Them Burbs

As I awake in the house
here in the suburbs
on a day where I may rest,
I tend to forget
the beautiful life and events
beyond the house
and beyond the life of suburbanhood.

March Toronto Anime Con 2010

There were either more cosplayers than I expected or I was too focused on the cosplayers. Many of the faces I saw I've seen at other conventions. I suppose TACs target only locals.

Most of the people there sat in groups on the floor, some occasionally danced, and others displayed a free hugs campaign. MTAC was pretty much how other TACs are: small and simple. Other than checking out the dealers room and attending some of the activities they held, there's not much to do.

My friend Jennifer and I ended up walking down the hallway and back again about 6 times looking for something interest to do or to watch. With my sister, Jennifer and I watched a bit of Anime Flash and Win, Lose, or Draw.

I took a lot of pictures, but I didn't notice that many of them were blurry until I got home to load them to my convention collection. (>_<) I need to work on keeping my hands still. I noticed that there were a lot of people with video cameras. It was so hard to avoid them! It's like every move you make gets recorded by someone.

The video-slideshow:


I believe I am not getting better at these video-slideshow things. ("._.) At least the ending's brief.

Conclusion: Small conventions are more fun when people engage in self-made activities.

Saturday~

MTAC, also known as March Toronto Anime Con, is this Saturday. It will be held at the Toronto Metro Convention Centre. I'm bringing a convention newcomer to MTAC, but I'm not sure if it was the right choice of convention for her attendance. MTAC is small and there aren't a lot of people and features to it. It's like a small convention for locals to attend rather than a large convention like Fan Expo for people from everywhere. (._.')

Well, I'll be posting images and a video by Sunday about MTAC.
