FreeMind2010: February 2011

My weekend was good, especially Sunday. Some time before, I heard about a comic convention that was going to be held at a nearby university. Sunday morning, my boyfriend picked me up and we went to the campus. We got there very early so not all of the booths were set up but we were able to see some of the items on sale. They ranged from unique hats, to hand drawn anime pictures (they were the best I've ever seen), to shirts with funny sayings and tennis shoes with the best drawn designs. Some of the people that worked at the booths were dressed in costume. I had to take pictures. As the day went on, I took even more pictures, saw more art and went to unique events scheduled through out the day. It was very late when I settled down and even then, my mind was still buzzing about everything from writing ideas about all kinds of conventions into my series to finding, saving money, planning costumes (I don't find it at all dorky and am very open to new experiences) and traveling to see more conventions. As I think more about it, I also wonder about writer conventions and whatever other convention that will catch my attention as I do my research. Of course I will include my favorite people and if I know anyone else that would be interested in whatever convention I choose. Going to the comic convention was really a great experience and only the beginning for new experiences...
