Since everyone who's going, whether they're there to mingle or sell their souls in the Artist Alley, has been posting journals and seeing who of their watchers/friends are going to be there, I've gotten really excited! This will be my first BIG convention (I went to AnimeNEXT last year for a day), and I'm slowly getting more and more excited as the date gets closer.

My group of friends and I are staying in a hotel in the general vicinity of the center, that way we only have to walk, and we're also going down a day earlier to enjoy Baltimore and what not.

While I'm there, I won't be dressing up, but I'll be a walking advertisement for some of my favorite DA artists and friends who cannot make it due to, well, living across the country.

One of the days I will be wearing my Gin Ichimaru shirt that made for me last year. People at AnimeNEXT LOVED the shirt, especially all of my fellow Gin fans, haha. I'm pretty sure that Cynthia will actually be there, but as to whether she'll be in the Artist's Alley or not, I have no idea.

And all three days I will be walking around carrying merchandise and business cards for my friend who lives on the West Coast and REALLY can't get there, haha. He makes charms and necklaces, and a lot of people would rather see the merch. in person before actually investing in it or buying it so I'll be modeling his jewelery for him as well as handing out business cards to those who are interested, or just like what I'm wearing and want to see what else he's got.

Anyways, anyone who is going, let me know! And if you're going to be in the Artist Alley, comment my journal and tell me so I can check out what you'll be selling beforehand. I know I'll definitely be getting one or two of 's MoonBuns. So cute.
