Well, this is bit late, but I still have to tell all the fun of Colossal Con 8. Though for those who were there, they don't need me to tell them that. I attended the event with :iconrayvinloire: :iconthedivinemissh: and :IllusionJ: and we had a blast....mostly. There were a few things I could've lived without like the stalking crazy girl who thought she was Roy Mustang in a Mini-skirt (I even made a comic about it), and the people that decided to forgo bathing....Please, there is no excuse to not bathe....EVER!

The voice actors I was able to meet were Vic Mignogna, who is a very cool guy. He truly loves his fans and coming to anime conventions to meet them. Aaron Dismuke, Laura Bailey, Travis Willingham, and Brad Swaile. I felt sorry for Vic, Aaron, Laura, and Travis at the Fullmetal Alchemist panel for having to endure the singing and overall creepiness of a certain boy dressed a member of the vampire knight night class (I also did a comic of it as well) and the endless, stupid non-questions from rabid fangirls. I was hoping to hear some decent questions, so I can get some interesting perspective on what it was like to work on such a massive voice-over project, but alas....all I got to hear were people asking them to do their most popular lines a million times and other stupidities...:tears: Maybe next year.

I also entered the karaoke contest on the first day, and made it to the finals singing Ayumi Hamasaki's Mirrorcle World, but due to being tired the next day and also suffered from some...um...digestive issues, I decided not to compete in the finals, which was fine. I wasn't really too interested in winning. I just wanted to play and sing. Maybe I might compete more seriously next year and also schedule off the appropriate amount of vacation days, since I obviously underestimated my body's exhaustion.

My favorite booth had to have been the Chibi-Buddies green screen photography booth. They were so cool, and the pictures they took came out beautifully. I'll make sure that next year, if they attend next year's convention to bring more money for prints. There were a few Chidori shots that I wanted, but couldn't afford due to money restraints....:( I need to prepare and think of more costumes. I think, if I manage to get in better shape, would like to cosplay as Armitage. She was one of my favorite anime characters, and the series is highly under-rated. Chibi-buddies' url is [link]
