Today. Was. Awesome.
So, it was the first official day of comic con, but I actually went on day: 0. Preview night was JUST AS BAD AS A REGULAR NIGHT...IF NOT WORSE. Okay no more caps locking...anyway, I went to the Jun Planning booth first, and took a gander at the beautiful Hello Kitty pullip that they had on display. Unfortunatly, they were only selling Rozen Maidens, all the mini pullips, and a few others (Today I bought Suigintou). They had a cute Chewbacca backpack at a Star Wars booth and I got that also..I bought a pinky and a gloomy keychain..that's all I bought so far. I was going to go to the panel that J.J. Abrams was supposed to be at, but the line was waaayyyy too long, and an Elite said that only half of the line would even get in. I was wearing lolita..with my putomayo skirt, and I got asked to have my picture taken four times =w= I suppose it will be worse tommorrow when I wear Baby.
Anyways, to the good part. Around 2 I got in line for the Lost Panel, no way was I going to miss that. It was a three hour wait, but a good three hour wait because of what happened. I saw Jay and Jack casually from
[link] .. Jay is so cute *o* his hair is so nice, but I was afraid to go talk to him, thinking I would sound like a nerd for being a fan of his podcast. They let us in at about 3:30, and my dad and I sprinted beyond the place were normal people were filing in, and we got
front row seats. Maybe you don't know the audacity of it, but the place held about 20,000 people, with people standing wayyyyyyy in the back
and I was in the front. It felt like that commercial for car insurance, where the two guys find out they had front row seats at the baseball game, and a whole buch of good stuff happened to them. That's what happened to me. I figured out that the guy next to me was a writer for
[link] and he was updating as it was going on. So cool *o*~~ ..we saw the producers casually appearing at a door on the left, and I got some early pictures hehe. A little bit before it started a crew from
[link] came to our row and asked if we were big Lost fans. The guy from the tailsection next to me got interviewed first, and then he and my dad pressured me into getting interviewed too. I was really nervous though...there was a big light from the camera D: blinding. Then the panel started, and about half way through Harold Perrineau(28 weeks later, Michael on Lost) showed up~ So exciting, since he was missing for an entire season and I like his work. At the end, they showed us a special clip as an -exclusive-, that people at only comic con would be able to see. It was soooo awesome *3* It made me so happy, especially since at the last panel, we sat about half-way back.
That pretty much wraps it up for today. I'll have pictures(and a video) when I get back home on Sunday.
