Anime Central 2014 + Other Important Things
11 years ago
Heeeeyyy the wolverine here with a little update.
Sunday I got back from Anime Central 2014, and it was the best ACen I have ever been to. This was my third year attending and this time I went as a regular attendee, not a staff member, so I got the complete con experience. The only thing I regret was not going to more panels or main events, but that was because I had strong leg pains by the end of each day. Bleh.
But the artist alley/exhibit hall was very great this year, so much variety and diversity. YES I ACTUALLY GOT TO BUY THINGS. Maybe I will post pictures of my loot. Maybe. The people were great, the weather ended up being ok (IT WAS COLD AS BALLS THE FIRST DAY, GDI CHICAGO), and my roomies were awesome. And that Saturday rave...soooo worth it. I got to see all my lovelies (except one, because he is a dumbass :C) and I had a genuinely good time with my RL bestie and her friends.
I cosplayed Crona from Soul Eater on Friday and Fionna the Human on Saturday. Sunday was my casual day. I do have pictures and I will upload a few just not today.
I already have plans for new cosplays, since I got a wave of inspiration soon as I got back. Welp. My money is gon be gone. I just hope I get hired somewhere already I have been trying to get a job for months.
I am starting to become active on DeviantArt again after months, and I will post art there too as well. I am gonna try to open commissions there, since DA is literally a bajillion times bigger than FA and I could surely benefit from any profit I get. It would also help me expand as an artist since I really want to begin the process of opening a business with my art.
One last note, art progress might slow down a little. Why? Well, Sunday I was told by my mom that our landlord wants us out of the apartment in about two month's time. The reason? The landlord wants his spoiled children to occupy the apartment. I mean I get that it's their property and all, but really, it's a dick move to kick out 3 hispanic women (my mom, sister, and I) who are all jobless and are in a very shitty financial situation, and find a suitable place to live plus pack up and move in two months. All so his children won't have to move out like most EVERYONE ELSE and PAY FOR THEIR OWN APARTMENT.
I am mad at this, yes, and I do not think it's fair at all. ANOTHER reason why art might slow down is that I am transferring schools, and going to a community college, and I am taking summer courses.
SO BASICALLY slow art= moving apartments/college/possible job.
Life is taking over and it's come to kick my ass. Again.
So if you stuck by to read this, I admire you.
This is all I have to say for now, so over and OUT!
