i've been feeling inspired but simultaneously lost at sea lately, so i'm
going to make a list of things i want to do. my main issue is getting
started, so i think i'll put time limits on these to give myself a starting
push as well

- finish some scholarship essays
- finalize plans on attending college
this month:
- start learning blender

hi! yesterday i traveled a bit to go to kamicon with my bf and had a ton of
fun. we mostly stayed in the arcade and the artists alley the whole time,
playing games and browsing. i ended up purchasing 5 things, a new
record! i got a princess luna keychain, a rei ayanami keychain, two rei
ayanami prints, and a rei shirt.
i wonder who my favorite character is.
my favorite part of kami con continues to be the arcade. everything
inside is free to play, and there's a huge variety of games. you can play
fighting games,
rhythm games,
dancing games, pinball, vr, retro consoles, and one game that was like
simulating being a train conductor?? that one looked cool but i didn't have
time to play it. i played tekken, guilty gear, bubble bobble, a handful of
rhythm games
(including taiko no tatsujin, with the drums and everything), and jet grind radio. we watched a tekken tournament before we left and it
was actually pretty exciting by the end.
there were a ton of cool cosplays at the con. i spent the whole time
pointing out characters i recognized and my bf played where's waldo trying
to find them lol. i sort of cosplayed as parappa the rapper, because i
bought his hat and wore an outfit vaguely resembling his. 6 people
recognized me though, so i win B) the coolest cosplay i saw was this guy
dressed up as the prince from katamari damacy. he competed in a katamari
tournament they were holding but idr if he won or not lol.
unrelated but i started playing pokemon sleep and pikmin bloom. they're fun!
acpcc collection efforts are going along o7
