evanae | Fanime Con Report

This year's Fanime was kinda eh to me. I didn't get to party as much as I would've liked. It was odd to not bump into someone I know every five feet. But I did get to hang out with people I don't normally hang out with! Most plans were either rushed or fell through. Cosplaying was somewhat not as fulfilling as usual for some reason. I wore about half of what I brought, lol. Then there was lack of photoshoots and of me being the wannabe photographer. But there were some highlights, including BEST IN SHOW and random silly moments with friends. :]

FRIDAY:
- Hella late to con. ♥ to

random_karen for being my carpool partner.
- MADE IT FROM LA TO SJ ON ONE TANK OF GAS. WAT. Okay, maybe I should give Knives some credit. She is a new car, but I was expecting to have to refuel at least once. I guess not!
- I love cruise control. Why did I never use it until now? I've been missing out!
- Go to Target for button-up vest > come out with whiskey and coke. Alright.

- Kimi running AROUND my car right when we stopped. Me: /jaw dropped, eyes following her
- Thank god for Karen reading my Twitter outta boredom and finding

hybrid_twist's suggestion of using a detour to avoid those two construction zones. But going 25 miles due east before going south again was still kinda ew.
- AHHHH @ two cars who tried to surpass other cars in their own lane by coming into ours and barely making it back in. @___@
- On the road for 7 hours. /ded Used less gas coming down than going up. I guess not using a/c makes a pretty big difference...

So disgruntled. XD
