Well, Kumoricon 2005 is long long gone. T.T I can still remember just arriving to see the Pocky Clubs huge conga line! Then all of a sudden I'm going down the huge see through elevators to put my luggae in the car to go home to Salem. Now, looking forward to Kcon2006, I've already started looking to get my cosplay together, im registered and getting my group together!!!

So what about you guys? Are you already working on your third cosplay or are you guys going to wait tell later in the year? IM to excited to wait!! Im getting everything started now!

kcon 05 was great ; it was my first one too! :3

it gets you really hyped up for the next one. i've already decided on my cosplays, and i'm already in a group planning to do a skit. i really need to start making my costume, though ... and get registered. X3

I enjoyed k-con 2005, but i had a much better time at k-con 2004.  I still plan on going to the 2006 con and I am sure I'll preregister by the deadline so I can get the nice price.  I usually don't start getting psyched about it until June/July though...

I'm excited for next year but it's more like slight anticipation at the moment.  Wait until June-ish and then you'll see a definite change in me.  (well, online at least)

I already have my cosplay ideas for next year.  I'm still going to bring my Lupin cosplay and I plan on making a Tom Riddle costume.  :twisted:

The Lupin one is basically done already.  Tom Riddle just requires me to make a different cloak (all black); I have to buy one of those Slytherin badges and see if there's a head-boy or prefect badge as well; and then I have to buy a journal/diary, make a tooth or find one, and connect it to or drive it through the journal/diary.

So I guess I have plans already but when I'll do it is the next question.

I'm doing my planning for Animeoasis and Sakuracon right now, I'll plan for Kumoricon after I get back from those.
And now I'm a catgirl?

Yeah. I enjoyed Kcon04 alot better. And yet, there seemed to be alot more to do at Kcon2005. I probably seem to like Kcon04 more though because it was my first convention so everything was new. I cant wait tell the next one. Im going to the dollar tree and buying a bunch of glow in the dark sticks for the dance, which was AWESOME. The only thing not to look forward to is when the new Kcon starts, that means another school year just a couple days after it ends for me... T.T lol.

Last year was my first con. ^^ My friends and I started planning as soon as it was over!

I had such an amazing time! There was so much to do, and so little time to get to see everything. But since it was my first con I wasn't sure what to expect and I wasn't very social. But at KumoriCon 06 I definally plan to be more social and meet a bunch of new people. And this summer I plan to start touching up my cosplay costume and getting it ready. I can't wait!

Oh man, tell me about it.  Imagine starting up work after a summer off! :shock:   I was having the WORST post-con blues after the 2004 con and it was so hard for me to be back in the rush and hussle of teaching again...

This year wasn't so bad, but, yeah, the weekend is great, but it is SO hard going back to school/work right afterwards.

Me, well... I'm scurrying around for Sakura-Con at the moment. But, come June, I shall be running around like a chicken with my head cut off for Kumori-Con, (and getting ready to go off for college.) I'm more of a last minute planner than anything else.

I started thinking about my cosplay for next year as soon as the con was over! At first I wanted to do Fuu and Lust, but I decided to do Fuu and Rei Ayanami instead. I've had a blue wig sitting in my closet for ages. I figured it's about time I used it.
