MFF2015: Let's look back
10 years ago
I'm back from MFF and I would say this trip was better than last year cause I actually talked to people! How amazing is that?? So, time to just look back a bit and see what kind of stuff I managed to get myself into, and the obvious thank yous to people who made this con good!
First of all, thanks to Sambers and darkdibblez who took me to a breakfast at Denny's that I will NEVER forget because holy cow, that breakfast tho! Also my ever so kind roomies at the con, sorry I didn't speak more Norwegian to you. I forgot. I have been in the UK too long, my viking is fading.
So yeah, I had a bit more of an American experience this con as I ACTUALLY went outside the hotel and ate. We also went to the shopping mall, and I am so jelly of the stores there. I'm still sad about that amazing shirt that was just too expensive, and still laughing my ass off at the friggin leopard spotted rain coat at the price of $500. At least I went home with some bracelets. Lets see if I ever use them.
So, to the actual con then!
As last year I suited a lot, cause I seriously don't know what else to do. Only attended dancing panels cause I was too lazy for the other things I had on my list.
Thursday I was just randomly suiting. Tried joining the dance that day, but jet lag hit me hard, so I went to bed really early.
Friday was a bit more busy. Started with the amazing breakfast that was an experience for sure. That breakfast lasted for the whole darn day! The Phoenixwolf photoshoot was this day, and it was cool meeting up with the PW family. While we were waiting someone had brought a speaker and was playing music and the music was good. I met some cool people this day. Thank you cool people for being cool! After the photoshoot I went over to the dance workshop. I had no idea what was gonna go down there, but I figured I would check it out. Since it was choreo learning I was a bit too warm and tired to do that in suit, so instead I sat down and talked to more cool people! Can you see this trend that there was a bunch of cool people? XD So, another experience happened here, cause I did a thing that made my handpaws fly off and MAGICALLY one of them managed to end up covered in yogurt.... How I managed to successfully do this I have no idea. Why was there yogurt there?? Anyways, the ever so kind Blue (FA username unknown, I just remember the name Blue) helped me get that paw washed, so thanks again for that! If you ever read this that is. After that little incident though, I had to get out of suit so I could dry that soaked paw. It ended up being drying con on the bedroom floor with a hairdryer. Suited up again for the kpop panel that sadly was canceled (but still had a little random dance off with a girl there, thanks for that), and I continued to suit for quite some time. Tried going to the dance, but the music didn't work for me, so I just strolled around and did my ratty thing.
Saturay might have been the best day? I tried to save as much energy as I could this day because the lineup for the dance seemed pretty good. Not only that, but the Floor Wars was this day! Suited up an hour before that to sit in line, ended up getting a front row seat with Zuthilios. All the dancers were amazing. Had so much fun cheering for them all even though it made my throat hurt x) Just the energy level at these dance panels are so awesome, it's really different from EF. I'm happy to have experienced it and been a part of that energy! After the Floor Wars I suited around again, and I got a party hat from Kittiara that ended up on HD's nose, so he got to be a rhino.Sadly the party hat disappeared at some point oMo Now we get to the dance. 4 hours of amazing music, I did not want to leave the dance floor for a minute! Met more amazing and cool people here like AeroSocks, SkiaSkai and Doryuu + more people I didn't get the name of. But thanks to you guys that dance was the best thing ever and I had so much fun! At the end I had to run back to my room cause I was so exhausted and dehydrated that it felt like I was close to hitting the floor, but it was worth it <33
Sunday was the day of exhaustion. I was so tired and had so little energy to go off. I did suit for the dance comp, though I almost fell asleep while in the queue, but Kitchiki's lap was comfy, so I blame her and not my own tiredness. The dance comp this year was even more insane than last time. It's really inspiring to watch and actually seeing groups perform is awesome! After this I think I was just being lazy in my room for a while, then I had some of that deep dish pizza (experience, wow), then it was a last suit up for the evening. I was still exhausted so I didn't really dance much. Instead I just ended up watching the dance battles in the hallway and chilling with people there pretending not to be a shy little butterfly. Everyone is just so good at dancing, I wish I was brave enough to try and join. But watching was nice. I did manage to dance a little bit at the dance though in the end. At one point the song I danced to in my EF dance comp was played and it boosted my energy a bit :3 I wish dancing wasn't so energy draining! omo
So, con was over, Monday was the day to go home. Got to say buy to people I could find. Usually I have some real bad luck finding people at cons that I want to say bye to, but at least this time I will consider myself lucky! Went to the shopping mall with Masada, Rahnt and TayaLu (was it? sorry if I'm wrong, and sorry if I'm right for questioning it XD). Hot topic dude, and all those clothes stores. I wish I had money to spend, cause I wanted to buy so much stuff. After this it was just.. waiting at the hotel. It sure was interesting. Whistling happened. It was hilarious.
So, this con started out kind of dull and I was afraid it would be as lonely as last year. Luckily I met so many people that spent their time with me. Anyone who talked to me in and out of suit, thank you so much! Anyone who came over to compliment my suit, thank you so much! Anyone who literally took time out of their day to just say hi to me, thank you so much! There are many memories I hope I will never forget from this con. The awesome dances, the people, the friggin yogurt (it was a drag, but it was kind'a funny too), and I think I had my favorite hug at this con!
Some awesome people I met at this con (sadly I can't remember everyone, or know the username of everyone):
and
I will always support your ankles!
and
were the best travel partners, may you get that tetris high score soon, Kitchiki!
Even though we quarreled every time we met in suit, it was really fun meeting you! I guess butterfly dragons and rats just don't go well together.
,
and
Awesome dancing with awesome people. Can't thank you enough for making that night the best thing ever!
Next time we need to suit together, but at least I got to see your pretty face again!
I'm so happy I met you! Aaaaaaaah!! And again, I may lack a username but I shall forever thank Blue for being a great person, it was always fun talking to you! Be careful of that yogurt tho, its evil!
I think I'm done, dayum this was long. Anyone who actually reads through this deserves a cookie and a hug.
STAY AWESOME \ o /

The problem is money, as I don't really have much of it.
And do you remember what species this mysterious Mr "Blue" was?
And I can't really say I'm 100% sure, but some form of canine? XD
I can imagine! x3
