Anime Central 2010

In record speed, here is my 2010 Acen report! I only went for one day but had a surprisingly good time and saw almost everyone I wanted to see.
Megan and I drove to the con and got there about 1PM. Megan wanted to stop by the Final Fantasy gathering, which was a little unusual - I think the last time I went to a gathering PERIOD was 2007. I'm generally not a huge fan of gatherings but I met a lot of cool people this time around! Everyone was really friendly so we hung around for about an hour before heading inside to look for people. The general agenda of this con was: Walk around until we find people. Talk to said people. Leave to find more people. I say we were pretty successful in that sense! We found lots of familiar faces: Lauren, Tara, Dani, Beth, Leonard, Rachel, Stephanie, Liz, Avianna, Dave, Julia, Heza, Jim, Zach, Dan, Britt, etc. I also got to meet some new people like Kenny, Katie, Kelly, Zak and Henry. When we weren't socializing, we were wandering or eating. Also, due to a live-broadcast of the masquerade, we ended up being able to watch the show in the lobby, despite not having badges! However, one of the members of XJapan dropped in and spent nearly an hour doing a press conference during "intermission" of the contest. Unfortunately, that sucked up a lot of the time so in the end, the judges didn't have time to announce the winners so that was pretty awful. After the masq, we hung out with Leonard and took some photos and just hung out until Megan and I had to leave. All in all it was a really good time!
