A&G Part Two (SORRY SORRY)

Okay well,hello pups! It is Thursday! I just got off work so I’m gonna quickly pound this blog out before I go nuts!

I apologize in advance for how long it’s taken me to type this out, when I got home on Sunday evening, our WiFi had been out since the night I left! GAHHH!! That is aggravating! Plus, I had gotten a tad ill, I’ll get to that later. But, here we go, the second half of my A&G Con Blog!

After I left you last, we ended the CreepyPasta panel then went to the bad fanfiction panel and let me tell you, THAT WAS HILARIOUS. I got some “Homework” from it, I must read the story, “My Inner Life” and I’ve only made it to page three now…it’s hard to get through without getting distracted. Once that was over, Brit and myself went back to our room to get some well deserved sleep….because I had been exhausted. Since I had worked all the night before and had not yet taken a nap. Mr. CreepyPasta went all ‘Jeff the Killer’ on me and told me to GO. TO. SLEEP. So, I had to obey the nerdlord.

Okay, so we woke up “early” on Saturday (more realistically around 8ish) grabbed some *STAAAHHHRRRRBOOKS* (Had to throw that in there for my ThunderFriends) and I had the rest of my shortbread cookies for breakfast. ‘Cuz I’m an adult and I’ll eat cookies if I fucking want to!

The first thing we did after grabbing our coffee, and heading into the convention, was ran into Mr. CreepyPasta AGAIN. (Who was stalking who? No JUST KIDDING!!) So, we chatted for a little while, he thieved my #RedWolf #SpiritHood off of me and so of course, I now claim him as part of my pack. Calling all Red Wolves ARROOOOOOOO!!!!!

(Picture goes here.)

Eventually though, we all had to head into the Q&A panel, so we dutifully followed MCP like little ducklings, into the main event panel room thing. (I want to call it an auditorium even though it clearly wasn’t.) We got front row seats! All, five of us who showed up.. I ended up asking what their favorite colors were, majority said, blue. I ask pointless questions. I’m not very useful in that aspect. Most of the YouTube guests were there, as well as a stop motion animator, Justin Kohn, who worked on one of my all time favorite movies; The Nightmare Before Christmas. The YouTubers had another panel to go to, so they left. Brit and I stayed to hear Justin Kohn discuss stop motion animation.

It was so cool to hear all about the stop motion process on that film and a few others, like Coraline, gosh..so many of my favorites are stop motion films. Nightmare, Frankenweenie, Coraline, ANTZ, James and the Giant Peach! Even Mouse and the motorcycle! I knew it was a lot of work, but holy cow! The amount of sheer control you have to exercise to be able to do such amazing work in such a small scale; it’s astounding.

Anyways, after that, we decided to head into the YouTube 101 panel with Mr. CreepyPasta, NateWantsToBattle, DookieShed, ShueTube, MorganWant, I think that was it…correct me if I’m wrong, or missing anybody. It was very informative even though I have no interest in making a YouTube channel ever, I don’t have the follow through for such a thing.

One thing that stuck out to me from all of the Panel guests, it’s all about where your heart is and the content you put out on your channel. It doesn’t matter what system or equipment you use, it’s all about how dedicated you are to your craft.

When that wrapped up, we headed into the writing for internet horror panel that MCP was heading up.

Unfortunately, Vincent V. Cava, fell ill and didn’t think it wise to travel. Therefore he was unable to attend the Con, however I’m informed he’s feeling much better now!

So, MCP was up there just giving us a short synopsis about how to structure a good story, build the background scenes just to the point of solidification, character development and as always how to end on the perfect climax to close a story or lose end to create suspense to build for the next installment.

You know, all the good stuff.

I suggest if you’re looking for a good story, The Pastel Man is a good place to start, find it here. >>>>

Little Black Bugs, also by Vincent V. Cava is definitely a favorite of mine. Find it here. >>>>

Aaaannyways, after that we went to the NerdCore panel. I’m not too big into NerdCore music but we went anyways and I learned that yeah okay, maybe I am into it. A little bit.

Finally, my sister, Claire, and her boyfriend, Adam, showed up midday. So we got them checked into their room and into the Con. I introduced them to MCP and we hung out there at his booth for a tad, or well for a good bit..there wasn’t anything fun going on for a few more hours so yeah…we got to relax for a spell.

I did some networking. And apparently I need business cards. I kept having to write my blog down on people with Sharpie!

Since we were hanging out with MCP the whole day, we followed him to the CrappyPasta panel.

