Great convention!
Slightly wrecked the next day due to not quite all night shenanigans at peachi's house. Is there a man more devoted to the party convention than peachi?
I don't think i've been to a nott a convention before, only to a fundango before... So was a good first nott convention.
Bane/bad:
lack of sleep. Getting up at 5am to get there the first day... then the second day getting up at anytime was a bad idea.
Constantly squirming to be able to see the show, then for the second half, constantly squirming to make my position less uncomfortable.
People walking behind me or snakeboarding close by. I need some cone markers or something, cos looking out for people is really irritating when you're trying to learn something hard. Not small children were hurt in previous bane, and only one juggler was hit.
Do not like getting dragged out to do silly contact staff game.
And silly relay game.
Must frigging practise club balancing more... I can sit down, but I never get to that part of the game! ARGH!
Not having enough time to play carcassonne, thou with the dumbass fantasy pieces they were using, don't know if I'd have wanted to.
Good/high things:
I liked the t-shirts... bright pink and textured like one of those tough DVD's. Slight reuse of a certain bjc logo too...
The Pedenator and his show with Peta Oh-Berry. (If that's the correct pronouciation.) I mean, the Pedenator, full stop.
Rob and his exceptionally silly and cool new poi tricks. Yowsa!
Jeanine and her super skillz... plus seeing her do some two ball stuff... double Yowsa!
Ed and his super skillz. Shame he had to leave so early.
Learninf from Tom Derrick and his supa skillz. Club balance madness and some ace ball on ball balance stuff.
Catching up with bams and cole and seeing cole drunk for the first time, very very very funny. A funny cute drunk.
Peachi's cats. Coleman and peachi's cats.
The show. Getting to think about how I would make a new routine while watching the show, and then just not thinking at all during wes and peter's show.
Vux and his insane diabolo stuff. Can't wait to tease duncan about it tonight at juggling.
Silvia... have so many people ogled at such intense controlled torso wiggling before? Probably, but this time I also got to.
Apex, suddenly super solid compared to when I saw the first time they did this act. Even the feet under the pulled down skirt moement...
Many girls juggling at this convention, which was nice.
Good to see Rob's doubles routine getting a good reception at this juggling convention. 'Timeless' = Great pun!
Local boy Collins really wide and clean seven ball pattern on the second day. V-beautiful.
Mini saying he liked being mentioned in my HLGBC from the SJC....
Seeing Laura again... and on rollerskates...
Seeing Gracie doing feicha... thou I think she was perhaps slightly intoxicated.
Getting some decent practise in and some good chat with friends too.
The train home being easy, and getting some sleep on it.
Talking to tom derrick made me realise that catching the bad end of a high vertical throw of my staff on the head would probably fracture my skull or worse. Might have to be more careful with 'the punisher'.
Crush:
Jeanine and Rob for their energy.
but waaaaaaay to rude to reproduce here.
Sleeping arrangements was rather like a game of human tentris on 3 levels. Chris and I ended up sleeping underneath a bed with heads and shoulders sticking out one side.
