Animecon XI

What a weekend. I think this was the most stressful convention I've had in a while. But how worth it it was.

Friday
PCS's bus to convention equals seven hours of awesomeness I almost immediately made some new acquaintances! We had fun talking about things (and discussing some series we all had watched). I had to do some last minute sewing because Tae had no shoes and I didn't have any time to do any shoe covering to a pair of slippers I stole- *cough* /borrowed/ from my folks. Well, they were that kind of slippers you get from spas for couple of euros so not so bad? :'D

Saturday
Oh my f-ing goodness I held a lecture! I was so happy when they took me in with my DMMd-lecture and had practiced it couple of times beforehand. Then my laptop run out of battery before we could even get started, and of course we had to wait for a while for a new computer. Fortunately it did run my PowerPoint file from a memory stick so I didn't have to perform without any support. I think it went quite well despite all that hardship, at least I got some praising afterwards~
I held the lecture dresser up as Tae, and later I switched to Eren. Yes, I made it in time. It was a pain in the ass to put it on, though. My straps didn't want to stay whete they were supposed to stay, so I had to actually sew them in my pants XD On top of that, I hadn't eaten properly since morning (and my breakfast wasn't that good either), so I was really grumpy in the dressing room. I almost feel bad for the people who were there and had to hear all my ranting and swearing and frustrated sounds I made sewing those little devils to their place...
But I got it on! Anae-chan was cosplaying as Levi (with 3D maneuver gear which was awesooooome) and YamiAeris as Mikasa, and we had some great time~
Later we had a little photoshoot with my Eren ans YamiAeris' Mikasa, I'm looking forward to getting the photos so I can post some It was the first proper photoshoot I've done in ages with such a little group and guidance, thanks for all that!

Sunday
Last con day and I didn't feel like putting any costume on. I did take my Noiz's hat with me though. We had had some pizza the former evening and I felt so appropriate eating the leftovers just outside the con building with my hat on, drinking water from a light green bottle with floral design XD
Because Saturday had been so hectic this was the first chance to check the stalls. I had thought that I'd buy the newest volumes of No.6 there. They were sold out. Just my luck.
Anae-chan and YamiAeris had child Lavi and Lavi's 2nd uniform (still fangirling a bit maybe? :'D) and I got to play a little with Lavi's huge hammer. Just because multi-fandomness rules XD
Just before the con was over I found a Noiz cosplayer with Aoba and went to say hi. It appeared to be that she was nukkelapsi and we were actually on the same bus and I had adored this Noiz' bunny cubes earlier :'D (Congrats on your 3rd place once again!) We then had a whole lot of (crack) fun with Spitaalinen and couple of others on our way back to Helsinki.

Thanks for all you wonderful people I met again! I got myself in couple of DMMd cosplay groups, too :'D I can't wait to finish my fem!Noiz and wear it~
