Animation On Display [AOD] 2007

Alright, well. Since that convention was only one day, I can't quite say much. Me and my friend went to that convention for the first time. I was not cosplaying because I didn't feel like it, and my friend doesn't cosplay at all. We spent about ten to fifteen minutes standing in line, waiting to buy our at-con badges which wasn't that bad. We eventually bought them and walked around, seeing that the dealer's room was closed. So I killed that time by taking pictures of cosplayers, and talking to a friend I always see at conventions. When the doors for the dealers room opened, we went in, looking at the things. I eventually bought a wall scroll and pencilbag, and my friend bought earrings and cellphone charms for her friends [which she lost but the dealer was nice enough to make a new earring for her]. We went and watched the Kareoke contest, saw the Masquerade, and watched some anime which wasn't that interesting. We ate lunch in Japantown which was conveniently two blocks behind the hotel. We ran into a friend who came with her family... but we didn't do much that day. It was a good convention and there would have been a lot more to do if I was staff [I wasn't old enough to be a staff member] but oh well. They did have panels, but my friend didn't really want to go to them so we ended up spending a majority of our time walking around and doing nothing. I would definitely come back though, the con-ops were very gracious and nice when we kept pestering them to see if my friend's lost items were reported there for the lost and found.
