BERNIE MAC IS DEAD AND I AM PISSED.
(yes, im aware it happened yesterday morning but I wasnt around a computer, okay?)
I LOVED Bernie mac. he was one of my favorite comdeians, and his death was so unexpected to me. I'm the type who only thinks about old people dying. i mean, I know people die young, but it never strikes me until it actually happens.
And yeah yeah he was 50, but that still isnt old. I dont consider people old until they hit their early 70's.
But anyways, I saw it on CNN last night in one of the lobbies at Otakon before the rave, and I start crying. it was very brief, but I still cried.
And speaking of Otakon...it was quite fun. I didnt dress up as Sango because I was too lazy to do the costume, but i did wear a cool skirt, some kicka$$ heels, and this cool shirt from hot topic. I fit in pretty well. Got some cool manga for a reasonable price. Good times.
Oh...did I mention I got to be a voice actor in a panel?
Ha, yeah it was kinda funny. i wasnt going to do the mini audition but my friend who I went with forced me to. And a surprising amount of people (there were at least 50 others in the panel and nine other people tried out for the same part) picked me. So I got to do the voice of this one guy off this anime that's coming out sometime later this year called Freedom. That was cool, since the creator of Venture Brothers was the one who assigned parts and talked to us and all. And I got his autograph.
And then some guy catches up to me and gives me his information for if I really want to get into voice acting.
Yeah right. It was probably a scam.
So that was sweet.
Since i felt guilty about making my friend miss the bellydancing thing she wanted to do, however, I refrained from forcing her to go see Kappei Yamaguchi with me, so i didnt get to meet him
But we still had fun. We joked people's costumes (there were a crapload of L's and only two of them did it justice. The rest sucked) and some random costumes (like "Pedobear", who would hug you and then drag you down the hallway a ways away. Pretty creepy/hilarious). And the rave was fun, besides this one really old fat guy who tried to dance with me and kept hitting me with his gross sweaty stomach.
Ewww.
Sadly, I had to kick him for him to get the message. no wonder im single...
Anyways, that's all for now. Three days till my birthday ![]()
And four until I get my wisdom teeth cut out ![]()
goodnight, guys.
Oh, but most importantly:
~Rest In Peace~
