?
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Looney Tunes took most of my time.
11c. Biggest Pet Peeve?
Chewing with your mouth open....=-.-= this includes chomping on ice. That is the swiftest route to see how volatile a temper I can have. Second close would be debating without knowing the subject....
Have fun guys =^.^=
I'm not going to tag anyone, but feel free to reply!

What Should I Pack For A Convention: Help List!
I’ve posted this before, however, with crunch time and many conventions around the corner, I wanted to repost =^.^=
I see this question a lot on forums and boards in regard to anime and comic conventions, and so, I decided to give a personal ( hopefully ) helpful list of things to carry along for your first con experience. I find that for these items, as well the rest, a list that you check...

Epic Fantasy: Cosplaying Truth: Bashing others for... →
epic-fantasy:
Bashing others for their cosplaying is simply pathetic.
Who do people even think they are, insulting those they do not even know? It can not possibly make them feel better about themselves for more than a second, so why even bother?
Sites where those who comment can hide behind the false…
