Thought I'd give yall an update since I don't normally do. Some may know, some may not.. but I've been homeless for the past 3 months just about, but... it hasn't all been bad for me. Getting out, and really bucking up, getting things done in life, it's felt nice. Not the homeless part LOL, but the progress I've made. I've been staying at a shelter, and during my time here, I've gotten some experience working in construction, I've gotten my diploma, and now I'm even going to college, starting June 15th. Ya boy is going into marine biology, (Jotaro was literally my inspiration, not even kidding) studyin fish an shit. Imagine that. And for those asking.. No, I didn't take student loans. Being homeless, I'm actually eligible for grants, and also getting a scholarship reward on account of my ahem... more than adequate GED scores. From homeless, straight to success in one big step. For once in my life I'm feeling like I'm actually doing something.

I just got back from MomoCon. I haven't been to an anime convention in years. This was my first time going alone so I was kind of worried about what to do. I ended up getting to talk with the voice actors of Stark and Fern from Frieren. Jordan Dash Cruze likes WWE so I asked him if Frieren signed up Stark for a WWE match against an arcane golem, what would his stage name be. He got really excited and said, "Big Starky" and Jill Harris said that Fern would be supportive of stark during the match but have no idea what's going on. I also talked to the English VA for Asuka from Evangelion for a good amount of time. I told her my childhood experience about hearing Asuka say a line in english and then rattle off some german, thinking it was so cool as a kid and how she was my favorite character in the show. She was happy about that and told me all these behind the scenes things that happened while voicing for the show. She signed a tumbler I bought at her counter and put in a quote on it too. She's really nice. Apart from seeing the Smash bros tourney and hitting up the arcade, I made a big point to FORCE myself to talk to people. It's bitterly against my introverted nature. But there I was, standing in line after line talking to VTubers. It was so very painful for me dragging my feet in fear of the next VTuber booth but I actually got used to it towards the end and clicked with some of the VTubers. For me, cons are a way for me to not fall into extreme introversion of not talking to strangers. I had a lot of fun this year.
