IFC 2016

Well, how can I even start this really? Although it was only like 3 days, it felt like I was gone from Bowling Green for a week at least! Overall, it was a good experience, though I feel there are some points I should touch up on.
Fixion and I left BG in the afternoon, and it was a pretty chill drive to Indiana. We only got kinda caught up in Louisville traffic, but overall it was a pretty smooth ride up there. Indiana is a really different place compared to Kentucky! Much flatter and way less trees; I was kinda digging it to be honest. It did storm a few times while we were there, and those storms pretty much smashed through the place. There was definitely some flooding xD
As for the actual con, it was pretty good! I noticed that I'm a bit less shy than I was last year, cause this time I got a few selfies with some cool fursuiters. I got to chat with plenty of KYfurs and I feel pretty close to them now, they're all good people. I was rooming with
Fixion and
SikuWolfy , so we all hung out and ate at a few restaurants a few times. I did drop by a few panels, like how to host furmeets, furry feud, some of the Alkali and Uncle Kage stuff, and the fursuit games. I participated in the dice roll since I figured it'd be something different, and it was pretty fun even though I lost pretty badly lol. During the fursuit games, one suiter just randomly sat on my lap for a second and I found that highly entertaining xD I got a few pics from that which I'll upload later -- hopefully they're not too blurry, my phone is starting to show it's age in regards to the quality of the pictures it takes.
I do feel like there are a some things I could do better at. I'm used to small talk at this point, and don't mind asking a few general questions to people, but I feel like I need to befriend more people and actually connect with more furs if that makes sense? Like, I was on my own for a few hours each day and I would just wander around aimlessly not doing much during those times. I coulda definitely used that time better to meet some people. Especially when I got pics with suiters and stuff, I felt like I shoulda introduced myself better or so than just asking for a pic. It makes me feel kinda objectionable, and I don't want to come across like that. On Saturday, at one point, I was vaping outside somewhat solemnly and a guy talked me a bit about vapes and then started to get kinda close and cuddled me. I didn't really know how to feel about it, I mean, I felt hesitant to get close to anyone like that personally. He was kinda cute though >///> but anyhow! Hopefully I'll get more confidence by the time Fangcon rolls by. I'm kinda excited for it since it's a smaller con and there'll be more opportunities for connecting to people! I might also have a surprise!
So, tl;dr I enjoyed IFC, but I know I can still be a better person and more outgoing in the future! I'm keeping my fingers crossed! Thanks for reading.
