It looks like there's a good chance I could be going to Botcon this year. (Which is a big deal because I live in OH and it's all the way in CA and a plane ticket is like expensive for me) But last year was bad for me. I was so depressed. I didn't talk to anyone. Well I didn't know anyone either. But I want to make this year better.

Hey that's real cool.

Botcon 2005 was my first one, and I didn't know anyone either. I was totally new to the whole scene and didn't really know what to expect. I knew there would be people there who shared similar interests, however I'm usually shy about just going up to perfect strangers and making conversation - even in a setting like Botcon. I found it's real easy to make friends when you smile and just start off by saying "hi", and the rest will just happen on it's own. If you seem friendly and approachable you should have no problems. That's how I met my two good buddies in 2005, and we've been hanging out at every Botcon since then.

Well...

I did host a huge party last year at BotCon...probably will again this year.

Just keep an eye out for the announcement as we get closer.

Hey Sailor,

No need to feel depressed or alone my friend, here at Seibertron, we're family. Last years meet up was great and I look forward to seeing friends again and meeting new ones.

Need someone to hang with during Botcon? Feel free to kick it with me as I'll be going solo and always enjoy company.

Hey SD, haven't seen you around. I'm SC24! Whenever I change my name it will still have the 24.

I might be going too! It's driving distance from me. (5 hour drive though...)
