No more counting down. We leave for con tomorrow. Day zero isn't an official day of the con but for us its always a fun day. But before we leave there is a lot to do today. We have to go buy our food and drinks, wash last minute clothing, figure out where the shoes and wigs are going, pack up the last few personal items that are wondering around the house, ink the trivia cards, make a playlist for the car rid and the panel. Have my fiance clean the fish tank. And more.
These are the notecards with the trivia questions. I wrote the down in pencil and are writing over them in pen so they are all color coated for each character. I hope everyone can read my hand writing. I wanted to make them neat and orderly so it would be easy to pass them around instead of having them read them off my Kindle.
We also have to go through all our garment bags and check our cosplays, making sure everything is packed where it should be. Then go through our check list. Tomorrow, which I doubt I'll sleep much tonight, we'll get up early, pack, go over the check list again, pack up the last few things that I still have to use until that morning and start loading it all into the car. Then leave. We're hoping we'll be there by 1:00pm or sooner so we can check in and iron the costumes, set up the wigs and get the food into the fridge before we head out to meet up with the other people in the Pandora Hearts panel.
I cannot wait. There was bad news yesterday. But we are both being positive and are looking forward to the con. When we get back we both will be trying extra, EXTRA hard to find stable jobs. We are more determined then ever. Last night my fiance and I were out back when he found two four leaf clovers. Maybe our luck is changing. We hope the bad news is a blessing not a curse. But taking a break from reality will be nice. This con means a lot to both of us. It was the first con we cosplayed at. It's home. We really can't wait to see our friends and cosplay with them.
So this is my last post until we come back on Monday. I hope you guys have a great weekend. I know I will. Learn something from me, if times are tough, stay positive. Focus on the future, keep your head up and please don't look down on yourself. Keep moving forward.
Any who, Wish me luck! It's going to be a weekend to remember.
