CALIFUR 2015 SUMMARY
10 years ago
General
You'll see 50% of my trip in the video I'll be uploading tomorrow.
The other 50%... I got to see Megan Tibbits perform again at the hotel on day 0 (she was amazing!), followed by some hotel food that was actually pretty good (lol
I still have the beer sitting on my desk), my room got there the next morning, got to enjoy the ESG party in 1718, hung out and had discussions with a few new peeps. Had time to socialize outside of the party as well, which was rather refreshing. Had fun at Walmart with
doing the vines and such. I later walked in on a friend having a seizure, ate a milano, and got supporting assurance from the staff that my panel would not turn out like it did last year (they really helped!).
Day 2 was spent recording enough footage to really bring out the essence of the con, then the rest of the evening kinda went a different direction, but at least now
and I have a new inside joke regarding NES games and tape. I also saw
for a bit and was very happy to see him, shame I wasn't able to get him in on the video.
Day 3 was the day of my panel, which went much better than I had expected, despite my keyboard dying which left me slightly changing the concept of my panel (thanks to everyone who came!), the rest of the day was mostly spent hanging with
, told off a creeper fur who needed a reality check, watched some awards ceremony on TV with the roommates back at the hotel, and closed my episode shortly before another medical emergency occured which was quite intense but at the same time a bit surreal to me (due to already being drunk).
The following day continued on as if nothing had happened, which I guess was for the best, I managed to find a way home, and invited two of my roommates to come over and hang for a bit, and cooked them up some french toast to make sure they'd be awake enough for their ride home back to the bay area. I had already been unpacked by then, so that was pretty much the end of my trip.
It was an eventful weekend, but the fun I was able to have being around friends, the fun times with my roommates and taking in what I would later learn to be the last year of Califur in Irvine made up for any problems that could have surfaced. This is also where I decided to end the current season of
, and I'll have another post regarding that later, but for now I'm tired, but I'm also relieved that I will now have more time on my hands.
