Starting from.... when? Mostly Otakon

I think it will be easier to do this in pieces. At some point in June, I started dating a nice HK boy. We were very happy. He dumped me less than 2 weeks ago for lameass reasons. I will get back to that later, possibly another post. I did take him to see fireworks on the beach for 4th of July. I was a shot girl at a biker party at my dad's motorcycle club. I stayed a few days at my aunt's place while she was out of the country just to make sure my cousin got up for work on time and didn't burn the house down smoking with his friends. Made a little money which is good cuz i had Otakon and concerts coming up.

In the meantime, I was asked to take over some aspects for my friends' band Typherus. Perhaps some of you have heard of them. If not, you should give them a listen. They are working on finishing another album. I'm not their PR rep, co-head of street team, and prob something to do with selling merch, cuz the other girl they have lined up is a bitch and can't sell for shit. She also is extremely rude and unprofessional. And she tried to spread rumors about me. I dislike her.
I also feel like I may end up sort of managing them. They really need somebody to help keep their shit in line. Get them interviews, make sure they don't say the wrong thing in those interviews. Anyway, helping them achieve success is what i hope for me and them.

Anyway...
Otakon is where things really started off. I left work early to catch the train down to Baltimore with my friend Paul. We got out badges, met up with the rest of the people from our group and went out to dinner. It was definitely a fun dinner updating each other on things, letting each other know about rumors ppl hav tried to unsuccessfully spread, we laughed alot.
Friday, I spent most of the morning painting MYV tattoos onto Youko, cuz that was her cosplay. It was a very successful cosplay. Pics are up on facebook. My outfit for the rave that night was totally epic. Again, facebook.
Saturday, Youko was in the h.Naoto fashion show. She was def like thee best model and best walker. I helped out a little at the Nekocon booth (I will be street teaming for them). And then, there was the event everyone heard about, the fire alarm going off and 30k ppl evacuated onto the streets of baltimore. Kind of epic, there is video footage.
Sat night was the Masquerade which i didnt really care about, what I did go for what the half-time show. Yoshiki and Sugizon from X Japan. So moving and amazing. (Can't wait for Oct. 10, whole band omg. so sad i missed lolla) then a slightly depressing night, but things got better on Sunday.
Sunday, got an h.Naoto Sixh tank top and went to the Home Made Kazoku concert which was pretty good. I saw them checking into the hotel on thursday night while waiting for Youko. Unfortunately i left my tanktop under my chair. When i realized, I ran back, wasnt there, lost and found didnt have it (never got it) So I went back to the h.Naoto booth and bought another. This time Sugizo was at the booth talking to Naoto-san. I also bought X Japan Last Live dvd! And when I went back to the h.Naoto booth to browse a little more, Naoto-san approached me XD Apparently I'm cute and my shirt is cool. I acted as the spokesperson for Nekocon in a Tainted Reality plug. I will prob be helping them out at Nekocon. The Sound Bee HD will be appearing as the band and my good friend DJ Hip Starr will be doing a Mile High party at the rave on Sat night.
Also, I watched the first disk of the Last Live on the train home.

Okay, that's part one of my update. Next part will be my theatre reunion, and if it's not to long, i will include this past week of awesome. Possibly up tomoro.

You know, I really appreciate comments.
