I found out about GeekGirlCon sometime in 2025, and I had thought about going that year, but life got in the way of living as it were. I decided earlier this year that I would go to 2026’s, however. GGC takes place at the Seattle Convention Center – Arch’s 800 Pike building, so in addition … Continue reading
Convention Reports
The Sakura-Con 2026 Post
I’ve been in the Greater Seattle area for two years now. As I mentioned in my report for last year’s Sakura-Con, I missed 2024’s due to arriving up here the day before the con plus being on call for work. Notably, 2024 was the first year since 2004 that I didn’t attend any sort of … Continue reading
A New Convention to Write About: The Sakura-Con 2025 Post
Hi there! Just over a year ago I moved to Seattle, and the weekend after I arrived was Sakura-Con. I had to work that weekend, so I didn’t go to it. Not to be defeated, I reached out to friends to see if anyone wanted to go this year, and one of them, the most … Continue reading
The AWA Post, Ver. (Provisional) FINAL?
Well, it’s that time of the year again, though with a little bit of difference to it. You see, AWA is moving from the venue it has been for the last 20 years to the Georgia World Congress Center in downtown Atlanta as well as moving for the first two years at this new venue … Continue reading
The AWA Post, Vers. 2021 and 2022
Yikes! It’s been ages since I wrote here… What today’s post will be is a combination of con reports for AWA in 2021 as well as last weekend’s 2022 edition. 2021 I wasn’t going to keep my hotel reservation until the Atlanta Braves made it to the World Series, which they eventually won. I’d initially … Continue reading
AWA XXV
It’s been over a week since I got back from attending Anime Weekend Atlanta for the 16th year in a row, and if I had to be honest with myself, this really was the best one ever. It had nothing to do with the convention’s content but rather had to do with getting to hang … Continue reading
The AWA Post, Ver.XVI
It’s been a week since I returned from Anime Weekend Atlanta 16, so I figure it’s time to make the yearly post about the con. Play-by-play begins here↓ Thursday, September 16: I woke up a lot earlier this year than the previous years, excepting the two years I worked on Thursday, mostly because I needed … Continue reading
The AWA Post, Ver. 2009
(This is a repost from my LiveJournal) As has been the Autumnal Equinox (well, almost) tradition the past five years, I attended Anime Weekend Atlanta yet again this year. One single word describes this year: wet. As per my normal pre-pre-con activities, I checked the weather on Monday and Tuesday of last week to discover … Continue reading
Back from Otakon
(This is a repost from my LiveJournal) Brief recap time. Friday: Flight in not too bad, sitting at BWI playing FFXI while waiting for my friend Mike to call me to say he’s on the ground ends with a call about 10 minutes after his flight was supposed to land saying that he was still … Continue reading
MomoCon 2007
So, I finally made it back to MomoCon this year after missing it last year (due to needing to buy tires :/). Arrived at the con last night around 6:15 or so, grabbed dinner with a friend, then proceeded to wander around for a bit. I got there after the dealers room had already closed, … Continue reading
