I'm sorry if there is a few mistakes in the recap today guys, I had to sort of hurry while doing this, 'cause my whole family is getting ready for my grandmas funeral tomorrow :(

Can you believe it that it's only 27 days until PAX!? I bought my plane ticket the other day, I have a hotel room looked after, and I should have a decent amount of money saved up before the end of the month, so I'm pretty much set for the greatest weekend of my life. This will be the first time I've ever traveled by myself, so that's another reason I'm really excited about it. Can't freaking wait to party with all you guys.

Nice recap. Seems like you're really looking forward to PAX. I, myself, have never been interested enough to asctually consider spending the money to go. Hope you have fun.

Bah! Should've somewhat mentioned before how possumwrangler and I were quasi-looking for other people to share our room and such . . . alas, I guess it may be too late for you . . . -_-'

@Funktastic: Ah you'll be able to find someone to share with for sure, I'm guessing there will be a lot of room moving anyway.

Hope you have a fantastic time at PAX. I shall be enjoying the beginning of term and lamenting my shortsightedness in procuring a pass. Be interesting to see how everything shakes out once PAX splits.

Thanks for the recaps.

Unfortunately PAX coincides with my first week back to college. Maybe next year...or after I graduate.

@Takeshi: By "room moving" I mean "people changing hotel rooms".

You'll enjoy PAX. There's pretty much no way NOT to.
