The Realities of 2010.  

I'm sorry I haven't posted the anything about Gabrielle's pacifism. I should never promise to post things because I rely too much on random inspiration to write such heartful things, such as anything about the Gabster. I will post one day though!

Firstly, I want to thank everyone who comments on my entries at any point. I know I don't always post a lot of comments on your entries. I'm very sorry, I'm just never sure of how things I could say, would be perceived by you guys, seeing as I am only just learning about you through your entries. I do adore you all though. :) 

Speaking of adoration...Everyone from XOC on my friendles list (and non-XOCers!), you guys better come to the 2010 con!! I don't know where the plans at for other people, but to me it's like this gigantic glowing sun in my future. 
Coming from Australia is the most expensive part, from Perth, the airfare is $2000. TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS. I envy everyone who lives in America. I'm 18 I don't have a lot of money, nor a job but I have to come up with quite a bit of cash in the next two years. All for three or four days of heaven at a Xena convention. Is it worth it?

Anyway, I plan to enjoy the Hades out of it if I get there. I want to wear a costume, but i'm not sure which one. I was thinking Gab's AFIN2 armour, and i'd have my AFIN tattoo by then too. That'd be awesome. Still...Money is the main issue. :(



Note: I got Boogeyman 2 yesterday. Have I ever mentioned I love Renee? ^.^

*laughing in delight* You're so much fun. And there have been a ton of times when I've said I'm going to post something, then just gotten so busy or whatever that it slipped my mind. The thing about livejournal is that there's never any set schedule, it's continuous and ongoing, and there always seems to be more to read than I can keep up with. I admire you for being able to take the time to try to imagine how your comments will be perceived. I tend to blunder in with both feet and stick at least one in my mouth! I love your comments.

I cannot believe the airfare is going to be two thousand dollars! You're right, I didn't have a good idea of how lucky I am not to have to pay that. Can you put the ticket on your email watch so that it'll tell you when the price drops? I am planning on the 2010 convention. :) I'm glad you are too anyway.

Don't say you blunder, I've seen your posts and comments at XOC. You're so thoughtful! If I see that you've posted, I know it's going to be something good and well thought out. :D

Aw, thanks! I'll just take the compliment, *g*

Ohhhhh I am so trying to go to 2010!! I'm aiming for it and trying to save for it - believe me. It would be so cool to finally meet a bunch of people from the XOC :D But I have to come up with a lot of money to go and as of now i'm finishing uni...soo....until I get a real job nothing is certain.

I have Boogeyman 2!! Renee = Love

I agree with "nothing is certain" :(. It's like no matter how much you want to go, you can't really say you can until you actually have the money and buy the ticket.

Are you going to the UK convention?

Boggeyman 2 & Renee = Looove!! <3

I'm *trying* to go to the UK con...but right now the realities of that are getting slimmer. Determined though, even if it's for a day.

Argh!! University and job issues. How I hate em!

However, despite me going to London (hear the hope in my voice there) I'm still determined to try and attend 2010 or some other time if not then. Not only to meet XOCers (caus that would be too cool) but because Renee will not be coming here! Reason enough to save up more money!! Goddess that she is :)

Oh wow, $2000 dollars is a lot of money =/ but for Xena it is worth it. I still haven't been to a con and I live in America! lol And yes it would be awesome to see fellow XOCers in person.

Did you see the ending of Boogeyman 2? It's pretty cool, but I don't want to spoil it for you! :)

I have seen the end. :(

I watched the whole movie once, then all the Renee scenes again. I think the sadest scene isn't the actual beheading, but before when she's going "He is real, he is real". That made me sad coz Ren was all zombie like.
