I'm going to buy my and my BF's tickets tomorrow - mine's gonna be a three day thing, and his a one day... he's not that big into anime, so he can't take all of that just yet (the con may just kill him.. or just overload his anime-drive XD)... he's just going to help me with the flea market, where I'm going to sell the rest of my manga (except for a select few), and my anime DVD's (except for a select few).... we're going over the inventory and pricing lists tonight...
He's going to help me by driving me there, setting up a table and setting up the stuff and helping me sell it all and just generally being awesome....
You know what's sad? I'm there to sell my stuff and get money to be able to move - and yet I'm going to be SO tempted to buy so much stuff while I'm there T_T;; there will be no winning.

I'll post the list in a bit - I'm going through my manga collection over the next few days (actually went through 6 boxes today and I'm still not done... omg... so much work... it took over 4 hours to sort, count and price and reorganize into boxes this evening... and that's not even all of my manga... I still have over 100 to do) - then I'll take care of anime. ^_^ of course it'll all be posted here first - cause I can always reprint a list or two, you know?
The con is still so far away!
And of course you can meet Ryan! ^_^

I only have about 30 volumes or so of manga; the only money I normally get throughout the year (besides birthdays and Christmas and such) is money for lunch every week, so I have to basically have to deprive myself from food if I don't make lunch at home (which I'm either too lazy to do, or I don't have enough time). Then I also use some of my money to spend on video games and art stuff sometimes, even if my parents could buy them for me. XD Er, yeah. You're lucky to have so much.
If you post the lists here, could we have first dibs on buying some stuff? XD And yeah...it is very far off, yet many others are planning and stuff. Wow.
I'd like to start on my costume, too, but I think I'll just do it all in the summer...

Yeah, I know. I'm reffering to TSP and your oneechan. The word "you" can be a little vague sometimes...guh.

Mew! Haven't checked this in a while ^^;; Yeah - it's awesome to look at your collection sometimes and just... you know... kinda sigh happily and ... whatever ; I do feel like I have to mention though... that when I first started out, oh, say... 7 years ago, it was a competition between my friend Laura and I. I was jealous that another friend of mine, Tsuki, we called her, was able to get so many manga whenever she wanted because her parents kept giving her money, so I started to buy my own... Then Laura got into it and we'd make sure to mention in almost every conversation, when we'd got a new manga... "I'm up to 23, now..." Laura would say nonchalantly, while eating lunch. "Yeah? Wow... well I'm at 25." I would reply, casually munching on my own lunch. next week... "I bought three more at Chapters last weekend." Laura would say with a sigh, picking up her books. "Oh? That's nice." I would say, all the while thinking nasty thoughts because I was now one behind. So bad... Until I got a job! And I whooped her butt in the manga owning-ness! and then it got out of hand... ;-; "I went out to Vancouver a couple of weeks ago and bought two new manga." Laura would say. "Oh yeah? Well I went out and bought 14 three days ago!" I would say, breathing heavily, my eyes gleeming crazily. Or... "You know what... I'm not gonna even try anymore..." Laura would say... "Oh... fine..." I would reply. "How many do you have now?" "Uhm... 136." a couple of months later: "How many do you have now?" "Uhh...198..." And so on... until, a few days ago... "How many do you have now?" "I lost count after 427..." TT_TT;;

Ahaha! XD Yeah...I'm not buying lunch at school anymore so I can get the Loveless volumes; but then I want some more stuff at Animania or something so I can't pay for that in a while, unless I finally get the honour roll money I persuaded my mom to give me. XD Hmm hmm...*plots*

Sam, take English 12 in the summer too. Trust me, three of my friends did it, and they were sitting pretty all year. While I was writing in-depth essays and topical papers all year, they laughed at me because they only had to answer with short paragraphs and one line answers on easier books. My English work (Good Lord, the sheer volume of it.....) combined with my English Literature work, just about killed me...... and then there was the history work (imagine having to take home 4 textbooks every night for one course.... that's History 12)...... So yeah, take your English 12 in the summer after grade 11, lol.
To Shiro (who's name currently escapes me): Yes, I look forward to meeting another Toushiro fanatic!
To Jenna: Don't worry, I can use force to limit you to ten purchases if you get that weird gleam in your eye and start talking too fast to understand. I guess that's the plus side of having a boyfriend so much bigger than you, lol. How about getting all dolled up? Let's face it, sex sells, and I'll get all purdy too! I mean that in the most manly of fashions.....ahem.....
