AGGIECON!!!!!

!!!!!!!!AggieCon BLOG!!!!!!!!!!!

This past weekend a yearly event held at my school called AggieCon took place!!! Ihave gone since I was a freshman(I'm a junior now!) and I can confidently say that this year's event has been the best I have gone to so far!

IDK if it's because it is, as the event organizers claim, "the biggest AggieCon ever", or, tbh, my friends <3<3

I jknow it sounds hella cheesy and cliche but I honestly feel that way...and it's not jsut the friends that accompanied me through the event,(though mainly them- XD they are great and I don't mean to downplay either of them!!!) but other friends, acquaintances, and classmates I came across  during the event. I guess it is the "biggest" Con held to date(by this organization) since I high key don't ever remember EVER seeing so many other students at this event.

There were so many vendors- 3 DIFFERENT ROOMS full of awesome art and products! There were so many things that I wanted but this year I had something that I never really had the past two AggieCons I attended......A STRICT BUDGET XC XC XC !!1??1??!

I only had a 100 dollars cash on me for the weekend due to circumstances I'd rather nit talk about.....BUT I ONLY HAD A HUNDRED DOLLARS!!!! AT A FREAKING CON!!!!!

Anyway....let's take a peak @ my haul!!!1!11!

The eevee items and unopened Japanese(??) Pokemon booster pack are for one of my little bros upcoming birthday next month :D I originally bought three and opened two for myself(no crazy pulls tho :P) PLZ- PLZ TELL ME IF YOU KNOW IF THE CARDS ARE FAKE OR THE PACK IS RESEALED TnT I have no idea and I just assumed they are all real and original since I think the vendor was an importer due to the other things at their booth....but- BUT- I FINALLY CAME ACROSS SOMEONE SELLING MLP ITEMS!!!!!1!!!1!11! I IMMEDIATELY BOUGHT THEM ON IMPULSE!!!!

I invited a middle/high school friend to stay with me for the weekend and on Saturday(Day 1 of AggieCon) a friend I made at college accompanied us. Saturday is the busier of the two days- as the Cosplay Contest is on Saturday(and I believe a lot of people only come for the Cosplay Contest XD). The presentations we attended are the DnD 101, FAITH: The Unholy Trinity Game Dev Panel, Plants in Pop Culture, and the Cosplay Contest, of course XD(as audience members tho- I wanted to make a cosplay but even tho it's budget I didn't finish it in time :'((((( )

BRRRRROOOOOOO- The game dev of FAITH, Mason Smith, AKA Airdorf Games, FUCKING WORKS AT MY SCHOOL!!11!!!1! ****MIND BLOWN**** :00000 He's one of the game dev professors and that really really made me lk think about my choice of a major :'))))

Sundat, it was jsut me and my middle/highschool friend. We didn't do a lot at the actual con- we only went to one panel(OC Building Workshop) but it was still a pretty cool day! We went out to eat @ a korean BBQ place(a particular place that was new to both of us ^^) and we went to a rolled ice cream shop!

yep- that was my weekend! Can't wait to see what next AggieCon will have for us

Thank you so much for reading if you read this far and I hope my yapping didn't bore y'all!!! :D :D


Here are some pics of me and my friends and a few of the panels we went to!
DnD 101- me and my high school friends have always wanted to play but we don't really know all the intricacies and don't feel confident enough to be a DM.
My high school friend and I(the one with the Jurassic Park Tee)
Here is both of us with my super cool college friend- it was really awesome to hang with her bc she is such a workalohic when it comes to school work lol
HELL YEAH 2 FAITH PICS!!! I just think that both slides are just that interesting! Like the main reason I gravitated to this game was because of the super scary and effective animations--like the game is pixel art and I literally would not think it would make me jump! The fact that it is ROTOSCOPED makes their effectiveness make so much more since.
Here's us eating Panda! Literally the only thing that was open that weekend- which was such a missed opportunity for the other businesses- I KNOW they would've seen a lot of traffic.
TAMU Miku XD XD XD
Korean BBQ- lk was hella expense though....still expense EVEN THOUGH WE SPLIT THE BILL!!!!
Here we are that the Rolled Ice cream place!!!
