YAY!!!! So yea! As u can see by my pictures, i went to this years Oni-con...IT WAS AWESOME...well there were some stuff that were a little unorganized, last year it took place at the George R. Brown Convention Center here in Houston, and this year it took place at the Marriott Westchase also in Houston, last year there was TONS more space and it was pretty much wide open on the inside, u could see everything taking ur time and walking around with lots of places to go and rest or chat...not to mention the TONS of rooms they had for concerts and some other dealer rooms...well this year it was PACKED, not much room to move around in, just in the main entrance, so yea, we were all squished up at the dealers room since it took place in one room...constant bumping into people and at times items. I promised myself that i wouldent go nuts in buying things but unfortunately i could not resist XD so i ended up buying quite a few things. Last year i wanted to cosplay as Misa Amane, but i guess i failed since i looked like an evil ballerina XD ...so this year i wanted to be Yuki from Vampire Knight or Haruhi from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, but i didnt order my costume quick enough since i couldent decide, so then i ended up having to go shopping for things to put together for a costume. FAIL? I didnt know who to cosplay as so i decided to be Misa Misa again, but i think that this time i looked better XD. I LOVED the concert, it was super awesome, i couldent stick around for the rave though .OH YEA! i forgot, i anticipated this year for people to caramelldanse! But when i was there the song never came up anywhere maybe like once in the dealers room but no one danced! *A* I was like "Nyuuuuuuuu!!!" XD. I was actually kinda surprised when people began to ask me if they could take a pic with me or just of me, i was like "uhh, sure!" and there were like 2 people who looked proffesional and took a picture of me, the first one i didnt notice XD i was just walking around then other one they asked me "may i take a picture of u?" i just said yea, but i didnt think anyone would ask since i thought my costume sucked. The guitarist from Echostream was very nice, i saw him LOTS talking with people in the halls and taking pictures, signing posters, and hugging people X3 my friends went nuts over him XD so everythime they saw him they would hug him, he would just laugh and strike up a conversation hugging them bk XD my best friend's sister managed to get him to give her a kiss on the cheek, everyone just SQUEALED to death! When i took a pic with him he said i was tiny considering that im VERY tall for a girl XD. It was INSANE! I think he remembered us quite well since my friends were crazy because when we were leaving on the last day he was in like an area infront of the hotel smoking, we didnt see him, but he came out from where he was then said "bye guys!" then waved staring right at us, everyone there was like "wha?" XD we were like "omg! X333" my friends ran over to hug him one last time but i stayed from afar since i was kinda tired, but he waved at me with his hand in the air XD. There were many people who had AWESOME cosplays! Over all, this was a good anime convention.
