long overdue: post Bowling Furmeet report!
11 years ago
General
i cant believe i didnt make a journal about this sooner!
i've been to the NE furs CT bowling meet once before. it was fun, but without a fursuit at the time, and not knowing many people, it was a little less than awesome.
this time: complete opposite! some more people i already knew were there this time, and i feel like i was able to warm up to a lot more people, both newly met and ones i've seen around the local meets. which is just what i needed right about now. :3
HAVE SOME VIDYA! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EpWyc4qrMhc
it was made even more special by Valdor Fox http://www.furaffinity.net/user/valdorfox/, who was recording video for the meet. I'm rather unaccustomed to being the guy in front of the camera, but he gave me a fair amount of camera time and a chance to see how i look in motion in suit. which really helps me learn what i'm doing right and wrong in suit in the way of gesturing and emoting. i'm starting to learn, but from what i saw i've got quite a ways to go, and i still do a lot of things wrong.
the bowling itself:
i impressed myself on this one. i do have a bit of experience in bowling, i played in a league once or twice several years back, and ive got a basic bowling ball and a pair of shoes to show for it. nothing special though. my normal average is about 135.
but i've never thrown a ball with a fursuit head and tail and gloves on. o.o
but, well, my first ever throw in fursuit was a perfect strike xD the fingers of the gloves still fit my ball, so i went with it!
i was pretty pleased and surprised to see i had done better than the non suiters by the end xD, got a 144, and i dont remember the second, something in the 120's
