Songs to Remember: Main Theme - Persona 5 OST

        To be honest there was a lot of shit that happened today, and a lot of stuff that didn't. More specifically, the Cosplay Gatherings.

        So my cousins and I participated in the opening of the convention, where everybody was all in a large crowd, waiting right before the steps to the exhibit hall. There was a drum solo, then people proceedee first  through the escalators, and then finally us through the stairs, and boy, if you didn't run fast enough, you would've gotten trampled. Holy.

        We were with my older cousin, who was with his friend (and other friend). We went like, round and round the exhibit hall for about, 50% of the day. The other parts was, 25% wait in line, 10% relax, 5% driving time and parking, 5% other. I did meet some people, whom I got really really excited for or even, didn't expect meeting. Those included: Mortemer, members of Cloud 9 for League of Legends, LittleKuriboh, and some others. Especially, C9. Like, we were going down the escalators to the main place of the convention where I saw them. Like, I thought it was just people who looked like C9 members and were Cosplaying them. However, once I got a good look at C9 Balls, I was like "Boy, nobody can replicate his height, this the real C9."

        And I proceeded to get a picture with them (and Mortemer), which is all documented on my Instagram. No sight of LilyPichu, but, she'll hopefully be at the CLG booth tomorrow with HotShotGG, where I can get another picture with a person who probably makes more than I ever will, heh.

        Another one of the highlights was probably when some dude asked to take a picture of me due to my Cosplay. I was pretty surprised (and like, delighted) for somebody to ask me for a Cosplay picture. Anyways, that was literally a one-time thing, if I want more of that attention, I gotta up my Cosplay game, which is set for next year.

        We watched some finalists go head to head in Tekken, we played Apples to Apples (where "Niggers" and "Terrorist Attacks" were the trunp cards to the game), and had some pretty expensive lunch, consisting of rice balls and a blueberry slushy. Overall, hyphy, but could've been much better. Also I now realize that going to each cosplay gathering is almost impossible because of how you gotta walk out of the convention, and to places kilometers away. Then, whenever you wanna get INTO the convention, they gotta do a bag check (of which they stopped doing because they soon realized it was impractical).

        Tomorrow is gonna be a lot of events, I'ma have to split for some because there are some, of which I want to go. Really want to go. And in the meantime, buy. As in, I bought literally nothing today but food, aka lunch. There was sorta nothing I wanted. Like I kinda wanted, but didn't really want until.now, where I thought about it. So uh, yeah. I was really tired after getting back to our grandmother's house, I even decided that I didn't want to Cosplay tomorrow because of the work (and holy fuck the heat before they turned on the AC). That was before this one girl, the one who recognized my Cosplay at Fanime, the one I contemplated sending a friend request to, commented on my Mortemer selfie, complimenting my Cosplay and Persona 5 hype.

        Now with that support, I did change my mind on Cosplaying. And if course, there's going to be a Persona Cosplay Gathering tomorrow, can't miss that. Alrighty, that it for now, it's 12:00 AM, we're leaving tomorrow at 11:00 AM -ish, see ya.
