Wincon. WINCON. You are complete and utter joy and happiness. Four years now I've gone and the only reason why I regret going is that I eventually have to come back home where there are NO FANGIRLS. Not cool in the slightest. If I could put into words how weird and completely awesome it is to physically see and hang out with people in close quarters who you know only online I WOULD, but. It is definitely something that must be experienced!

I mostly hung out with [livejournal.com profile] spazzbot, [livejournal.com profile] exsequar, [livejournal.com profile] popmusicjunkie, [livejournal.com profile] lostt1, [livejournal.com profile] __tiana__, and [livejournal.com profile] ignited, who are pretty much the awesomest, loveliest ladies on the planet, if you didn't already know. Some of us went into Chicago proper on Thursday and it was SO much fun omg. The most unfortunate thing about this trip was that when I was pretty much 10 minutes away from the airport last Wednesday I realized that I forgot my camera oh my Godddd. I don't know HOW that happened; that thing is usually attached to my hand. I was so bummed out, and I'm still trying not to beat myself up for it, meh. Still, some others got a good amount of pictures, so it's not a complete loss! AND my phone has been upgraded from crappy to less crappy, so I did get some on there!





Sears tower! At the base, looking up.





The Art Institute! ...which we didn't get to go into because there was a long line (it was free after 5pm) and we were tiiiired.





At Millennium Park.



Silver kidney bean of SHINY AND FUN.





<333!



Sup.



Omg psychedelic.





Pretty building and a huge eyeball.





Ughhh this picture does not do this area justice. This was on the side of the Field Museum, a huge field in front on the harbor and Navy Pier. It was so so gorgeous.



SO MANY CANADIAN GEESE IN FRONT OF THE HOTEL, SO MANY.



The fanart panel taught me new and exciting things.



Appropriate glasses at Party City for [livejournal.com profile] ignited's prom outfit were appropriate.



WINPROM. Myself and [livejournal.com profile] spazzbot!



I suppose when you're slightly drunk and steal people's Princess Leia wigs, these things happen.



...this too. Myself, [livejournal.com profile] spazzbot, and [livejournal.com profile] exsequar. RAWR.

That's all I have for right now. ;_; But as soon as I have more I'll be spamming like a crazy person. :D





The other good thing about Wincon is that it finally kicked off the happening of FUN TIMES. Yesterday was my little sister's 20th birthday (!!!), so we went out for dinner and had homemade oreo cake so THAT WAS GOOD. And then this weekend we'll be celebrating my Oma's birthday, as she'll be 93, 93! on the 25th, and we'll have a whole bunch of relatives over. In two and a half weeks my sister and I will be roadtripping up to Atlanta to see Sufjan Stevens in concert and also eat at the OK Cafe which has the best southern food ever omg. A month from now two certain AWESOME AWESOME FANGIRL PEOPLE will be in Orlando and I get to stay with them and yay!! And then Thanksgiving week will be spent in the north Georgian mountains in a modern cabin with friends of the family and my God, I cannot wait. Good tiiiimes.

Also, if you think I haven't been thinking about the promo for this week's episode, LOL YOU'D BE WRONG. I haven't seen any other clips or promos or read any articles, but, UM, fair warning, I may lose my shit. I might have a thing. Shh.

Aw SHUCKS. You're making me scuff the dirt and get all blushy-faced. YOU'RE AWESOME.

AAHHHH, seeing your pics (though some of them aren't loading for me!) makes me want to GO BACK. I had such a kickass, awesome time. I wish I could hang out with you plus the other fangirls sooooooo much more! :( Every year it's amazing and every year it goes by too fast and I am SAAAAD when it's over. I will upload my pics from my camera and be sure to share them with you!

(OMG, I just watched the preview for next week on my DVR a dozen few more times. I miiiight have watched it in slow motion a few times, too. AAAEFKSFHSEFRDFASDFH! I AM GOING TO ALSO BE LOSING MY SHIT. MEEP. *bites nails*)

ETA: I hope you see what I did there with my icon. OH YES.

Oh me and my lazy self. They're finally fixed, haha!

YOU WERE SO MUCH FUN TO HANG OUT WITH OMG. I get so jealous of those who have other fangirls to hang out with all the time, it would be so much fuuuun. And yay more pictures! :D

(OH GOOD, I WASN'T THE ONLY ONE WHO DID THAT, AHAHA. OH GOD, so sad that I cannot fangirl clutch. PILLOW CLUTCHING WILL HAVE TO DO.)

Omg I see what you did there, BECAUSE WE (ALMOST) HAVE THE SAME ICON. <3

That's SO true. *nods*

I would comment on the pics, too, but I somehow I can't see them. I'm pretty sure they're awesome, though. ;)

I MISS YOU!!! Life is nowhere near as cool as when you have fangirls all the time. :( I will definitely be thinking of you as I watch the episode.

ahhh man, I love, love all of these. ♥ It was sooo much fun hanging out with you and everyone! And I'm glad we went downtown, too, because that was really cool to get out and see the city! Damn it, I need more frequent fangirl outings! EVERYONE, COME TO NYC! [/biased] ;)

But anyway, yay for fun times and soon, SOON! ORLANDO! :D :D

I'm sooo glad going into the city worked out! Even if we didn't get to do TOO much stuff, it was so much fun. And NYC, I CANNOT QUIT YOU. I keep thinking about it all the time. Sigh!

OMG ORLANDO SO SOON! Less than a month! EEEE!
