[rubysp720.livejournal.com]

unfortunately I'm located in Sydney and goes with Animania so I haven't the pleasure to go cons in other state T__T

Yes! It's getting better and -hopefully- better every year :D

[rubysp720.livejournal.com]

whoa! is there some kind of site online for these con dates? I didn't realise Australia had so many...

I'll be at all the animania cons and possibly Smash as well. :D

[glorfindel.livejournal.com]

Um not really any online site, I just compile a list at the beginning of every year (I just havent gotten around to including perth cons yet). lol

www.auscons.net is a forum for australian conventions

otherwise

www.animania.net.au
www.supanova.com.au
www.smash.org.au

haha yes australia actually has a tonne of conventions XD

[rubysp720.livejournal.com]

Regardless. Thank you very much for your list :D

[glorfindel.livejournal.com]

No problem at all ^^ Nice to see more aussies around the place.

If you have any further questions about any cons feel free to poke me.

I'm also the cosplay coordinator for SMASH! haha so I may be a little biased but I have to say its definately a con you'll want to attend. So cheap compared to all the other conventions. XD

[rubysp720.livejournal.com]

we might have met before! I had gone to SMASH the past two years. And would you happen to know a -annoying- guy named Steven? geeky with glasses :D

The Seiyuu was awesome!! (even though I didn't understand snit)

Anything interesting happening this year?

[glorfindel.livejournal.com]

Haha yes I know Steven!

Oh good then ^^ Well SMASH! will be even better this year with two days :D

I can't say anything as of yet XD

Well I cosplayed Akira from LS to SMASH! last year, but I was in the cosplay room and running around a fair bit the whole day.

[rubysp720.livejournal.com]

it's a small world *nods*

LS? *my mind is too sleep to think properly...*

Ouch for you. XDDD

[glorfindel.livejournal.com]

LS= lucky star XD

very small indeed haha

If you'll be attending sydney supanova I'm going to be there cosplaying artbook euphy (cream dress) with the C.C, Suza and Lulu from the same image.

[rubysp720.livejournal.com]

I'll definitely be glomp-ing you then! XDDD

be prepared.

*sorry but I have to sleep now...work tomorrow* =_=

[glorfindel.livejournal.com]

haha, just keep an eye out for the euphy with a CC, suza and lulu, I think another euphy will be doing it on the same day as us. (just so you dont get us confused) XD

Goodnight!

Hi! ^^ I don't mean to jump into other people's conversations, but if you're looking for a comprehensive list of Aussie con dates online, you can always check out ANN Australia's Convention Calender (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com.au/feature/2009-03-02). ^^

Have fun! ^^
