..Was SO. MUCH. FUN.
This might [WILL] get really long ;;;>3>. I can't possibly sum it all up.

So. We left on Friday so we could get our two/two and a half hour drive out of the way and chill at my Aunt and Uncle's, where we stay every year. It was kind of weird not leaving in costume :/;;<3.
But we eventually got to my uncle's. We=myself, , and my little brother. They took us to dinner at this place called 'Dog n' Suds'. Best. Rootbeer. EVAR @w@<33333333! Aaafter that...My cousin, Cassie, and her daughter, Alyssa [GOD this kid can TALK, haha] came over. Cassie took us down to the waterfront so we could see the 'musical fountains'. It was...Interesting xD;<3. They played some Beethoven stuff by TSO. It was pretty cool. Then we were treated to some super awesome corn dogs/icecream and a tour of this three-story boat o3o. Pretty cool.

Saturday. We all got up around seven and were like '...Tiiiiirrrreeeed.....', but we dragged ourselves out of bed, showered, make-uped, hair-uped. Dress-uped. All that jazz. Aunt Maggie made us her magical breakfast [you don't need to eat for almost the rest of the day after one of these...] and we left for GVSU. We arrived..Around nine thirty, I think. There was still a pretty decent line. Fixed Roxanne's [Roxas] coat because he already managed to have a wardrobe malfuntion ewe;;. Got in. Sat on the stairs and watched people come in while we tried to get Kairi's earring out of her ear xD;;;. Kristin, Bill, Ryan, and Crystal arrived. I was so happy to see everyone :'D!! Even if it was just for a few before we went our seperate ways xD;;<3. That's when we headed up into artist's alley. I failed at locating because I...fail =3=;;;.

But I located my Link 8D!! [ FFFF. I DON'T KNOW YOUR NAAAAME. I JUST CALLED YOU 'MY LINK' ALL WEEKEND |D;;;;<3.] I almost walked right by because I wasn't paying attention, but then I was like 'Waaaaaiiiiit a miiinute---I'm s'posed to be lookin' for a Link and Zelda OxO', so I stopped, LOL. We were so AWKWARD. ILU, THO. You guys were SO cute. And you were the BEST Link. EVER <333333333333333333333333333!!!

And thhhheeen, ten minutes in, I got ambushed by my first other Kairi xD;<3. So cute O3O<333. We spent most of Saturday hanging out with them--Kairi, Namine, and Yuffie. They were super nice. The photoshoot at one. That was confusing. There was the Gaia thing at the fountain, first, though. LOL. KAIRI AND I SOMEHOW ENDED UP RIGHT IN THE FRONT OF THAT GROUP SHOT. FFFF. WHUT---?! Tunnel photoshoot. Good location. There was a great breeze. But it was confusing because it was hard to hear the people organizing it. I wish they would've had a megaphone o3o. I DON'T KNOW HOW TO POSE FOR PICTURES. BUT IT WAS FUN.
, Kairi got some shots of you for me, since I didn't have a camera of my own OwO<333333333333.

...I think our picnic was before the photoshoot. It was. Oh well. We made good use of Kairi's blanket OwO<3333333333. Picnicked with the other Kairi, Namine and Yuffie......Aaand.....Got sucked into the Caramelldansen. FFFFF. It was fun. No lie. BUT WATCHING MY BROTHER GET FORCEFULLY DRAGGED INTO IT BY 7+ FEMALES WAS THE HIGHLIGHT. LOLOLOLOLOL.
Thhhheeen...We got recruited for another Kingdom Hearts photoshoot. Tons of fun. Srsly. But there were so many Kairi's during the Kairi/Sora shoot that..I---I didn't know what to do--;o;!
OOOMG. So much stuff. I don't even know.

Sunday was low key. We napped most of the time. Or I did, anyway. Kairi=good pillow o3o. If the belt doesn't dig into the back of my skull ;;;>3> xD. I got buuuurned. The suuun. I thought it was just on my chest a bit, but it's actually on my arms and legs and face, too. The following sun poisoning's going to be a bitch. Unless I get lucky. It's not too bad of a burn, so I might come out all good and dandy :]<33. Checked out anime pictionary. That was interesting. The costume contest was a lot of fun [Gundam+stairs=NO].

So, yeah. SO much fun. I think it was our best year yet, and we've already got plans for next year~ >8]. Huhuhu.

Hilights: Hugs. So much love and compliments. And friends. This is the first year we've really made some great friends. I can't WAIT for next year!

Lowlights: ...I didn't get a hug from the shy guy's ;^;~!!! I LOVE Shy Guy. Seriously. If I had a Shy Guy, my life would be complete. But I got cornered and had to dance with them. That was pretty fun. And I missed ~!! AUGH.

Awkward: ...Coming out of the bathroom and finding my stall door surrounded by a group of girls .__o;;;;;;;;. Whut--?
