Anime Oasis

Journal Entry: Mon May 28, 2012, 8:03 PM

I'm back!

Well, I've been back for over twenty-four hours, but I've been sleeping for almost that entire time. XD

It was really, really fun and awesome seeing all of my friends again!  Totally worth going for that.

However, I'm not sure about the next AO.  My sales were the lowest they've ever been, despite having a lot of new things on the table that were drawing a lot of "EEE I LOVE ITS" but not a lot of dollars.  While a vacation is fun (and I really needed a vacation), I was killing myself with stress over getting ready for the con.  I don't believe that the end pay out was worth the stress.

So if I am at AO next year?  Probably not as a seller unless I'm just hanging out at a friend's table and doing a few commissions.  My commissions sold well, at least.  Thanks for liking my "super moe compared to my table mates'" style, guys. XD

So with Anime Banzai being a "no go" this year at this point (it's smack in the middle of midterms during my second to last semester, and I just won't have time for it, though I hope it will be fun with the new staff for those who do go), and Tomo being a small con that I don't really do much for...I might never have to do con prep again! XD

Anyway, I just slept for eighteen hours but I think I might go sleep some more. 8D

Hope you all had a great weekend!

I am so glad you showed up to AO though. Lin is now proudly sitting on my wall where he belongs.

It did keep me busy! Kept me away from more important things. D<

It was fun! Especially hanging out with friends in a Chinese restaurant until 1:30 in the morning. XD

Though now I need so much recovery sleep I haven't been able to do anything. XD;

That was my problem with cons. People were like OH YOU HAVE THIS CHARACTER EEE and then would move on. :I
Also it wasn't worth the stress or craptons of money put into it. >_<
BUT GLAD YOU'RE BACK. :)

It's more annoying than the quiet people who just browse my art and move on. "OH MY GOD I LOVE IT I NEED IT IT'S SO AWESOME I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT IT oh except I will bye!" urrrrg.

THANKS I AM GLAD AS WELL. I'm hoping after more sleep (I've already slept a lot but I'm still tired) I will be able to update my comic and get some personal art done. XD
