Yeah yeah I know shut up. It was basically back from Sakura con, into the music room for our choir sections and now into the dance studios for the upcoming dance festival, and some casual WWII tests, Japanese school...you get the point

Let me start off by saying.
BEST.CON.OF.MY.LIFE.

Day 0 Thursday: FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO WILL GO TO SAKURA CON. GO ON THRUSDAY! Pre-reg made simple. As opposed to last years 4am wake up and 6 am departure and 8 hour waiting...this year it was a 8 am wake up, 11am departure, 1 hour pre reg, hotel literally across the street and very lovely dinner. Again my good friend Selena-bean joined me, we had a blast.
Sat in pre reg, did some interviewing becasue my Media Arts class gave out a documentary assignment so I thought why not Sakura con?! I made friends fast. I wore my black and purple Yukata and I have to say I felt a little nostalgic putting it on since the last line I had it was for my sports day back in my Japanese highschool, but I ended up making a ton of new memories in it this year as well.
And I met Alexis. She's a girl I have been APH Rp-ing with for a while and despite living all the way in Kansas she told me she was coming to Seattle to see me. Made me the happiest girl all weekend.
Went to Kaizenzushi (sushi on a conveyor belt) for dinner

I ate a lot... (JK that was me+Selena+my father)

Day 1 Friday: Wore my mainichi nihon cosplay, I have to say it was an adventure trying to keep the slip shut xD Thanks to Selena who dressed me so well all of these days ;A;
Met up with Alexis who was my HonKong for the day~ Yeah we were two obscure countries and she still got mistaken for China but we had a lot of fun. Met up with ~Voyska-PVO who made a super cute Italy. With him and a Korea we collected along the way we headed to the APH shoot.
I really love Sakura con becasue you get to meet people from all over. I met a China from Dallas, Hong Kong was from Kansas and a ton of people were from Portland, Seattle, California and more. Lot of pictures happened a the APH shoot and they will be up soon.
I had a wonderful day, wandering around the dealers hall and such.
Then came dinner time when Selena, Alexis and I got a carriage bike ride and braved the public transit to meet :devBlackgat-girl: in the international district. So many stares. BUT I HAVEN'T SEEN HER IN OVER TWO YEARS. there was love, everywhere. Udon and love.
Returned to the con, changed into my Queen of Hearts and went to the Mascaraed ball where I actually danced with so many people I will never know the names of. tall, short, men, women, confused international students. It was great. Went to hotel passed out.

Day2 Saturday: Spent the morning in K-On! as Azu-Nyan with my sexy lady ~Bucket-girl and got some really nice out door pictures in the cherry blossom trees. Hung out with Alexis and ~Voyska-PVO who was pulling a pretty awesome English police man cosplay. Lunch was a sub and I headed back to the hotel to change into Lenalee to meet up with :devAnya-Panda: I was stupid and got the times wrong thought (If your reading this Anya I'm SO sorry /heart break/. We did meet up eventually (it was SO busy that day) Anya and I headed outside for D.Grey-man photos. She makes a really hot Allen guys. Not even going to like she is such a man....a very cute man (hahaha)
I had been split up from Selena and Alexis but I didn't mind. Life lesson of the Con, don't cling to people, go off, explore on your own. If you cling or panic the min you on your own I guarantee your experience won't be as fun.
Went to the Cannon/Moi dux Moix concert!!!!!!!!!!!
Found Selena and Alexis and went to dinner at the same sushi place, I have to say I will never tire of that place.
Worst moment of that night? When we were leaving, we were running sort of late for the rave, everyone was everywhere and in the midst of that someone called my name. I nodded and smiled and run off. Turns out it was ~Saki-sensei who GOD DAMNIT we are not meant to meet. I feel so bad because I have wanted to meet her forever...and I did but then I didn't..slkjgnskrlhnejkhnskzjgfnlk -shame-
Rave was an awesome way to end the night, sat outside in the dark with S&A. It was sad becasue Alexis left on Sunday morning so this was the last night I would see her.

Day3 Sunday:  8am Alexis came to our Hotel lobby to say one more good bye to Selena and I. There were tears, not from me though I was so tired I didn't have enough energy/water in me to cry. After a hug and a kiss we said bye for real. Though I was sad I was still so happy, the time we had (the 3 of us) was so wonderful I can't even begin to describe it. Next Year Selenas going off to University so she won't be down with me and who know what will happen with everyone. I can't think of that though, not after all the awesome experiences. I thought the con was basically over. but not yet.
French bistro breakfast then a quiet morning at the con, dealers hall spent my pocket change, ~Bucket-girl and :devAnya-Panda: had left as well. THere were less people too but I couldn't have handled anymore. Went to autograph signing from M&M and Cannon. I met an exchange student from Tokyo as well and we filled the 2 hours nicely.
Got back RIGHT at 3pm when we got back on the road. Slept in car. Ferry. Home.

So many good things happened. It wasn't like I had carefully scheduled this out and not a whole lot of pictures of me got taken but the universe seemed to align and suddenly all the people that mattered most to me were there, in one spot and one time and it really felt magical. I know I will never have another con quite like it, I won't even try. I am just as happy holding on to this for the rest of my life. So thank you guys for making me so happy, all of you.
And thank you to Selena as Alexis for that damn art book and my cat bus hoodie....damnit. I love you guys so much.
The end.
