Gimme Choco!

Posted on April 8, 2014 at 11:25 AM

Late with the blog oops! Well it’s almost Easter which means chocolate….. Sweet chocolate… GIMME CHOCO! …. *goes off into little world of chocolate and dances to Babymetal*

 

 

Oh wait where was I…. Oh yes! So Kitacon, it was fast coming and even faster passing by, so sum up in a nut-shell:

 

 

Thursday I spent the afternoon/evening un-packing, ironing and wig styling (mostly for my friends because I’m that awesome!), that evening I got recorded with my pal Jess singing lean on me in the pre-con line, but getting that badge and bag and t-shirt early felt good! Not to forget gorging on pizza that night!

 

 

Friday was the start of the con, we had our Bleach group which was immensely fun! I loved being Orihime again and messing about with my Kon plush – who I got Conn to hold for a photo (awesome). That day was the F.A.T.E trilogy before the opening ceremony, which I will miss so much, I loved the F.A.T.E spin off! Kudos to all the guys for making it happen. Friday night was a great party night with anime tunes, so out came my china dress and begin selfiecon haha! Pokemon theme tune for the win!

 

 

Saturday I was Tardis girl for a bit, we did the gamers quiz panel and came a worthy third place! It was a nice chilled afternoon as we geared up for drinks and the rock party, which was my favourite of all the nights – who doesn’t like blow up air guitars! That night I put on my black mini lace dress and fishnets and rocked out! Did I mention hentai? No? Well all I am gana say is ‘pink turtles’. And glow sticks…. So many glow sticks!

 

 

Sunday came all too quickly, the last day of the con. I was in the talent show as Luka from Vocaloid with my pal Jess aka Noodle as Miku. Disaster of the con was waiting 5 hours to get on that stage, yes 5 hours, we went on at 8pm when we were supposed to get on around 4pm…. Ouch. Closing ceremony announced the mini Amecon and big Kitacon for next year – much to everyone’s excitement, but from personal opinion, the Britannia hotel is not the best place for a con (I went to Gemucon in 2013, the con rooms was mainly on the 10th floor, the lifts stopped working, you can figure out the problem here…). So anyway the delayed Sunday stuff at Kitacon meant the ball was delayed. But what a ball! Pretty dancing as Luka and listening to Ellen McLain sing live and having her husband John Patrick Lowrie aka Sniper play guitar– brilliant bit! Still despite all this the potato wedges we demolished and 40 mins of the after party that was left still rocked. I can still taste those wedges…. Oh and no swimming happened and not much sleep happened – so it was most definitely a decent con! I miss everyone already – my friends and new people I meet make the con happen for me!

 

 

In other news I’ve been playing Fire Emblem Awakening lent to me by Noodle  it’s very different to the normal RPGs I play but its still quite compelling, also a little nostalgic Pokemon in there too. Other than this I’ve just discovered Child of Light is coming out at the end of April and now I want it so badly! Defo need to plan me an Aurora cosplay now – so cute!

 

 

Other than that this Saturday is the AniMedia East cosplay meet in Norwich I arranged, should be a good one! Looking forward to seeing everyone again and will hopefully announce our summer meet on the day. Oh and I have so many cosplay’s but no idea what I am gana wear. The curse of the cosplayer am I right?
