AX Day 0

I'll try the same thing I did last year and do posts for each day that I have gone. I'll try and make this short since I got home later than I thought and still need to do preps for tomorrow (e.g. getting lists of stuff to buy, getting my food ready, readying my bag, etc.) Summary as follows:

• Was planning to be there @ 3'ish, my cousin suggested to lounge around at Little Tokyo for an hour or so, hoping that the line will be lessened later in the day...
• get there around 4:30'ish, and the line is quite a bit longer than I thought (longer than last years, due to each person needing to pick up his/her badge themselves). Perspectively, we were in line for 2.5 hours but wasn't as bad as one would think since the line was constantly moving. And majorily in the shade; no burning of peoples skins!
• Several already cosplaying. As some might see on figure.fm by now, a Celty cp was found! I can cross off the first name on my list! Will do so after doing this post.
• Quickly checked the programming and noticed not only that there is no arcade room this year, but that the number of rooms used this year have been reduced. Most of the North convention Area isn't being used. Hoping it's not a sign that the event is increasingly suffering each year *knock on wood*

That'll be it for now. Need to do my prep'ing up!
