I just want to say that this community is really amazing, and I'm so glad I started going to conventions because I've met some really amazing people because of it, and I truly consider all my TD Bro's to be some of my dearest friends.
Also remember that even though some people might give you a hard time about cons and cosplay, that at the end of the day life is really about doing what makes you happy.... yeah things get tough, but it's up to you to keep trying to do the best you can and no one can really expect more from you. Also take the time to appreciate the people around you because it's surprising how quickly things can change.... that's really all I have to say right now, tonight has been a weird night, so I think I'm just going to crawl back into my pile of blankets and ponder things.
