This is going to be a long journal, lol
FURRY FIESTA 2012amg it was SOOO FUN you guys.
Like, this was my first furry convention and I didn't know much about them
but I loved it more than an anime con. like, I like to buy anime merchandise, but the people here were so much more fun and the dance was less stupid and all the suits were SO CUTE!! All of the artists were super sweet and I loved all the ears and tails and artwork that was for sale! I didn't buy a lot but I did love everything I bought! IF YOU WANT TO SEE PICTURES, they will be uploaded to blue.thunder during the course of this week (I say that because not all the pictures were on my camera). This was is first furry con and full-suit con and it was nothing less and amazing! TOO MUCH FUN and too little sleep.
I loved hanging out with people! I was mainly with these guys:




I also got to see other peeps that I knew including kigabat, melkiah, and pawz2010 ♥
People were beyond easy to talk to, there was no one who you felt like it would be too weird to hang out with them. I met a lot of new people, it was so nice! ;v; Especially with some people where it was like OH MY GOD IS THIS REAL LIFE? I'VE ONLY SEEN YOU IN VIDEOSSSSSSS!!
I got to meet
kwik and her friend
zoomba who were, to put very lightly, WONDERFUL DANCERS! They were super nice and easy to talk to n dance with u w u Seriously, it was so cool to see these dancers in person.I also got to buy some portfolios from the Fur Planet table! I got the pretty one by tsampikos and I bought some novels, two of which were signed by the author and by the cover artists: blotch
The
blotch team is SOOO NICE like. you'd think you would be intimidated since they are so popular and produce such lovely work but they are so amazingly sweet! Like, you wouldn't believe ;v; their art is wonderful and honestly I appreciate their work even with it's porn. so nice. ♥My fan got busted over the weekend but lucky for me
flurrycat and
ciaradragon (the creators of DreamVision Creations, the ones who made the fan) were at the con and replaced it for me free of charge! I also got to buy some materials for the fursuit I'm currently building!! ;v; I got some hand pawpads and a nose for my head and they are the perfect sizes (just checked!) and now I don't have to wait!! I still need to buy a fan from them and some claws though, but I thought I'd just buy it later since I wanted to waste my money on furry porn. Overall it was super amazing ♥ Here's some of the swag I obtained:
(note me if interested, links are broken sob)
IF YOU FIND ANY PICTURES OF ME, please send them!! I would love to see them all! OuO
Thank you all who commissioned me, I wouldn't have been able to buy all this fun stuff if it were not for all of you! YOU REALLY MADE MY WEEKEND ;0; ♥♥♥ kissu kissu
YAY! Someone got me dancing
it's hard to see though because it was so dark and yeah. flashy lights.
that and it's harder to see suits that aren't white. you can see my gloves though!
BUT it was really fun. I may enter the dance competition if there is one at Megaplex ;3;
I didn't enter this year because I would have been too nervous and because I wanted to start driving back home before it was too late.
Maybe I'll make a fursuit dance vid for you guys hurrr. I can't be embarrassed if you can see my FACE.

And this one....well I'm just all up in this one thanks to seamen (white dog)
MEGAPLEX 2012AAAH I had SO MUCH fun!
It was smaller than I expected, but I still feel like I got a lot out of it and that was exciting ;w;
THURSDAY
Met up with caffineman007 at the airport and after dropping off our shit, we went to Downtown Disney ♥ Unfortunately that means we missed fursuit bowling, which was a little sad because I kind of wanted to kick it off that way, but hey. DOWNTOWN DISNEY. We also were 30 minutes late to early registration, which was gaaay but that's fine. We went to look at the dance and there was like....four people LOL. So we didn't do that. I also started marking up my schedule wooo.
FRIDAY
This was more exciting, lots of cutie suits. I fell in love with the fursuit lounge, like oh my god, it was huge and fuckin freezing constantly. Met a lot of cool bros including:
who will be my roomie at SCAD,
who is the kawaiiest,
and
who had absolutely adorable suits,
who is a total bro, and a lot of other cuties including Novamonster, zoomba, EverestJerusalem, ect ect.I also opened for commissions briefly, but business was hard to come by. Luckily, I still had the honor of drawing something cute for EverestJerusalem :3 Thank you so much for being my only commissioner! xD I did get to buy three commissions though, one from quaggy, one from tartii plus a husky pride badge, and then a badge from guggles ♥ I loved all of it!
I also got to do the Megaplex photoshoot stuff so I have a cute print of me jumping and a badge of my fursuit!
Once all the 2012 photos are up, I'll post them on my fursuit account~
The pool party was hella fun, I loved seeing the big inflatable dog and playing with the rainbow mellon even though I got my hair wet which i said I wouldn't do. I felt toasty just watching all the people dancing in fursuits OUTSIDE IN THE HUMID FLORIDA WEATHER, OH MY GOD. And then music and cake and fursuit limbo, which doesn't work because people have muzzles. oh, and chocolate cake ♥
The dance was a little weak again this night, so I didn't really go, woops.
Also, lots of Puerto Ricans in the lobby who were mind-blown by all the furries. hur.
SATURDAY
Blaaaah by far the funnest day!
It was impossible to get an artist alley table this day, but that was fine because I didn't feel like sitting around doing commissions when I could walk round in my suit. This was also the morning for the fursuit parade, which you can find several videos of on Youtube (I'll upload mine later, I'm a little too lazy right now since that one will be long)
DANCE COMPETITION
Okay, so this was EXTREMELY FUN, I've never been in a dance competition before so this was new and exciting and everyone's so nice and out to have fun so it doesn't really feel like you're competing with others ♥ I loved that so much~ Even if you don't win, it's so much fun to dance up there! Below I have a link to each fursuit dancer, which others as well as I have also uploaded!

And then after all of this, we went out to get eat at IHOP. I was also staaarrrvving after the dance.
Which is kind of funny because right after stuffing my face I came back to dance some more because
was DJing and I love his DJing ;; ♥This was followed by me taking the god of all showers and then watching the Olympics.
SUNDAY
Went to Universal Studios, was fun ; w ; got to try butter beer in Harry Potter World, aaah ♥
stuff happened, fun ensued, ate Golden Corral, things are gr8.
Ended night with more Olympics.
MONDAY
Was miserable. got up at 4 AM since our flight was at like.....7:30 AM.
I got home around 9 AM though so I had the whole day.....though I took a nap until 1. so not really.
Can't wait for FWA 2013
