This was my 3rd year attending Anime Expo and 2nd year as an Artist Alley participant. This is also my first time being a sponsored artist! *_* I was there on behalf of Anime Conji alongside Venus and Deanna: SO COOL. Our table was situated at the very end of the 2nd aisle: B-64. Tons of traffic kept coming through: we kept getting bombarded! That was definitely a good thing considering I got to meet tons of people.

Badge pickup was the best thing ever. Since we were part of Artist Alley and checked in beforehand, we just had to wait about 10-15 minutes on Day 0 before actually picking up our badges. Definitely a lot better than waiting 3+ hours in line for our badges.

We celebrated Day 0 with a trip to Castle BBQ (lol a B grade AYCE BBQ restaurant) for Jennice’s birthday. $10 AYCE Korean BBQ: BEST THING EVER. I can’t even recall how much brisket we ate! I hope we didn’t anger the workers because we definitely ordered a lot of brisket, LOL.

By the way, this post is extremely photo-intensive. LET’S GOOOO AFTER THE CUT.

This past weekend was San Diego’s first-ever Anime convention: Anime Conji! The convention was held at the Doubletree Club Hotel off of Hotel Circle, not to be confused with the Doubletree Hotel near Hazard Center (which I thought was the venue at first). This was my first time at a first-year convention and for a small convention, I think it did well. Venus and I had our first Artist Alley experience and had no clue what to expect. Note to self for upcoming conventions: book a hotel room. It makes commuting so much easier, especially since the both of us have a hard time getting up early ;_; (more…)
