FrostCon 2 was awesome! Second show went far better than expected despite the hiccups the few weeks before!

Friday

Went to Toronto the day before so that we would have less to worry about Saturday.

We got to the hotel around 2:30, where Cult-Clueless, AfterDark17 and Faxen were already waiting. Checked into the rooms, and then relaxing started. After CosplayCanada got to the hotel with VandorWolf and twinfools, we went hunting for food at the Eaton Centre. mmmm I need to go there more often!!!

Even got a new Doctor Who dress :heart: They had a special sale going on so Cult-Clueless and I went in on it :D She got the Dalek, and I got the 10th Doctor :)

Some of us didn't want to go to see My Neighbour Totoro, so Cult-Clueless, gracefulAggressor, Foreverflame and I all went to the sauna, steam room, hot tub and pool. OMG it was glorious @_@ need to do that again!

And of course setup was that night too for the staff. Sadly I didn't stay long. I was feeling sick (runny nose, couldn't breathe cause of the chlorine smell, headache, watery eyes) so I got sent back up. I feel guilty about not helping more :( Next year I'll make sure I don't get sick before the con so I can be of more use the night before!

Spent my night semi-sleeping on the pull-out bed.

Saturday

Woke up at... 7:30am? I think. Something like that.

I wore my Christmas Elf Roxas cosplay that I hadn't gotten to wear in two years!

My only issue that morning really was having to ride the service elevator with the dealers. With already being sick, that 45 minutes of cold was not good for me. Luckily, I didn't go outside again that day.

After I was done with the service elevator helped gracefulAggressor setup the table for Quinte Mini Con. He was originally there to help me run the table. Well, he set it up so that the table ran itself. And he ended up helping out the convention! BOY WAS A GODSEND!

The people for Disney and FullMetal Alchemist shoots didn't show up so I spent the first two hours helping with hall control for the most part (and of course doing the photography). So my first actual shoot was Homestuck. Shoots were originally supposed to be in the park across the street, they got moved to the squash court instead.

I was super thankful for gracefulAggressor helping me with the Homestuck photoshoot. Getting everyone to the right location, getting everyone arranged... and he shouted out all the poses etc. I was very thankful for his help.

Right after was the Hetalia shoot. Much smaller and quite amusing with some of the poses.

Soul Eater didn't show, so I went and helped out at the front desk (and still doing photography). If I wasn't busy, I helped where I could.

Avatar/The Legend of Korra was shorter than the slotted hour, but that's ok. I got some really awesome shots :D Lots of action! Because this shoot ended early, I sought to crowd control for a bit, and back to the front desk. We really needed crowd control what with cramped halls.

Only one person showed up for the Vocaloid photoshoot, but despite that I still managed to take around 70 photos. So I'll have a variety of her :)

Because Vocaloid was also short, I went and helped at registration again. Yeah pretty much if I wasn't doing a shoot, I was helping out elsewhere. I considered the photoshoots my break almost xD

And, I had a very special (mostly private) photoshoot with Faxen, twinfools, VandorWolf, Cult-Clueless, Foreverflame, RaverBob, and Olimaru Cosplay. I'm just.. SADFGHJHGFDERTGGH excited about these photos! I posted up a teaser photo to Midnight-Dare-Angel :) It started at 5pm, and we started OUTSIDE! But, because it was cold and everyone was freezing, we were out for five minutes and moved indoors to the squash court for the rest of the photos. I hope everyone will like my photos! Twin and Nova had to head to their panel for 5:30, but photos continued to happen in the squash court with everyone else!

After shooting, I went to the registration desk for pretty much the rest of the evening until it was time for the Closing Ceremonies/Penny For Your Thoughts panel. I was there mostly just taking dictation - it's a useful skill (more useful than people think!).

The rest of the night >> Too tired to talk about that... and not something I want to talk about either.

Sunday

Sadly, Foreverflame, Nekoyasha23, gracefulAggressor and I didn't get to stay and hang out with the Guests of Honour for the day. ForeverFlame had a family thing so we had to leave early. That's ok, we were all dead tired so :P

Before leaving gracefulAggressor and I were sent on a breakfast run alongside Marcus. Get food for all the staff and the guests of honour.

I made sure I hugged and said goodbye to everyone too. I miss you all already Dx

I'm so glad to be a part of this convention :heart:

Overall, I'd rate FrostCon 2.0 as 9/10
