Further Confusion 2013
13 years ago
I'm goin!
I refuse to do those stupid questions that usually float around for the convention memes, so here's some of my own:
1) What time are you arriving?
I believe I'll be at the con center sometime early Thursday morning around 10:30-11:00.
2) Who are you rooming with?
Nixx
Kartonis
Fumei
Should be good times! <3
3) Where are you staying?
At the Hilton.
4) What specific plans do you have?
Aside from attending the ADP again this year, I don't tend to make specific plans because they're often too hard to keep. Hunger strikes at odd times and social get-togethers often spring up out of nowhere.
5) Do you go to room parties?
Not specifically arranged ones, no. Unless I'm dragged there. Usually I'll be floating around the rooms of people I know and socializing there.
6) Do you drink?
Yep! Though I don't drink just anything. If I can taste the alcohol in the drink I probably wont like it. That said, ciders, beers, and some mixed drinks are fair game. Whiskey, wine, and higher alc % are not.
Now for the questions for those who may not know me and want to say hello/hi and/or get to know me.
7) Are you approachable?
I'd like to think I am, but I could understand how some may perceive me as hard to talk to. I don't usually float around by myself or look for new people to talk to unless I recognize them. For best results, maybe drop a message here so I can at least know (and try to remember) your name. PS: I'm really bad with names. If I see you, or if you see me, I'll at least know why you're approaching me!
8) Will you do something in my sketchbook (paid/request/etc)
One day I hope to learn to draw better in sketchbooks, but right now, I'm pretty uncomfortable with it. Last few times I've tried, I simply ended up erasing everything so.. unless you want eraser smears in your sketchbook, I'd suggest you ask someone else!
9) Can I tag along to your social gatherings/parties/food goings?
This one is always a hard one for me. I don't like to say no but unless you know me/my friends beyond idle small talk, or have been invited, please don't try to invite yourself. Use common courtesy and judgement.
If someone says:
"We were just heading off for food."
You can suggest:
"Hm, I should probably think about getting something to eat too."
And you don't get invited along - don't push the issue. Simple as that.
10) Where can I find you?
Thats another tricky one as I tend to float around everywhere. If you attend the ADP, thats likely the best surefire way to find me. I tend to stick around there after the panel is over to have a chat with folks. Other than that, just keep an eye out! I usually wear badges. I'm also a skinny redhead with a beard. Hard to miss.
And finally,
11) When do you leave?
6 AM Monday morning. That's not going to be a fun morning. I'll try to say my goodbyes Sunday night!
I think that's about it! See you there c:
