Con videos

First of all, I was a naughty con-goer and I do have them. But.

Here's the thing.

I started feeling really bad about uploading con videos to YouTube. I actually felt like this last year too, but I did it anyway because I knew that there were ppl who would want to see them. And now here we are, BurCon 2012, one year later, I'm a year ~~older~~ smarter. And the feeling didn't go away. It actually intensified.

I probably should've stayed away from the REC button, but I just couldn't not record some things. It's nice to have something tangible and not just your memories.

I guess I managed to grow a conscience. Or whatever you wanna call it. I mean, would Jared really want that Are-my-teeth-clean video shot from half a meter away to find its way to YouTube? OK, so he probably wouldn't mind, he's outgoing like that, but if it was me, no, I wouldn't want that. BTW, I do that with pics too. If they are really unflattering or weird, I don't post them. I mean, would Jensen really want everyone to see his uvula? (Man, that is one disturbing photo.)

Idk, I'll probably cave and upload some insignificant stuff, but I don't think I'll be able to make myself upload everything I have. And yes, that includes the last 9 minutes of Jensen & Jared Q&A.

And that funny Let-me-show-you-my-teeth video with the camera practically in Jared's face. Damn you my newly grown whatever it is!

It's a bit too up close and personal.

But it's kinda cute. I'm maybe a bit torn.

I'll tell you what. Get Jared's permission and I'll upload it.
EDIT: OMG, there are some pretty stupid ppl out there. Of course I'm just kidding. I don't really want you to go and get Jared's permission. I'm absolutely rolling my eyes right now. And let me say it again - yes, I was just KIDDING. Đizs.
For those who don't know how to read between the lines! What I actually said was: I won't upload it (unless I change my mind about the whole thing and in that case that will have nothing to do with Jared) because it never even occurred to me that somebody would actually go and ask permission. At least, no sane person. I see now where my mistake was. Apparently, I was giving some of you too much credit.

Feel free to express your opinion in the comments.

(The video I mentioned is not that bad, it's just an example.)

Identity crisis

I had a pretty bad case of identity crisis last night.

It wasn't even the post-con blues, cause I KNOW how THAT feels. No, I bypassed that completely and went straight to: What the hell am I even doing here? I wondered if the whole thing was worth the 23 hours it took me to get here. And the 23 hours that it'll take me to get back home. And I was seriously considering the answer: No.

I don't know, maybe it's because every con is the same. Same events, same guests. No, make that EXACTLY the same guests. Been there, done that. This was my 6th con after all. I can't say it was boring, but I just couldn't be excited about it either. Friday was the worst. (It got a bit better after that.) I was in my room after karaoke thinking: Wait, that was it?! Talk about being disappointed.

And the funny thing is, I'm going to JIBcon, I have Gold for Dallas (I WILL probably sell it, but I do have it) and I bought Gold for Vegas. That's a lot of cons for somebody who's beginning to see them as chores.

And let me tell you, that is a sucky feeling.

And it's really unfair. I have ~~a lot of~~ some bad habits. But if I had to suddenly lose one of them, did it really have to be my conoholism?

I don't wanna have to change the title of my blog!!! (Cause, yes, THAT's the biggest problem. *rolleyes*)
