AC constants
-There's always some wierdo who follows me around every AC
-There's always someone who sits next to me in Artist Alley with a laptop who sells really well.
-Nobody ever draws for me
-people trying to hunt and find adamwan... and failing.
Here's my photobucket to illustrate
http://s14.photobucket.com/albums/a339/Kharnak/AC07/?start=alli can explain any and every question you may have.
B757 was a nice plane, Delta has gotten significantly better since the last time i remember. (they had just about every drink i could want. Cranberry juice, Tonic water with lime, milk) They showed an episode of Scrubs, one of my favorite shows. How nice was that? I used my bigass pilot sized headphones.
Mind you.... i had a really BAD ear infection most of the time, as 2gryphon would describe, it's like "jamming crushed glass in my ear."
the MD-88 was a nicer plane then i thought. I noticed that it "feels" different and it turns differently, probably from the T-tail design.
Otherwise the flight went off without a hitch, and i got to the hotel easily(aside from the wierd homeless woman following me all the way).
This AC, i am pleased that i was able to meet, greet, or at least spot or encounter in some way every person i had on my list.
I didn't buy anything from the Dealer's Den this time, i wasn't in the mood for spending money.... but, as i was sitting in artist alley, i saw some tails and said.. "damnit i want a lion tail, right now" but it was too late, so i waited until tommorow. I really really like my new tail too. I wore it all the way home, and everyone thought it was cool, like the baggage handlers, flight crew, and even my mom, she even wanted to borrow it. go figure.
Waaaaaaah Saturday i wasn't able to get into Artist Alley, by luck of the draw. I hardly made any money either, but i can always liquidate on Furbid. So basically i began to give away my artwork prints for free. The reason why is because i don't plan on being able to make it back to AC for a long long time due to uncertain financial future. Hopefully if i can get housing, I'll be heading back to college to finish up, and i won't have any disposable income for a long time unless something wierd happens. So, sadly, there's no point in keeping these heavy prints around stagnating. Nobody buys them anyway. (The shower of dollar bills was real nice though, and quite unexpected ;D wow)
I was told what i needed to be told, and i heard what i needed to hear from certain friends. I feel a lot more motivated to produce artwork now.
I was feeling physically better then i did last year, so i was able to handle things better, and i was able to make it to the dances at night.
This AC was noted by its.... lack of sleep aspect. maybe 4 hours in 3 days. the only time i slept good was when i encountered Darien Darkwolf and the Pawpets guys, as you can see from the photograph. They even left me a huge peanut butter and chocolate birthday cake, how awesome! :D I used to watch Pawpets regularly, and i should get back into it, you can find some great stuff on youtube also. ohhhh man it felt good to sleep... Honestly... i was slightly relieved that i didn't get into Artist Alley the 2nd day, i just didn't think i could wing it again.
I think Saturday night, i was at the dance, and i turned around... for a moment i thought it was Ayato, until i saw the badge, Zaush. I said to myself "oh... him" so i snapped a photo casually while he was videoing his Citra design suit, which looked really good, and i'm sure there are videos and photos popping up by now. (Please link me if you find them) What i find amusing is that every year i encounter people trying to find adamwan, like "hey i'm looking for him, we're trying to find him" and i decide to tag along. Every year they failed. Oddly enough, i turn around... and there he is. *snap* and what i found most amusing, is when i turned around again, he was gone!!! XD Ahaha! ohhh man.. some people, i tell ya.
ICEman was the total opposite, he was everywhere! :D he wore the same shirt the whole time. (As did i, but hey, i didn't have access to a hotel room)
I really miss the congoing mindset. I hate having to adjust back to everyday life again. People being judgemental, etc. -_-
As expected, the last day was quite sad for me, and yes i did cry on the plane, but not as much as before.
Now... all in all, in spite of my bad ear infection and icky cold, i can still look past the negatives, and i'd say i had loads of fun. I miss being there. You've got to hear about my trip back, it was a fun little ordeal in itself ;O
The bus to the airport took longer than expected, but fortunately.... the plane broke, and was delayed.(it also broke on the way up to Pittsburgh, damn those MD-88s break down like wth man) So i was happy i made it on the plane, however..... we took longer than expected and most of us missed our connection. BUT, Delta took care of us, and gave us meal vouchers and hotel vouchers, which i thought was very nice of them. I saw groups of people from other airlines sleeping in the terminal, i'm glad i didn't have to play the Vagrancy Game yet again. I made use of my Meal voucher and got some kickass Wendy's, omg that potato was SO good! and that Frosty, damn! and damn that was a good ass burger! :O I got on the shuttle to the Comfort Inn, and everyone was grouchy except me, i was actually in an oddly good mood and polite the whole time. It felt SO good to have a room all to myself, mine mine. A coffee machine.. for me? 2 beds, and an air conditioner, that I controlllll Ahaha! no no jack, you turn on when I command now! mmm damn they had some good ass coffee too. mostly cuz it was all free, courtesy of Delta. Honestly, I don't blame Delta for this amazing cascade of inconveniences, I blame Mcdonnell Douglas aircraft. Many of these planes were built in the 80s, most of us don't have cars that old.
After being at AC, i found it much easier to socialize with people, like i could start up conversations with just about anybody, i was chatting with people on where they're from and where they're going, and how they got into the predicament they are in, like this guy from Las Vegas said they had to cancel his flight because it was simply too hot to take off in a fully loaded 767(bigass plane). Now... i got on the airport shuttle real early.... BUT, since it was Monday morning, the busiest day.. in the busiest airport ATL, there were Disneyland sized crowds. The security had to corall everybody into walking these long curvy zigzag paths all throughout the terminal.(went surprisingly fast though.) This airport is so huge, we use trains to get to the gates, i was like "2000meters? you're fucking with me! :O" Anyway, most of us STILL missed our connection because of the unexpected airport crowds, so i was put on the next flight a couple hours later... phew, ok, so i had some Starbucks Tea. When i got on the plane, i was put all the way in the back, row 37 of an MD-88, so i looked out the window and 6" from the window was a P&W engine, i thought awesome! heck i don't mind. It was one bumpy ass(fun) flight too ;D
90 minutes of this. Ahhh but i still love flying.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKxa2daLcmQ"please use caution while removing overhead baggage as contents have definately shifted"
"please remain seated until we've come to a complete stop. No person has ever beaten the plane to the gate, so please do not try"

PS: i finally got the hospital bill, 8560$ but it's because the insurance didn't go through, and i need to make some phone calls to correct some info. Basically BlueCross got my birthday wrong... this does not put me in a good mood.
PS: also.... as of now I'm currently on the Housing waiting list at UM. I will receive another letter in the 1st week of August either giving me a room assignment, or an update on my waiting list status. If i can't get housing, i can't go.
