Anime Expo 2012

I had the pleasure of attending the Anime Expo 2012 that was held at the LA Convention Center, the same place where E3 is held.This is my 2nd time attending the expo. My 1st time was, if I'm remembering correctly, in 2006 at the Anaheim Convention Center. I personally liked that venue better. But what can you do? I didn't cosplay like I wanted to. I would have gone as something from Fullmetal Alchemist. Just love a man in uniform. Hehehe.I pretty much was at the expo by myself this year. My friends came on Saturday, and mark and his friend kept me companyfor a few. But to make the experioence pass by, I decided to volunteer. Why not, right!? And if I put in enough hours, I could get my ticket reimbursed. So I did. And much to my delight, I got tasked for a special project. I was pretty much on standy the entire 3 days I attended, and let's just say I had to sign a disclosure form. It was fun getting to see Guest Relations and some of the behind scenes of the expo. I got to meet some oil people too. They were my fellow volunteers. I didn't get to party because I didn't have a hotel room, and plus I took the train up to the expo everyday. Maybe next year I'll come back as a staff and get a hotel room. We shall see!
