My First Con! ;o

Helluuuhhh,
I, as usual, haven't been on top of things hence lack of posts buuuut I do have many things to write about! I've also got lots of new experiences to write about and projects coming up to consume my time!


So, last Saturday I attended MCM Expo at the Excel Centre in London and it was quite an interesting experience! Sadly, due to certain circumstances that I ended up in, I would have to say that my perception of conventions have now been changed, however I'm trying to treat my recent experience as a one-off. It certainly hasn't put me off of going to conventions in the future!
I won't go into detail but let me just put the words: 'unwanted company' out there.


The day was probably also a little harder to get through than I expected due to getting a couple of hours sleep the night before and then waking at around 4.30/5AM in order to get my make-up looking perfect. The 1.5 hour journey there and back may also have taken a toll.


Regardless of these negatives, the atmosphere and sheer positivity was enough to make my first con really enjoyable! Everything was so lively and I really felt as though I was with hundreds of people who, 'are my people' as it were. Although, I had a loads of fun going round the stalls and getting some really awesome stuff, the outside area of the convention was by far my favourite part. Seeing all the cosplayers and their creations was inspiring and has influenced me with ideas for my next cosplays! There'll probably be some news coming up about that soon!


We didn't actually stay there particularly long because after about 4 hours we were all looking half asleep - note: I went with 8 others hence the 'we'.


I know this wasn't a particularly long post - even I expected it to be longer. Also, apologies for the lack of pictures. It didn't really occur to me when I was actually there to take pictures. I have one of two on my phone, I believe.


Although I won't be going to MCM in May, I will most certainly be going in October! c;


I'll post soon!
