(Looong Overdue) FWA Con Report.
11 years ago
Welp, I needed to get through this week of school so I could give a proper con report. So here ya go~
Thursday Afternoon
Got up around 10, did some last minute packing and then headed over to
's house around 12. Has some minor difficulties and last minute annoyances, but it was all sorted out.
had already made it over there and the three of us hung around while waiting for
who soon showed up with his friend Markus. After that, we loaded on up and headed out about 12:30-1:00. The car ride was hilarious, oh my god I had not laughed so hard in awhile my sides hurt so bad xD After about 4 hours of driving, we arrived in Charlotte and picked up Markus's friend, Vanessa. Then we were officially off! We soon entered South Carolina for food and then we were back on the road again. Around 7:00 (I think?) We had landed in Georgia and soon headed in Atlanta. I'm not use to big city stuff, so it was a beautiful sight to see. Being my first con, I was so excited to see furries start appearing around the Westin, and immediately spotted some that I knew. We soon got a bellhop, got checked in and headed up to our room. While waiting at the elevators, the first person I recognized
who squealed of joy when she found out who I was xD We got up to the room, unpacked and suited up. I ran into
who I had been wanting to meet for awhile~ I ran into some other peeps (who I sadly can't remember atm D:) and pretty soon I hunted out
who I was very excited to meet <3 Miranda, Kewlie and I then decided to take a break and desuited in the room. I headed back out quicker than them and met up with
who was super duper cool. I also met
and found
and ran into
and
again <3 I hung out with Williamca for a bit, I got to meet
, tmain and enjoipandas. I walked around for a bit more then decided to desuit again. After a short break, me, Kewlie and Miranda headed down to dance. We were up for awhile, then headed to bed when it was over.
Friday
Me and my girls got up and suited around for a bit before we ran into pixelthefotter, themagentafoxx and sockunein the headless lounge. I also met toxicjava who stuck around while everyone did a suit head swap! After a bit of fun, hugs and pictures, we went to desuit for a bit and grab some lunch. I went down to the underground mall and grabbed pizza. There, I found the three local cuties renegadeisamonster with her lady chaoscanine and marblesbravetail. I also met gummy-sweet and omgsparky~ I soon headed back and suited for a bit where I briefly ran into bluesparks O: It was awesome meeting another lazylupe suiter xD I suited for a bit more and then took a break to finally meet burgs and zapora who were working staff <3 I got back in suit for a bit and met a bunch of other people before heading to the floor wars. It was amazing! Definitely considering it for next year c: I then headed back down in suit for the friday night rave. I danced so hard and had to take several breaks. During one of my breaks I met leonicninja who has become a big inspiration for me to dance. I walked around a bit before finishing the last hour of the rave with Rawkz0r's set which was AMAZING! I finally snagged a hug from enigmatanzaku who I also finally met. Sore but full of adrenaline, I headed in for the night.
Saturday
Woke up early. Tired. Sore from the dance, but my crew suited up and headed down to the fursuit picture and parade. There were 415 total. After, we desuited where I ran into Burgs again and FINALLY got to meet itsallinthemix who's suit was even cuter in person! After, I walked around and ran into several friends, saw the PWA and AF photoshoot, and commissioned a beautiful badge from the local manedcorgie while trying some fancy desserts~ Also in the artist alley, I met the awesome starrikkyrubui c: After walking around a bit, my crew went to Hard Rock Cafe for dinner; who turned out to have wonderful food but cheated us out of our money. After a bit more walking, I soon bought myself a gorgeous rainbow husky tail from SparkleKatKrations and chilled in the room. After that, it was time for the dance comp. It was just as amazing as the floor wars, and everyone did great! After, we took another break and met the ever so amazing geekidog (who I totally fangirled over) then suited up for the dance. Pretty soon, a very drunk schecter danced with us xD Pretty soon, Miranda and Kewlie left, where I was left to dance with that tipsy wolf :P We both took a break, then he realized he lost his badges. So we set off and searched with no luck, but as thanks he gave the best fursuit snuggles~ <3 Pretty soon I ran into firr who though Koolco was just the most adorable thing xD After that I desuited and sat with silentwulf for a bit before sadly heading back to the room, unprepared to leave tomorrow morning.
Sunday
We woke up sadly, packed our things and walked around. I did last minute shopping, said my goodbyes to a few lingering friends, and we were off. I struggled not to cry on my way back home. Thank you to everyone who made my first con and FWA a memorable experience. I am so blessed so have met you all and absolutely cannot wait until next year. <3
