Ooooh, where to even begin? Sorry, I was horribly lazy when it came to writing this journal...and out of nowhere, at six in the morning, I feel like finally telling my story. So, here goes my wonderful story of Megaplex 8.

It was a blast...to say it short and simple. With my good friend  PyroChan, we took off from his place on Thursday morning. The eight hour car ride was piloted by none other than  roryhusky. And I must say, I'm surprised I was entertained so much on the trip. I didn't sleep a wink the night before, and I only slept for one hour during the entire ride down to Florida! Wow! Anyways, when we got there, Rory dropped us off at  Arbok_X's house. It was really really nice of him to offer us a place to stay on Thursday night. I need to pay him back somehow. ^^

On Friday morning, he drove me and Pyro to the convention. We registered, watched opening ceremonies...all that jazz. Then we hooked up with the three people that would become our group: Rory along with  kooky and  roblf. Pyro would be staying in their room, so it was basically our home base throughout the con. To my surprise, one of the coolest people I met at the convention was an older guy, in his 50's. We must have talked for over an hour, and may I say, that was the most fun I've had talking to someone in a long time. The rest of Friday was pretty relaxing, and we all finished it up with the dance that night. Later on, I would hook up with the people I would be rooming with on Friday and Saturday:  durangodingo,  towyncoyote,  DominoDingo,  riffhyena, and Roger. I always hated sleeping on the floor in sleeping bags...but oh well. With so many people in one room, it was really cheap! XD

On Saturday morning, my group all missed the fursuit parade. Why it was at ten in the morning, I'll never know. Stupid scheduling...seriously!!! We all woke up and did our own things, though. Our group consisted of the usual me, Pyro, Kooky, Rory, and Rob...but Towyn and Riff decided to join us as well. Towyn wasn't feeling all too great after missing the parade, so I dragged him along with us. Riff and I enjoyed recording and taking pictures of them all as they suited in the lobby and danced in that night's dance. In the headless lounge, Towyn introduced me to a lot of new people, such as  zelldragon and  concord. He also kinda promoted me a little, haha. Overall, Saturday was pretty relaxing, and there was no better way than to end it all at the pool, having a talk with my old friend again. Before we turned in for the night, I was really happy to hear that Towyn had a great time.

Sunday was the day I was supposed to be returning with Towyn, Durango, Riff and all of them. I would have gone had Rob, Kooky, and Rory hadn't decided to let me room with all of them that night. So, I'd be with Pyro and all of them. We all kinda did our own thing that day, and me and Pyro were together for the most part. Out of nowhere I met  silverwolfoneofmany. I knew he was going to be there, but he just popped up! Haha. Anyways, we ended up finding ourselves playing Apples to Apples in the game room with a bunch of other people. Though Pyro and him would leave to do other things, I stayed and continued to play. I swear! Our group was making more noise than the closing ceremonies and the improv show. We played straight though the dance, until con staff kicked us out. The con was over. Though Rob, Rory, and Pyro were all asleep by that time, Kooky was still out and about, and I eventually found him. I tagged along with him and went to a room party of sorts. There I met  jdpuppy,  nbowa, and  tzup. It was a lot of fun, and Kooky and I eventually turned in around five in the morning.

Monday morning we all said our goodbyes. It was a pretty sad moment, but we're all looking forward to seeing one another again when MFM comes around. Rory and Rob will both be going, so we're all excited. So, Rory drove us back to Pyro's house...another eight hour drive of silliness. Then the three of us said our goodbyes. Never, at the start of the con, would I have expected to have made such good friends with Rory, Rob, and Kooky. The three of them are such fun people to be around, and I can't wait for MFM to come around.

Anyways, I've posted all my videos on youtube. So, enjoy!
