last year was my first year at AE and I had a blast. Apprently the townhouses where my group stayed last year are under renovations this year, so who knows where we'll stay.
I hear there's a hotel on campus, is that true?

gothmylittlepony In reply to tarorae [2007-04-01 02:33:13 +0000 UTC]

Well its fun, but it was, I dunno, lacking compaired to my first time going I guess. lol.

The Simon Hotel. Though I'm not sure where exactly it is. O3o I was reading the site as to acomodations and I saw something about it.. Alot cheaper then just about any nice hotel you'll find in Van really. As for my group, like I said, we're just getting a double dorm. Which is really cheap for six people to cram into. xD But hey, we're only in there to sleep a few hours and then we're out and about with the AE crowd~ :3 But yeh, the townhouses are under renovations, so it kinda sucks, seeing as we were originally gonna get one of those. XD But neh, its' not hard to figure things out~ :3

Simon hotel? Perfect, thanks for letting me know, my friends and i will have to book a room early if we want to get one, what with having the townhouses under renos. We'll definately see you around. I doubt it'll be possible to miss our lot. XD

OO'

That's the strangest and cutest thing I've seen in a while. Awesome job.

I feel so priviledged to have been randomly about for moments of those costumes' construction.

Lovely job; and what sleeves! But wouldn't .. (a-hem) Misha have made a slightly more feminine Sakura?

tarorae In reply to kindlight [2007-03-04 18:42:18 +0000 UTC]

Micha feminine? Don't make me laugh. D'Arcy pulls off a way better girl than micha ever could. D and I are having to practically -force- her into a Belldandy costume, come august. Y , Y;;

We're doing an Aa! Megamisama cosplay for AE, and we'd looooove if you'd be our Peorth!

Hmm....when is AE, how much, and ...where is it?

Since Finland is sucking all my money, it is probably NOT going to be a realistic goal, but I will ...consider if I can get the info.

Anime Evolution is in Vancouver in August...last year it cost me about...130$ for the trip, not counting dealer's room money...
Altogether it cost me about 500$ including the loot i grabbed and the food i ate there.
