So 1st! I forgot to write a Phoenix ComiCon 2013 review! So here it is!
Thursday May 23rd, preview day: My friend Belen and I got there like around 6:40 pm, pretty late, but we had school that day, so it couldn't be helped. When my dad dropped us off at the convention center we rushed to registration because they closed at 7. Luckily we got there in time, gave them our pre-reg tickets and they gave us our badges, then we ran to the exhibitors hall! We roamed around for a while, just looking at all the amazing things, and hating the fact that we didn't have any money. When we were at some super hero clothing booth, I saw Cosplay In America!!! I was SOOO HAPPY! I actually fangirled!! I NEVER thought I would fangirl for anyone! But I just couldn't believe he was RIGHT THERE!! IN FRONT OF ME!! But stupid me didn't grow the balls to actually go up and say "Hi" and I completely regret it! But I was in normal clothing, and idk, I feel more secure in cosplay than in normal clothing, and I just, idk, I'm dumb ok? I honestly thought that I was going to be able to find him another day, while I was in cosplay, but I didn't D: And that was about it for Thursday,
Friday May 24th, Day1: Unfortunately, we didn't get to the con in time, we got there right when they were closing. It was very nostalgic because last year, the same thing happened, and on a Friday too. Anyway, I was dressed as Miku Hatsune ver. Saihate and Belen was dressed as Sailor Mercury. Was walked around, heading no where in particular. Belen was really popular with the camera! Like seriously! I wasn't AT ALL, but that's because everyone is tired of Miku cosplays I guess.... but what made me really happy was when people will tell Belen that her cosplay costume was great, why? well because I MADE THAT WITH MY OWN TWO HANDS!!! Made me really proud of my work, even though it isn't the best cosplay in the world. Anyway... we got to see the Zombie walk. Sadly we missed the beginning, but honestly, last years zombie walk was so much batter. After that we walked around, went to Burger King (because it was the only place we could afford) and bought a Frappe, and then left.

Saturday May 25th, Day2: We got to the convention center at around 11pm, a bit later than I would of hoped, but, it couldn't be helped. Belen was dressed as Sailor Mercury again, and me as Usagi Tsukino ver. school uniform. The good thing about arriving at the time we did was that we weren't there when it was so incredibly crowded in the Exhibitor hall that staff had to start traffic patrol to get people to move. I HATE crowds, and even though I am 3 years older than Belen, I was holding on to her like a little girl, which only worsened the fact that Belen looked older than me, because she is also much taller than me, haha! Anyway, we got to the booth I was looking for, and bought my brother his birthday present there. It was a little Saber figurine! (I'm so glad he liked it! :D) Afterwards we kept walking around the convention and took some photos of some amazing cosplayers! Belen also was able to find a Captain America print that she could afford! We stayed at the Exhibitor Hall for hours, and then we went to go eat at Burger King, once again. We were so tired that we stayed there for quite some time, resting our feet up until the Masquerade started. When we were heading back to the convention center, we came across some very awesome people. When we were crossing this really small street that divides the convention center into two buildings, there was a family on the other side that were screaming and shouting and jumping around, and at first we didn't know they were looking at us! But when we got to the other side, they came up to us, all so happy, and I honestly didn't know how to react, and I know that Belen didn't either. Turns out that the MOM of the family is a HUGE fan of Sailor Moon and had seen us before roaming around, but from a distance, and when they tried to get to us, we were gone. So they told us that they were literally looking for us and asking around for around two hours! But MAN! You guys should of seen the expression in their faces, mostly the mom! My God! It was priceless! She also told us how she named her daughter Serena, after Princess Serenity, and her son Damion, after, well... Damion (which btw he was so embarrassed, and he was saying how he wasn't related to them, it was so cute! :3). It felt almost like they thought I was the real Serena! It was crazy! By FAR the best experience of my life! They took pictures of us and then we went our own separate ways.We finally made it to the Masquerade, a tad bit late, but just in time before all the good stuff happened. It was really great! I had a lot of fun seeing all the amazing costumes up on stage! After that we headed to the light rail and went home.

Sunday May 26th, Day3: We, again got there a bit late, like at 11:30am. We were both wearing the same costumes as the previous day. We went straight to the Exhibitor hall again, but didn't have much money, but I did manage to get the $15 I needed to but this Sailor Moon print I REALLY wanted, and I did! :3 With the money I had left over, I also bought a $5 Sakura Card Captor print, and so did Belen. So that makes a total of 2 prints for both Belen and I! For several hours, we walked around, and took pictures, as well as us being photographed. (which I forgot to mention, but both Saturday and Sunday, we were very popular ^^) Then, we went to the 2nd building of the convention and I mainly took pics if Belen in her Sailor Moon cosplay. Afterwards, we went to a Paranormal Panel, and right when it was about to end, the fire alarm started! So EVERYONE had to evacuate the building, and wait outside until further notice.We waited for about half and hour, then we got the ok to go back in, but right when we were going back in, they were starting to kick anyone who wasn't a staff or exhibitor member out, which everyone was pretty pissed off about, but I understand why they did it. They did it because there was only 30 mins of the convention left, and since there were so many people, there was really no reason to go back, since right when everyone would get back in, it would be time for everyone to leave (I hope that made sense). Lastly, we went to Burger Kings and used my last coupon (yes, I had been using coupons, OK? Don't judge! I'm poor!! D:) Then, at around 5:30/ 6 pm we went to the light rail, and the con was over!! TT^TT
Some Pics I took on Sunday!

I really do miss the con, it was really fun although we didnt make any con friends because we are loners, lol, more like socially awkward :'D But we had fun just us together! :3
From the convention, nothing else has really happened. That is well, fun...
A couple of weeks ago, I found out that my best guy friend, got her 14 year old girlfriend pregnant (he's 17) When I i found out, I - I... cried. It might sound ridiculous, considering I really don't have any feeling for him, other than a brother, but I cried mainly because I was, and still am really disappointed in him, and my view of him was totally destroyed. You might be thinking "Well Analy, that happens a lot! And what do you mean by your view of him was destroyed?" Well allow me to explain...
He was suppose to be a Christian (FYI I'm a Christian too) and so is his little girlfriend! And I mean! COME ON! You guys aren't even suppose to be having sex!! UGGHH!! It really pisses me off when he says "Things happen" because that's just as stupid as saying YOLO. It's not an excuse! That doesn't cover up your stupidity!!! Things happen because YOU LET THEM FREAKING HAPPEN!!! I am clearly still not over it, and I don't know when I will be able to see his face again or even talk to him... I knew he was stupid, but, NOT THIS STUPID! I mean, if you're going to have premarital sex, AT LEAST WEAR A CONDOM!! JESUS!
I don't hate him, I will never be able to hate him, but I'm just so disappointed, and I simply can't believe it... I really miss the old days... you have no idea. I miss when we use to practice Shuffeling and Jumpstyle together... When my brother and I would go to his house after school to wait for my mom there. When we would hang out with no problem, with no drama... I mainly miss everything... It's like I lost a brother...and I mean, I already lost another friend that was like a sister to me (we still talk, but it isn't the same...) and that hurt,
If you have lasted this long, I really admire you! You were able to read ALL OF THAT BORING RANT!!! Congrats~!
Anyway, that's all for now!
