I have returned from Connooga, and let me just say; IT WAS AMAZING!
I've been to cons many times before, but Connooga was definitely one of the more fun ones. I think it was because I met so many awesome people there. I went to advertise GMX (which is in October btw) and I was the only GMX girl there. At first I didn't know how that would work out, but it went great! We got a bunch of stickers and fliers passed out.
On friday I think I got there around 5pm, got checked in and such then went out to eat with Lucas and the crew (mexican, nummy). Then we headed back to the hotel, and on the way scored some awesome blinds that were just thrown out in the garbage. At the hotel Lucas created a new drink now named "GMX Juice" (it's delicious) We then went to watch the fashion show (i can't wait to get some stuff from the dealer), and while we waited for it to start I met Michael (an awesome guy who makes awesome armor and weapons) ,and Roni and Jason (awesome actors). The fashion show was amazing. Then we went party hopping, which is always fun, (though my hair was molested by an old guy's hand) and ended the night watching Whip It.
Saturday we all woke up around early afternoon, and went to a nice cafe around the corner. The food was delicious! After that, we went back to the booth, grabbed fliers, and went to the dealer room to score dealers for GMX and tell people to come to GMX! I think it went pretty well. We stayed in there for over 2 hours (my feet were killing me) but I feel we accomplished our mission ^_^ Later we watched the belly dancers (amazing). They broke out the light sabers and I nerdgasmd. hahah. After we rested a bit, we party happed again. This time around we went to a few more parties. I was tempted to get up on the pole and dance, but I hadn't had anything at all to drink. During the next party we all broke out the bathing suits and jumped in the hot tub. Let me just say that running through a bunch of (drunk) people, in your bikini, in 40 degree weather....is special hahah.But it was fun, till someone broke it. haha
Sunday was laid back. Tina and I decided we would go advertise once more in the dealer room (and do a little shopping of our own) and while we were there we hung out with Michael at his booth, then Lucas called me over. I got to help them film a short video (which I think is showing at MTAC) I got to tackle a wrestler ^_____^ hahaha it was awesome!
After the con Niko, Tina, Carrie, and I needed cheap food. So we ventured off to find a Subway. We went all over town, road the bus, and walked trying to find it. Then gave up and went to my car, drove over the bridge, and found one haha.
It was a great con. And I am a happy camper ^_^
