Well, I ended up going to Comictlán today, because I wasn't feeling up for it yesterday, and my, what a disappointment it was. That mostly has to do with my dwindling interest of manga (I'm all about Western comics as of lately, dunno why), and, dunno, I think I've outgrowned that con a bit? It's mostly filled with teenage kids buying posters of anime-style bikini-clad girls. So, the stand I was really looking forward to wasn't there, and anyway it was incredibly small, dunno why, although as crowded as ever. So boo. There were a lot of cosplayers, too, and the best one was probably two guys dressed as Shino and Kiba from Naruto - they looked so so awesome. There was a Naruto in their party too (and... pretty much every single character in the series o_O), but the dude was wearing a bright yellow wig and it looked all kinds of bad. I did get to buy two volumes of Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle (In spanish. Why do I do this to myself? Vid uses such crappy paper) and incredibly expensive and incredibly delicious mousse-flavored pocky. Mmm, pocky. Pocky is GOOD.
Best buy of the day, though? A GRYFFINDOR SCARF. IT IS SO LOVELY. I'd never got one but always wanted to, and well, now that the series is over and everything, I just needed to have something to remember it by. *single emo tear* It came with this fugly-ass Harry-in-GoF pin, but I took it out and now it's SOOOO PRETTY.
One of my cousins asked me to draw a 'book cover' for a school project he has, and I jumped at the opportunity because I was kinda bored. He had to go before I was done inking it (with a lousy ballpoint pen because that's all he had brought aside another lousy 2HB pencil), so I'm pretty sure he'll end up ruining it somehow to turn it in tomorrow. I do hope he doesn't forget to take a copy BEFORE he does anything to it so I can finish it for myself sometime later. It ended up looking fairly okay, and I hadn't drawn anything in about three weeks, so I'm feeling protective of it, lol. My brother's bitter because I charged him when I did that kind of homework for him. Whatever. I just felt like drawing.
My dad's away on a business trip to Guanajuato right now and he's desperate because the last episode of The Sopranos is airing today in HBO. And it's his absolute favorite series too, poor guy.

Are you a Gryffindor? Am not. I feel soooo guilty, wearing it, but it's the only one i've got so I'm screwed. Ha.

I'm sort of a Ravenclaw, but I like Gryffindor too. I think they had all kinds, but I always wanted a Gryffindor one, dunno why XD

i just totally pictured a young Sirius wandering about there with a handful of Muggle money in one fist and a huge bunch of posters in the other. XD

I actually wanted to learn to knit ONLY to make my own Gryffindor scarf, lol. That... didn't go all that amazing, though, so whatever XD

Maybe you could download the episode of the Sopranos for your dad for when he gets back? I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard to find.

Yeah, I think I'll do that, but I guess I'll have to find subtitles for him...