When it was well underway, MCP went right up front to cause some trouble. (No just kidding.) He became their surprise guest! And it was awesome. Fucking nerdlord. Then of course we had to go to his CreepyPasta panel…where he scared us again! Or well, I wasn’t scared..I’m never scared.

*BANG.*

>.> <.<

“What was that?”

>.> <.<

Kidding! I love when MCP reads, “You’re not scared, right?” Written by MissShadowLovely.

Find it here. >>>>

That one, really freaks me the fuck out.

When that was done, we went to check out Nate and Dookie’s late night hang out panel. Those fucking nerds. They were making me laugh so hard. I had a blast in their panel! It was a two hour panel, which was nice because it gave us time to have loads of fun, and cause immense trouble. Dookie nicknamed me dead animal head. So, there’s that.

Nate and Dookie have a collab channel as well as their own channels, you can find all of them here. >>>>

BTW, I’m just linking you to videos I laughed at or enjoyed.

After that was over, was when the real fun began. MCP went to his private party, Brit, Claire, Adam and myself went to our rooms. I think Adam went to bed then. Once that party was done, I was still awake and roaring to party. So, J, Brit, Claire and myself got into the guest party. I met some amazing people while up there, got some good press for my blog I hope! Then, some weird shit happened. I’m not blaming anyone, I think it was just a fluke. Myself and J only had one drink each, now we can hold our own. But within an hour and a half, we were both way too inebriated than we should have been. So, we left. Got back to our perspective rooms safely, I had a very odd conversation with V, then passed out.

Woke up four hours later, with the worst headache I’ve ever had. And I get chronic migraines, I should be used to things like that. But this was different. Very, different.

All day, I felt awful. I was dizzy, and my limbs were shaking. Badly. I don’t want to discuss it any further, but you can probably guess what had transpired. Once again, I don’t want to give the Con a bad name or cause any trouble, because I truly believe it was an isolated incident. Besides, nothing bad happened, we hightailed it out of there before something could.

Nevertheless, it makes me very upset that something like that would not just happen to me, but someone else whom I care about.

But, okay the next morning, once again I had to grab coffee. But I wasn’t able to hold much else down. We met back up with MCP and J, to sit in on the Mystery Read Panel. However, everyone else was late! It was funny once it got started though. They were reading a whole bunch of fun scripts and just dickin’ around.

Once that concluded, we decided to check out the Armory. I was feeling way too dizzy however; so I just filmed MCP, J, and a whole slew of other people hit each other with swords.

I don’t remember a good chunk of that day. I know at some point we witnessed a Con Wedding, it was cute as absolute fuck.

Then, we went and sat in the Isabella Workshop, but not for the whole thing. We caught the last half. I spent a few hours sitting down with MCP and J, trying to network, while not throwing up, or passing out. He wore my SpiritHood for most of that time, because he’s a secret werewolf obviously.

You can get your own SpiritHood here.>>>

They had CosPlay wrestling, and we watched ‘Steve Irwin’ get killed in the ring with a ‘StingRay’..oh..it was heartbreaking.

I was truly in bad form on Sunday. I had bought some Girl Scout cookies because I needed something to eat.

Brit went and sat in the Pokemon Panel, I stayed behind to chat. Claire came to collect me to go to the Avatar Panel.

Brit tried to explain it to me…I still am so confused.

After that, we went to the Black Butler Panel, which I knew nothing about…still extremely lost. So we went back to the Dealer’s room to buy stuff. I bought a beautiful wolf poster, a HufflePuff beanie, several pins(as if I don’t already have hundreds.) and a black and red lace collar. I’m happy with that purchase because I’m going to use it for my OC for the next Con I go to.

We sat and chinwagged with MCP, J, and several people who would come and go periodically, until the dealer’s room was closing, which meant it was time for the closing ceremonies. We sat through that which was cool, but it was extremely cold in that room so we left.

After that was over, MCP, J and a few others joined us and we sat in the hotel lobby and talked about war history of all things! THESE ARE MY KIND OF PEOPLE! It’s so hard to find nice people, who like the things you like, and still like you. I was in need of goodhearted people.

The group of us that were hanging out, honestly I’m glad I met the people I met this weekend. I don’t trust people often or easily, but The CreepyPasta Community has really taken me in and I’m so grateful for that.

It was getting a little bit late, MCP had a flight to catch and we had to get on home too, so we said our goodbyes, and we went our separate ways. Brit and I drove home, then stopped at Olive Garden when we were close enough to home.

Alright, well *whew* what a weekend! I hope I didn’t miss anything! I had a great weekend, with amazing people, new and old!

Alright pups, I’ll upload photos and videos in a minute! Stay warm! Love you! xxx
