I had an AMAZING time at this con; it was my first MFF and I definitely want to make it a yearly occurrence! I love the hotel and how close everything is, it felt much more friendly and easy to find people/be among folks than the AC venue (though I love AC too and will be there this year!). Everyone was so kind and a few people even recognized me and approached me in costume for photos! WOW!

I really really needed a vacation and this was a good one... though I kind of need a vacation from my vacation now... o

THANK YOU to all who gave me birthday wishes and treats!! Wolf-Bold and Havoas gave me amazing chocolates and Nyomi gave me sour patch kids and Ki And Q gave me this AMAZING SHIMMERY BOOZE.... ;_; just thank you to all. <3 I had a really fun time handing out party hats and if you were at the Saturday night rave before 1am you may have seen or been given a hat by yours truly! Hope there's photo and vid of that sometime!

Saturday Night/Sunday Morning events: Myself and my friends are safe and were not affected. We COULD smell a bleach odor in the lobby as we evacuated, and that was freaky. I was so tired at the time that I was pretty grumpy and apathetic, but in retrospect it was really freaky. :\ Thanks to the folks who did their best to help me rest even when I was snappy, sorry for being so grumpy!! :(

Dance Comp: I had the opportunity to dance in the opening number of the dance competition and it was SO FUN. In the end I managed pretty well with the choreography! Many many thanks to my team leader Atsu (GO TEAM RED) and J.D. for the ending choreography!

Art Show: WOW I managed to do a few things the night before I left and I'm so glad I did! There was an AMAZING turnout and I sold all but four small pieces! UNFORTUNATELY...... I didn't take a single photo of all the work I did oops!!! If you know anyone who bought a Kittiara piece from the art show at MFF, I would love a photo or scan... oopsie! Especially the gold leaf ones, haha! But that was my bad. I'm just so happy to have my art supported... it funded me making several bids of my own and I walked away with three lovely pieces! A skull by Loba and two Louve otters. I just could not win that dang St. Bear...

Overall it was just tottally lovely. Thank you to everyone, I really can't wait for next year!

My next con will be Anthro New England!
