/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

I had a blast. I had not been to Akon since Akon 21 and I remember leaving it thinking anime conventions were on their way out as it seemed that attendance peaked and then started going down every year. This year it was huge and I loved seeing that. I was drunk from the moment I walked into the con till the moment I left. Met some cool people. I felt like a kid again at the first con I went to when I was like 14. Rave was total trash as the music was not good and it was WAY too quite. I should not be able to talk to people so easily in the rave. More drugs being available would have been appreciated. The DJ was a dick I actually met him as we were wondering the hallways looking for people the party with and we ran into him. I said good job "even though I thought he sucked" and he just gave me the most dick look. The hotel was super nice and having the park was such a plus as we just danced and partied outside on Friday till like 4 in the morning. I really didnt make it to the panels so I could not really give an opinion on that. I was on the 11th floor so I was taking the stairs the whole weekend so I feel sorry for you guys that you were on higher floors. I dont know what the con or hotel could do to help with that, but some of you people stand a nice walk up and down the stairs. Parking was shit. Lack of food was rough until I found out there was food trucks. I actually really liked the bar, made some good mojitos. They were dicks Saturday cutting everyone off at 130. I thought there were some great costumes. Anime Hell was hysterical and some how I ended up in the Hard Gay competition(which I think I should have won but w.e. it was fun) and that was something I had never done before. So I give it a 9/10 the only thing that could have made it better for me was getting there Thursday and leaving monday to cure my hangover and hopefully had rolled my balls off at some point. I met some great people and went with some great people so maybe that is what made it all.
