HECK YES.
AB2009 WAS THE BOOOMMMMBBBB.
Or...as me and Megan like to say with our lips all puckered and dumb-looking in a cowboy accent, "Bommmmmb diggity."
A-anyways...onto the story.
This is going to hurt my fingers.


Alright, soooooo...

Me, Mandy, and Robyn were going as Mello, Near, and L. (Yeeesss, the LMN group. ; u ; )
So, Robyn lives like...what...two hours away from the Hynes Convention center?
So we had to wake up at four.
After hurridly pulling on our costumes, fixing wigs, and stuffing all needed things into our pockets/pants, we left.
On the way there, Near/Mandy kindly shared her bag of twizzlers, which caused us to get a liiiiittle sugar high.
So, the two hour ride passed pretty quick, and we were in Boston in no time, where we spotted the first two cosplayers we saw: A girl we didn't know, and a Yugi. 8D


Anyways, moving on.
So, we got into the building, myself, Near and L all squealing like the little idiots we were at our first anime convention.
We ended up getting lost at like...5AM, so we had to follow Luigi around. He was like "A-LUIGI KNOW-A DAH WAYYY!" so we followed him, 'cause...y'know...Luigi know-a dah way.
Keehee.
Moving on again.
Followed Luigi into the line, stood there and had a really long conversation with a Ryuk.
We were called "SO KAWAII!" and "SUUUPPPEERRR CUUUTTEEE!" and "The cutest Death Note Cosplayers EVER!" several times.
Keheheh. We rocked.
Anyways, whilst standing in line, after talking with Ryuk and her little Pikachu brother, we met Haruhi SuzuBEARDYA. (Haruhi Suzumyia...or...however you spell her ridiculous last name.) It was a man. With a beard. Being Haruhi. I think it was the best thing ever. = u =
Later I will upload my pictures and make a second journal entry with them. ; u ;
AND THERE YOU WILL SEE HARUHI SUZUBEARDYA PULLING A SEXY POSE. xD

Anyways, so we stood in line for like, two hours, I ate half my chocolate bar, then we GOT IN. And the fun began.
Standing in line, Mello (or me. ;D ) made friends/fell in love with a really amazing L cosplayer, and his friend Teru Mikami (also really good!). Teru tried to kill me, Near and L, but alas, spelled Mihael Keehl as "Micheal Keehl". SO I LIVE. PWAHAHA.
We saw them forever that day, but that comes in later.
So, we were still in line and stuff, when somebody asked me if I had chocolate. Being a super-geek and Mello, I innocently asked, "Chocolate....? Did you say...CHOCOLATE?" then I screamed "CHOOOOCOOOLLAATTTEEE!!!" like in the spoof, and started a chain reaction through the line of people screaming "chocolate" loudly. 8DDD
I feel so bad for the people at the register desks. Listening to crap like that all day.
Anyways, after that, a girl from Naruto from that black-coated gang in it borrowed a nearby girl's poster so she could scream "YOU LOST THE GAME!" (which I just lost, by the way.) and all throughout the line you heard angry mutters of "...I lost the game..." and whatnot.
It was the funnest wait in line EVER.
And there were so many Kingdom Hearts cosplayers!! <3

Aaaaaaaaaanyways, we waited in line, we registered, and we were REALLY in.
It was absolutely fabulous.
To put it in short, it was the best time of my life.
Ever.
Totally worth getting up at 4AM for.

But I'm gonna put it in long, too. ;D

So, alright. We're in. I took 108 or something pictures, 119? I dunno. TONS.
I saw that L and Teru, and when I saw L, I was like, creepin' up on him, then I tackled him and he was like "HHHHO CRAP! WHO IS THIS?!" and I was like "Meeee~eee! <3" and he laughed and I climbed off and we were talkin', then another cosplayer in their group (She was holding hands with L, I think they were dating in real life! :3 ), she snatched up Near and bolted away with her, screaming about how cute Mandy was as Near and that she wanted to keep her. 8D
So after we rescued Mandy Near, we said farewell to the L, Teru & L's Possible Girlfriend That-I-Don't-Know-Her-Name-But-Her-Cosplay-Was-Awesome, and we went on our merry way. We decided to get in line for the Anime Dating game, but it was waaaay more suckish than we thought it would be, and we were in the waaaayyyyy back, so....we left.
'Cause it was so suckish.
We wanted to get in line for the Masquerade, but the line was like...tenmillion rooms long...so we just decided to not go to the Masquerade. D:
Which was really awesome-sounding. DDDD:
And Luigi was going to dance Lucky Star in it! DDDDDDD':
And I missed it. - heartbreak -

Anyways, moving ooonnnn!
We had lunch at the Panda Express, and I, Mello, had rice...because...they didn't have those Golden Chicken Puff things. (mmmnnhhh.)
A-anyways, so during lunch, more people said we were cute and wanted to take our pictures. She was actually pretty funny, she was like "I love bothering people when they're eating...so...can I take a picture of you three?" = u =
It was a big ol' love convention.

After lunch, we went outside, frolicked a little, then returned inside for more con-goings, which were fabulous!
Basically, we explored the Dealer's Room, where me and Robyn went all out spending.
I spent all my money on a REALLY REALLY REALLY good Anti-Sora poster, a really REALLY REALLY good Roxas-in-the-rain poster, a really cute/"kawaiiiiii" picture of Roxas with ice creams (mmm...)

Robyn bought some adorable Sora stuff, and I also got a new Death Note T-shirt and a pin that says "BOOM, HEADSHOT!" on it...keheehehee...I LOVE THAT PIN...and two "Draw Anything For a Doooolllar!" cards. <3

So because the lines for everything were so long, we simply made friends with millions of people and scanned the Dealer's Room, which was a little heaven for us.
Also, Mandy/Near got a Halloween Town Sora action figure, which is extreeeemely cool!

So, we had tooons of fun, and I caught Teru and L again, so I gave them my last few hugs and then we all left, because Robyn's dad wouldn't allow us to go to the Rave/Dance Party..
which is alright with me, because I barfed in the car. ; n ; (probably because I ate no breakfast and raw ramen noodles. ew.)

and I cried a wicked lot.
but....all in all, it was FAAAABULOUS.

So...adieu.
And..

IN YOUR FACE IF YOU WEREN'T AT AB2009. ;D
I also feed sad because you couldn't go.
