MFF 2014 & An interesting observation
11 years ago
General
It was good to hang with some friends new and old; just not enough time to hang with everyone.
I've noticed something though, don't know if it is just me or not... some people mysteriously become either unreachable or just forget certain friends exist at a con. Not complaining or anything, but just something I noticed.
I think the value put on a friendship by someone is directly proportional to the amount of time and effort spent on that friendship; this is especially true during conventions.
Maybe it's just me, but I feel like I'm the one a lot of the time sending that first initial text of "Hey, want to hang out?" or etc, and either getting a response right away... or not at all. Just wonder why that is; it seems sometimes I'm the one like always good enough to hang out outside of a con, but not good enough to hang with at a con? Anyone else get this sometimes? I'm just curious.
Like I said, I don't really care, just an observation, and I had a blast this weekend with the people I hung out with :)
It's probably not a matter of quantity, but a matter of quality.
Also in other news, a bunch of people were shouting my name during the fursuit parade which I found odd... but it was a nice interesting surprise O_o I didn't think that many people knew me; had to be like at least 10 or 15 people. Weird! XD

It's also amazing how many people that would not give me the time of day at MFF want to chat after.
Make the most of your time at a con- see who you can, and do what you can :)
I see what you're saying, maybe it has something to do with the con's schedule. There's so much to do and see that sometimes it conflicts with what others want to do or see. I would have liked to have some people to hang out with, but nobody really knows me yet :\
