So the dinners are auctions after all... Well, unless they turn out to be charity benefits, which I frankly don't expect, I won't bid on them. For everybody else, that's one less fan competing for the spots! To anybody who does bid, good luck winning, and I hope you have fun!
I can't decide if I should bother bringing "Chou" or not. I'll probably only cosplay on Saturday and I'm not sure there's time to squeeze 3 costumes into a single day. ^^ All 3 will fit into a single small suitcase, and I have to bring an extra bag anyway to allow room for all the delicious American junk food I'll bring back to Tokyo (XD), but is wearing a costume for only a couple of hours worth being able to bring back that much less junk food? Food or costume, food or costume...? >_< (When I visit the US nowadays, it's like the scene in "Charlotte's Web" when a bloated Templeton sings the praises of the fairgrounds trash. ^^)
