The end of AC and some decisions need to be made.
12 years ago
Well Anthrocon did come and go much more rapidly this year for me dispite coming a day earlier then usual, and not sure why. The hours seem to be moving more rapidly then I remember unfortently and just kind of aggrovates me. Dispite of course attempting to spend time with people, it will always be diffacult in a convention of this many furrys. I certainly fursuits more this year then previous, and honestly it was so goddam hot that I am suprised I didn't pass out.
I drove down with
Sasuke and roomed with 
Matchwood, his mate, and 
jouva. Unfortunately there is a large amount of unnecessary tension in the room due to general messiness among other issues and things didn't go well as planned. I honestly will probably change some things in the future as the arguing that happened I was not happy dealing with and I feel some relationships may change due to the problems that happened.
Of course I mentioned I suited alot, did my best to try to keep the suits smelling decent with all the sweating due to the excessive heat, which honestly you could only do so much about. I also want to find out more about those hanger fans so the body's can drive more extensively. I had some issues with the vision with my new partial which is a raccoon with LED eyes, whiskers and claws which hopefully they will be resolved soon. I met up with a enough people, usually brief as expected, and got to spend extra time with a few special people.
I did managed to drink a decent amount on Friday at a room as I played a that "cards against humanity" game, which I suck at. I spent Saterday night pretty much drinking and dancing at that Images bar with a group of friends in fursuit, ended up getting picked up with Sasuke by a bunch of mundanes and taken to a 24 hour food bar after the Images closed, granted still drunk.
I didn't make it to any panels this year or get to see any performances unfortunately and missed out on that dance video due to not enough practice time. About all I manged to do was the rather unexciting fursuit games. I went to the dealers dun a few times and pretty much only picked up one thing which a friend asked for.
Of course I always appreciate seeing photos of myself, and always could use a bit of help in improving how to interact in suit as for me it's always a learning experience. I always seem to go home a bit disappointed of things I didn't do at this convention, every-time I go for the last 10 years.
I also need to decide on a different note, if I should go for certification training and get proper certifications for network security, administration, management, and sever and routing database work, or just go for a bachelors degree in computer science with a heavy lean in networking, or something along those lines. Downside is I need to maintain working pretty much full-time to handle bills and can't go any location too far away. I can get finacial aid and aid from a few other organizations.
Well signing off for now.

Sometimes I think that I would enjoy vacation more if I spent the time at a resort somewhere on a beach vs at a convention; there's not much resting at cons! Maybe I'm getting old or something ;)
As far as the pursuit of knowledge goes, I would strongly suggest that you get proper certifications and lots of on the job experience during schooling; just a general computer science degree these days isn't enough to get a job worthy of justifying the student debt you'll incur and most jobs worth it want lots of years of experience (5 to 10+) At least that is what my mate experienced when he came out of college and he majored in I.T. management, it took him quite a long time to get a job in the field and most of the time it was because of lacking 5-10 years of professional experience.
