Back in the hotel again... actually, have been for a while, since there really wasn't much to do today o.O

Once again I'm forgetting details about what I did today - probably the lack of sleep doing that x_x The day started with us unsuccessfully trying to wake up in time to get to the Pioneer panel - though we didn't get there until late, it seems Heat Guy J had run over anyways. I did ask my question about Sugar specials - of course, no news on that. We stayed through the Pioneer music panel, then I went over to the exhibition hall.

Keys-oneechan was in line waiting for an aBe autograph, as was Jessica, farther back in the line... and a Kajiura autograph line would be starting soon. I attempted to see if the booth had gotten a copy of GateKeepers 21 vol.2 with pencilboard - they still didn't have one. -_- I joined onee-chan, and Jason (wolve) and Lucan (Kazara) that had gathered there too. I lost Lauren at some point, and just ended up leaving with Jason and Lucan. Merli joined us at some point on the way, but wolve and I went off in the other direction to try to get into the Kajiura panel. This doesn't happen - the line was far too long, and it was decided that we would both attempt to get her autograph the next morning, abusing our badges to get into the exhibition hall early as it would be in the Pioneer booth.

We ended up rejoining Lucan and Merli, then walking to Carl's Jr, where I pretty much get the same thing I ordered last time (basically the equivalent of a double Whopper at BK), and this time got the criss cut fries, too ^^; We walked back to the convention center, chatting a bit with Cthulhu27 on the way about translation job opportunities. Lucan goes elsewhere while we catch the tail end of the FUNimation panel, and the ADV industry panel starts.

Of course, not much in the way of announcements, as most of the announcements had been tackled during the previous panel. One more was pulled out of Matt by dlw's Jedi Mind Trick, though. ^^; After the panel wrapped up, I returned to the exhibitor's hall once again - and notice Jessica, Thomas, and Bunly all in the Kajiura line. I was tempted to join them in their spot in the line, but didn't, opting to go back to the line - that didn't exist. ^^; The line had been closed, so no autograph for me today after all. The autographs went fast, too - Jessica and the others got theirs done in a matter of minutes.

Jessica and I went back to the hotel, and I spotted another Kajiura autograph line - though this one required tickets from the panel that we didn't go to. =P I DDRed for a little bit - in the morning, I had dumped all my edit data onto my memcard, so I tried out an edit... while still wearing slippers. And, I happened to pick bakudan. And forgot to 1.5 it. Yeah... x_X Anyways, I did a random all singles set, then I did a 3 song doubles set, consisting of roulette (not sure which song it was), A oni, and CSFIL -speed- 1.5 hidden dark. My PA sucks, as usual, especially while wearing slippers. I head up after that, hoping to shower before the Synch-Point panel, but Jessica and Lauren were there waiting for housekeeping to kick them out ^^;

After Lauren took care of some flight business, I called up Hui-Ping - she gets back to me, and I go to meet up with her at the Animatrix showing. I end up leaving shortly after to check out the Synch-Point panel, which apparently almost none of the press was present for ^^; (The only significant announcement was DiGi Charat manga, anyways.) I did get to talk to Saki for a little bit, though. ^^;

Went back to the Animatrix showing, and watched what was left with Hui-Ping. She leaves after that, though. I go back to the Marriott, and see Lauren, Jessica, Merli, Richard, and Jeff sitting in the area of floor at the part closest to the convention center. Amazingly, that was the first time I had seen Richard for the entire con. Merli and Richard leave, and a few hours later, I do the same. I go to the Pizza Hut to watch more incompetence while waiting a ridiculously long time for my medium Supreme pizza. Bleh.

I take the pizza up to the room, and watch the end of Terminator 2 and the beginning of Twins with Bunly before everyone else showed up (Thomas showed up a little after midnight shortly, then left again to do a Carl's Jr. food run, then in another half hour he got back, and the rest came shortly after). Yes, that sentence probably doesn't resemble proper English. I'm getting tired. I need to sleep if I want to be up as early as I want to wake up in order to actually get a Kajiura autograph. Lauren's call to the airline is on hold for another hour giving us faint music and ridiculous ads every few minutes. Nyaaaaaa.

This is probably my last update in CA, as we are checking out tomorrow morning, and I do not have internet access from my aunt's. (I'm probably not going to be staying at Irvine again, either.) I guess I'll probably just see you all when I get back home. (As usual, I uploaded today's pics to the gallery... all 10 of them. Yeah, I really did do nothing of importance today.)
