Supanova / Sunday, April 23, 2006
w00t! Supanova rocks!! Liv came to sleepover on Saturday night so we could 'get ready' for our big day the next day. Ended up being an hour or two of 'getting ready' and the rest of the night just chatting. Haha, yes Raymond, girl talk. XD We started watching some Parent Trap and then cbs finishing it. Can't believe how young Lindsay Lohan was when she made that. Haha, made some of my 'Special Paste' to pig out on (Philidephia Cream Cheese + Condensed Milk) Mwhahah, divine.
Then we stayed up til 2am talking and had to wake up at 7:30 to actually get ready. Time flew in the morning and soon it was 9:15 and Chris' mum was outside waiting for us. I sooo didn't want to go out to meet her, but shmeh. Neways, got to the RNA showgrounds where Supanova was being held. Since we were getting there half an hour before it opened the line was relatively short. Omg, so embarrassing when someone asked to take photos of us. During the day I got asked to take photos a total of 6 times x_x. Chris was slack and didn't cosplay, just wearing a (cool) Uchita Sasuke shirt. And he didn't wear the headband either. Gggrrr..... Haha but I look good in it so I wore it XP
We were just stuffing around waiting to go in. Thank god we were undercover instead of roasting under the sun. It was a whole lot different from what I thought it would be. It was held indoors for one. I thought it would be like the Medieval Fayre and held outdoors but at least we got air-con. Really fun going from stall to stall and seeing what they were selling. I wasn't really interested in buying DVDs because they were way too expensive for me and for manga they only had volume 2 and 4 of Death Note. Waste of time. But I spent quite a lot of time poring over the pencil boards. By the end of the day I had bought 5. Don't know if I'll use them all but shmeh :) Met up with some people inside, talked for a while then separated.
Oh man, the kamehameha competition was awesome. Some were really funny. The girl who won this year was screaming her head off. I think some windows cracked it was so shrill. Pity Eric didn't get though, I reckon he did a really good job of it for a newb :P Haha yes we've got that on video. Mwhaha, more blackmail material. And another funny guy who practically opera sang through the whole thing. He only came runner up though.
The cosplay competition was a real let down though. So boring. There was this hot Kakashi dude in the audience though XDIn the end got a Domo-kun t-shirt, and the Tokyo Night Train stall was giving people free t-shirts so got a free one of that. Plus almost 20 packets of the Garnier Fructis Style Manga Head sample packets. That stuff is so cool. At Supanova they had this stall where if you give them a pic of a character they can recreate their hair for you - free of charge too. But I didn't bother because the line was pretty long. Chris went to listen to some Superman thing and I sat on the bench and fell asleep. Haha, good dream, can't remember what it was though.
Well, all in all a pretty fun day, spent a lot of money, but well worth it I think. My costume was damned expensive. Used up all my red pocket money for it. Oh well, I really really like it hehe. Can't wait to wear my Domo-kun shirt out!!
Gah, school soon. Have to catch Pascal and get him to give me back my hard drive before school starts.

Hopped!
