| Demon Dalek! |
What variety of food did you eat over the weekend?: A hot dog on Friday, a protein shake on Saturday morning, Chinese food Saturday night and for breakfast on Sunday (SHUT UP!) and a nommy doughnut.
What did you buy?: 2 Necklaces, a new wig for my Stocking cosplay, a Wallet (which I desperately needed), a pair of earrings,
Things you won't miss: Almost getting run over my Daleks
And finally, what did you do when you got home from the convention?: Had a shower and started blogging!
Con-G Cons:
- The new space feels smaller than the last years, despite being larger
- The large green Dalek, though awesome, took up way too much space while going through the halls
- There wasn't enough outside locations for food
- Not a lot of dealers in the Dealers Room
- Not enough photoshoot locations
Con-G Pros:- Really well organized panels!
- A lot cheaper than most cons - $30 versus the $60 for Anime North
- A truly great first con for young con goers due to its simple layout
- Probably the friendliest con-goers
- Great time of the year: cold weather is great for a lot of cosplays
- Great gaming (or so I have heard)
- Lots of seating for relaxing
