Anime Boston 2006

Hey Everybody!

I went to AnimeBoston 2006!

First day I got up at 6:30am, but didn't have to go to school so I think that alone makes this trip worthwhile. Didn't feel like a schoolday, a very very nice day infact.

Drove and had fun talks about stuff like Hentai. Funny times.

We met "Jin", a female Auron from FFX at train station and invited to join our trek to the convention center, good thing for her too. She had lost her purse (:(), but we helped her find friends. A very cool person.

Arrived and had a thirty minute wait for pre-registered guests like us, and a five minute wait for the people doing it on the spot. Nice chairs along the line though. Organized. And they handed out free Heroine with your ticked (World of Warcraft Trial) as well as a ton of cool stuff.

Austin (AJ), Tim C. (Halo Tim), Carina, Mike (tall one), and a few other guys visited me, Sean C., and Chris Colby (cool wolfman). Chris brought playboy and 100$ of soda/junkfood. Muhahaha.... tons of Mountain Dew, but we shared. Chris slept with his security object (sharpened serated machette), and me and Calahan fought for the other bed after chris tried to kill us in his sleep. :)

We found a gift basket, nice one, for Greg Aries (Most honored guest there!) on our bed once. Sean tried ripping it open, but we restrained him. Instead, we called desk and asked to deliver it ourselves. They said no and they would confiscate it. So... we hurrily wrote a note saying we got the thing by accident, come visit us at extension 2307, give wads of advice and cash... ect. But they came and rippe that note off, threw it on ground and went away.

Later, heard a knock and went and saw them giving that basket (without our note), to 2309, one of our neighbors! Muhahahaha.... but out of respect for Greg we decided to cancel the party later that night (even though several drunk ppl still showed up and chatted with us).

We went to game room for most of the night besides our hotel room, from around 6pm-5am in and out. Great how Calahan tried DDR in my wheelchair. Laugh riot. Anyways, HALO!

I won 2/3, and kicked ass on campaign with noobs helping them have fun. Turned out I knew one of the campaign buddies but didn't recognize them till later. Someone was superbouncing with sniper on lockout (blue small one), so cheating, and won, but I would have started a fight had I not been crippled at the moment. Everyone was a screen peeking whore. I stand around a corner with BR/Shotgun, waiting. Sticky grenade to floor.. I die. Okay. Six more times in a row they only decide to bomb the place I'm hiding, I start cheating for that game (just that one) too. Too little to late, I pull from 7 to 18 to 19 to 25. Met some okay ppl though.

Found a cool programmer to talk with at 4am, showed me www.theinternick.org, a good site. He gave career advice, helpful chitchat, what shows on and when at the con... good guy.

Me and Calahan decided to sleep at 5am'ish.
