You people are all making me feel freaking old.
My first convention was Anime America '95 (a convention that I believe doesn't even exist anymore). Three of us drove out from mid-Missouri to Northern California for the convention, camping instead of staying at hotels on the way to save money. We had a great time, getting to meet Hayashibara Megumi and Monkey Punch while there and being completely blown away by the seemingly endless content of the dealer's room. Met up with a bunch of the MUCKers that I interacted with a lot online at the time and oohed and aahed at the AMVs (I can't remember if there was an actual contest or just an expo- this was a year before I started editing myself). Somehow despite being a lot more active in things these days and a lot more involved, that first convention still seems to outshine most of the more recent ones, but then being nearly 9 years ago it's probably falling into the range of rose-colored memories...
First convention memories (Or Plans?)?

My first con looms in the near future at the moment: Animazement '04
I already have one cool memory: the fact that I'm getting in free
My younger cousin is going, and his Mom is concerned with the thought of him runing wild and unsupervised for three days for some strange reason, so she's paying my way in for me!
