I’m going to Anime Boston this spring. I’ve never been to any sort of convention like this before. I’m going to be cosplaying as well. I have no idea what to expect!
Do people arrive in their costumes or do they put them on there? I can’t imagine how people could get ready at a con especially when they have a complex costume.. which I will. However, I’m not staying in a hotel, I’m driving there.. will I look utterly ridiculous walking in all dressed up? Do people wear their cosplays for the whole day?
Say you have a really good costume.. how often do you get stopped for pictures?
Also.. I’ve heard people are really friendly and you actually make friends at conventions? The thing is, anime is kind of a secret hobby of mine, I’m going with the only friend who knows I like this stuff. I don’t tend to hang out with the kind of people who do this so I have no idea what that’s going to be like either!
Also.. what is there to even DO at a convention! I know that’s a stupid question but really.. what do you do other than just walk around in your costume? I do know there’s a market place and artist’s ally… which is partly why I’m going, I’m popular on deviantART and I’m thinking of getting a booth next year.. so I want to see what the deal is.
So yeah.. what should I expect! If there’s anything else you can tell me that would be great!
Thanks!

Washington.
Washington was handsdown the best leader this nation has ever had. He led a rag tag group of colonists to win, with the help of the French. against the most powerful force in the world at the time.
Washington was not the president because he wanted to be, nor was he a glory hound. He preferred to spend his time as a planter in Mount Vernon, Virginia. Washington would only serve when his country needed him to. This was why he was so well respected by the citizens.
Washington was no military genius. But his astounding leadership capabilities and most importantly, willingness to learn are the reasons he was so successful. This was why he was so well respected by the soldiers he led.
Washington saved the union once again after the revolutionary war when he attended the Constitutional Convention of 1787. He gave the convention legitamacy though he rarely even spoke when they met. Without Washington at the convention our Constitution would not have been ratified and the nation, or rather, confederation would have completely torn itself apart.
Lastly, Washington was a brilliant president. He appointed a cabinet and only served two terms. These examples are still followed today. During the French Revolution he was smart enough to remain neutral even as Britain and France went to war and called on the young nation. He didn’t let his emotions dictate his decisions. He was also the only president not affiliated with a political party. Jefferson and Adams serve as the best examples of what can happen when parties become totally separated on issues. Washington got s*** done. This is why I feel he was the Greatest President of All Time.

Is it better to stick with a Baptist Church affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention, rather than an Independent Fundamentalist Baptist Church?
I’ve heard that Independent Fundamentalist Baptist churches can be cults, while the churches in a convention are safer. Do you agree?
